I have these in black, got them about 2 weeks ago for the gym. Waaaay better than the AirPods for my ears. The latter are too big, cause lots of pain and just fall out. I love the PB Pro, it just plain works, sounds great and is comfy for hours.
Got a tip for us?

The black ones are so dull so I've been waiting all summer for the other colours. Get them released in Britain yesterday!
Sounds like your AirPods have a defect. Go get them replaced.

I would say the sound quality is way superior to AirPods. Also the comfort is hands down the best I’ve ever had for in-ear headphones. I used to run with JayBird X3’s and it was a pain to keep the headphones in my ear, they would always fall out. I also had AirPods and I don’t understand the love for them.. awful sound quality and they hurt my ears after 20 minutes of wear. Powerbeat Pro’s are legit and worth the money. A little annoyed it took this long for the rest of the colors but whatever, I’m not that pressed about it.

What's wrong with the statement is the word 'nothing':- "We listened to real athletes and we heard that nothing was more important than sound" is the fact that to athletes there are a multitude of things more important than sound, for example fitness, strength (physical and mental), diet, focus, discipline and recovery are all more important than sound.
Music can help with focus but to say nothing is more important than sound is in my opinion BS.
I'm a little surprised that Apple didn't release these new colours with matching coloured cases.
Not a biggie of course, but they used to be pretty big on the aesthetics of little details like this.

If you're still in that return window, yes. If you prefer a different color, why not? Unless the store is out of the way...
Yeah, I doubt they will. But then again I usually have a case on mine anywho.
I’ve majored in marketing actually. Nothing sounds appealing about “moss”.
Did you do the survey? Maybe the number 1 response on a majority of responses was sound? You really don’t know. So bold whatever words you want. At the end of the day you really are just guessing. You are just trying to be contradictory.
So you think real athletes would answer an apple survey and say sound is more important than fitness in their chosen field of athletics, come on you don't really believe that do you?
The price tag.

Post link of user replaceable battery models that are similar.

Are they still bass heavy like the original and 2's?
I believe that you don’t know what the survey showed. You thinking that you do is the unbelievable part.
Me too. I didn't even realize the other color options weren't available when I bought mine. I don't like the contrasting "b" on the colored ones - too kitchy for my taste. Love my PB Pros!
I do like the way the navy ones look. But i'll probably end up just getting black...

Which headphones have replaceable batteries?
I have X3s. Don't tempt me [wallet]
Kate's mum would like to talk to you...

No - bassy, but not overwhelmingly so...in fact not at all the signature Beats sound...not flat either, but far more balanced.
I thoroughly enjoy the sound signature from mine and I listen to a wide variety of music/spoken word audio
Perhaps he was using the hearing aid function. Way to judge someone for being a cock.
