I test earbuds, and my favorite pair are heavily reduced at Amazon
SAVE $40: As of Jan. 3, the Beats Fit Pro are on sale for $159.99 at Amazon. That's a 20% saving on the list price.
Beats are easily one of the most recognizable brands in the headphones and earbuds game. They've long been known for their incredible sound quality and punchy bass, and pair this with impeccable design and you really have one of the most reliable names in the audio field. As of Jan. 3, my favorite pair of earbuds (the Beats Fit Pro) are on sale at Amazon for $159.99.
They may be small and seemingly unimpressive, but they are a powerhouse of sound. With an immersive sound quality and incredible noise cancellation, they are an excellent choice for music lovers. There is also the option of varying degrees of sound cancellation, with modes to help keep you aware of your surroundings — perfect for exercising outdoors and generally remaining safe.
The Beats Fit Pro also boast a seriously impressive battery life, with a single charge lasting days. Speaking from experience, one charge lasts many, many hours, and you won't find yourself charging these often.
But the big plus for me is the fit. The silicon tip slides into your ear seamlessly, lodging in your ear and staying put for all types of activity and all intensities. I've tested these during all kinds of activities and have found them to stay perfectly secure.
And with this latest Amazon discount, I can't recommend the Beats Fit Pro enough.
