After using these for a year, I was hoping for more. They do not work well with my at&t tilt, or HTC Kaiser. They will start voice command, but only one side of the headphones activate and my phone can't hear the commands. Oddly enough, random pushing of the buttons has gotten it to work a couple times (after connecting, reconnecting it somehow connects correctly). Uncomfortable to wear for long.
The main reason for the low score ***: They do not work well for a headset with a few phones I have tried. They seem to work ok some of the time, but many times I am told that I cannot be heard. I tried to find a good product that I could use with my computer and phone as my tilt can hold quite a bit of music, but overall these are not great headphones. They're not horrible, but being uncomfortable and not working well as a headset makes them a bust.

I received and have been using this about a month now and don't see any of the drawbacks that others are stating. Maybe it's because I have the unusual habit of reading the manual before trying to use something I just bought. I don't know. The construction is fine. It paired with my phone and my iPod with a Bluetooth transmitter quite easily. I saw how I could have paired it with the music player in my phone if I had wished to but chose not to so I could use it with the phone and iPod simultaneously. I love how it automatically pauses the iPod when call is coming in on my phone and starts again automatically after I hang up. The controls on the headset save a lot of trouble. I can put the iPod inside my backpack and control it from the headset and never worry about damaging the iPod(as I have to previous ones). The only thing I might change is the tension on the spring for the fast forward, rewind, previous song, next song control. It is a bit to high and could be easier to use. A+

The Headphones sound GREAT. but the earphone armes are very flimsy. They broke very easly. Im hoping that it is covered under the warrenty. It needs to be improved.... I am very disappointed in the construction quality. An action as simple as folding the headphones can break them. on the lable it should say ''Caution... Handle with extreme care.'' So be careful when handling.

This headset performs very well as wireless headphones from my PC. The sound quality is really quite good. As for the volume, it's plenty loud in an environment with a normal noise level. You won't hear much while mowing your lawn though. Also works very well with my Samsung phone, both for talking and listening to music with my phones built in mp3 player. After pairing with my phone, it will not connect with my PC anymore, unless I disconnect from the phone first. This is due to the fact that my phone has the mp3 player as well as just being a phone and the headset can only pair with one phone, and one music source at a time. The only problem I have is the voice commands for my phone do not work through the headset. The button on the headset invokes the voice menu on the phone, but for some reason the phone can't hear me speak through the headset microphone. I'm not sure, but I think this is just a compatibilty problem, so check with you phone manufacturer if this feature is important

I'm on headset number two and I've got to send it back in the morning because the left ear phone arm keeps braking at the seam were the wire comes through the arm. They sound good and they work great with my cell phone. BUT I SAY (DON'T BUY) until they fix the problem with the flimsy arms.
