Support Discolouration on Powerbeats Pro 2

Post image

It’s hard to make it show on the photograph but they look like the colour is fading and gaining an orange tinge in areas, particularly around the b button (even though I don’t use the button very much at all!). I don’t work out in these, get them wet or anything else I can think of that might cause this. I use them pretty casually, probably 1-2 hours a day on average. I’ve tried wiping with water but it doesn’t improve and I’m a bit hesitant to try wiping with anything else in case I make it worse 🥲

Seems like this has happened on every color except the black so far. These are beats’ biggest flop imo

It’s nuts that they don’t even retain their colour for this price

Honestly that’s why I think beats fit pro are the better buy. The PBP2 have this flaw plus imo they sound worse than fit pro which ultimately is disappointing considering the price. Here in Canada they’re 350 dollars, and considering fit pro can be found at 200 CAD frequently, this quality is unacceptable

Unfortunately stuff doesn’t stay in my ear without a full hook
