Beats Fit Pro
$199, beatsbydre.com
The ear-gripping, wingtipped Beats Fit Pro are like Airpods Pro’s sound meets fitness-friendly design. They pack the same H1 headphone chip you find in Apple’s buds. This is used to power Adaptive EQ that automatically tweaks the audio to your surroundings, plus ANC, transparency mode and a clever spatial sound feature, which uses gyroscopes and accelerometers to sense where you’re looking in relation to the audio action, for a 360-degree listening experience.
You get a competitive seven-hour battery life with an additional 23 hours in the case. The buds are also sweat- and water-resistant – though the chunky case isn’t, and there’s no wireless charging.
