Motorola S9 Motorokr Stereo Bluetooth Headphone & Armband
Cons:uncomfortable after long periods of wear, microphone appears to be omnidirectional, difficult for other party to hear voice when in transit, short battery life
Pros:Clear stereo audio, easy to pair with devices, great clarity for speech when in a quiet place, switches quickly from stereo headphone mode to cell phone headset Comment:
I read a few reviews on engadget.com and had to buy them. At first I only wanted to listen to music on my new HTC TyTN II while at the gym. I still haven't made it to the gym yet. The headphones are crystal clear with minimal bluetooth hicuups. I've been able to set my headhpones to pair with both my laptop and my cell phone, depending on my needs. At work I listen to my laptop's stereo, on the road I listen to my cell phone's stereo. Regardless of what system I'm listening to, all incoming calls stop the media player and ring in my headset. I've had email contact with motorola support and they respond within a matter of days. I recently asked them how to change the media player application that responds to the AVRCP commands. On both computer and cell phone, only Media Player responds to the commands, so if I'm using a different media player the functionality isn't so hot. May be a limitation with bluetooth. |
Make no mistake I love these head phones. Once adjusted correctly they are very comfortable have good sound and work great. However they claim to be designed for gym use. I bought them with the two year ext.warranty because I read many reviews of people having problems. I was no different. I work out 3-4 times per week. The headphones typically last 2-4 weeks before crapping out. It is always one of the buttons on the side that freezes up (volume up/down; skip fwd/back). once this happens the headdset is toast. I have gone through 6 pairs in less than a year! Currently experimenting with wearing headbands and hats to prevent sweating on the headset. seems to be working but a bit of a hassle.
