Beats has established a big reputation when it comes to providing sound quality and the PowerBeats 2 Wireless headset delivered, although at a premium price.

Dr. Dre's Powerbeats 2 wireless earbuds certainly let the beat drop. These $189 earbuds make it easy to go cord-free with music that's full of powerful bass, and the comfy over-ear design lets you wear them all day long.

Trendy design; Comfortable, bendable over-ear grip; Super-powerful bass

Weak highs and mids; Battery life could be longer; Expensive

This review is for Beats Powerbeats2 Wireless (white). First I would like to introduce myself I am 38 years old and have been into audio equipment since middle school. I don't consider myself an audiophile, but a audio equipment enthusiast.

Good wirelsess range; smooth sound; fashionable

A little big; pricey

Bought these a month ago and was so excited. They worked very well to begin with. They just don't seem to be able to deal with sweat! After a long run on Sunday they seemed to have packed up. Volume doesn't work and they won't switch off.

Paired with an iphone I found the range and sound quality to be good. But when paying so much for a bluetooth headset I expect a better build quality! The remote broke within 3 months of use running and in the gym and I was told at the service that the one year limited warranty doesn't apply...

Fits perfectly in my ear and allows me to concentrate on my training and exercises. But for the price, I would have given a 5 star rating.

Design and fit

nothing so far

This is the second set and now this set doesn't work properly either. First set volume panel on the cord fell apart. Second set the volume button and stop button doesn't work at all.

These are really great, I use them mostly to motorcycle and they fit great with my helmet. Very comfortable and good sound.

Beats will please users looking for a flashy set of in-ear headphones that provide booming sound and a handful of features. But for value-centric shoppers, there are many options that outperform for less cash.

Minimalistic design; Universal controls; Powers workouts with tons of bass

Expensive; Comfort issues; Sound lacks fidelity

Now I don't have to worry about missing an important call when I'm at the gym. Also, no more getting tangled up in wired cords and nearly knocking my iPhone off the treadmill! The sound is terrific...use half the volume level my old wired headphones used.

Comfortable; Compact; Convenience; Durable; Good Bass; Good Value; Great Sound; Lightweight; Stylish
