Heard about the charging issues before I bought power beats. Same problem I had with a pair of Bragi Dash I owned way back. Reason I went no “pro”.

I’m still happy with my purchase, you just have to make sure they are docked before you plan to use them. I’ll take that over wires any day. I can see why you wouldn’t want that, though.

Edit to add: they also charge to like 70% in 15 minutes and that charge lasts a long time.

Regular Powerbeats rated for 15hrs on a single charge that makes the charging case irrelevant. It’s one of the longest battery life I’ve seen for a wireless in-ear. Corded design also adds security while working out. Although you could say any of current Powerbeats is already secure on its own by earhooks design.

But the main advantage of the new Powerbeats for me is the actual power button. With PBP there’s no way you could turn the buds off. You either drain and use it, or charge it to 100% with the case.

That’s a perpetual torture for the battery, much like the AirPods. With the regular Powerbeats though, when it’s off, it’s off. The price (on sale or not) also seals the deal for me.

Does this mean the new PBP2 will be out soon. I'm waiting for these to come out before buying.
This is my position for a while now. I’ve got the Bose 700 headphones, which aren’t great for the simplest of activity such as walking and I love the ANC. Hoping ANC makes it into PBP2 so I can grab a pair for exercise and leave the Bose for stationary situations.

Makes sense. I’ve still had good luck aside from the case. I’ve had one fall out but it snagged a tree limb as I was mowing under it.
