Beats' new Powerbeats Pro 2 earbuds just went on sale for the second time at $50 off
One of the best pairs of workout earbuds received a long-awaited update earlier this year. Back in February, Beats finally launched a follow-up to its beloved fitness earbuds after making runners wait over five years. If you've been waiting a little longer to upgrade to the Powerbeats Pro 2 without paying full price, several retailers have launched discounts for only the second time. Take $50 off at Amazon and Best Buy with these all-time low tech deals.
Beats Powerbeats Pro 2
One of the most eagerly awaited sequels in the world of tech just went on sale. The Powerbeats Pro 2 upgrade the most beloved workout earbuds on the market and come in four new colors. Mike Andronico's glowing review is convincing me to ditch the Bose Ultra Open buds I use when working out in favor of these newer buds, which are $50 off for only the second time. In the world of workout earbuds, there's one brand that has consistently released the most popular options: Beats. Its headphones have been topping the charts at CNN Underscored for ages, and its new Powerbeats Pro 2 should be following suit. Andronico has been covering consumer electronics for over a decade. So when he was impressed by the company's latest, I knew these earbuds were the real deal.
Today's offer makes that endorsement even better. It's only the second time these Beats headphones have gone on sale since launching in February. The first and only other discount was back during the Memorial Day festivities, a deal that was so popular it quickly sold out. So, if today's rehash of that all-time low from the holiday weekend catches your eye, it'll be worth adding to your cart sooner rather than later. Shipping times are already beginning to slip, but there's a chance you'll still be able to have these delivered as a last-minute Father's Day gift.

Why wait for Prime Day? Beats Solo 4 are my go-to headphones, and they just hit a record-low $99 at Amazon
I know I'm the odd man out for this, but I'm not big on active noise canceling. I usually wear my headphones while I'm out and about, and I like to still stay connected to the world around me while I'm enjoying my music. That's why the Beats Solo 4 have been my go-to headphones for a while now, and you can snag them for 50% off in this killer Amazon deal. Best of all, you don't even have to wait until Prime Day to save big. Right now, you can grab the Beat Solo 4 for just $99 at Amazon, bringing them down to the lowest price we've ever seen for these headphones. For under $100, these headphones are a solid pick for anyone looking for dependable performance and great sound quality. The Beats Solo 4 might not feature noise canceling, but they make up for it by sounding pretty good. They're comfortable as well thanks to Beats new foam, and they fold up super small so that they can fit into any bag. There's also loads of battery life — 50 hours, to be exact. We've never seen them cheaper than this, so grab them while you check: $99 @ Best Buy Modeled after the Beats Studio Pro, the Beats Solo 4 offer the same great sound quality and comfortable design but at a more affordable price and without noise canceling. I own a pair of Beats Solo 4, and they've been my go-to companion for running errands for the last year. When my colleague Kate reviewed the Beats Solo 4, she highlighted its impressive 50 hours of battery life, and it's one of my favorite perks too. I've found I routinely go several days of using these headphones without having to top up the battery. You can use these wirelessly — whether you're on Android or iOS — but plugging them in via the included 3.5mm cable unlocks even better sound. The Solo 4 supports hi-res audio over a wired connection, making them a great match for lossless tracks from services like Apple Music and Amazon Music Unlimited. While they might not compete with higher-end wireless models, for the price, the Solo 4 deliver solid audio quality. Comfort is another strong point, thanks to redesigned ear cushions originally introduced with the Studio Pro. This updated foam makes the Solo 4 comfortable enough for long listening sessions without my ears starting to hate me. While they didn't quite earn a spot on our list of the best wireless headphones, the Beats Solo 4 are still an excellent option for anyone after a dependable, great-sounding pair of over-ear headphones. And for less than $100, they're an even better value than ever. Looking for even more ways to save on headphones? Be sure to check out our headphones deals page while you're at it.
