Powerbeats Pro 2 announced with slimmer design, heart rate monitoring


The latest fitness-focused Beats earbuds can help monitor your health while delivering punchy sound

At launch, the data collected from the sensors can be read in Open, Peloton, Runna, Slopes, Ladder, Nike Run Club, and YaoYao, with more to come in the future. To back up the upgraded sound quality, Beats includes personalized Spatial Audio for a more immersive listening experience, as well as active noise cancellation (ANC) and transparency mode. When it’s time to recharge, there’s a speedy USB-C port near the bottom of the case as well as Qi wireless charging, which is a feature I personally believe should be on every pair of earbuds shipped from now on.
