Motorola S805 Bluetooth D.J. Style Stereo Headset Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These are now my 5th pair of bluetooth wireless headphones and I think I've finally found one that does just what I want: great sounding streaming music from my iPod and simultaneously make or take calls from my Blackberry.
In my typical fashion, let's begin with the good, move on to the bad and then finish with those things that need improvement.
GOOD
Excellent sound quality - Clear, clean and LOUD. What more can I say about it. This may seem obvious but apparently some people don't understand the many different profiles available with Bluetooth devices and which ones are necessary to get good sound quality from these headphones. In order to hear quality audio, your Bluetooth source must support the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP). Many of the USB dongle devices and quite a few built-in Bluetooth laptops (including MacBooks) and phones DON'T support this profile. How will know? First check the documentation to see if A2DP is listed as a supported profile. If not, try pairing with the headphones. If you hear tinny sounding music in mono, your device probably only supports the Headset and Handsfree (HPF) profiles. You'll need to find some other hardware or maybe a software upgrade.
Convenient - My S805s are paired with my iPod equipped with Wi-Gear's iMuffs MA110 Dock Adapter. This adapter is powered by the iPod and supports both the A2DP and Audio Video Remote Control (AVRCP) profiles allowing the headphone to control the volume, play/pause and next/prev track of the iPod while getting the great sound you expect. With no wires to get tangled or swing around when you move, these are great for workouts on the treadmill or elliptical.
Battery Life - Motorola claims that these fully charged headphones will operate in standby mode for up 30 days! I haven't had an opportunity to test this out and I not quite sure exactly what is "standby" mode, but I do know that the music play time is good for about a week of bus rides and occasional office use--about 15 hours. Not bad for the volume and quality.
Nice carrying case - the S805 comes with a durable semi-rigid zippered ballistic nylon case that holds the headphones with the earpieces folded flat at 2 inches thick. There's even a strap inside to conveniently hold the charger and the wired adapter cable.
Elegant Design - The headphones are very nice to look at once you get past the bulk (more on that next). They are symmetrically designed with a single button on each earpiece. One side controls the phone the other the music. The volume and track skip controls are ingeniously integrated into the rubber trim rings of each earpiece. Twist the left one forward or backward to change the volume or the right one to skip or repeat tracks.
BAD
Bulky - While the over-the-ear design is really effective at blocking outside noise, they are also very large and rather obvious. Especially with the blinking blue lights on the side. This attracts a lot of strange looks since you resemble a Borg. BTW, the blue lights can be turn off but I often forget since they default to "ON" after your recharge.
Cheap plastic parts - These definitely aren't your Bose QuietComforts. Most of the plastic pieces feel very cheap and appear as if they would easily break if dropped. The little rubber flap covering the charging and wired adapter ports is very flimsy and I don't expect it to last very long. The volume adjustment control dial and the track control dial have a lot of slop and wiggle room. I'd have to say that the case is better made than the headphones.
Short Wired Adapter - The wired adapter cord is very short. Less than a meter long so you need to be very close to your wired device.
NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
Scratchy Fabric on Headband - The fabric inside of the headband is same acoustic fabric as the inside of the earpieces. I often take these off and dangle them around my neck but the fabric is kind of irritating. A smooth fabric would be much more comfortable.
Earpiece Cushions - The soft vinyl earpieces aren't too uncomfortable, but the do make the area around my ears all sweaty, especially during a workout. They're also kind of tight so they don't slip off your head but the pressure begin to get uncomfortable after a while. But if don't like the headphones with eartips that go into your ears, these are minor issues.
Complicated Controls - Although two buttons make for elegant design, it also makes for a confusing array of functions that you must remember to control them. Press and hold for 6 seconds for pairing mode. Press and hold for 2 seconds to turn them off. Press, hold and wait for three blinks to turn off. Short press to answer a call, long press to reject a call or answer a call waiting or redial the last call (all depending on the current state). Yikes! That's a lot to remember.
Minimal Instructions - The instruction booklet is a double-sided sheet of paper with a minimal amount of information to get you started. There are two paragraphs of troubleshooting along with a support number and web URL. If you can't get these to work as expected, don't expect to get much help.

