Powerbeats Pro

$150 at Woot

The Powerbeats Pro are a pair of high-performance wireless earphones designed for fitness enthusiasts and active individuals who demand superior sound quality and a secure, comfortable fit. The earbuds boast an impressive set of features that make them stand out from other wireless earphones on the market.

We rated these earbuds 8 out of 10 when we tested these out in 2020. Aside from the usual high pricetag of $200 and slightly bulky charging case, they offer better sound than AirPods. You get richer sound, better battery life and a design that won’t fall out of your ears. The phone call quality of these earbuds is excellent, and physical buttons for music playback control are great for Android users as well.

With just a 5-minute charge, you get 1.5 hours of playback when battery is low. These earbuds offer up to 9 hours of listening time and more than 24 hours with the charging case. A reinforced design for sweat and water resistance keeps these earbuds comfortable even during tough workouts or running.
