What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Ear hooks with flexible nickel-titanium wire lock the earbuds in place during intense movement and workouts
- Physical volume buttons and multi-function controls on both earbuds provide reliable tactile feedback
- Battery lasts 8-10 hours per charge with additional charges in the case, roughly double competing models
Reviewers push back
- Active noise cancellation blocks steady noise but allows dialogue, typing, and machinery through more than competitors
- Charging case remains bulky and fits gym bags better than pockets despite size reduction
- Ear tip selection may not seal properly for all ear canal shapes, affecting sound and isolation
Reviewers agree the Powerbeats Pro 2 are excellent workout earbuds with superior fit and sound, though noise cancellation trails competitors.
One reviewer found the ear hooks caused discomfort on the back of the ear during extended wear, while others praised all-day comfort
