Powerbeats3 Wireless Earphones Review: Improved Yet Pricey Sports Headphone
Beats, known for their stylish designs and premium quality sound, have rolled out their latest offering – The Powerbeats3. Popular among fitness enthusiasts and music lovers alike, its design, improved features and performance demand a premium that not everyone might be willing to pay. Here’s our in-depth review of the Powerbeats3 Wireless Earphones.
The design has remained relatively unchanged yet remains one of the most stylish sports headphones on the market. The ear hooks ensure a secure fit even during high-intensity workouts. However, it’s important to note that these are not completely waterproof but only sweat and water-resistant.
The most significant improvement in Powerbeats3 is its battery life. Promising 12 hours of uninterrupted playback on a single charge, it surpasses many competitors in this segment. A quick charge “Fast Fuel” feature added gives an hour of playback with just five minutes of charging – quite handy for those rushed mornings.
Sound quality is an area where Beats always excel and the Powerbeats3 Wireless Earphones are no exception. Delivering immersive, detailed audio with dynamic highs and impressive bass, every beat can be appreciated to its fullest. This headphone also has dual driver acoustics that work together to create a wide soundstage.
The connectivity has taken a notable leap with the introduction of Apple’s W1 chip which ensures faster pairing with Apple devices along with improved Bluetooth connection and reach. Android users still get standard Bluetooth connectivity which is satisfactory but not as seamless as with Apple devices.
The earphone also includes integrated controls for volume, tracking and calls along with voice capability making them an ideal companion for daily commuting or gym sessions.
However, all these unique features come at a cost – They’re expensive compared to other wireless sports headphones available in the market.
In conclusion, the Powerbeats3 Wireless Earphones deliver great sound quality, long-lasting battery life and a sleek design. It has all you need in sports headphones —if you’re willing to pay a premium price for them.
