• The Beats Powerbeats3 Wireless sound great, as long as you get a good fit, otherwise they sound thinner than they should 
• The sound is the same as of Powerbeats2 Wireless, Apple improved the fit but not sound 
• Many cheaper options available for $100 that pump better sound to your ears 
• Overblown bass is ideal for training, but not good if you want a more laid-back, relaxed listening 
• Powerbeats 3 can be played very loud, but at maximum volume there is a lot of distortion and it can be painful to listen 
• The micro-USB charger is useless for apple users, which means an extra cord needs to carry during travel
