In the wake of Apple's "Awe Dropping" event this week, you might think the AirPods Pro 3 are the best fitness earbuds you can get for your iPhone. That might be true, but Apple sells another pair of "pro" earbuds that might make more sense for you, especially if you find traditional earbuds frequently fall out of your ears.
AirPods Pro 3 also have a heart rate monitor, and come with some additional new features, like Fitness app integration. But just because Powerbeats Pro 2 didn't ship with some of these fitness features, that doesn't mean you need the newest AirPods to get them. Beats shared some new iOS 26 features coming to Powerbeats Pro 2 with 9to5Mac, which should come as good news for anyone who already purchased a pair sometime this year.
Like the AirPods Pro 3, Powerbeats Pro 2 will now let you track workouts through the Fitness app. 9to5Mac says you can start one of 50 different workout types on your iPhone, and track your heart rate through your Powerbeats Pro 2.
Apple Fitness+ integration
Powerbeats Pro 2 will have "multiple sources of heart rate data," with the goal of improving accuracy. There's also a broader algorithm update coming to both iOS and Android that will improve performance for faster heart rate readings, and users will get alerts to adjust the fit of their buds in order to improve heart rate tracking.
Single earbud heart rate tracking
In addition to these improvements, you'll be able to track your heart rate with just one earbud. We'll have to test this feature out to see if it's any less reliable than using two buds at once.
Hands-free gestures
Once you update your iPhone, you'll be able to use hands-free gestures to control Siri while wearing Powerbeats Pro 2, similar to the controls you get on certain AirPods. That includes nodding to say yes, or shaking your head to say no when Siri asks you about incoming calls and messages.
