Beats (Apple) - Powerbeats2 Wireless Earbuds

I tend to lean on ones with loops that go over the ear because my ear holes are small, too. I struggle with buds because they tend to fall out. Last gen Powerbeats work pretty good although they’re noise isolating not noise cancelling, but I hear the current gen is noise cancelling. Epic Air Sport by JLab is pretty good and are noise cancelling I have QC ultras but don’t like the bud format. You may want to look at the new Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. I don’t own them and they’re not noise cancelling but they’re more like an ear cuff and obviate the conversation about ear opening size

I like the PowerBeats! They stay charged for up to 12 hours I believe and plenty long for a marathon. I know everyone is saying to run without earphones but if you hit a wall or start to overthink/need to dig deep, the music can be a nice distraction. What I like to do is have my earphones in and something playing but increase and decrease the volume depending on the crowd and my mental state.

I had them for almost five years. They went through the washer and dryer several times—never an issue. Sadly, now the left bud isn’t working as well anymore and is making a weird noise. I'm desperately searching for another pair I’ll love for running but haven’t found one yet. I tried the new Powerbeats 2 (they sucked) and am currently trying the Beats Fit Pro. I do like them, but after 50 minutes of running, my ears start to hurt due to the wingtip. The new Jabra Elite 8 didn’t work for me like the 75T did—they didn’t stay in place, and I feel like they created more of that vacuum feeling in my ear canals. So...PLEASE ...SUGGESTIONS? I'm looking at the Soundcore Sport X20, but it seems like they stop working after a few months from some reviews? I can't use open ear ones, since I need to block the noise from the gym when running on the treadmill. Treadmill runners - please help.

Powerbeats. Wireless with ear hooks so I don’t worry about losing them.

My Beats Fit Pros are starting to fall apart at the wing tips. I love them but if they're not slated for an upgrade next year then I'm jumping on the Power Beats 2 that are due to release.

Used these earbuds for years and in my experience all dislodges are because my hair got tangled in the hooks

Get something with a clip, like the Beats Powerbeats 2, or the Moondrop Pill.

I'm returning mine also. The sound is clean, and the mic is good yes. The noise cancelling isnt the best, and there isn't really any bass that I can feel, so it don't really live up to it's name Powerbeats. I'm just going to ditch earbuds because they make my ears sore after wearing them for a short while.

love my powerbeats 2. noise cancelling is really good, transparent is good, and great for working out without them falling off

I have Powerbeats 2 & 3, beat fit pro, Powerbeats pro (x2), AirPod Pro 1 & 2 and an old pair of beat solo 2 I’ve spent my fair share and this doesn’t count all the versions I have given as gifts. Just got the Powerbeats Pro2 yesterday (as a gift) and as I sit here typing this I’m also thinking how can I tell my gf that they suck and I want to return and just get another pair of AirPod Pro2. It’s funny Apple states same chip but yet PBP2 have less features than AirPod Pro2. Isn’t hearing loss still important? And I’m sorry but as weird as this sounds the AirPod pro2 sounds better. The shape is not great either. The first gen fit great shape wise. They seemed to lock into the shape of my ear and they stayed put. These don’t move around (yet) but they feel loose and for some reason when playing a song they keep stopping. I’ve triple checked and my phone screen is facing outward. A quick press of the button and song picks up where it stopped but three times while playing one song. Again phone in loose shorts side pocket screen outward. I looked forward to these because I liked the thought of the heart sensor built in but very disappointed.

Powerbeats or my AirPods

If it’s for the gym, I would look into the new PowerBeats that goes around and in the ear. They stay in better with physical activity.

You’re welcome man. I would have recommended the new Powerbeats but they took a step back in sound quality imo, a lot of people think fit pro sounds better and I agree, I’ve tested both back to back. The fit pro won’t let you down

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.

Surprised more people don’t use these. I have the non-pro Powerbeats which are wireless, but the two buds are connected by wire. They’ve never bothered me with glasses.

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.

I like anker soundcore sport. They wrap around and have a good battery life. Decent noise transparency.  A lot of folks love their aftershokz.  Hates the beats sport with passion.  I have to use ear buds that wrap around the ears. 

One of them would randomly not charge in the case and would reverse charge. They would also drop connection with my garmin at least once per run. 

I wore and still have my Beats by Dre PowerBeats headphones with the ear hooks! I tucked them in my spi belt before hand ☺️ FWIW I didn’t even listen to music for the first 18 miles because of the crowds, but do whats best for you

Love the PowerBeats!!!

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