The Powerbeats Pro 2 have been unveiled. It now offers heart rate monitoring, colorful options, and a handful of features.
It should be a great find for users with active lifestyles as it was tested by around a thousand athletes. Plus, it has a better fit that features a fortified nickel-titanium alloy ear hook for ergonomics.
Another new feature is its venting mechanism, designed to improve airflow. The new Powerbeats Pro also has an additional fifth ear tip size (S to XL) to help users get an optimal fit. Beats say that it’s their best fitting headphone ever, weighing 20 percent less than its predecessor.

As mentioned, it also now has a built-in heart rate monitor that uses LED optical sensors. It tracks blood flow over a hundred times per second. Beats also says that it supports a number of fitness apps like Open, Ladder, Nike Run Club, Runna, and Slopes.
Beats’ latest release is rated for 10 hours per charge and up to 45 hours with its case. Users can also make use of its 5-minute quick charge feature which offers 1 hour and 30 minutes of playback. In addition, it even supports wireless charging as well.
