Beats Launches Powerbeats Fit With More Flexible Wingtip, Smaller Case, $199 Price

The move clarifies a two-tier fitness lineup by keeping this $199 model focused on comfort with H1 features, leaving heart‑rate sensing plus H2 to Powerbeats Pro 2.

Overview

  • Powerbeats Fit are available to order now for $199.99 in the U.S. with in‑store availability starting October 2, and India pricing set at Rs 24,900.
  • The update centers on wearability with a wingtip that is 20% more flexible, a charging case that is 17% smaller, and IPX4 resistance for both buds and case.
  • Beats includes four silicone ear tip sizes (XS, S, M, L) and offers four colors: Jet Black, Gravel Gray, Spark Orange, and Power Pink.
  • Core features carry over on Apple’s H1 platform, including Active Noise Cancelling, Transparency, Adaptive EQ, Personalized Spatial Audio, Find My, and on‑device physical controls, with a Beats app on Android for pairing, controls, and a Fit Test.
  • Battery life is rated at up to 7 hours per earbud and up to 30 hours with the case, with Fast Fuel delivering about an hour of playback from a 5‑minute charge.
