The current Powerbeats Pro, introduced in 2019, has been well-praised for its durability and fitness-oriented design. It initially features circular ear hooks, Apple’s H1 chip, nine hours of battery life, and support for Apple’s “Hey Siri.”
According to 9to5Mac, it’s anticipated that Powerbeats Pro 2 may include newer advancements such as a custom processor for improved cross-platform compatibility. Features that could also be potentially included are Apple’s Find My support and one-touch pairing for both iPhone and Android users, offering more access across both ecosystems.
Other than this teaser, Beats has not yet revealed any other specific details about its new and upcoming successor, aside from confirming its release in 2025.