Sena Motorcycle Dual Bluetooth Headset and Intercom System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've never owned or used an intercom on a motorcycle before now, so I have nothing to compare this with.
The unit out of the box paired easily with the second unit, my Ipod touch, and one of our two cellphones. I can not get it to pair with my Samsung PDA (which I've successfully paired with other bluetooth devices.) Unit to unit works perfectly. It also works perfectly with my older Motorola razor cellphone. It connects, and allows music playback from my Ipod touch (3g). I cannot control the Ipod with the headset though. But perhaps the Ipod bluetooth doesn't support that (?) The problem with the Ipod is that if you talk too long to your passenger over the intercom, the Ipod will pause, and you can't restart it from the headset. It's too tricky to try and restart while I'm driving, so when that happens, I have to wait until my next stop or pull over. A work around on this is to use the supplied cables and plug the Ipod into the headset. But then, you're messing with cables, and it defeats the whole Bluetooth advantage. I have read reviews on other sites that claim the Sena unit sends a command to pause the Ipod. If that's accurate, then the problem is with the Sena unit, not Apple. However, if you just speak briefly to your passenger, the music comes back on as soon as you click off with the passenger. Also, music over bluetooth will only work with one or the other headset. Your MP3 can't drive both headsets via bluetooth. I mention this, because a lot of folks don't realize this.
Operation is simple, you can leave it on VOX, which will make you and the other rider connect when you speak. Or you can deactivate VOX, and press the side button to connect, then press again when you're done.
We use these with our half helmets. I wear hearing aids, and half helmets are the only helmet I can use my hearing aids with. I sometimes ride with only 1 hearing aid. Either way, with one or both hearing aid in, there is ample volume below about 65 mph to hear fine. Over about 65 mph, the microphone picks up too much wind noise to work well. Couple that with the wind rushing in to a half helmet, and it's only that much harder to hear. Before you buy this for half helmets, read some reviews of other types of intercoms. Some have a mic that touches your throat. Perhaps that would be better in a half helmet, but I really don't know. Anyway, I don't fault Sena for the wind issues in a half helmet. Although it would be sporting of them to mention it in their ad.
Battery life seems pretty good. We set out with two fully charged headsets today. We rode 5 hours with the intercom ON the whole time, with no issues. Recharge time later wasn't long, Less than an hour. Clicking it on and off should extend the battery life.
Bottom line. Except for the Ipod issue, it operates flawlessly. It's not the hot ticket for half helmets though, at least when riding out on the interstate.

