Beats (Apple) - Powerbeats 4

Powerbeats (Renewed). $100. Sure, beats are popular, but I don’t like them for that reason. Tried dozens and dozens of earbuds over the years from major and cheap brands and couldn’t find one that had all the right qualities. I wanted a good fit that didn’t dislodge during exercise, good sound, good battery life, easy wireless connection, and something that wasn’t overly awkward in appearance or wear. Despite the wireless “cord” version now being discontinued you can still get them used which I have done to have a spare pair and they work fantastic. Only drawback is the little earbuds themselves can get lost at times but you can buy spare replacements for a few bucks. Otherwise these last for days, fit basically anyone’s ears well, and are excellent for an active person. Connection is fast and easy to phones and they have a dedicated menu in Apple devices + findmy so you don’t lose them. Sound is full, loud, and plenty of bass for those who enjoy it. Definitely a buy4life for me. I thought I’d want the fully uncorded version, but the little neck cord helps me keep from losing/dropping them which is great [Powerbeats](https://a.co/d/5kv4k4j)

I think this is very dependent on your ear shape and what fits you best. I use Powerbeats, I find that even if I knock them accidentally and they come loose, the hooks over the ears help keep them on long enough for me to fix them. If it's not too hot you can also put a headband over your ears to hold them in.

Nice to see the beats fanboys down voting you. I'm literally here looking to replace my powerbeats because of the same issue you had. They are the most aggravating ear buds I have ever owned.

I disagree. They fit in the sense they didn’t fall out but they were a bit too big and I couldn’t wear more than an hour unlike my Powerbeats. Their fatal flaw was the wingtip cracking on just about every pair. And since it was integral. There was no fix for it

I wonder if they’ve solved the wing tip cracking issue

Shokz are open ear headphones and therefore, sound quality will not be as good as in ear earphones or over the ear headphones. If you must have your ears open to listen to the external/surrounding sounds, then get Shokz. If you are looking for excellent sound quality and want to close the world around you and surround yourself with sound, then get earphones with a hook, so that they can’t keep falling off your ear. I have several and my favorite are Powerbeats Pro (the original/first version) and the Powerbeats 4 (wires connecting both earphones) which have lasted me for a few years. Be a guinea-pig and test the new Powerbeats Pro 2s.

I’ve been using the Powerbeats for a long time and I like them a lot. They have a loop over the ear and they’re comfortable to wear.

When I’m running, I love to use my power beats. They stay in my ear, and they are very comfortable.
