Expensive and terrible product quality!
Paired with an iphone I found the range and sound quality to be good. But when paying so much for a bluetooth headset I expect a better build quality! The remote broke within 3 months of use running and in the gym and I was told at the service that the one year limited warranty doesn't apply...

very poor
This is the second set and now this set doesn't work properly either. First set volume panel on the cord fell apart. Second set the volume button and stop button doesn't work at all.

Great Service and Product
My order arrived on time and the Beats are awesome. I wear them at work every day, charge them during lunch to keep me going. Very comfortable and easy to use. Excited that they work with my phone, too. That was a bonus!!

Does not sync with Audio
if all you want to do is listen to music - these headphones sound great. However, if you watch a lot of videos or wish to do both, these headphones have a compatibility issue with iPads and iPhones in which the audio and video does not sync.
Pros:
- Great sound....if listening to music
Cons:
- Delayed sync w audio on iPads and Iphones

"You are paying mostly for the brand"
In my opinion, id say that when you purchase the powerbeats 2, you are paying for the fact that they are beats rather than the earbuds. these earbuds have excellent sound quality and are absolutely comfortable, the problem is the price.
Pros:
- Excellent quality
- durable
- comfortable
- look good
Cons:
- Price

Just ok
These headphones are uncomfortable. The sound quality: just ok. They don't feel soft. In fact they are just too hard and heavy.

These die really early into use
Like other purchasers have said, for some weird reason these just die on you. They have never been dropped or damaged in anyway; they just stopped working. Working with he warranty company that is supposed to protect you informs me that I need the original receipt....seriously?

Beats Powerbeats2 Wireless Review
The Beats Powerbeats2 is a gym-focused Bluetooth earphone pair with a frequency response that will only appeal to extreme bass fans. Some audiophiles may thumb their noses at Beats' bass-boosted, celebrity-endorsed speakers and headphones, but the brand helped bring better sound to the forefront for otherwise casual listeners. But despite my gratitude toward Beats for making people care about audio again, I can also recognize when the company's gone too far with its emphasis on bass. The Powerbeats2 Wireless ($161.09 at Amazon) is a $199.95, gym-friendly Bluetooth earphone pair with some vague LeBron James-branding and more deep bass response than anyone really needs. Unlike some more balanced offerings in the Beats lineup, this pair has almost no high-mid sculpting to counteract the thunderous boosted bass. These earphones are good-looking and distortion free, but excellent, exercise-focused Bluetooth pairs like the Jabra Rox ($161.09 at Amazon) and Editors' Choice JayBird BlueBuds X ($161.09 at Amazon) can be found for far less. DesignThe Powerbeats 2 are available in the established Beats color schemes o...
Pros:
- Incredibly powerful, robust bass response
- Does not distort even at top volumes
- Sweat-and water-resistant
- Multiple eartip options
Cons:
- Overpriced
- Audio balance is completely shifted to the bass realm, with very little high-mid presence
