Consumer review by: casers1 (bestbuy.com)

they're worth less than my own opinion

I have an early 2011 MacPro, and I don't think it's my laptop's fault. They *might* work if you're using them sitting right in front of your computer and it's nice when they continue to work when I move about 10 - 15 feet away in my studio apartment in...

Now I know what the kids mean by "EPIC FAIL

They don't work as advertised

Good Device--need update for Motorola SD9 Headset

I was looking for an iPod bluetooth transmitter for my newly purchased iPod Nano 5G since the Motora D650 I had for 3G version wouldn't work with my Motorola SD9/SD9HD bluetooth stero headphones. The device that I received from Buy.Com didn't work. So...

Small form factor and updated version works well with Nano 5G

Earlier version doesn't work with Nano 5G

1 star - Breaks easily

If it was durable, it would be a good product but it's not built to last. As such it's way overpriced for a 'connector' only (it's not like it has any other uses but than to allow the older iphones to work with the bluetooth headsets. After 2 weeks,...

not much; only thing that worked ever is music (phone calls never worked, although it would ring thru the headphones)

there's not much too it, and the connector gets loose impacting the quality early on

SURPRISING LACK OF COMPATIBILITY

I guess proper stereo via bluetooth is not quite there yet. In fact I could not even get this unit to work at all with my Macbook Pro!! For an MP3 player maybe, but a 2k laptop....forget it. Called C/S and they were about as helpful as the part-timer...

LOVE these headphones!

I love these headphones. I was seeking a set of bluetooth headphones for use at the gym. I personally find the ones that insert into your ear and wrap around uncomfortable (my husband has a pair like that), so I was seeking something else. Came across...

Isaac

The HZ8 headset is as advertised, but severely limit your expectations. Do not expect to listen to music with anything resembling high or even medium fidelity. Music and spoken voice quality is --- without hyperbole or exaggeration --- similar to...

Scosche tuneSTREAM II HZ8 Headset

The HZ8 Bluetooth headset by Scosche is a start to a great product. The wireless technology is a nice feature, the light weight is great too, the sound is satisfactory; however, the fit is miserable...the sharp edge of the plastic earpieces and the too...
