Sony DRBT21GB On Ear Stereo Bluetooth Headphones - Black
Good - but uncomfortable - I ve had these headphones for a few weeks now, and use them to listen to my iPod in work, so they get used about six or seven hours a day. First off, getting started is a doddle as the dongle and headphones are paired already. Sound quality is good too. The controls on the right headphone are useful and intuitive. I have found the Bluetooth reception to be very good. With my iPod sitting on my desk, I have walked out of the office and got quite far down the hall before the signal starts to cut out. When in the same room, turning your head has no impact - perfect recption of signal.Now to the discomfort: Once I d had these headphones on for about ten minutes, the headphones started to feel like they were pinching me behind the ears. Also, there is a little pressure on the side of the head as well, like the headphones are gently squeezing me behind the ears, resulting in a dull pain. This wears you down over time, making it uncomfortable for longer periods of use.The battery life for the headphones is good. The Bluetooth dongle has a serious impact on the battery life of the iPod - but this is to be expected, and the battery life with the dongle still gives a working day s playback with some left over. All this means is that if you re using these headphones, you can t go for days between charges, as you would with standard wired headphones.The over ear design does mean that there is some significant sound leakage, but this is to be expected.Overall, I really wanted these headphones to be the one set to rule them all, but the discomfort has me looking again for a new pair of headphones. If they were comfortable to wear, I would recommend these to everyone. But since they re not, I would say stay clear until Sony redesign the headset ergonomics.
Best Thing ever!!!! - Honestly these are the best headphones money can buy, not only are these stylish and thin (courtesy of Sony) but the wireless headphones have battery life that doesn t seem to end. The beautifully design also holds practicality within it in the form of sleek hidden music control buttons allowing you to take full control of music being streamed live at super high quality from your phone (no loss of quality at all) without the need of taking it out of your pocket (keeping safetey in mind). One of the best features I personally found to be brilliant as the built in microphone which allows you to use this as a bluetooth headset/ handsfree, Amazing. My favorite use for this feature is hooking it up to my PS3, perfect for shouting taunts at your enemy as you blow them sky high. Finally the best feature, IT FOLDS!!!!!!!!!!! Yes believe it or not it can fold like a oragami swan, but no where near as complicated, into a compact ball, you can even turn it in to a stand for when it is not in use. All in all you would be mad not to get these headphones, ignore the bad reviews because they are all untrue, I have had them for over a week and they are still absolutly comfortable, they do not break-up as you move your head (i even managed to go to another room from my phones and still recieved perfect quality), i have stood in a loud crowd of people talking to someone and they didn t complain of any problem or hissing and as for the switch, I love that switch it is perfect i ve only missed it couple of times, but that was when i was running and i tried to pause the song and i couldn t keep my hand steady enough.These are so Cool.
Works like a charm :) - Wow, can t stop complimenting on how brilliant this product is!Although I may have had some trouble pairing, (usually takes a couple times of pressin n holding) - this pairs with my laptop and the quality is pretty good. Anyways, buy these (Argos having a deal with free ipod transmitter for £40) - which I thought was quite a bargain.
No more wires - I was fed up with taking my mp3 player out and my phone. So I got a 2gig sd card for my samsung steel phone waked loads of my music on it, linked the sony head phones up to the phone bobs your uncle, how easy could it be. No more cable to get tangled up in your pocket. They fold up very well so you can put them in your coat pocket. No body has rang me yet when I have been wearing them thank god think if anyone see you with these on having a phone conversation will think you are talking to your self. Only give them 4 stars because, sometimes when you are about to cross the road and you turn your head you lose conection with you phone, but I can live with that. Charge life is brilliant,if you want to find out how much battery is left you press the power button on the right side of the headphones, if it flashes three times fully charged, two times when half and once to tell you to charge them again. All in all very pleased with them. Oh if you want them for game play on the ps3 yes they do the job very well.
Sound Good,look great and work perfect everytime. - These headphones I found very good and especially for the price, you can hardly even buy wired ones for this money.I do agree you get a very small hissing noise if no music is playing but this will never be heard when you start listening to music.I use these with a Sony MP3 player and do admit they are not a patch on the wired headphones that came with my MP3 player but that s because they are £50 in ear headphones, for Bluetooth headphones the DRBT21 are definitely a good choice and sound is as good as you can get for the money and BLUETOOTH.
