What’s so special about Beats Pro Fit?
Beats Fit Pro are Apple’s earbuds that provide active noise cancellation features along with a transparency listening mode like the pricier AirPods Pro. On top of that, Beats Pro Fit support an adaptive frequency equalizer, Apple’s computational audio feature designed to optimize the sound coming out of each earbud to the shape of your ear.
Thanks to onboard sensors and Apple’s H1 chip, Beats Pro Fit support one-touch pairing, automatic device switching and spatial audio with dynamic head tracking. And since these are fitness-focused earbuds, they’re IPX4 sweat and water-resistance and sport secure-fit wingtips that help keep them in place, even when in active use.
