The Beats audio range is known for its appeal to sportsmen, but mostly as a way of avoiding conversation while walking to and from the team coach. The Powerbeats3 Wireless, however, are suitable for use while actually doing exercise.They're Bluetooth-bas...

There's a lot to consider when buying a pair of sports earphones. You can either opt for the "cheap as possible, don't care if they break, buy new ones if they do," approach, or spend a bit more money on something that will sound good, work well and is c...

Bass heavy audio won't be for all, not exactly elegant...

The Powerbeats 3 aren't the best in-ears around from an audio perspective, but the fact they keep going and going, stay securely in your ears thanks to those ear hooks and pump the bass will be a huge draw to many. As will the W1 chip's pairing sequence...

When Apple released their iPhone 7 it was missing a certain 3.5mm jack that we've all come to assume was going to be there. Their reasoning was that everything is going to be wireless soon anyway. I'm still not a fan of getting rid of the headphone jack...

So that makes the BeatsX the winner. We didn't get to it, but another major factor to think about is price. At $149 the BeatsX are also the most affordable of the three. Of course, if you're in the market for a pair of fitness headphones obviously the Pow...
