BeatsFit Pro – True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds – Active Noise Cancelling - Sweat Resistant Earphones, Compatible with Apple & Android, Class 1 Bluetooth®, Built-in Microphone – Black

There are so many options for noise cancelling earbuds nowadays. I am SO pleased to have settled on this pair of earbuds after hours of comparing prices, functions, reviews of fit, etc.They are easy to use, they stay in place, they sound great, they charge rapidly, the app is no hassle, and they look a lot more discreet than other models!Removing an earbud will pause the listening automatically, which is really useful at times.One can change the noise-cancellation mode with an integrated button in the earbud, as well as move through a playlist (that isn't super easy, to be honest), but with those two set up one can't change the volume from the earbuds. Only through the connected device.(I've not really tried and tested the microphone quality, so won't comment on that.)SOUND: they pack a punch and what a sound-quality! I was impressed by the clarity and bass (I'm no expert there, please read other reviews for this). Thanks to noise-cancellation and this audio-quality, I've heard details in songs I know very well that I had never heard before. This on its own might not be worth the overall price, but it remains the best sound I've heard using earbuds.FIT: those fit me incredibly well (relatively big ears here but most earbuds fit me similarly), and they are indeed next to impossible to shake off. I've not tried running with them yet. No issue while eating though. I'd definitely say they are more stable than the regular shape for earbuds, which used to fall whenever masticating or removing a sweater. However, my girlfriend has tried them and simply couldn't have them fit in; she has MUCH smaller ears than me and has always struggled with earbuds. So I guess the conclusion is that these have an average size for average ears.They don't stick out, look discreet and pretty cool. Really pleased with the aesthetics of it!NOISE CANCELLATION: I have hyper-sensitivity to sounds and can happily say that these have made my life a lot easier. With music in at a normal volume, I can't hear most people anymore and must lip-read. In a train? Quiet. In a London street? Quiet. Open-space chat behind my back? Quiet. Of course, none of that becomes 100% silent, but I'm not overstimulated or distracted anymore. And importantly I don't need to turn up the music to unsafe levels anymore. 10/10! I've tried ANC on a Sony headset, and it made me dizzy for some reason. None of that here, those earbuds have immediately become my gold standard for comfort and noise cancellation.BATTERY & CHARGING: it couldn't be easier to charge those. However, to know how much battery you have left in either the earbuds or their case, you must open the app. Alternatively, you'll hear a sort of gentle jingle whenever close to 10% left. They charge incredibly quickly and last a while! Listening to music with noise-cancellation on for a whole afternoon without having to worry about the battery is nothing short of wonderful. If need be, a few minutes charging in the case will extend listening time by 1-2 hours.CASE & APP: I find the case beautiful and really ergonomic. When opened, the lid feels a bit fragile on its hinges, true, but when closed (there's a decent magnet) it all feels sturdier than I feared reading some of the reviews. That said, I'm overly careful with such things. I connect them on an Android smartphone: absolutely no issue connecting them or using them afterwards. The app is fairly straightforward, if anything lacking some space for personalisation (not that it's needed for most users, I reckon).Overall, really pleased with these and I will recommend them over and over again. Worth the investment!

Over the past 5 years or so I’ve purchased various off-brand and cheap headphones, which have inevitably failed. I decided to treat myself to some decent headphones.First impressions are great. The headphones are nicely packaged and feel premium. The charging case feels and looks nice.Connecting the headphones to my iPhone was straightforward. Being Apple by a different name (Apple owns Dr Dre) these headphones integrate nicely into iOS. As an example you open the Bluetooth settings menu and the phone displays the settings for the headphones without having to dig for them. They also work very well with my Garmin Music smart watch.The sound quality is very good, though I’m sure there are some frequencies that they aren’t so good at. The noise cancellation is also very good and blocks out wind noise, speech and other unwanted distractions.I bought these headphones for running, which they are perfect for. The wing tipsmean that they stay in your ears, and there is no need to keep readjusting them. I’ve used them on 10m runs and short runs and never felt like they were about to fall out. Others have said that they start to feel uncomfortable, though I’ve not noticed this.The controls are very intuitive, and easy to operate when running, even when wearing thick gloves. Single tap - stop, double tap - skip forward, triple tap - skip back. Hold left - volume down, hold right - volume up. Though see below regards the ANC controls.Unlike other headphones it’s very hard to accidentally skip forward or backwards when trying to change the volume etc. and this works well even when running.The ‘Find My’ integration is good. A few times I’ve misplaced one ear piece in the house and been able to use my phone to locate it.The only downside I’ve found is the controls. You can set that long press is volume up or volume down, _or_ that long press is switch between transparent and noice cancellation mode. This is fine when you are using them with an iPhone - the phone provides the volume control and ANC settings. It’s less helpful if you are connected to a watch or non-phone - you’ve essentially got to choose whether you want easily accessible ANC or easily accessible volume. It would be nice to be able to re-map the buttons to a custom configuration. Then again this is probably advanced use and beyond what most users would want!In short they aren’t cheap but they just work. Would definitely recommend.
