Beats Fit Pro Review - Long-Term - Are They Worth It? 

Thank you so much for these videos. Your style, production, and product knowledge are top-notch, and honestly I don't feel the need to watch any other review videos after this one. Keep it up!!

This is the most honest review I’ve seen on these. I’ve been conflicted between buying the airpods and the beats and never considered the fact that both would probably be dead in about 2-3 years of usage. Taking that into consideration I guess the beats are slightly more economical. Appreciate the tips on ear adjustments, thanks.

The slight twist back of the Fits Pro worked very well for me also! The sound improved significantly! Thanks for the suggestion👏🏽🙏🏽

The best review about how they work that I've found! and I have watched so many tik toks, youtube videos, and Instagram posts to see people's feedback on looks and quality. Thank you for this !!!

Great review. Thank you. Bought these today. They come later this week

Great review A have had two sets of Powerbeats pro Charging issues On first. One ear dead Second ones seem to work but yiu never know if they are charging right so I have to open up phone and ensure they are connected So great real review I have these now. Just got them They are great so far And your review of the button is of course spot on.

Great video. My son and I both have difficulty with pods fitting. So far our best we’re the older power beats that were Bluetooth but wired from ear to ear. Fit great and held up for nearly 3 years of my sons fidgeting and picking before the sheath was completely gone. That says a lot!!

Best review of this product. 🙏🏼

Thank you for the review! I've been doing a bit of research for a good earbud that will stay in my ears for when I am running or working out.

Thanks for the great review. I originally found the sound of these quite disappointing, and not nearly as good as my 2nd gen AirPods. Your advice on twisting the tip made a huge improvement, and saved me a return trip to Best Buy!

I was so confused on the whole ANC and TRANSPARENCY mode until you explained it best way possible. Thank You.

Great review. I really appreciated your review of the PowerBeats Pro and wished I had seen if BEFORE I purchased...two sets! I'm having the same problems with both sets (mine and wifey's) that you bring up in your PowerBeats Pro review. So, I'm shopping around but very skeptical of the Beats Fit Pro particularly because of the case. I would really like to hear a followup review regarding charging before I buy. Thanks again.

OMG I loved this review!!!!! You’re so charismatic! I love the content!!!! These particular headphone hurt my ear with the wing it’s got after 30-45mins so I use them sporadically. I go with the Beats Studio 3 for work outs outside and AirPods Pro/Beats Studio Buds for work from home and everyday music/video watching (like right now) lol I’m actually using the Beats Studio buds (white) Overall, thank you for this! **subscribed af**

had mine about a year. charging and battery are still perfect. the only issue is I have very stupid shaped ears as well and these fall out (not as immediately as my partner’s airpods) often. into the sink, off a balcony once, at the beach in the sea foam once, changing my top, hugging my nephews, bending over to leash my dog.. a lot. and they’ve always survived! for some reason the left stays in much better and as a result 80% of the time I listen on one side. (also for background I have c-ptsd and I listen to some kind of noise all day. podcasts, lectures, books, youtube etc) my ears do get sore (the right side get suuper sore) but I think that’s expected although my family never has any earbud related pain even when at work on zoom all day so it may be another weird shaped ear thing. I appreciate this thorough review and if anyone has any tips (lol) or accessory recommendations to keep mine in, i’d appreciate a link. i’ve tried the little silicone sleeves (which work well when brand new but never stay sticky or matte enough) and those awful triple bulb tip replacements meant to bury them in deeper so they are less weighted to fall out I think. my ears are way too small and the headphone sits outside my ear entirely. i’m willing to give something a shot I live in these things. thanks!

Thanks for the honest review. Watching this review in 2024 & I think its still pretty valid. I've owned a pair of Powerbeats pros for the last 1.5 yrs and while I love the fit & sound quality - the charging case's reliability is a hit or miss. Its a 50-50 chance every time I hit the gym that one of them didn't connected properly hence didn't charge at all. I'm getting the Beats Fit Pro instead of the obligatory Airpods Pro because those never stay in my ears during workouts. Besides the Fit Pros are on on a reduced price (at EUR 129) so I think offer better value than the Airpods. I hope these won't be plagued with the same charging issue as the Powerbeats (fingers crossed). Wish they'd make the case smaller - I think its unnecessarily large.

I've had the BFP for about 9 months and I mainly use them for running and in the gym. I find them to be fine for these purposes but you are right about the case. One other thing is that it's missing wireless charging which should be standard in a product of this price. The running reviews that I've seen rate the Jabra Elite 7 and Jaybirds Vista 2 higher than the Beats Fit Pro. Those alternatives are $100. But the Jaybirds were $200 when the Beats Fit Pro launched. Right now I'd buy the Jaybirds, hands down. I was hoping to get more than 2-3 years out of these but I should probably get a backup. You can program them to do volume up and down using press/hold. I see these can be purchased refurbished so I don't know that they can't be fixed.

