One of the best discounts of the Black Friday weekend is still running, surprisingly enough, for the time being – in fact, you can get the Beats Fit Pro for as low as £129 if you go for the white colour.
It's not often that we get to call a Black Friday deal unprecedented, but our favourite product that Beats makes just went to its all-time low of £149, and since then, it has continued to drop with the white variant of the Beats Fit Pro going for £129 at Amazon!
Several other Beats models are discounted too, but this is easily one of the best bargains we've spotted during the Black Friday week, and it's a no-brainer if you're on the lookout for workout earbuds that work just as well for everyday life – or you're shopping for a gift for the resident gym addict in your life (we all know one).
Why do we like these so much? Well, they're designed with comfortable silicone wing tips, and this keeps them secure in your ears. That's ideal whether you're working out or you're just not sure if your buds will stay in place during the walk to work. None of us wants to be losing expensive headphones down the drain.
They also offer top-quality noise-cancelling, transparency, and immersive spatial audio, as well as a dynamic bass-heavy sound profile and loads of battery life. What's not to love?
Pros
- Fantastic sound quality
- Excellent noise-cancelling
- Secure fit
- Great transparency mode
Cons
- Case slightly larger than rivals
- No wireless charging
Even years after their release, these are still our go-to buds when heading to the gym. We find the bass-boosted sound more motivating for workout playlists, so they feel a bit better designed for the treadmill than some of the audiophile-level pairs we might use elsewhere.
What to Read Next
They're stuffed full of great features for Apple users, especially the "spatial audio" mode which makes your favourite movies and shows on Disney+, Netflix, Apple TV+ and more feel so much more immersive.
In our hands-on testing, we found that the noise-cancelling is more than good enough to bring silence to a busy tube carriage and that the transparency mode makes it feel like you barely even have headphones in. You could keep these in while ordering your morning coffee, just by using transparency to enhance the sounds of the world around you.
While their battery life isn't class-leading, you are getting a full six hours of uninterrupted listening time, which goes up to 24 hours once you factor in the extra juice in the charging case. That case is probably the only real downside to these buds, as it's a bit larger than the competition and, unfortunately, doesn't have any wireless charging support.
These are just minor issues, though – there really are no big downsides to these buds, especially if you're after something that'll stay put and not go hurtling out of your ears!
They've never been at this low of a price, so we recommend you don't wait around to snap these up. This deal will disappear quickly – multiple colours are already out of stock on John Lewis – and while we hadn't expected it to stick around after Cyber Monday on November 27, multiple shades are starting to revert to higher prices on Amazon now too.
