Beats Announces Totally Wireless Powerbeats Pro Headphones For $250

Apple’s Beats has announced a new pair of ‘totally wireless’ headphones called Powerbeats Pro and they will be launching soon.

While Powerbeats Pro look similar to Beats Powerbeats 3 headphones, they feature a more modern looking design. Apart from the design changes the biggest thing that differentiates the two headphones is the fact that Powerbeats Pro are totally wireless while Powerbeats 3 have a cable connecting the left and right sides.

Beats Powerbeats Pro headphones also offer fast fuel charging capabilities and allow users to enjoy up to 1.5 hours of playback with a 5-minute recharge.

On iOS devices Powerbeats Pro offer hands-free Hey Siri access, which suggests that they feature the new H1 chip found on the newer AirPods.

Other features of Powerbeats Pro include physical volume buttons, autoplay capability that pauses the music as soon as you remove the headphones, the ‘b’ logo button is also press-able and offers ability to decline phone calls. They come with Class 1 Bluetooth technology that offers extended range and fewer dropouts. Interestingly Wireless Charging capabilities are missing from the charging case.
