The latest model is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/21309820\/best-wireless-earbuds#09JCVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">our favorite pair of earbuds for sports and working out<\/a> thanks to features like active noise cancellation, heart rate monitoring, and a handy transparency mode that pipes outsides noises in. The updated mics do a solid job of filtering out ambient noise, too, while on-ear buttons provide tactile feedback when controlling playback. They even support hands-free voice control via Siri.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">What makes the Powerbeats Pro 2 stand out among other Beats and Apple earbuds, however, is that they support  heart rate monitoring. Each earbud features an optical heart rate sensor and accelerometer, which is the same tech found in the Apple Watch. The collected data integrates with apps from Nike, Runna, Peloton, and others, giving you insight into your performance. If you don\u2019t already rely on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/22985108\/best-fitness-tracker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fitness tracker<\/a> to track your workouts, the Powerbeats Pro 2 are a decent alternative.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The earbuds are also more comfortable to wear over extended periods. For instance, the ear hooks are 50 percent smaller, while the buds themselves are 20 percent lighter than the original model. Heck, even the case has shrunk by 33 percent. Despite their smaller size, though, the Powerbeats Pro 2 offer about 10 hours of battery life \u2014 or up to 45 hours with the included charging case. And in typical Beats fashion, the earbuds deliver thumping base, though the overall sound quality falls short of the latest AirPods Pro.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-none\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/headphone-review\/609473\/powerbeats-pro-2-review-headphones-heart-rate-monitoring-wearables\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read our Powerbeats Pro 2 review<\/a>.<\/h5>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heart rate monitoring, here we come.
