Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 with heart rate tracking are just $199.95 — save $50

As of September 14, Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 earbuds are available for $199.95 on Amazon, marking a 20% discount off their original list price of $249.99. For those seeking workout-friendly earbuds that go beyond simple music playback, the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 present a compelling choice. These earbuds boast built-in heart rate monitoring, enabling users to track their workout progress.

Additionally, they feature a secure ear-hook design to ensure a snug fit during physical activity. The sound quality of these earbuds is exceptional, and they offer customizable levels of noise cancellation. The Active Noise Cancellation mode effectively shields users from external distractions, while the Transparency mode allows outside sounds to penetrate when needed, such as while crossing busy streets or running alongside other athletes.

The main selling point of these earbuds, however, is undoubtedly their heart rate monitoring capability. Equipped with sensors within the earbuds, the device measures pulse rates over 100 times per second, providing real-time feedback during exercise. These earbuds are also rated IPX4, meaning they can withstand sweat as well as splashes of water or rain, making them suitable for various workout environments.

In terms of battery life, the charging case provides up to 45 hours of listening time, and a five-minute "Fast Fuel" charge can extend playback by an additional 1.5 hours. These Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 earbuds are currently on sale at Amazon, allowing consumers to take advantage of the $50 savings.