Etymotic Research HF2 Earphones / Headset (iPhone Compatible) - Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You've seen those people with earphone-mic combos for those phones - you know, *those* people who walk around, holding the mic up to their mouth, who might as well pull out the earphone and just hold the phone up to their ear. Are they uncomfortable, thinking that the mic won't pick up their voice, or are they compensating for a lackluster microphone? If the latter, that will not be necessary with the Etymotic HF2 earphone headset, whose mic is every bit as strong as the one built into most phones, if not better.
I tested this set with an Iphone 3G, and those on the other end were not able to guess that I was on a headset microphone rather than the Iphone's admittedly high-quality mic - that's a great compliment right there. The mic, which hangs about three inches below the right earphone, seems to be able to filter out background noises, as well. As for controls, it's simple - there's one button on rectangular microphone unit. Press once to answer or hang up a call, twice to send a call to voicemail.
As for sound quality of the headphones, they're fantastic, and that's no surprise given the pedigree associated with the Etymotic name. I'm an Ety fan - I have a pair of Ety ER6i as well as their "big brother" the ER4P, and the sound quality of the HF2 ranks right around the ER6i, which should be excellent for most people. Those not familiar with the "Etymotic sound," it is extremely clean, and many may find it lacking in bass, but it is very true to the recorded sound, unlike many other cheaper (and sometimes similarly priced) earphones. What you hear with Etymotics is a very accurate, if sometimes stark, representation of the sound that the artists captured. They are not good headphones for those looking for huge bass response. Those who enjoy jazz and great detail in their music might just love the Etymotic sound - they truly are an audiophile company. And when it comes to calls, there's also a small thrill to be had that first time you talk to someone and hear them in stereo through these earphones if you've never experienced it before. The world is blocked out due to the earphones' superior sound-dampening abilities, and the caller on the other end is extremely clear.
A note about fit and sound quality: these in-ear 'phone are meant to seat deep in your ear, sealed with your ear canal. When seated properly, they will deliver incredible sound quality and beautiful, solid bass - but not the deep, head-rattling bass you may be accustomed to from other head-and ear-phones. If they aren't seated properly, wet the tip just slightly, insert, and then turn just a bit to get them "snug down." The fit shouldn't hurt, but may feel odd at first. I found it took some getting used to and, yes, you will likely notice some earwax - you are, afterall, closing up your ears, so they will get warm. Clean the triple-flange tips from time to time and make sure your ears are as clean as possible. It sounds like a ritual, but it really is worth it for the extrmely high sound quality these earphones are capable of creating.
Other small details: where the two wires for the earphones connect to join into one is a slider to sinch up the wires . . . I assume if you want them close to your neck? Included on the wire is a clip that I found more annoying and cumbersome than useful. Thoughtful, yes, but not easy to remove, and I feared damaging the wire sleeve in doing so, so it stayed put. It simply made winding the wires up to put into the handy zipped leather pouch a job a little more clumsy than necessary. Also included are foam tips and smaller triple-flange tips for the earphones, replacement filters, and a filter replacement tool.
For owners of the first generation Iphone, the headphone jack is sized to fit into the recessed jack - no need for an awkward adapter.
So why only four stars if I enjoy these so much? (It would really be 4.5 stars if Amazon would let me offer it.) I balk a little at paying almost the price of the 8gb Iphone for a mic/earphone headset, even as high-quality as this one is. Another thing, and this is true of any headset, and so I don't mark this one down for it, your speaking voice does not come through the earphones. Normally that's not such an issue, but when you are listening to the other party in stereo, and you can only hear yourself as if through plugged ears, it's a little disorienting, and I found myself fighting the urge to speak louder. It would be nice if there were some way for your voice to be able to feedback into the earphones.
Overall, however, these are fantastic - miles above most typical headsets, but the price reflects that, too. If you spend a significant amount of time both listening to music and talking on your phone, and you truly treasure sound quality, these may make perfect sense.

Audio Technica ATM75 Headset Microphone Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just got this mic and tried it for the first time - I LOVE it! It does have a wire, but that's OK, I'm a keyboard player and don't move enough to make it matter. The amazing freedom this gave me on the first song was wonderful! Quality was very good, although when I hummed, the mic didn't pick it up - I'll have to fuss with the settings a little more. I used the phantom power from the board and even with monitors in place, got NO feedback, even with effects! Love the fact that it's powered (condenser) instead of dynamic. This is a great mic. Hope it lasts a long time!

Philips Bluetooth Stereo Headset Combo Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The vox340 is a Bluetooth stereo headset with mic that also includes a separate blue tooth transmitter adapter with a 3.5mm plug that plugs into any headphone jack.
It works great as Bluetooth stereo headphones and beats all the FM and 900MHz headphones I have tried over the years. The range is about 25ft when going through the walls where I live. Since stereo operation only requires pairing with the included adapter, makes it possible to listen wirelessly to anything with a stereo jack. I have it plugged into my laptop.
When paired with a cellphone, the vox340 solves the problem of being able to listen to stereo without wires and still be able to switch to talking on the phone without changing to another headset (or removing the stereo headphones/ear buds to put a phone to your ear).
The device has a loop that is worn around the neck and the 2 inch pendant has volume control, on/off, and 2 other buttons that have tape deck like forward/rewind markings. Each ear bud branches off the loop a short distance to reach the ears. It comes with a charger; the batteries are not removeable.
I have only been able to get it to work with the adapter as Bluetooth stereo headphones since pairing is tricky with my cellphone and laptop, but I have not given up making it work with a MacBook Pro.
The manuals included were minimal and only in French and Spanish, no English. I had to get translation help to know what the various blinking LED modes mean and how to do Bluetooth pairing.
After searching and translation help, I found out:
* Bluetooth 1.2 device.
* Alternating red-green LED in the adapter means it is in pairing mode.
* Pairing mode is triggered by pressing On and Off buttons simultaneously and holding until it starts to blink.
* When the battery is totally drained, it needs to be paired again.
* Device can act either like stereo headphones or a hands free headset.
An insert into the package lists many cell phones that are compatible. To keep this review succinct, I will try to post more "missing vox340 manual" details elsewhere so others can benefit.

