The first design collaboration between Apple and Beats by Dre, the Powerbeats Pro gets top-level performance without the pro price point. On-the-go users will love the extended battery life. With up to 9 hours on a single charge, and up to 24 hours with the included charging case, the Powerbeats Pro will last through any excursion. Out of juice and need your \u2018buds for a workout? A quick 5-minute charge provides up to 1.5 hours of playback. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Athletic individuals will love the Powerbeats Pro. The IPX5 water-resistance rating outperforms all others in even the most demanding environments. The fourth-generation model features new softer loops and a more ergonomic design placing a premium on fit and feel. The ear hooks hold the Powerbeats Pro in place through rigorous activity while feeling comfortable and looking great. The secure fit helps cut down on external noise helping you to stay in the game.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The impressive tech doesn\u2019t stop at their heavy-duty build though. Optical sensors and accelerometers recognize when they are in place to automatically play and pause your audio, and each earbud has full controls for ease of use. The Powerbeats Pro even features improved call quality with the ability to take phone calls with either bud as well.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
