Overall I am happy with the Powerbeats pro, I tried the new Sony WF1000XM3, while they sound way better and have nice noise cancelling feature they were absolutely garbage in terms of connectivity, they kept disconnecting randomly and that was the last straw.

With the Powerbeats you get he H1 chip, the intervention is fantastic just like the AirPods, and they fit Nicely. They won’t come out.

I am one of the unlucky souls that the AirPods didn’t fit.

The main gripe I have with these earbuds is the case, this is a gigantic case that will will leave a huge bulk anywhere you put them.

I do wish they had a even softer material for the ear piece so they wouldn’t start hurting after prolonged use. The plastic rubber feels solid, just not as soft as other competitors.

Fully agree with you, my ears hurt after a while, but other that that, it's perfectly synced into my apple ecosystem of phone+watch :)
