    Pros: Decent sound quality, bluetooth fob for non bluetooth audio devices, dual charging head so you can charge headset and fob at the same time, decent battery life

    Cons: Terrible fit, sometimes tinny and static sound

    Summary: After reading several glowing reviews of these, I purchased them and I am quite disappointed. The worst part of these is the fit. It takes forever to get them on in a comfortable position and you constantly have to re-adjust them if you are moving at all, as they will slip and slide out of place. Once you do get them on, the sound quality is decent, but can be tinny with static every once in a while. The best part of them is the bluetooth fob for non bluetooth devices and the dual head charger so you can charge the fob and the headset at the same time. The fact that the charger is the best part of this package should tell you something. I would not buy these again.
