Our Verdict

Beats Fit Pro True Wireless

Beats Solo Buds True Wireless

The Beats Solo Buds and the Beats Fit Pro True Wireless are intended for different purposes. The Fit Pro are meant for working out, have added stability fins, and are IPX4 rated against water splashes. On the other hand, the Solo deliver audio more consistently between wears and can be connected to two devices at once (though you can only listen to audio from one device at a time). The Fit Pro also have a more neutral sound with less honk in the mid-range, but they're significantly more expensive than the Solo.
