Yes, returns will work the same as a normal product return. The customer is able to return the Powerbeats Pro within a 14 day period commencing after the purchase. The Powerbeats themselves will need to be in virtually the same condition as they were when initially bought - i.e. no major scratches or signs of damage.
Early reviews which only include minimal listening time state sound quality is better and quite amazing
Powerbeats pro
Yes! They absolutely can.
9 hours each giving you 18 hours of music. I use them every single day from gym to work.
At around 6 pm or so I get the low battery notification.
Hope this helps.
Are the Airpods significantly smaller?
The case is 3" Long x 3" Wide x 2" High.
Whether it fits in your pocket will depend on the size of your pocket.
It is significantly larger than the Airpods case.
Yeah. If you go to the Beats website, it says that you can use the controls on the earphones.

1-year Apple warranty
Yes you can. Apple outlines how to do it on their website (I tried to post the link in apple to it, but it wouldn't let me).
I did try to take it to the Apple store to purchase it there, but for some reason, my product was not coming up in their system so I just called the apple number they provided in the link above and purchased it that way. It was very simple and a flat $29 rate. The apple "specialist" did seem confused on how the new AppleCare+ for headphones/earphones works because he mentioned it was a subscription service (i.e. $29/month) but I highly doubt that as from the Apple description there is no mention of subscription warranty like how it can be for MacBooks/iphones. I believe its a 1 time charge for 2 years of coverage with the applicable deductibles.
Based on the YouTube videos from the tech bloggers, the sensor detects when you take them out of your ear. So, as long as they are in your ear, they are on. If you take them out, and put them down and they are idle, then they will go to sleep.
I do, so I'd say yes. I'm sure that the case has circuitry to avoid overcharging, and possibly toasting the battery. A higher output charger may actually allow them to charge a little faster too.
I wear glasses and want to know if the Powerbeat Pro fits comfortably while wearing glasses.
Based on the pictures, they are actually smaller. But, it's going to really depend on what feels right to you. There are tech bloggers with YouTube videos up and one guy has them on with his thick arm sunglasses and say they feel fine. I wear my Powerbeats 2's & 3's with glasses and sunglasses just fine and they feel great. Since Powerbeats Pro are smaller, I imagine they are going to feel fine too. You should go try them on if you can.
For example I would leave the case at home when I go to work and just bring the headphones with me.
Yes you can, but depends how long you will be out, and how long you will be calling with, or how long are you going to listen music, for my experience I use just ones at time, listen music the whole day at work but I call a lot too like almost 7 hrs latter I have change it, So yes you can leave the case at home...! anyway each earbud have the same controls, MFB, Volume +-. I hope this can answer your question.
Is it possible to use them at the same time with my iPhone and my work laptop that is running Window
You can pair with as many non Apple device's as you wish. However you will have to go into that devices Bluetooth settings to select the Powerbeats Pro for playback when switching between non Apple devices.
AppleTV has Bluetooth audio out so you can receive audio from your AppleTV to Powerbeats Pro. You can only connect one set of headphones and there will be no audio sent to your TV when you connect the PowerBeats.
You can connect them via the settings/remotes and devices/Bluetooth or by swiping down while playing a video in order to bring up the subtitle and audio options. You can also hold down the play/pause button prior to opening an app and select them from there.
No, because each earbud was make for each ear, so that's not possible
using the wireless headphones at the maximum volume drains the battery faster, so what is the defaul
Other non-iOS smartphones?
Yes. Powerbeats Pro, just like AirPods, can be paired to non-Apple devices but will be treated as a normal Bluetooth accessory. This means you won’t have the same seamless pairing like on iOS but can still use them like normal earbuds.
I success to connect my new Beats Powerbeats Pro to my Dell laptop (window 10), I can hear the sound
IPX4. Which means they're certified to hold up to water splashing against the enclosure from any direction, but have the potential to fail when immersed or exposed to jets of water.
Yes, the PowerBeats Pro have a sensor on each ear to identify when they are removed. They will auto pause and auto resume.
