The previous model was better

comfort while running, cycling
waterproof (also in the shower)
battery lasts a long time
Sound has become less

In retrospect I would have preferred the slightly older backbeat fit (a €10 more expensive but not in stock).

This new version seems slightly less in terms of sound quality. Responds just a few seconds too slow when you turn it on or off. Volume button works with touch, so not with gloves on.

You can also pair it with a MacBook (which it recognizes as "Phone 2") - but then everything goes wrong in the details. That's a shame. Plantronics helpdesk wrote:

"We would like to inform you that the Backbeat Fit headset is not compatible with the MAC machine or PC's internal Bluetooth, and it is only designed to work with smart-phone and tablet. If you try to pair it with PC's/MAC's internal Bluetooth then all the features will not work and even the headset with not work properly due to Bluetooth profile mismatching.

Before this I had the pastor who broke down after 3 years. Always very happy to walk with you. The ears were very rusty towards the end. This new version is watertight and I expect this problem to occur less here.

After a few times of walking noticed that it is very comfortable. The maximum volume is lower than its predecessor. When connected to my iPod Nano, sometimes it's just not loud enough for me, depending on the song. It also no longer says when the maximum volume is reached. Hopefully this will be fixed with a firmware update.

The biggest innovation is the service. The play/pause button is a physical button and works very well. The volume button is a touch button and it doesn't work very well for me. Doesn't work (well) with gloves, cold hands,... If it does work, there is quite a bit of delay between pressing the button and the action being performed. For me, this should also have been a physical button. You can't "swipe" about it either, so I don't really understand the added value.

Review is 9,2 out of 10.

Very comfortable headphones with good ambient sound.

Stays in place perfectly while running
Still hear the environment
Waterproof
Slightly less comfortable than the old one

It fits very well, is already my 3rd BBfit. The new one is slightly less comfortable than the predecessor as I think it is made of slightly stiffer plastic.
