The best bluetooth headphones so far!
The first thing that strikes you about these headphones is how strange they look. I always seem to have problems with noise isolation type earphones. In one ear the earphone is tight, the other loose. I can never get them to fit. Well, imagine my surprise when I tried these. I used the default flange type plug (seen above) and they fit perfect. In both ears. Well, thats a good start.
They are bluetooth, so how do they sound? Pretty good to be honest. They use Bluetooth 2.0 EDR (in other wards the best quality Bluetooth has to offer....yet!). I tried them with an iPhone (Firmware 2.0.1) an Apple Mac and Windows XP. They work flawlessly with all three. The sound is very detailed and the bass is extremely taut. I tried various music tracks and films and each one sounded superb (for Bluetooth).
Conclusion:
+ Fit my ears perfect
+ Very detailed sound
+ No hassle working with a variety of Bluetooth devices
+ The best sounding Bluetooth earphones to date
- The supplied iPod dongle didn't work with my iPhone (Firmware 2.0.1) I can skip tracks, increase volume, but I get no music. Could it be the dongle? Or the Firmware?
