It’s hard to believe it’s been 4 years since the Beats Fit Pro, which was a combination of the PowerBeats Pro and Studio Buds, which originally launched back in 2021. However, instead of a refresh, Beats opted for a slight rebrand with its successor, the all-new Powerbeats Fit.
Along with its new name, Beats made several minor updates across the board for its latest buds. Its wingtip is now 20% more flexible for a more comfortable fit, the charging case is 17% smaller, an extra small ear tip has been added to its small, medium, and large sizes, and an IPX4 coating has been added to its case to combat sweat and minor splashes.
However, it retains its ANC abilities with transparency mode, Apple’s H1 chip for Personalized Spatial Audio with head tracking, Adaptive EQ, Audio Sharing, hands-free Siri support, automatic switching between devices, FaceTime support for Dolby Atmos spatial audio, and Find My Device support. You also have on-device controls to access playback, volume, calls, assistants, and more.
The battery life remains similar to its predecessor, offering up to 7 hours of use on the earbuds and up to 30 hours with the charging case when ANC is turned off; however, you can expect a reduction of one hour when ANC is activated and 24 hours of juice in total. It supports fast charging, or, as Beats calls it, Fast Fuel, as it can provide an hour’s worth of juice in a 5-minute charge.
You can pre-order the new Powerbeats Fit today, as they will arrive in black, gray, orange, and pink color options. They go on sale on October 2 and keep their $200 price point.
