    "Wow! best bluetooth stereo headphones on the market by far!" on by cabel417

    Pros: looks great around your head, sound is excellent, very loud, comfort, easy to use buttons

    Cons: your voice is recognized through a small speakerphone, will pick up background noise.

    Summary: Let me start off by saying I have done a lot of research on these bluetooth stereo headphones. I have a LG chocolate and I have been looking for these to replace my mp3 player and to use something more convenient when working out.

    After doing a lot of research, I decided to buy these b/c i thought they looked the most subtle and seemed to look very cool when ur wearing them. Most of the other stereo bluetooth headphones are gigantic and make you look like a nerd. Research told me that most the of the stereo bluetooth headphones are still poor quality when listening to music but I wanted one anyway.

    I bought the s9 for $74.99. I wasnt expecting much, but I found out that this thing is great! Everytime I use it, I can't stop smiling b/c its so cool!

    Some people were complaining about the comfort. I have a normal size head and it fits perfectly! I can't feelany of the wraparound piece, it just feels like I'm wearing regular earbuds.

    The sound is fantastic! I can't hear any difference between these and my best pair of headphones...seriously! tremendous bass sound, everything is crystal clear.

    a problem with most bluetooth stereo headphones is the loudness factor, they don't get loud enough. You won't have a problem with that when using these. I have these set to volume 4/10 and its perfect loudness. When set to 10/10, you can listen to the song clearly w/out even having it in ur ears.

    The buttons are great. They are very easy to use. Don't listen to the other guy that said the volume control is screwed up. It does make a very subtle beep but the music doesnt pause. The beep is actually good b/c you know when u lowered or raised the volume.

    the only con I can come up with is when your talking to someone with these, you are talking through a small speakerphone b/c there aren't any pieces close to your mouth (if there was, it would look pretty lame). It will pick up background noise that the other person you are talking to can hear. I normally bought these for listening to music though, not calling people. Other than that I can't think of any other cons.

    I really don't know why this isn't scored higher. Maybe it just works well w/ the LG chocolate or something...it's great b/c the color matches perfectly with it too. This is one of the best decisions I've ever made in buying electronics. I'm so happy with it. Buy it! you won't regret it.

    I could be wrong (and I have been before today!) but you aren't supposed to wear these on your head. They sit behind your neck. Might explain your issue. (c:

    Sound on this headset was great, as was ear comfort. However, I spend a lot of time on airplanes and the rear band was extremely uncomfortable. Even after the earpieces popped forward of my ears when i rested my head against the seat, the rear band remained a major pain. You cannot rotate the band to the top of the head because of the earpiece design. I now use the Plantronics Voyager 855 buy the sound is not as good and the thin cord to the second earpiece picks up noise when you move your head. Now goinig to try the JABRA BT8010s.

    Hey just read your review and had a question for you. When going for a run how do they feel??? Do they sit on the head properly like move around or fall off?? Because i also wanted this headphone for the gym and alot of intense running.

    Cheers George
