Ratings and reviews

Powerbeats Pro 2 - random connection problems. Sometimes it loses them completely. Sometimes I'll be listening to music (both buds), put the left earbud in the case, music says it's still playing, no sound out of the right one. The left is in the case properly. Beats app will show both are 100% and connected. It's like as if the left is the the leader. Left is out of the case no prob, Right is out of the case alone, problem. Connection is the struggle with this device.

I like the app and it works well, but the issue is that it doesn't work every time. I have my new powerbeats fit on and connected to my phone, I can hear music as well. However, the app doesn't register that my beats are connected and never gets past the connection screen. If I hold the case open for a while eventually it does recognize that they're already connected and in use, but I don't want to sit there with the case open waiting for the app. So if this can be fixed then the app is good.

For the Powerbeats Pro 2 (ironically, the most expensive version), it doesn't let you pair the case to see its charge level. It says that it can track your heart rate, but it seems to me that it only pulls data from any other fitness app you must have, without which, this feature won't work at all. Some times it won't let you see any feature of any kind and will show you adds will take you to their sales website.
