Powerbeats Pro Now Available to Pre-Order in U.S. and Canada

What I'm always missing in reviews and articles about these kind of headsets is if they are comfortable wearing for people with glasses.

Big over-ear and on-ear headphones often tend to get a bit painful as they push your ears/glasses/head together. in-ears are the best solution then but often less suitable for sports and such.

It's a bit expensive to just buy all kinds of headphones just to test. And in-ears are never on display in shops to try on (which makes sense ofcourse, for hygienic reasons).

Don't know how lenient Apple is with returns, when it comes to headphones. But Best Buy could care less. I tried out the Beats X when they released. I wasn't too impressed, so I returned them about a week later. They asked me if anything was wrong, I just said I didn't like them, end of story.

Apple is the same. Any reason no problem within 14 days.
 
Curious as to when other colors will drop. Preordered Black, but Navy is looking very nice. But I also don't want to wait essentially all summer just to get Navy.

I have two pairs of PB3s and I wear glasses. No issues wearing both.
 
I have a delivery date of the 14th and I ordered immediately. Disappointing because they initially quoted the 10th.

They NEVER quoted a date of the 10th. Express shipping the instant it went on the store showed at earliest the 13th.

That’s my thing. I never heard an availability date of the 10th from Apple so can’t be mad. Although to be fair. I never heard from Apple that they would go on sale on the 3rd at 10am est and they did so who knows.

I am waiting for a month for my delivery date. I ordered three hours after pre-order was available online. Well that’s a long wait.

Turns out that they are available to pre-order on the UK business apple site.

Surprised I saw them there. Ordered and now processing, but no delivery date. Just the standard, "This item will take longer than usual to ship. As soon as it’s ready, we’ll send you an update and prepare the shipment."

Got my order in a little late - May 14-18 window showing. I hope some of you post when it ships. Sometimes Apple surprises us with slightly early shipping. I think their modus favors conservative estimates much as maps tends to pad its travel estimates.

So are these supposed to show up in stores on Friday or at that pretty much not happening at this point?
 
Hey All,

There’s hope. My Amex was just charged. I have a delivery date of May 14-21. I think we’ll receive them early. Apple doesn’t charge until the product is shipping. Has anyone else been charged?

That’s good! No charge for me yet, but hope I’ll get an update soon