Etycom Headset Pillow Pak Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Due to my line of work, I probably spend 25 hours a week with a headset strapped to my ear. I have tried Plantronics, Nokia, Ericsson, plus a few off-brand models over the years. Etymotic Research makes what are considered to be the Rolls Royce of ear-bud headsets; so when I saw the Ety-Com set on the AAUG review table, I had to give them a try.
As with the isolator line of ear-buds, the Ety-Com's single bud fits into the ear canal. From there, a bendable metal boom, capped with the mic, extends to about mid-cheek. A cord runs from the bud to a 2.5 'micro-mini' stereo plug. This plug is standard for many cell phones and some cordless phone handsets. There is also a built-in clip to secure the cord to your shirt.
When fitting the Ety-Com, I found the best sized ear tip, and followed the instructions for insertion (pre-moisten ear tip, and tug up and back on your ear while inserting - takes two hands).
I tested the Ety-Com with my Sony Ericsson cell phone in a variety of conditions and with a V-Tech cordless telephone at home. I found the sound quality to be clearer than any headset I have ever tried. The sound baffles in the ear tip do a wonderful job of blocking out unwanted outside noise. The end result is that a lower volume level can be used for the call. The clarity was so good, in fact, that I could detect audio artifacts in my cell phone that had gone unnoticed to date. I asked friends and family how I sounded with the Ety-Com, and got favorable responses in all but one instance. The mic did not do too well with the wind noise of an open car window. Although the microphone housing on the end of the boom has two offset sound holes, I'm not sure that this is a truly noise canceling mic. I found this headset to be extremely comfortable. Etymotic has really done their homework on the ear tip design! The only problem I found is that the boom sometimes wants to fall under it's own weight. With other over-the-ear headsets, there is more support to keep the boom from moving. With the Etymotic, the ear gel is the only point-of-contact with your head. When gravity tugs the boom down, the attached ear bud rotates. A work-around is to initially insert the ear tip with the boom higher than needed, then allow it to settle in place. The boom can be reshaped as needed. Use of the supplied shirt clip also helps to mitigate ear bud movement.
I did not try the Ety-Com at work due to an incompatibility with my telephone's Plantronics phone cord. I did find some online sources selling adaptors for $30-40 but have not yet ordered. Also, the Ety-Com is not compatible with my Powerbook for internet chat use. Although it may work by using a 2.5mm female to dual 3.5mm adaptor and a Griffin iMic. I have had some complaints about sound quality using a Bluetooth headset, so I might adapt the Ety-Com for use with iChat or Skype.
Included: Ety-Com headset with 4' cord, shirt clip, four different sized ear tips, one spare filter and filter changing tool, carry case with inside mesh pocket, and documentation.

BlueAnt X5 Bluetooth Stereo Headset (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bottom line: meet my expectations for a wireless set of headphones. I would buy again. I did several hours of research before purchasing these.
My applications: listening to mp3s while working out using my Palm Tx (direct connection, i.e. without streaming device) and watching TV on my computer using BeyondTV (using streaming device which plugs into the audio-out mini jack to mediate the Bluetooth connection)
Pros:
- compact, light, stylish/sleek
- impressive audio quality for wireless device; probably as good as iPod ear buds, but by no means competition for high fidelity headphones
- once audio begins streaming, no flashing lights (like Motorola bluetooth headphones)
- no noticable audio lag (due to on the fly compression) when watching video. Yes it does exist, but you have to be trying to detect it. Only purists would probably take issue.
Cons:
- more of the Bluetooth technology then this product, but headset seems susceptible to obstructions (walls, thick clothes even)
- easy to use, but again, more of the technology of Blutooth then product, depending on what you are connecting headset to (streamer vs phone or Palm) can be a bit of a pain pairing when first learning to use. However learning curve is extremely short

