Powerbeats Pro 2: Listen To Your Heart

by Iris

Developed to withstand intense training sessions and equipped with the most innovative technology and powerful sound, Powerbeats Pro 2 is the most impressive product in Beats’ history. Boasting a redesigned earhook and significant upgrades to sound, battery life, and call performance, now with Heart Rate Monitoring for workouts, Active Noise Cancellation, Transparency mode, Adaptive EQ, and wireless charging, Powerbeats Pro 2 sets a new standard in audio for fitness.

 

 

 

 

Heart Rate Monitoring for Workouts

Accurate Heart Rate Monitoring for workouts gives athletes real-time data on their performance, with LED optical sensors pulsing over 100 times per second to measure blood flow. All this can be relayed to compatible fitness apps in real time.

At launch, the Powerbeats Pro 2 Heart Rate Monitoring feature will be compatible with the following apps in Canada:

  • Runna
  • Nike Run Club
  • Open
  • Ladder
  • Peloton
  • Slopes
  • YaoYao

 

Reengineered Acoustics and Spatial Audio

Powerbeats Pro 2 features a redesigned acoustic architecture and Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking to deliver powerful, immersive sound, with clear highs, rich mid-range tones and deep bass. To ensure the best listening experience when training, Beats leveraged Apple’s best-performing Active Noise Cancelling technology and added Transparency mode to allow athletes to hear the world around them.

 

Adaptive EQ tunes sound in real time based on how Powerbeats Pro 2 fits in the user’s ear. An inward-facing microphone monitors for sound, and then Adaptive EQ, powered by computational audio, tunes the low and mid frequencies to account for what may be lost due to variances in fit.

 

Ultra Stability and Comfort

Powerbeats Pro 2 was tested with nearly 1,000 athletes. The earhook has been reinforced with a nickel titanium alloy for phenomenal flexibility, grip and comfort. The result: Powerbeats Pro 2 is 20% lighter than its predecessor and is Beats ’best-fitting headphone — ever.

  • Tough enough to handle training in rain, snow and heat, Powerbeats Pro 2 is sweat and water resistant with an IPX4 rating.
  • Upgraded venting enhances comfort and sound and for the first time ever, a fifth ear tip size is included for personalized comfort. Users can choose from extra-small, small, medium, large and extra-large to find their fit.

 

Connection and Controls

  • Take calls, FaceTime with Spatial Audio and activate Siri with industry-leading Class Bluetooth® connectivity.
  • Powerbeats Pro 2 is fully compatible with Apple devices for one-touch pairing, automatic switching, Audio Sharing, hands-free Siri and Find My. For Android users, the Beats App unlocks one-touch pairing, the ability to activate or disable Heart Rate Monitoring, customizable controls, battery status widgets, Locate My Beats, and over-the-air updates.
  • On-ear buttons or hands-free Siri can be used to control music, so users can focus on uninterrupted training. Each earbud also has a tactile volume rocker for ultimate convenience.
  • Each earbud is equipped with a voice accelerometer and three advanced microphones, which are more accurate than ever before. Leveraging advanced computational audio and a machine-learning algorithm, Voice Isolation reduces background noise while isolating and clarifying the user’s voice during calls. With an improved signal-to-noise ratio and exceptional voice targeting and noise suppression, Powerbeats Pro 2 boasts impressive call performance.

 

More Battery & Less Case

  • The redesigned case is 33% smaller than the original, and it’s Beats’ first case ever to feature wireless charging.
  • Up to 45 hours of continuous playback with the charging case. And each bud gives up to 10 hours of playback per charge.

 

Powerbeats Pro 2 is available in four bold colours—Jet Black, Quick Sand, Hyper Purple, and Electric Orange—for $349.95.
