Still live: First chance to save on new Powerbeats Pro 2 – open-box units now $64 off with full warranty

Reg. $250/$186

Apple’s Beats brand unleashed the brand new Powerbeats Pro 2 to more than positive praise across just about anyone who had a chance to give them a go – we said they “tick all the boxes with heart rate monitoring, slimmer design, H2 chip, more” after going hands-on back in February. But much like the other recent Beats releases, price drops have been nearly non-existent in the first few months on the market. We did detail some trade-in offers, but we are yet to see some actual deals…until today. 

Both Amazon and Best Buy still have the Powerbeats Pro 2 listed at the full $249.99, but Best Buy does have the black model “excellent condition” open-box units now up for grabs down at $185.99 shipped – this listing also ships with a full 1-year warranty. 

 Here the details on Best Buy’s open-box “excellent condition” units:

This is an Open Box product, which means it’s been opened and returned by another customer. Each open box item is unique, and we offer different discounts based on the product’s condition. To see a product’s condition before purchasing, visit us in store.

• Works and looks like new.
• Includes all original parts, packaging and accessories (or suitable replacement).

Today’s open-box deal knocks $64 off the list price to deliver the lowest price we have tracked from a reputable dealer since they hit the market earlier this year. 

Beats says the Powerbeats Pro 2 are the “most advanced headphone “ it has ever made, with “1,500 hours of athlete testing” and rave reviews from our friends over at 9to5Mac. They carry the Apple H2 chip with ANC, Transparency mode, and Personalized Spatial Audio alongside a 33% smaller case with USB-C and wireless charging, up to 45 hours of battery life, built-in heart rate monitoring, and an IPX4-rated sweat and water resistance. 

You can activate Siri, take calls, and leverage a series of iPhone-specific features – “one-touch pairing, automatic switching, Audio Sharing, hands-free Siri, and Find My” – alongside compatibility with Android devices too – “the Beats App unlocks one-touch pairing, Heart Rate Monitoring, customizable controls, battery status widgets, and Locate My Beats.”

A complete rundown of the user experience and feature list awaits in our hands-on feature right here.
