The Powerbeats Pro 2 are down to their best price yet for Prime Day


The Powerbeats Pro 2 are only a few months old, but they’re already on sale for an all-time low of around $179.95 ($70 off) at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy. We’ve seen the wireless earbuds drop in price here and there since launching in February, but Amazon is currently one-upping the previous low by a cool $20 for Prime Day. The earbuds aren’t quite as cheap as Apple’s second-gen AirPods Pro, which are down to $149 ($100 off) at Amazon, but if you want a pair specifically for working out, the Powerbeats Pro 2 are the ones to get.
It took beats nearly six years to release a sequel to the original Powerbeats Pro — and it was worth it. The latest model is our favorite pair of earbuds for sports and working out thanks to features like active noise cancellation, heart rate monitoring, and a handy transparency mode that pipes outsides noises in. The updated mics do a solid job of filtering out ambient noise, too, while on-ear buttons provide tactile feedback when controlling playback. They even support hands-free voice control via Siri.
What makes the Powerbeats Pro 2 stand out among other Beats and Apple earbuds, however, is that they support heart rate monitoring. Each earbud features an optical heart rate sensor and accelerometer, which is the same tech found in the Apple Watch. The collected data integrates with apps from Nike, Runna, Peloton, and others, giving you insight into your performance. If you don’t already rely on a fitness tracker to track your workouts, the Powerbeats Pro 2 are a decent alternative.
The earbuds are also more comfortable to wear over extended periods. For instance, the ear hooks are 50 percent smaller, while the buds themselves are 20 percent lighter than the original model. Heck, even the case has shrunk by 33 percent. Despite their smaller size, though, the Powerbeats Pro 2 offer about 10 hours of battery life — or up to 45 hours with the included charging case. And in typical Beats fashion, the earbuds deliver thumping base, though the overall sound quality falls short of the latest AirPods Pro.
