The Beats Fit Pro remain a good pair of fitness-friendly earbuds, though they lack features like wireless charging and heart-rate monitoring found in the new Beats PowerBeats Pro 2. They deliver terrific sound and noise cancellation, along with an IPX4 rating for water resistance. The Beats Fit Pro don’t have ear hooks like the PowerBeats Pro 2, but their built-in wing tips still do a good job of keeping them securely in place during vigorous workouts. And, just like the PowerBeats Pro 2, they work well with Android devices but also offer a range of Apple-centric features including support for automatic device switching, FindMy, and head-tracking spatial audio.
As for Samsung’s Galaxy 3 Buds Pro: these buds are our top pick if you own a Samsung Galaxy phone. They’re Samsung’s best-sound wireless earbuds yet, granting Galaxy phone owners exclusive features like immersive head-tracking spatial audio and automatic switching between Samsung devices. The buds also deliver even better noise cancellation and call quality than their predecessor, along with new AirPods-like elongated stems that allow for gesture-based swipes. Woot is selling the international version of the Galaxy 3 Buds Pro, which are identical to the American buds but lack Samsung’s one-year warranty. Woot is throwing in a 90-day limited warranty, at least.
