The default sound is great, and the touch controls work perfectly on the Sport Earbuds.

#BEATS UPDATER DOESNT SUPPORT PWERBEATS3 PORTABLE#
From Apple, to Sennheiser, and beyond, you’re bound to find something portable and effective here. Can anyone try to confirm if maybe the problem is cell service and your location of your workout? Apple support is sending me a box to ship my esrbuds back but it seems that this will continue to happen with any additional Powerbeats I get anyways based on everyone’s comments.Below, you’ll find some of our favorite wireless earbuds that serve as great alternatives to Beats’ offerings. The gym near my home is one story and I don’t have a problem there. The hotel gym is under two stories of hotel rooms and I get very poor cell service there as well. The following Monday, I’m back out of town and in the gym and bam, back to malfunctioning. When I got back home the following weekend, I went for a run outside, which is were I do most of my running and then the earbuds worked like normal again. I tried to reset it numerous times with the help of Apple Support but the earbuds always went back to malfunctioning. Hello everyone, I had my Powerbeats 3 for two months without any problems and then I went out of town and began experiencing crazy malfunctions with my earbuds such as they would skip to different songs, try to open up Siri and would it turn off. How absolutely frustrating!!! I guess these headphones are really made for your active couch potato, and maybe even requires that the active couch potato sit in air conditioning.
In the time in which I could not get them connect, I would see the white led light flash three times and that was it. After I experienced mine turning off less than two miles into my run this morning, it took a few hours before I could get them to turn on and connect again. Despite the fact Apple claims the headphones to be "sweat resistant," the apple support member began to explain to me how different people sweat more or less than others, and that the headphones are not "sweat proof." So, apparently, if you sweet too much over the course of your work out - let's say while training for a marathon like I am - they will naturally get wet from your sweat, and then they will turn off like they are suppose to in some sort of defense. I was just told by an Apple support member that the Powerbeats 3 headphones have a function that causes them to turn off if the device if gets wet.