Motorcycle Bluetooth Multi Interphone headsets 3 riders Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Disclaimer: It is winter here so I have only installed these in the helmets and tried the functionality. All testing was carried out at the maximum speed of my recliner.
The headset and microphone easily installed into my HJC full face helmet. The microphone is connected to a wire mike so it would also work with an open face helmet. The transmitter was smaller than I had expected and easily clipped onto the side of the helmet.
To turn the Interphone on or off you have to press the intercom button for about 10 seconds. It doesn't sound like a long time till you are holding in on the button for what seems like forever. There are two large buttons on the front and back of the transmitter. Both appear to be far enough apart and tall enough to easily operate with riding gloves on. The front "phone" button answers/hangs up the phone and on my phone would pause/resume music playback. The rear button enables/disables the intercom mode. There are two smaller buttons in the middle for volume control.
It took a few times reading through the procedure, but it was reasonably easy to bluetooth pair the Interphone with my LG Optimus android phone. Once paired, music played on the phone either through Pandora or the music player streamed automatically to the stereo headset. Volume seems to be plenty loud and the sound was much better than I expected. The sound isn't as good as earbuds, but in my opinion it was very satisfactory. When the cell was called, the music stopped and ringing could be heard in the headset. Pressing the phone button immediately answers the call. If no button is pressed, the phone will eventually auto-answer. There does not appear to be any way to ignore an incoming call. Calls can be terminated by pressing the phone button. Once the phone call ends, the music began playing again.
The units came pre-paired to each other so I can't comment on how difficult this process is. Intercom mode is entered by pressing the rear intercom button. It takes about 5 seconds for the Interphone to connect to the second Interphone and start an intercom session. The intercom mode seems to be full duplex so both mics are open the entire time in the intercom mode. Pressing the intercom button on either Interphone ends the intercom mode and returns to the phone/music monitor. The 5 or so seconds it takes to establish connection to the other Interphone is going to prevent spontaneous quick chats between the riders, but it will be MUCH easier than trying to yell between bikes while going down the road or at a stop.
The unit is also supposed to be able to use a wired headphone jack input for a GPS or standard MP3 player. This function did not work at all for me. This input has the lowest priority and it is possible that my smart phone was locking up the headphone function even when music output was paused.
Battery life is supposed to be about 8 hours. I turned on both Interphones, set them to intercom mode and set one in front of the TV speaker so that it was constantly transmitting and the other Interphone was constantly driving the headset. I left them run for ~6 hours and both head sets were still working when I stopped the test.
I am sure that other products are more refined and offer VOX/PTT functionality and automatic switching to the intercom, but for only $80 for the pair this is a fantastic deal.
I will write an update once the weather lets me pull the bike back onto the road.

Altec Lansing US BackBeat Plus Earphones Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I initially bought these headphones for around $40 and was pleased. We did a lot of things and went a lot of places together. They helped me be more productive by blocking out the annoying banter of my co-workers, they allowed me to watch annoying YouTube videos on my iPhone without alerting to my roommates via noise bleed. When we weren't hanging out together, I knew that they were residing comfortable and tangle-free in my pocket; ready at a moment's notice.
Things were going great until one day I open the dryer door and see them dangling there, twisted and caught between the door and the Rotator Falange. Not only had I washed these loyal headphones, but I had thrown them in the merciless drier. I jimmied them out of the drier and couldn't bare to see them all tangled and knotted up. I didn't even attempt to check if they worked - it was obvious. I quickly moved on and bought a new pair of headphones, but I couldn't bare to throw my old friends away, so I put them in my desk drawer hoping that some day I will learn headphone CPR.
A few days into my new headphones and they just weren't the same. I heard my co-worker's voices for the first time in a while and I didn't like it. At the end of my rope, I decided to give my old friends a try - and they effing worked! All this time they were trying to tell me they wanted to be friends again, but I just ignored them.
Life was good for another 6 months until tonight I opened my drier door to a familiar, but no less horrible, site. This time they were twisted and knotted even worse. I quickly untangled them expecting the nothing good. These headphones were troopers through one load of laundry, but not two! No headphones could be that tough. Surely they had given up on me.
To my astonishment, they are still working. I am reunited again and it does certainly feel oh so good. If you buy these headphones, you're not only buying something to nestle your ears with hours of your favorite teen-pop playlist. You're investing in your own quality of life. These headphones might not be the flashiest thing out there, you might not look like one of the non-douchey blutooth guys when you wear them, or even feel like those cool kids with the white earbuds in. No, these headphones aren't in it for the flashy stuff, they're in it for YOU. They won't tattle to the nearest person of the Miley you're pumping through them, they will love you for you and not for the crappy music you listen to.
Which is great news for you Bowling for Soup fans!

