Beats Fit Pro vs. AirPods Pro | Which Is the Best Choice for You?

Although there was a time when the future of Apple’s Beats brand was uncertain, it’s clear that the standalone brand is too important for Apple to ignore. Now, with almost the entire lineup of Beats headphones completely revamped and refreshed, Apple effectively has a whole other family of headphones in direct competition with its premium AirPods brand.

With almost all current Beats earphones including the same capabilities that Apple’s AirPods have become known for — including the same H1 chip — it’s muddied the waters somewhat. Put simply, AirPods are no longer the best choice for iPhone users by default, and there are some pretty compelling reasons why you might want to consider a Beats product instead.

This has become even more pronounced with last week’s introduction of the new Beats Fit Pro, a new set of true wireless earbuds that deliver almost all the features of the AirPods Pro — for $50 less.

So, which should you pick? Well, with the products offering such similar capabilities now, the answer is “it depends.” Read on for 11 things to know about the new Beats Fit Pro vs. the AirPods Pro.
