These are also discounted right now, going for $170 instead of $200 on Amazon.

Stable, comfortable fit throughout the day

Stability matters when you have your earbuds on while walking, running, and working out. Powerbeats Fit actually fit really well, and offer all-day comfort to support longer listening sessions. These feature wingtips that lock into your ear, then stay exactly in place until you’re ready to take the buds off. The design is also universal, which means it can fit all ear shapes and sizes well.

Once the buds are in, you’ll enjoy well-balanced, rich audio for songs, podcasts, YouTube videos, and everything else you’d like to listen to. You can choose how you want your sound to reach you via two listening modes; Active Noise Cancelation and Transparency. The ANC mode offers a deeply immersive experience by blocking all the unnecessary external sounds. Transparency does the opposite by letting some ambient sounds in to keep you aware of your surroundings. These two make the buds ideal for almost every type of situation/environment, from running on a treadmill at home to group fitness classes.

There’s support for Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking, which creates a 360-degree, theatre-like surround sound experience. On-device controls let you take calls, manage music, adjust volume, and more directly using the buds instead of relying on your phone every time.

Powerbeats Fit are also compatible with both Android and Apple devices, so pairing won’t be an issue. Some advanced features are exclusive to Apple users, but those with Android devices won’t really miss out on a lot. The overall experience is taken even further with the IPX4 water resistance. With this, you won’t have to take the buds off when it starts pouring or when a workout has you all sweaty in the gym.

Each bud gets you around seven hours of listening on a single charge. The charging case extends that to 30 hours, so you can easily go a few days without plugging them in. And speaking of the case, it’s also around 17% smaller than its predecessor, which makes it incredibly easy to take your buds with you on the go.

The Beats Powerbeats Fit earbuds are currently discounted by 15% on Amazon, which drops their price to just $170. The offer applies to all colors, so you have the option to pick whichever goes with your aesthetics the best. Just keep in mind that popular colors like gray and black are likely to sell out sooner. The overall discount also likely won’t last long, so it’s best to place an order quickly – while it’s available.
