Apple plans to release Beats Fit Pro in new Volt Yellow, Coral Pink, and Tidal Blue colors, according to leaker @Jioriku. The colors have not been announced yet, but we have spotted listings for the new colors on several Apple reseller websites in Europe.

First released in November 2021, the Beats Fit Pro feature flexible wingtips for a more secure fit in the ear. The fitness-oriented earbuds have a similar design and features as the AirPods Pro, including silicone ear tips, active noise cancellation with a "Transparency" mode, spatial audio with dynamic head tracking, an H1 chip for one-tap pairing and automatic switching between Apple devices, hands-free "Hey Siri" support, and more.

For more details about the Beats Fit Pro, check out our hands-on coverage from 2021.

Beats Fit Pro are currently available in Beats Black, Beats White, Stone Purple, and Sage Gray color options for $199.99, and the new colors would likely be sold for the same price. On Amazon, the earbuds also remain available in limited-edition Moon, Dune, and Earth colors designed in collaboration with fashion designer Kim Kardashian.

Update: A tipster has provided MacRumors with alleged images of the new Beats Fit Pro colors.

Beats Fit Pros are a vastly superior form factor to Airpod Pros.

I'd rather have Beats Fit Pros with an H1 chip than Airpod Pros 2 with an H2 chip.

None of the H2 features are even slightly as useful as my buds actually staying inside my ears when I run.

If Apple wants to keep Beats a generation behind, then fine - I simply won't 'upgrade'.

Do the beats fly out of the case when dropped? Looking for an alternative. The AirPods case is too slippery, and the left one pops out of my ear on occasion.
 
Can't think of any other Apple product that will have 10 color options, unless these 3 new colors are replacing 3 older colors. Why do we need so many? And people say Apple has a model line up problem.
 
I’ve had my Beat Fit Pros since release and love them. Needed a little super glue last year to reattach a wing that nearly came off, but now they’re good as new. Only thing I wish they had is a MagSafe charging case. That would get me to upgrade faster than putting an H2 chip in them when that day comes.

I’ve dropped my case a couple of times and they’ve gone flying. I find the case is a little easier to hold onto than my previous AirPod Pros, mostly just because it’s a little larger. I run in mine regularly and, aside from a handful of mid-run adjustments, they stay in place and I’ve never worried about one falling out, even on trail runs.

Reduce the case size and I'll strongly consider it!

Although I have the APP2, and holy cow the sound quality and noise cancelling is so much better than the first gen.
 
I would say they need to go back to the drawing board on these earbuds. I had the PowerBeats Pros for 2 years, wearing my right one daily as a bluetooth earpiece for work since I am a contractor. Because of my wonderful experience with the PowerBeats, I jumped at the Beats Fit Pros. I have NOT had the same experience with the Beats Fit Pros. I understand that items like these, and like shoes, sometime need some time adjusting to them. It took me about 6 months before I no longer felt pain in my ears from wearing them for more than an hour. In the first two week, one of the ear buds actually rubbed my ear raw to the point that it was bleeding. I tried all the different tip sizes and they just made it worse. Now I don't get pain from ear fatigue unless I have them in for more than about 6 hours, which the battery is depleted by then, usually, so that's not as much of an issue. My issue now is they fall out of my ears. When I move my jaw around from talking or eating, they will push their way out of my ear. If I am doing that when leaning over, it happens faster, again, I am a contractor so being on the phone while I am moving around and in awkward positions, that happens frequently. I love the sound quality and features, but I would only rate these at like a 6/10, they really missed the mark on these. I miss my PowerBeats and wish they would update those with the new features. If they update the PowerBeats with ANC and Spatial Audio, I will sell these and switch.
