Given a cursory first glance, these might look quite like previous Powerbeats. But the latest incarnation of these truly wireless buds are unique in form. They push upwards and into the inner ear, while the hooks support them from above. Anyone used to in-ear buds will find them comfortable and secure. It actually takes a while to get used to putting them in but the learning curve is worth it.

There are music/call controls and volume controls on both buds, which is a huge boon during workouts – no need to remember which bud to reach for to turn the music up or skip your playlist’s token ballad.

This ambidextrous approach continues with the pairing process. Put one bud in and press play or talk to Siri, or take a call, and it’ll work. Take that one out and put the other in and it’ll work the same. Put both earbuds in and they’ll pair like that and deliver stereo audio (or dual mono if we’re talking calls and talking to Siri).
