Awesome Tips Beats Fit Pro review: Goodnight, AirPods Pro?
With nearly all the features of the AirPods Pro, including Apple’s H1 chip and noise canceling, the new $200 Beats Fit Pro have integrated wingtips that keep the buds securely in your ears for sporting activities. They also deliver strong sound and better battery life. How much better are they than Powerbeats Pro? And is there any reason remaining to get the AirPods Pro? CNET’s David Carnoy discusses all that and how the Fit Pro compare to the Beats Studio Buds.

Reviews donโt get any better. Thank you for such a thorough breakdown of these earbuds.
I just lost my power Beats Pros and Iโm thinking of getting these but idk are they better
Under ANC you only talked about tips not how well these cancel out noice.
Would you recommend these beats fit pro over AirPods Pro 2? I am getting this at least 100 euros cheaper. I am glued into the the Apple ecosystem completely. However, want to be sure if itโs worth the extra 100 bucks for AirPods Pro. Thanks for a great and useful review, I have tried them and they sound great and for sure and fit well for a workout session.
I've been using this for a week and one thing that i noticed was that you have to press really good the buttons on the buds to skip pause etc. Is it just me or is this normal?
No wireless charging on a case that big? I was all in until that.
These are great headphones, but I've ordered 2 pairs and they both have the same hissing/rattling the left bud, and there are many threads on MacRumors, Apple Support, and Reddit where people are experiencing the same issue. I'm going to return and try a third pair (fingers crossed) but I just wanted to point out this issue to other viewers. All the good reviews of these headphones are true, but they don't address this potential issue.
I just returned my AirPods Pro and got this ones. Waaaaay better
Great review
Heck no,
I returned my Beats fit pro.
The sound is mediocre.
The fit is painful after about 15 minutes.
And they don't stay in place during exercise.
Hardly any bass on these just like my airpod pros but they stay in my ears at the gym and that's what I needed them for.
these are my go to at the gym, I prefer these over airpods.
195,000 emails?! How? Iโm shocked lol
This guy changing tips is fing stupid no one has tips laying around like that and testing them with those no actual customer would use it that way , test it the way it is so that we can get a actual test
I can't identify with the marketing of this product; so I can't justify the price .
Thanks for the review. LOVE the view and colors of the sky from your rooftop. I'm looking at these and the NEW Senheiser Momentum 3's. Which do you prefer?
I have the previous generation. They don't fall of at the gym. What are these like?
What are the after market ear tips called that you mentioned?
What size should i get the sennheiser tips if i use large OEM tips? Thanks!
worlds most painful earbuds
call quality is what i suffer most from powerbeats pro, have to always remove them. the example here is apt.
Just picked these up on sale today for $160 hopefully these are worth it as an android user who needs a set for the gym.
Using the liberty 3 pro and Sennheiser MTW3s for daily drivers.
At this point you can't miss what you never had so unless you switch between both iOS and Android it's moot point tbh. These sound better then the airpods. I had airpod pros because of those features not because I loved the sound when I had an iPhone.
i get money in various parks ( calisthenics ) plus hit the steel from time to time but i still went with Beats Studio ๐๐ฝ buds ( red )
probably will still get these ( Lavender ! just cause )
I cant believe its normal thing that Beats Fit Pro are useless for outside phone calls. I was always able to making calls while walking or riding a bike. With BFP iys impossible. The person on the other end of the line constantly says that they hear a tremendous amount of background noise being picked up by the microphone. When I tried record a voice memo I can hear the problem. Reset, update, Changing ANC setup or rotating buds in my year dont change anything. Any ideas?
Anyone have feedback on how well these work with a windows PC? I want these for working out (iPhone) but also to hop on zoom meetings for work (windows of).
Bro has 195000 unread emails ๐๐๐
Just picked up a pair for $125 brand new. Hope I did alright.
I use the memory foam medium tips from the sony wf-1000 xm4 on my beats fit pro
These are my favorite buds. The old around the ear band irritated my ear, and were a problem wearing glasses. These sound great and the Bose-style wingtips lock them in the ear securely. And comfortably.
I didn't know I could find a perfect review, yet here we are. Well done, this had every little piece of information I needed to make a choice between the Airpods Pro, Beats Fit Pro, and the new WF-1000XM's
Amazing review
These work best with Apple Music, sounds different on spotify
I loved these headphones, but unfortunately they didnโt fit my ears well. They started hurting so bad I had to return them. The noise canceling and sound quality was very good though!
Iโm switching my AirPods Pro for these. Iโm tired of my AirPods falling out of my ears all the time. I canโt wait to try these out when they come in the mail today.
Good review, very thorough on the details that matter. ๐
Good review! Why they couldn't just make that purple version the same purple as the purple iPhone and iPad is beyond me. From what I can tell it's more pink than purple which is a big meh for me. Grey ones it is then.
This buds are not worth the money…. its been disaster experience for me ,honestly i got better experience with 35 $ buds
Harriest hand model EVER!
I miss the CNET Apply Byte ๐ญ
The volume is way too low i can barely hear it. Cant find a way to fix it
Which are better for workouts like running or weightlifting?
The studio buds transparency mode sucks !!
I straddle the line between Apple and Android so feels like these are the perfect middle ground. Thanks for the review!
