Beats Fit Pro vs AirPods Pro

[tim1000]

sales have these as the same price, based upon that which would you buy or want.

 

[Sheepish-Lord]

Completely different products IMO as I own both. Fit, sound profile, comfort, portability, microphone, etc are all a tad different.

I switched to the BFP's because of the wing tips. Only thing that bothers me is accidentally pressing the button(s) while trying to adjust them. Only annoying when on a phone call.

Owned them both; found the APP to be uncomfortable and heavy. Never could get the right pod to stay in my ear while exercising. I find the sound quality about the same but fit and comfort much better on the BFP. I don't use the ANC feature but would rate them very similar, I keep mine in Transparency mode full time. I like the customizable BFP controls as I can long press left to lower volume or long press right to raise volume. The APP don't offer that feature. Once you become accustomed to the BFP you will stop accidentally pressing the buttons.

I have both & switch back and forth; if forced to choose just one I’d pick the Beats but the APP does have some advantages. I like the MagSafe charging, and I prefer the APP case design in that I can clip it to a belt loop & use it more easily than the full-lid Beats case. The APP has better sound & better microphone, but not like night & day better - the Beats are fine. The Beats bother my ears after a few hours, but stay in better… APP are more comfortable but if I’m active, they don’t stay in place as well.

What's the use case? I have both and prefer Beats Fit Pro for workouts (better sound, better fit, won't fall out during workouts) but I use the APP for work (better noise cancellation).

I've owned both.

Ways the AirPods Pro are better than Beats Fit Pro:

• Better noise cancellation
• Better transparency mode
• Better microphones
• Better-designed and significantly more portable case (which also has wireless charging)
• On-device controls less prone to accidental activation

Ways the Beats Fit Pro are better than AirPods Pro:

• Better sound, with significantly better low-range (doesn't have the over-the-top bass other Beats headphones have)
• Sits more comfortably and more securely in my ears (your mileage may vary)
• Longer battery life
• Usually less expensive than AirPods Pro
• Comes in colours other than white
• Doesn't suffer from the "rattlegate" problem of the AirPods Pro (at least not so far)

If these are available for the same price, which one you choose will come down to what's more important. Do you want outstanding sound, a more secure fit in your ear, longer battery life, and earbuds that aren't white? Get the Beats Fit Pro. Are you willing to settle for slightly less quality in audio performance, but with extremely good noise cancellation, transparency mode that sounds almost exactly like having nothing in your ears at all, good microphones, and a solidly- built case with wireless charging? Get the AirPods Pro.

I personally like the Beats Flex (Previously Beats X) way better than both the above products.

I have/had the BFP, APP (wife's actually), PBP and Beats x. My favourites are the BFP. I loved my PBP and didn't think the BFP could be much better but they are. The APP are very nice, just not a long enough battery life or secure enough (I run a lot) for me.. and the Beats X were very average sound and failed a LOT (had 3 replacement pairs).
