If sound quality is a priority and you mainly listen at home or during travel, Bang and Olufsen Beoplay H95, with better overall sound and active noise cancelling, is superior. These headphones excel for TV and gaming due to high-quality sound and low latency. However, they are less suitable for exercise due to their size and weight. On the other hand, Beats Fit Pro is more affordable, excels in portability and is sweatproof, making them ideal for active use. They offer good noise isolation and are optimized for Apple devices, which could be important if you use those products. Choose the Beats Fit Pro if you require earbuds for commutes, workouts, and have a tighter budget. Give Feedback

Lili Katz | January 2024
"The Beats Fit Pro is just as easy to use with an Android device as it is with an iPhone. It seems Apple-owned Beats is trying to appeal to a wider market, and it works. The Fit Pro fits like a pro with the ear tip fit test and multiple ear tips. Sound quality is sure to please most athletes, but the Fit Pro is just at home in the office as it is in the gym. The main factor holding the Beats Fit Pro back from gold is the price."
