the two main thing I want to is sound quality and noise cancellation. I tried the airpods pro 2 and the noise cancellation is amazing. I was wondering if the beats fit pro comes close to the noise cancellation of app2

To me Power Beats Pros are still way behind than the AirPods Pros

• ANC is not as good as AirPods Pros 👎🏾

• Wireless Charging without the Magsafe 👎🏾 and doesn't charge with Apple Watch Charger.

• Automatic Switching between Apple Devices not there, a feature all Apple users live 👎🏾

• No conversation awareness like AirPods Pros 👎🏾

• Still Heavier than AirPods Pros 👎🏾

• No iPV6 👎🏾

• Heart rate to me is a gimmick and eats battery life. 👎🏾

Don't expect an upgrade after five years to be so underwhelming. I'm disappointed.

I wanted to put together a detailed feature comparison of Powerbeats Pro 2 vs Beats Fit Pro vs AirPods 4 (ANC) vs AirPods Pro 2. I've regularly used all of these modes except AirPods 4 (ANC).

I don't want to say too much about sound quality and ANC of Powerbeats Pro 2 just yet because I'm still getting used to how they fit. I remember hating the Beats Fit Pro for about a month until I got used to them, and I now love them. I will say that Powerbeats Pro 2 sounds good and has good ANC with a good seal, but the sound quality is just a bit muddier and the mids/highs are a bit harsher/sharper than I'd prefer. AirPods Pro 2 has noticeably better sound quality and ANC than either the Beats Fit Pro or Powerbeats Pro 2.

Beats Fit Pro, Powerbeats Pro 2, AirPods 4 (ANC), and AirPods Pro 2 all support the following features:

• Noise Control: ANC + Transparency

• Personalized Spatial Audio with Dynamic Head Tracking + Spatialize Stereo

• One Touch Pairing

• Automatic Switching between Apple devices

• Ear Tip Fit Test

• Headphone Accommodations

• Automatic Ear Detection for auto play/pause

• Hands free "Hey Siri"

• Announce Notifications

Exclusive to AirPods Pro 2, Powerbeats Pro 2, and AirPods 4 (ANC):

• Low latency lossless audio with Apple Vision Pro

• Hands free "Siri"

• "Case sounds" - While the Powerbeats Pro 2 case doesn't have a speaker, it will play certain "case sounds" through the earbuds. Interestingly enough, these sounds appear to be the same as the ones developed for Beats Solo Buds, not the ones AirPods use

• Qi wireless charging

Exclusive to AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 (ANC):

• Adaptive Audio

• Personalized Volume

• Conversation Awareness

• Head Gestures to respond to notifications

• Apple Watch Charging

• Activation Lock/Lost Mode

• Speaker on case for Find My

AirPods Pro 2 Exclusive Features:

• Hearing Protection

• Hearing Test/Hearing Aid functionality

• MagSafe charging

• Precision Find My

Powerbeats Pro 2 Exclusive Features:

• Heart rate Monitoring

• Best battery life (8 hours with ANC on, 36 hours total with case)

• Physical volume buttons

Conclusion:

Beats Fit Pro, Powerbeats Pro 2, AirPods 4 (ANC), and AirPods Pro 2 all provide a good experience for Apple users, IF the comfort/fit works for you. I'm confident that the vast majority of Apple users will be able to find at least one of these models where the fit/comfort works for you and you are reasonably satisfied with the sound quality, noise control, and overall feature set. AirPods Pro 2 definitively provides the best sound quality, noise control, and overall feature set for Apple users, IF the comfort and fit works for you.

I'm disappointed the Powerbeats Pro 2 currently lacks a bunch of features that even AirPods 4 (ANC) has, but I'm cautiously optimistic these features (Adaptive Audio, Personalized Volume, Conversation Awareness, Head Gestures) will be added eventually in a future firmware update. If Apple can add these features and slightly tweak the sound signature to make the mids/highs a little less harsh/sharp, the Powerbeats Pro 2 will be basically everything I hoped they could be.

I'm still desperately hoping we get Beats Fit Pro 2 with the H2 chip this fall, as I currently prefer the wingtip design over the ear hook design. Perhaps Beats Fit Pro 2 could launch day 1 with support for Adaptive Audio, Personalized Volume, Conversation Awareness, and Head Gestures, at which point Powerbeats Pro 2 would receive a firmware update that adds these features. This is the best case scenario that I think is realistic.

I’ve just purchased the new AirPods Pro 3, and own the original Powerbeats Pro. I use both for the gym, but primarily the AirPods due to noise cancellation.

I’m wondering if I should’ve purchased the new Powerbeats instead. I love the bass-heavy sound of the AirPods, and was wondering how the new Powerbeats compare?

Nice to see a smaller case size but the general vibe definitely seems to be that these are just BFP with a smaller case and better ear tips.

I hope you are well and safe. Apologies for my English

So I owned AirPods Pro 2, but I lost them. Got another pair, but Amazon lost the parcel.

I work out a lot. Almost every day. AirPods Pro 2 were fine but often fell off my ears.

I am thinking, shall I buy AirPods Pro 2 for the third time or give a chance PowerBeats Pro

I know PoweBeats Pro do not have ANC but they are perfect for the gym and running.

I also own AirPods Max(they have ANC etc), and I did a few workouts with them, but I have heard I should not use them for working out

What would you do if you were me?