Fantastic! 👏🏼

Thanks for the in-depth review video. I was on the fence about buying the BFP. After you mentioned that you were still using decent headphones from 15+ years back that you got for $50 and talked about the certain waste that will result in the future in buying such expensive products, you reminded me about the pitfalls of consumerism…and now I’m on the fence about getting any earphones or headphones at all. LoL

Totally agree with you! I have been using this from a week now and till now these are the best fitting earbuds for Gym. Many people reported issues with ear pain especially with the right bud......I hope they try some fitting techniques like you mentioned......driving it away from the face. ANC is better than XM3's that I own.....I can't hear the songs they play in the Gym's surround speaker :) But I can hear my thumping in the treadmill and also breathing....maybe subconsciously I wish it had a hold and release for transparency mode like Sony's cuz if someone is trying to talk to me in the gym I need to either remove the bud or change the mode manually.

I’ve tried 3 different headphones in the last 3 days. One of those three was the Powerbeats pro… as the same as you, I did not like them at all and healed a grudge against beats… but after seeing your review I’m gonna try the Beats Fit Pro out tomorrow! Thank you 🙏

don't know if you have already found this out, or if a comment brings this up, but if you can forego the noise cancelling control option you can program volume on right and left buttons to be up on right down on left

Volume controls can be activated in settings - or you can just ask Siri…. Also the button is on the bottom of the little b - it’s not the whole headphone. If you hold it above the b you can apply pressure without activating it.

Good video I would like to see a test of the Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro and Edifier Neo Buds Pro compared to these Beats Fit Pro 🙏🏽

Does the white colour attract dirt and eventually turns yellower or dirtier? didnt see it in the video clips which made me ask dk if i should go with the black or white. Btw great review

My Powerbeats Pros left earpiece is dying and disconnecting at 50% and tried everything to fix em. Thinking of buying these, i use my beats daily and i really love them but cannot go further with the disconnecting issue.

OK I have had the fit Pros about 2 weeks maybe 3 and in terms of connectivity I have only one issue. I actually use my buds all day long, with my phone and then when home use them with my MacBookPro. They paired instantly to both and I can swith them to my MacBook with one click of the trackpad, however I find a little annoying that they will automatically change toi the iPhone if I get a call or say, a timer I set goes off, but will not turn back to the MacBook if I have some audio source going, I have to do that manually, I wish I would switch so I don't even have to think about it. There is something very cool that I however don't consciously use and that's spacial audio, what I find disturbing is that I discovered it when the buds decided to give me spatial audio, and then wen't away randomly, again, the effect is just too cool, but it could be a little creepy when you don't expect it

I used to wear my beats fit pro all day after having my air pods pro for about 2 years, and the sound quality on the beats were a step above the air pods. The comfort level of the air pods pro were significant by comparison. I agree on the case being so fragile too. Considering there is very little protection options for the beats I think the better of the two will be the air pods pro.

Might consider this since we have the same "ear problem"

Thanks for the review! Can I check how's the rubber material of the earphones holding up? I've always had concerns with soft touch / rubbery textures as they melt / get funky real quickly here in South East Asia where it's always hot and humid. Do you get lint and fine hair that's difficult to remove?

Summary @ 16:45 Btw you should be able to configure a volume control (long press right button to up the volume, long press left to turn down the volume) instead of switching through the ANC modes...

Overall great review BUT as someone who has been using the Powerbeats pros for about 18 months, I only MILDLY understand the frustration with the charging issue, personally I found as long as I take an extra 5 seconds to make sure they’re connected in the case I don’t have any problems with them, and the fact that I literally wear them all day (and don’t even realize they’re there most of the time) and get 9 hrs out of them makes any little issue with the charging irrelevant to me. I simply wipe the sensors off on the headphones and the case each time before I put them in to charge and I’ve never had another issue after the one time the right headphone didn’t charge overnight. I am looking for something smaller with ANC so I am considering the FBP but I am also considering the AirPods Pro’s. The issue I am going to have is everything is going to PALE IN COMPARISON to the Powerbeats Pro’s in terms of battery life which is extremely important to me as someone who wears them ALL DAY!

I had planned on wearing wireless earbuds under earmuffs. Does this arrangement not work cause of the metal in the earmuffs? They do have some earbuds are small with a small wire popping out that goes around the back of your neck. Which is semi-wireless. I had wanted wireless earbuds also because of noise cancelling. So I could have earmuffs, but then noise cancelling on top of that. I have been looking at the Beats Fit Pro and the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3.