GSI Standard Wired Over-The-Head Headphones with Microphone - 3.5 Stereo Pin, Connects to All PC, Laptop, Notebook, CD/DVD Players and Gaming Devices Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It works but it doesn't work with the iPod like they say it will. Yes, you can listen to your music, but you can't use the voice connection and the sound connection at the same time, so really it's not good advertising to say it works with iPods. Sound quality is fine. It does feel cheap, like it isn't going to last very long.

Jabra BT620s - Bluetooth® stereo headset for mobile phones, music players, PCs and other Bluetooth devices Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got these, at considerably greater expense than here I might add, from my cell phone vendor. Much has been said in other reviews so I will not repeat that here; instead I will focus on my experience with them using my Smartphone and Windows Vista to listen to music on them.
I patiently waited for them to charge (two hours) before trying them out. It was then a few minutes work to get it to talk to my Cingular 3125 Smartphone (press and hold the home button, Comm Manager, Settings, Bluetooth settings, Menu, Devices, Menu, New).
My phone will play music and uses the external screen to display the track etc. so that was the first thing I tried out - worked perfectly the first time I clicked play on a song on my phone: the sound just came out of the headphones, wirelessly! I was able to skip back and forwards, pause and play using the buttons on the right side of the headphones and adjust the volume using the left side.
The quality was not the best I've heard - not as good as my iPod for example, even though I had just ripped it from the CD at 256Kbit so I loaded the song onto my PC and tried listening to it there. I am running the final, released version of Windows Vista and was able to add the headphones as a Bluetooth device ok but then was unable to use them as Vista didn't have any drivers for them (even though it knew what it was). So I tried plugging them in via the USB cable that came with them and it found drivers for that ok and seemed prepared to work. However playing the file I had just played on my phone didn't result in sound coming out of the headphones...? A browse of the manual told me I needed to press and hold both the left and right side buttons after waiting 10 seconds after plugging them in. Once I did that, they changed colour from their red "charging and dead" colour to the "I'm doing something" blue. As soon as I did this all sound from my PC came through the headphones just fine!
They sounded much better when getting sound over the wire then they did wirelessly over Bluetooth so clearly the sound quality is degraded by the Bluetooth connection somehow. When listening wired, there is lots of bass and the treble was clear and overall I was surprised how good they sounded. Fairly loud but you won't go deaf with them.
To get a comparison, I plugged in my Sony MDR-V300 headphones, which are a very nice sounding pair of the regular wired kind that plug into the headphone socket, and listened to the same song again on my PC. The Jabra's are definitely not as good-sounding as the Sony's. I also noticed the song didn't sound as good as it does when I listen to it on my iPod using those headphones so the audio circuitry of my notebook is apparently not as good as the iPod which I don't think is very surprising.
They are light and comfortable and in summary, it is good being able to listen to music on your phone without the hassle of wires or of having to reach for a player to skip songs you don't like but the experience, in terms of music quality, is way short of that when using an iPod and high-end headphones.

White Handsfree Stereo Headset Headphone Earphone with Built-in Microphone Remote for Apple iPod iTouch iPhone 2G 3G Zune MP3 Player PDA Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The headset mostly works well. Person on other end of call can hear me fine, and I can hear them fine using iPhone 3G. However, sometimes when inserting the plug into the phone, I have to rotate it a little to get a full connection. It can also rotate a bit in use and drop the mic or earphone feed. Seems reasonable for the cost ($9+ including shipping) compared to Apple's high cost, but not ideal and probably should work better. For a backup headset to leave in my car, I'm basically satisfied but was hoping for more. I wouldn't want to use this one everyday. If it holds up well, I would consider buying another one to keep in my travel bag or briefcase.
