Beats and Nike Debut Co-Branded Powerbeats Pro 2, On Sale March 20

The limited edition delivers Nike styling without hardware changes at a $249.99 list price.

Overview

  • This first-ever Beats hardware co-brand splits logos across the buds, with the Nike Swoosh on the right and the Beats “b” on the left, and adds a matte black Volt-speckled case featuring “Just Do It” inside the lid.
  • Core specs are unchanged from the standard model, including Apple’s H2 chip, Adaptive ANC, Transparency, Adaptive EQ, and built-in heart rate monitoring that syncs with Apple’s Fitness app and Nike Run Club.
  • The sport-focused design retains wraparound earhooks, IPX4 sweat and water resistance, on-device controls, and support for Spatial Audio.
  • Battery life remains rated at up to 45 hours with the case (about 10 hours per bud), with fast charging delivering roughly 90 minutes from a five-minute top-up and a case that supports wireless and USB‑C charging.
  • Early access rolled out via Nike’s SNKRS on March 17, with a limited general release on March 20 at nike.com, apple.com, and select Apple Stores in multiple countries for $249.99 (₹29,900 in India) alongside a LeBron James–led “Keep Your Head in The Game” campaign.
