Can't wait until UPS delivers my black Beats Fit Pro and my wife's purple ones later this week. We'll finally be able to ditch earbuds with lightning port that keep falling out of our ears while we work out in the gym.
As the YouTube reviews keep rolling out, it's funny that some tech vloggers who consider themselves audiophiles seem to forget that these earbuds will primarily used for workouts and other active use situations. They knock the case and lack of magsafe wireless charging, though both fair points, but if they had this feature and a better case, what would be the point of the Airpods Pro 2?
Hopefully Apple will realize that and sell the case for those who already own the Beats Fit Pro and include it in the second generation of these earbuds.I don't think they needed to have MagSafe, but regular wireless charging should have really been in there considering it's 2021 and their cost.
I have had the same problem with every bud except Powerbeats Pro (the big ear hook type). These new Beats Fit Pro also fell out. But then I got the idea to put the double-cone tip from my Powerbeats Pro on these new Beats Fit Pro. And wallah! --They do not budge, don't slip out over time, not even when I chew, and they are comfortable, ...perfect in every way! So, for a few ear canal shapes like mine, Apple is missing sales due to not putting those double-cone tips with their other buds.Yup got mine in the last hour. AirPods fell out, AirPods Pro was a bit better but fell out on runs. These are ROCK SOLID in the ear. They do NOT move. Amazing stuff, I feel like I'm finally like those lucky people who can live in their AirPods.

Next I tried these on my Beats Studio Buds that slipped out unless I pushed 'em back every five min or so. Same success.
Damn, people! If you have a problem, order these tips (Powerbeats Pro replacement tips):

You can squish them in there, but it is not natural. After every workout I take my tips off and wash them in soap, and then let them dry overnight. So, it is not a big deal for me. Even my Powerbeats Pro go in the case tipless, as the tips are drying.I do not have a problem with the BFP falling out on their own but I have knocked them out a few times. Both times were after long workouts and I had taken some paper towels to wipe the sweat off my head, neck and face and I guess I came close enough to them to knock them out but I didn't feel like I knocked them out. It's just something that I have to remember not to do.
I wore my Jaybirds X3s last night for a walk and those still fit better than the BFP as they have different size earwings. The larges size fits my ears perfectly - that is they go from the small tip in the front of the ear to the crevice in the back. The BFP would fit better if they had different-sized tips but the solution that they have is very, very good.
The thing about putting a larger tip on the BFPs is: do they still fit in the charging case?
I know a lot of people have commented they don’t like the case, but it seems fine to me and I wouldnt have even noticed it if others hadn’t complained.
My Jabra’s are going back! ANC even after update isn’t as good as my trusty AirPod Pro’s.
I swear my AirPod Pro’s were punishing me for not using them a week by having no charge and not Qi charging. Fixed easily.
No I’m waiting on Beats Fit Pro’s to be available in ?? ?
Can you just order them from Amazon US and have them ship it to Canada?
Pre-pandemic, we had tons of people from Canada that drove down to buy stuff here - no sales taxes or VAT was the draw I guess.
Passport renewal is in the works. Not listed on Amazon US site btw. I did check last week and again just now. Can’t trick Apple USA site either since we have postal codes not zip codes. Just have to patiently wait.
No issues with the case. Eartip fit as long as you do the fit test should be fine. Apple could do better with the eartip material. I wonder if Apple Airpods Pro eartips will fit.
