Powerbeats Pro Will Be Available to Preorder on May 3rd Ahead of May 10th Release

Apple will make the new wire-free Powerbeats Pro earphones available for preorder on May 3rd at 7am PT in the United States and Canada, reports 9to5Mac.

The earphones are expected to arrive in stores a week later on Friday, May 10th.

"Powerbeats Pro is a harmonious blend of premium sound, fit and functionality. Powerbeats are already the #1 fitness headphones in the world and they are now untethered, with all the benefits of the Apple H1 chip,” said Luke Wood, president of Beats. “No longer do you have to choose between performance and practicality—it delivers the best on both fronts.”


Highlights:
● Totally wireless high-performance earphones
● Up to 9 hours of listening time (more than 24 hours with charging case)
● Adjustable, secure-fit earhooks for lightweight comfort and stability
● Reinforced design for sweat and water resistance during tough workouts
● Volume and track controls on each earbud, voice capability, and Auto Play/Pause
● Powerful, balanced sound with dynamic range and noise isolation
● “Hey Siri” hands-free voice2 and improved connection speed3 via the Apple H1 headphone chip
● Earbuds connect independently via Class 1 Bluetooth for extended range and fewer dropouts
● With Fast Fuel, a 5-minute charge gives 1.5 hours of playback when battery is low1
● Enhanced phone call performance and call handling from either earbud

Powerbeats Pro will be available in black for $249.95 at launch; however, ivory, navy, and moss colors will arrive later this summer.
