That's compared to around 4.5 hours for the AirPods Pro with noise canceling on and 5 with it off (the AirPods 3 also are rated for up to 6 hours but they don't have active noise canceling). That's not a big deal in my opinion, but you might disagree.īattery life is rated at up to 6 hours with noise canceling on and 7 hours with it off at moderate volume levels. However, it's missing the wireless or MagSafe charging found in AirPods Pro and AirPods 3 cases.

In a bit of a nod to Android users, the case charges via USB-C not Lightning. The case for the Fit Pro isn't quite as small as the one for the AirPods Pro or even the Beats Studio Buds, but it's still compact and much smaller than Powerbeats Pro's case. The one big complaint about the Powerbeats Pro is their huge case. I'm a little surprised Beats didn't do red for launch, but I'm sure you'll see more colors next year.īefore I get into features and performance, I just have a few more comments about the design. They fit my ears really well and come in four color options - white, lavender, gray and black. The buds are lightweight, weighing 5.6 grams each and are IPX4 water-resistant, which means they're splash-proof (same as the AirPods Pro and AirPods 3). You can also issue other voice commands without touching a button. These also have always-on Hey Siri so you can raise and lower volume just by asking Apple's voice assistant. You can also program the long press to be volume controls on the buds themselves, a feature a lot of people have been asking for on the AirPods - and maybe one we'll see migrating to those models now that Beats has debuted it to the Appleverse. You use it to control music playback and answer and end calls - and a long press switches between noise-canceling and transparency modes. The case for the Fit Pro (middle) is a nice compromise between the gigantic Powerbeats Pro (left) and the smaller Studio Buds (right). What's nice about it is that because it's an extension of the wingtip, it has a soft-to-the-touch finish and a little bit of grip to it. I much prefer this design to that of the Powerbeats Pro.īeats earbuds have always had a physical control button - which I like - and the Fit Pros also have one. The buds fit comfortably and securely in my ears and never felt like they would slip out, even when I ran with them (I never lost the good seal I had with the ear tips).

You can't replace it as far as I can tell but it does seem durable and it's made of firm but pliable silicone rubber that's soft to the touch. But what's interesting with the Fit Pro is that it's a one-size-fits-all wingtip that's been integrated into the design. Most of the time those wingtips - or sports fins as they're sometimes called - are removable and often come in different sizes. I personally prefer my sports buds to have a wingtip that fits into the inside of your ear rather than wrap around the outside of it.

I can't say I ever loved the Powerbeats Pro's design but a lot of people do because the ear hook gives you a feeling of security that your buds aren't going to fall off your head. Take Beats iconic Powerbeats Pro sports buds with its big ear hook and shrink it down. The concept behind the Fit Pro is pretty simple. The Beats Fit Pro are officially debuting today, but if they look familiar, it's because they've leaked twice in the past few weeks - first during an iOS update and more recently, when Kim Kardashian was spotted wearing them.
