Beats’ Powerbeats Pro 2 are lighter, smarter, and packed with ANC, yet they’ve just hit a record‑low price. Cyber Weekend makes them cheaper than ever, raising the question: Are they the best workout earbuds for active users and athletes?
Apple’s Beats are part of the Cyber Weekend sale, and those with an active lifestyle or love for sports will find this deal on the Powerbeats Pro 2 hard to ignore. The noise-cancelling wireless earbuds are currently priced at $199, which is $50 off the usual $249 at Amazon.
This is the lowest price yet for Beats’ latest active earbuds. The sale includes four colorways: Jet Black, Quick Sand, Hyper Purple, and Electric Orange.
Who Are the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 For?
Beats introduced the Powerbeats Pro 2 (review) earlier this year, marking one of the longest refresh cycles in headphones since the original Powerbeats Pro launched in 2019. The wait was worth it, as the new generation brings meaningful improvements that users will appreciate.
The Powerbeats Pro 2 retain the secure over‑ear hook design but are slimmer and lighter. This ensures a snug fit during workouts and sports activities. They are sweat resistant, and the finish helps prevent stains and odors from building up.

A major upgrade is the addition of Active Noise Cancellation, which suppresses ambient noise so users can focus in noisy environments or simply relax with music. There is also a Transparency Mode that blends outside sounds naturally with your audio.
On sound quality, the Powerbeats Pro 2 are powered by Apple’s H2 chipset. Audio is cleaner and less distorted, with more balanced bass and mids. For real‑time adjustment, the adaptive equalizer delivers consistent, rich sound. Meanwhile, they are the first to get a heart rate sensor, which is an extra wellness feature to check your heart beats during training and exercise, which is a helpful insight.
Battery life is longer too, rated at 10 hours from the earbuds and up to 35 hours total with the charging case. Fast charging gives 3 hours of listening time from just a 3‑minute charge.
With these upgrades and the current discount, the Powerbeats Pro 2 are a practical choice for fitness enthusiasts and everyday listeners alike.
