3 out of 5 eggs

Pros: comfortable and ergonomic design
long lasting battery
decent sound

Cons: cannot use while charging
battery is not replaceable
Bluetooth

Other Thoughts: I bought these mostly for home use and voice chat on my computer. They are incredibly comfortable; I often leave them on without realizing it. Being unable to use them while they are charging is a bit frustrating as I typically use them all day. Otherwise, the battery life is good, range is good, sound quality is good.

Overall a well designed headset with a few minor flaws. If they fix these issues with a new design I would definitely recommend them.

5 out of 5 eggsNew 730 is out.

Pros: I have slept with them on with no damage. Second pair my wife has, has some damage to rubber cover that wires hook to. I use these everyday for music, calls and games. I walk out of range and back in and it connect automatically. Range is aprox 15'-30'

Cons: Not loud enough for music but that's probably saving my ears, lol. Still pretty loud. They suck for computers. Everybody I talked to complained. People rarely complain that they can't hear me, but it does happen usually when mic is hidden under collar though.

Other Thoughts: I came here thinking I better buy another pair before they are discontinued. Thankfully they have a new one out now. I have bought 3 pairs, the dog got the first pair. I am thinking about buying the new 730, but these still work! One more thing, I am a paint contractor and they have survived paint over spray sweat and being tossed around. The wires ar flimsy for comfort.

5 out of 5 eggsEarbuds + Wireless!

Pros: I love these things. I consider myself very nerdy so needless to say I am always close to my Android Smartphone which has all of my music and music services (Pandora, SoundCloud) on it. I also like to listen to music as I work in my cubicle. Also. since I am an IT Technician at a school..sometimes it is explicit or people don't like my music and that forces me to use a set of earbuds for my music listening.

Earbuds hooked to a smartphone in your pocket work well,, however you get tangled up, and other kinds of annoyances from the cord. This fixes that.

Battery life is really good, can pretty much keep them in and on the whole work day. Good range too, I can walk away from my phone and still hear my tunes 30-ish feet away (max bluetooth range anyway)

I also enjoy the magnetic retention system for the earbuds. This way they don't get all tangled up. Also when I work, sometimes I like to keep an ear open that way my boss can call for me without having to resort to throwing something at me to get my attention. In these cases I leave one earbud in the magnet retention spot and have the other in my ear. This works much better than with regular earbuds where you would just leave one hanging and dangling around, pulling down the one in your ear.

Cons: Call quality is BAD, you can hear the other person and hold a conversation but they will either think you are in a bad reception area or something.

Music quality is GREAT (not audiophile good though, but still I came from a set of Skullcandies before these and no regrets)

Bottomline: I never use the thing for calls, but for wireless music from your bluetooth enabled laptop, smartphone or whatever it works awesome.

Other Thoughts: I saw a college classmate of mine wearing a set of these and I thought they were really cool, and had nice audio quality for bluetooth earbuds so I picked myself up a set.

4 out of 5 eggscabling needs improvement

Pros: good sound quality, good battery life, easy operations.

Cons: cables are so not sturdy. so thin and gentle cables used. if they were hardcore metal web cables (like some of the highend, shure, bose or even skullcandy) this would be the best bluetooth stereo headset.

5 out of 5 eggsPerfect for the active user

Pros: Light weight
Easy to sync
Can be used for music or calls
Stylish
No heavy object hanging on ears

Cons: People always ask where they can get a pair.

Other Thoughts: I bought these for my wife over a year ago. They still work as well as the day she got them. She couldn't be happier with them. She uses them for aerobics and as a painter. Keeps cords out of the way and no bulky things hanging off her ears. The sound quality on them is excellent too.

4 out of 5 eggsWould buy again

Pros: Long battery life. Convenience. Decent sound quality. I wear them all day to work and back. Easy to move from phone to computer and back.

Cons: The design is around the neck, so obviously if you're lying down (like benching in the gym) they can fall off. Running with them isn't too bad. Wearing under tight clothing can push them against your collar bone.

Other Thoughts: There's about 5-6 of us in the office with the same headset.

5 out of 5 eggsLove it

Pros: Had it for about 6 months and I still love it. Easy to use and nice battery. I use it at work, workouts, and when cleaning around the house. Really nice range on it, Iv never lost connection so far, I can walk around the whole house with the phone in the front room and never have a problem cutting out, even when im in the backyard.

Cons: Haven't had any issues so far.

Other Thoughts: Would recommend to anyone looking for this type of thing.

5 out of 5 eggsBetter than expected

Pros: The sound is significantly above the quality any sort of headphones I have used before, especially with the bass boost activated (hold down both volume buttons). Of course, i only ever use cheap $20 headphones, but I was expecting most of the price to come from the bluetooth functionality.

The battery life is also really good, right at the 10 hours of use advertised.

Cons: The magnets holding the ear pieces in place when not in use are pretty weak. It is mildly annoying sometimes. It is a very nice feature, still, and weak magnets are better than none at all.
