Some comparison pics with AirPods to show the colour contrast between the two

My wife's ivory ones arrived yesterday, and I have a navy set I ordered today for local pickup later today.

Not seen any real pics/reviews of the navy.... YouTubers seem to clickbait with a thumbnail of the blue but then feature the black. :rolleyes:
 
Here you guys go, Navy powerbeats, very nice dark navy and dark gold lettering.

And apparently all colors of powerbeats seem to be available in stores for pick up today, at least here in the LA region.

Also very interesting. The ‘b’ Beats logo on the earphones looks silver/white if looked at head on but turns gold in appearance if looked at an angle . Cool effect.

Got Ivory this morning - glad I waited for the Ivory. They're visually pleasing compared to the black pair.
 
Had my navy PBPs for a few days now and love them. I'm using the largest tips, although ideally could do with one between the largest and next down (largest is too bassy and next one is too tinny). Better than AirPods for exercise, and my missus has run several 5 and 10k's with hers and is well impressed.

Will be keeping my AirPods 2s as they are a different use case than the PBPs
 
Got my PBP in navy from John Lewis (UK retailer) as I wanted the two year guarantee.

I got super lucky as I signed up for an email alert, and by that evening the colour was in stock and delivered two days after.

Jury is still out on the sound quality / passive noise cancelling / isolation, but I’m playing about with the tips! So far finding them a lot easier to put on then reviewers suggested; and in love with the colour!
