Protective Case for Beats Fit Pro Case Cover with Clip, Silicone Case Keychain Compatible with Studio Buds Protector Cover Keyring Shockproof Front LED Visible (Blue)

Product Information

On the list: ANC, adaptive EQ, announced messages with Siri, audio share, automatic switching, control customization, Ear Tip Fit Test, EQ, Find My support, “Hey Siri” voice activation, Live Listen, Personalized Spatial Audio, and Transparency mode. Adaptive Transparency is another new feature introduced on the AirPods Pro 2 that greatly increases awareness of surroundings.

The push-button controls are customisable in the settings or Beats app, while the handy battery status notifications are available on both platforms. The earbuds have a conventional silicone tip that creates a good seal and offers some isolation, while the active noise-cancelling has no impact on the sound quality.Externally, they look pretty similar to the first generation, but battery life has been increased to offer 6 hours on a single charge from the earbuds and a further 30 hours from the wireless charging case. Beats Fit Pro also pause and resume playback when you remove one of your earbuds, or stop playback – and won't resume – when you remove both. Although the noise cancelling on the cheaper Studio Buds is adequate, I found that Beats Fit Pro offered a notable improvement.

And, unfortunately, the battery cannot be replaced, ultimately making them disposable and losing a star. Both models have extensive feature sets that elevate the audio experience from a iPhone and MacBook.

People we spoke to said we sounded relatively clear, though the volume was a bit softer than when we used speakerphone. Our only complaint is the multifunctional button, which requires pressing and pushes the buds further into your ears, causing soreness around the concha after a few attempts. The ambient awareness mode is one of the more natural-sounding of those available, good for listening out for announcements or a quick conversation. It still does a fantastic job of silencing common distractions like doorbells, kitchen appliances, and talkative pedestrians. At the same time, the safety lock ensures that the earphones do not come tumbling out during accidental drops and bumps.