They do have volume control you just have to turn it on in Bluetooth settings for the beats and then hold down either button

Saw both of your videos and i was waiting for that charging failure hahahaha seems they work fine

They better than the beats studio buds, and i dont like any of the older beats heavy bass….but too each their own. They are an updated and upgraded version of beats studio buds. Basically if you compare it between the other previous model- they have better anc, passive mode and normal mode. That’s the difference too is case size- the studio buds look like the airpods slightly bigger not as big as those though. But i do wish you the best thanks 🙏 for the feed back im buying the beats solo pro so i cant get the earbuds plus i have the studio buds. Actually coming from owning alot of beats over time- and Skullcandy. I like beats a tad more even though i had more problems with beats overall. Also i slightly a beats fan. And i swear alot of ppl love the powerbeats. I think i like beats now that apple owns them because i didnt like my solos hd or 2. Almost killed the beats for me till i couldnt afford the AirPods pros so i got the beats studio buds instead of the airpods because they were only 150 dollars. Verus 250 or whatever. Than they released the fit pros right after i had my studio buds for like a month

I have been using my Jaybird X3’s for years. What is awesome about the Beats Fit Pro is that the locked in EQ on the Beats are identical to how I have my X3’s custom EQ. I got lucky and guess the people in charge of the sound have the same listening preference as I do. Spatial Audio is horrible for most of my music however…Spatialized Audio sounds phenomenal when listening to soundtracks. The Beats Fit Pro are now my go to buds for the gym. One complaint is that I have a larger ear hole on the right and when I get sweaty I do have to kind of push the earbud back in a little…they are not falling out but a little irritating. I ordered some “Truegrip pro two-220-c” Comply tips that fit the Beats Fit Pro so I hope that helps with keeping the earbuds in my ear better and more snug. I am blown away with the sound quality of these earbuds. 😎

I have powerbeats pro since 2019, their batteries gave up on life a month ago (they last for about 20 minutes with moderate volume), so I am about to go shopping. Hearing you poopoo on them so much absolutely breaks my heart, I always found them superior in sound among all earbuds (including airpods) and they never let me down or fell out of my ears. 5 years of extensive use (we are talking about never leaving my house without them, they even have a dedicated pocket in my bag) and they still work. This says everything about powerbeats pro that anyone should know. They have been dropped, submerged, the stickers came off but they proved to be indestructible.

who is that song in your background 🔥🔥? listening to your video with my BPF. life-long Jabra Elite series user..still my favorites, but… spatial audio and deep rich bass (imo) on these Beats Pro Fit i recently purchased worth every penny. agree with inconvenience of “Hey, Siri” to control volume🤷🏾‍♂️. agree with the case, too. u can do better, apple. background music bro🔥🔥worth entire video. /Bklyn👑

You can go into settings, too beats fit pro settings and program your beats fit pro, too Volume up, Volume down.

Mine have literally been dropped into the depths of a car seat with multiple adjustments to the seat over a couple months and spat out the back… the case WILL NOT BREAK

Great review. EU has mandated USB for electronics charging. it will be the defacto standard

Well, I have said some nice things about the Fit Pros, now I have a quedstion for viewers. Has anyone had fit (no pun) ment problems or any adverse reactions to these and even other Beats ear buds? Since I had the "untrue wireless" Powerbeats, I found my ear to have a bit of inflamation, with the Powerbeats I thought it was due to the wire having snagged on my backpack, which is one of the reasons I finally pulled the trigger on true wireless buds, but as I swiched to the Beats Fit Pros my left ear was very unhappy making me think that I was actually having an allergic reaction to the materials used. right now I'm letting my ear heal and will try the Fit Pros again to see if it is indeed a material based allergy or just caused by injury from the powerbeats pulling on my ear. Anyone experience a disagreement (allergy) with the Fit Pros?

I just switched to the Beats Fit Pro's from Powerbeats Pro's, and I am so much happier. No more draining while in the case, no more connectivity issues, etc. I almost took a hammer to my Powerbeats. 🤣

You really need to test the mike in a noisy environment. Most ear buds will work just fine in a quiet room. It's really the most important function of all! These are used mostly with phones after all.

How far can you go from your phone before it disconnected? 🤔 and if you turn off the extra features will the battery last longer? Because you can turn them off and on as needed to

I have been using the Beats fit pro for a few weeks and I like them better than the Airpod pro ear buds. The Beats stay in place better and the battery life is longer.

You should get Comply tip for the Beat Fit Pros

He hopefully u answer this question how is the transparency compared to airmpods pro

Can this buds use either left or right individually for phone calls?

I know this may be late, but I am just seeing this video. You all know if the fit is the only real win for these over airpods pros, you know they sell the little rubber ear holders so airpods fit just like these?

Btw your weight scale is out of order both pods weight around 0.55 g

You lost me when you said that the case was thin/fragile. I just got these ear buds. The case is great AND strong. I could throw it across the room and not be phased. Nothing to worry about when it comes to the case.

Sound is amazing compared to AirPods Pro. And mine can control the volume.😅 Also you start feeling the pain at about 1h30 or 2hrs.

what’s user error

My son bought me the beats fit pro for Christmas and the left one stopped working completely after just about 2 months.. Nothing I have done has fixed it. Also they aren't very loud. Totally disappointed feel awful I asked my son to buy them for me. Total waste of money.

The Wingtips will break 😑 for heavy users. Just fyi

You are correct. The power beats pro were a waste for me. the left stopped working and apple charged me $100 to fix. I trashed them and said never again. even all my cheap $40 mpow earbuds still work. crazy

I thought beats is for basshead im suprised that you said it has little bass

I want a refund on my powerbeats terrible…. But i love my beat fit pros

Beats is a ripoff brand Will never ever buy anything from Beats
