In short
Get Powerbeats Fit if you want noise-cancelling workout earbuds held in by flexible wingtips, and you use an iPhone or an Android phone. Both the buds and the case are IPX4 sweat- and water-resistant, a first for a Beats case. The buds run 7 hours, or 30 with the case, and the case charges over USB-C only. Skip it if you want heart-rate tracking or wireless charging: that's Powerbeats Pro 2.
Who it is for
- Runners and gym-goers who want a secure fit without hooks. The wingtip tucks under the ridge of your upper ear, and Beats says the new wings are nearly 20% more flexible than Beats Fit Pro's.
- Homes with both iPhones and Android phones. It works with both: Apple's extras on an iPhone, the Beats app on Android.
- Beats Fit Pro owners ready to replace theirs. Powerbeats Fit is Beats' next generation of the Fit Pro, with a smaller case and a fourth tip size.
Who should skip it
- Anyone who wants heart-rate tracking, wireless charging or ear hooks. Those are on Powerbeats Pro 2, along with the H2 chip and up to 45 hours with the case.
- LDAC listeners. Beats doesn't list codecs for Powerbeats Fit; Sony's WF-1000XM6 is a pair that lists LDAC.
What sets it apart
- The first Beats case rated for sweat and water: IPX4, matching the buds.
- Redesigned wingtips that Beats says are nearly 20% more flexible than Beats Fit Pro's, plus ear tips in four sizes, XS to L.
- Active Noise Cancelling and Transparency, plus Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking and Adaptive EQ.
- Six microphones working with Apple's H1 chip for calls.
Caveats
- Beats sells the USB-C cable and power adapter separately; the box holds the buds, the case, the tips and paperwork.
- Switching between devices is an Apple feature here: Beats lists Automatic Switching on iPhone and no multipoint for Android.
