Powerbeats High-Performance Wireless Bluetooth Headphones - Black - MWNV2LL/A (Renewed)

Actual beats. Sounds great

Unfortunately this is the 2 I get have returned the first one but don’t know whts going on with the beats which I have used them for yrs n love them they r clear very good quality n don’t have worry of losing them cus they hang on ur next but they don’t make them anymore which is sad ..so I got a second pair n again broke in the same place …🙄

This is the second time I bought these. They coincidently both broke (stopped charging and wouldn’t connect) as soon as the return period ended. They are great when they work, but even the cheap ones lasr over a year. Really disappointed since they are still $100 for refurbs. Waste of money

I was so sad wen beast stopped making these! I got them refurbished and love them. i love that I can take one out an dangle it on my neck. I lose loose ear buds so easily....

First of all, as Renewed earbuds, these are functionally excellent. I don't observe any degradation in battery life from new, and they function 100% properly. That said, I'm MUCH less happy about the fact that my pair were either chewed by a small animal or maybe briefly dropped in a garbage disposal, or possibly hit by bird shot: pretty obvious indentations on three sides of the main body of the left earbud. But, again, they function (seemingly) perfectly, so my complaint is only one of aesthetics and full disclosure on the part of the vendor, no strike to the manufacturer. On functionality: the ease and solidity of connection between these earbuds and Apple devices is a revelation. I've only ever had 3rd party Bluetooth devices, never native Apple accessories, and it really is another level of connectivity. This is most particularly clear on Zoom calls, where these earbuds seem to have significantly more "bandwidth" than any 3rd party headphones I've used. I will often have Spotify playing instrumental music softly in the background during long Zoom calls just for my own peace of mind, which seemed to be causing laggy interruptions with the 3rd party earbuds I've used, but when I switched to these mid-meeting, those issues cleared up right away. So what I have experienced as wifi/internet connectivity issues in the past may actually have been my earbuds. Who knew? These Powerbuds are far superior in that regard, they pair extremely fast and foolproof, and they switch between Apple devices seamlessly. Very high marks in that regard. These earbuds sound quite good for casual listening, as far as earbuds go (they're not reference monitors; you gotta have reasonable standards), very clear and even frequency response, nothing that sticks out and jabs your eardrums. I'm told the voice quality of the mic on calls is pretty decent. Overall these sound entirely reasonable for their price point—I've heard much worse. Worth noting: likely owing to the particularities of my ears, I don't get a good seal from the tips without *really* cramming them in there, which is about as uncomfortable as you'd imagine. Not a big deal for daily use—and I'd argue it's much safer to have some noise bleed in from the outside world if you're wearing these out and about—but if you need a noisy environment really sealed out (I can see this being an issue on airplanes, for instance) you *may* have an issue with these. On comfort: I have somewhat peculiar ear canals, and only one of the included pair of tips is even remotely comfortable, and even that's a bit of a stretch for long-term use. If I use them for several hours back-to-back for a few days in a row, my ears definitely get a bit sore. Again, this is unique to everyone, and I've only ever found one pair of earbuds yet that fit really comfortably out of the box; your mileage may vary, and aftermarket tips are an option i plan to explore as well. (By the way, if you happen to have ears that are somewhat odd in the particular ways mine are, for the record I've found the Monoprice TWE-04 earbuds to be VERY comfortable to wear, with a great noise seal. Just throwing that out there.) One more word on fit: the over-ear loop makes these things *entirely* secure to wear. I don't think anything short of someone physically grabbing the cord between the buds would cause them to fall out unexpectedly. And for those of you wondering, I can also comfortably wear glasses/sunglasses (even some with chunky Wayfarer-style temple pieces) with these buds. Again, high marks in this category. (BTW the trick I use to get these on one-handed is to start with them rotated forward by about 90° from their usual wearing position, inserting the tip into the canal in a downward and inward motion, while using a couple fingers to tuck the loop behind your upper ear, then rotating the earbud rearward to get the tip seated in the canal. There's a learning curve, but it *is* possible.) Overall, I like these a lot, with a couple caveats. Their ease and security of wear and superior functionality win the day by a good margin, and outweigh the issue of less-than-perfect comfort. But seriously, maybe let a buyer know if you're selling something that's been pre-chewed by a puppy.

The battery life on these headphones is great. Big plus is that they charge with an iPhone charger. Last pair of beats headphones I had didn’t and was a huge pain. The sound out of these is good especially for podcasts and casual music listening. You’re not getting like profound sound but I perfect for what I wanted. I rarely have trouble using these to talk on the phone. Setup is incredibly easy. Overall worth the money. I do find that after wearing them for long periods (like 5-6 hrs) my ears do begin to get sore. It’s not bad, you can mostly just tell. It doesn’t bother me enough to matter.

Quality of sound is on point, as expected. Noise cancelleation is ok with multiple ear bud sizes for different size ears. My only issue is that I bought 2 of these as they can sync together on an AppleTV 4K for simaultaneous listening for 2 people. Unlike previous pairs I've owned using the same firware, I cannot get my iphone or AppleTV to distinguish between the 2 renewed pairs of Beats to allow for the simaultaneous listenening experience.

I love the beats and they are always the only ones I like. I get about a year of life out of them. I love that I don't have to be close at all to my phone for it connect. Battery life is really good. They are also comfortable and stay on my ears when at the gym or working.
