Beats PowerBeats 3 review

Fitness-focussed in-ears get the W1 treatment

Great battery life ; Solid bass response ; Good wireless range

A bit bass-heavy ; Fit could be better ; High price

Solidly built and with a great battery life, the PowerBeats 3 get a lot of things right - but at this price point they need to do a little more than this to make them a worthwhile purchase. They're acceptable all-rounders, but there are cheaper...

Pricey, but still the best sports headphones iPhone 7 owners can get

Apple W1 chipset boosts range and battery life ; Great performance ; Comfortable fit

Micro-USB charging ; You'll need an iPhone 7 to get the best from it

Review: Powerbeats3 with Apple W1 chip are the most reliable Bluetooth headphones we've ever used

Bluetooth audio --?especially when exercising --?has always been "good enough,"has always been "good enough," but never great. Apple's W1 chip in its latest headphones lineup changes that, and the proprietary wireless technology steals the show in its...

At $200, the Powerbeats3 are not exactly an impulse buy. In fact, Apple's own forthcoming AirPods (which also include the W1 chip, as well as a number of other advantages) are $40 cheaper.
