Looking for workout headphones? I'd buy the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 over the AirPods Pro 3 in the Cyber Monday sales

For fitness fans, cheap headphones that barely block out your gym's terrible music just won't cut it anymore now that there are so many great, feature-stuffed alternatives available. The best pair of workout headphones to get this Cyber Monday? For me, it's got to be the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 – even over the new AirPods Pro 3.

Right now, you can get the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 for $199.95 at Walmart (was $249.95) in all colors, saving you a cool $50. Even though the AirPods are also on offer – you can get AirPods Pro 3 for $219.99 at Amazon (was $249) – if you're just looking for workout buds, I'd get the Beats.

Why? Well, for one, they're $20 cheaper. For another, the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 pack the same great H2 audio chip as the AirPods Pro 3, and the same heart rate tracking feature. They also last longer, with 10 hours of listening time (buds) and 45 hours (case) compared to the AirPods Pro 3's 8 hours (buds) and 24 hours (case).

Sure, AirPods Pro 3 has live translation that works with the latest iPhones and other features, but if you're looking for a great workout headphone option, the Beats take it.

Apple AirPods Pro 3: was $249 now $219.99 at Amazon

No, it's not a massive discount, but it's the first real one we've had, and it's a decent one, taking 12% off the usual price of Apple's newest and most advanced ANC earbuds. The main difference between the Pro 3 and Pro 2 is the addition of heart rate sensing and Live Translation using Apple Intelligence, and the ANC is vastly improved, as I covered at length in my AirPods Pro 3 review – which is no small statement given that the ANC in the AirPods Pro 2 was already excellent.
