These Beats Fit Pro Earbuds Are $70 Off Right Now

THE Beats Fit Pro (1st generation) the headphones aren’t the newest exercise headphones on the market, and they don’t reinvent the wheel; However, they are a proven favorite with ANC and a comfortable fit, making them a sportier version of the AirPods Pro for gym-goers and runners, with a slight added advantage in battery life. Right now, a pair in white is 35% off and currently at its lowest price ever. $129.99 (originally $199.95).

These true wireless earbuds from Beats feature strong noise cancellation and Apple’s signature H1 chip, making them similar to the AirPods Pro with Apple features like spatial audio with head tracking, adaptive EQ, hands-free Siri, and one-touch iOS pairing. They last up to 6 hours with ANC enabled (compared to 4.5 hours on the Airpods Pro with ANC enabled) and get an additional 21-23 hours thanks to the charging case.

Like most Beats headphones, they have physical touch buttons, which is a plus for those who don’t like touch controls. Heads fit “comfortably and securely” according to CNETdespite a unique wingtip design. They have 9.5mm drivers, which are a bit heavier and punchier than the AirPods Pro. The ANC is reliable and does a good job blocking out low-frequency sounds in crowded environments, but PCMag notes that it may not be as effective against higher frequencies, unlike slightly more expensive models such as the Sony WF-1000XM4 Headphones.

While they outperform the AirPods in a few categories, their six microphones perform slightly worse, with less clarity and less background noise reduction. That said, CNET still ranks them above the AirPods Pro in overall performance and physical usage. If you’re an Apple user looking for comfortable, everyday headphones that can be used anywhere from your daily commute to your workouts, the Beats Fit Pro (1st generation) are a solid choice, especially at their lowest price ever.
