Overview
Apple announced the Powerbeats Pro wireless earphones on April 3, 2019, starting at 249.99. Each earbud features premium wireless audio and an adjustable ear hook design to ensure a secure fit. Each earbud also comes equipped with volume and track controls, which allows users to use the earbuds independent of each other or together.

They feature the Apple H1 chip, which can also be found in the second generation AirPods. This chip allows for compatible Apple devices (see below) to be able to use certain features such as a stronger connection and faster pairing. The Powerbeats Pro can automatically sync through Apple's iCloud service allowing users to switch audio sources to other supported devices connected by the same Apple ID. These features are not available to Android devices.

The H1 chip also has improvements when it comes to battery life. Apple claims that each earbud on the Powerbeats Pro can get up to 9 hours of playback. In addition, the included charging case will allow for users to gain an additional 1.5 hours of playback with 5 minutes of charging.
