Best stereo Bluetooth headphones

 

The LG HBS-700 stereo Bluetooth headphones earn a spot on many critics' lists for the best portable wireless headsets, though not because of their overwhelming music or call performance. However, while relatively minor complaints are leveled against...

Relatively inexpensive, good music and call quality, extremely comfortable, long battery life

Doesn't excel in any individual audio area, call voices sound a bit digitized, slightly weak bass, can't listen to music in multipoint mode

New 730 is out.

 

I came here thinking I better buy another pair before they are discontinued. Thankfully they have a new one out now. I have bought 3 pairs, the dog got the first pair. I am thinking about buying the new 730, but these still work! One more thing, I am a...

I have slept with them on with no damage. Second pair my wife has, has some damage to rubber cover that wires hook to. I use these everyday for music, calls and games. I walk out of range and back in and it connect automatically. Range is aprox 15'-30

Not loud enough for music but that's probably saving my ears, lol. Still pretty loud. They suck for computers. Everybody I talked to complained. People rarely complain that they can't hear me, but it does happen usually when mic is hidden under collar...

Earbuds + Wireless!

 

I saw a college classmate of mine wearing a set of these and I thought they were really cool, and had nice audio quality for bluetooth earbuds so I picked myself up a set.

I love these things. I consider myself very nerdy so needless to say I am always close to my Android Smartphone which has all of my music and music services (Pandora, SoundCloud) on it. I also like to listen to music as I work in my cubicle. Also....

Call quality is BAD, you can hear the other person and hold a conversation but they will either think you are in a bad reception area or something ; Music quality is GREAT (not audiophile good though, but still I came from a set of Skullcandies before...

Excellent

 

Outstanding all around ; Sound is great, buttons are convenient, and length from the neck to the ear is perfect. I use mine for almost everything, music, learning, working out, and obviously for talking

None

Better then Any I've Tried So Far

 

Anyone purchasing these should FIRST fully charge them before even connecting them to your phone or whatever you use them for. Charge them before first use. After which, let the battery fully die till they shut off then fully charge them again. Do this...

Stereo Bluetooth that matches my phones bluetooth version and works great with the phone. These things may not have extremely great sound to them but they do sound very good especially if your phone or phones music player has eq settings on it. They...

I don't like the little blue light that blinks every few seconds when they are on. Wish it only blinked a few times during any use then shuts off after about 30 seconds once the headset is active, that would be a nice feature and the batter would last...

Better than expected

 

The sound is significantly above the quality any sort of headphones I have used before, especially with the bass boost activated (hold down both volume buttons). Of course, i only ever use cheap $20 headphones, but I was expecting most of the price to...

The magnets holding the ear pieces in place when not in use are pretty weak. It is mildly annoying sometimes. It is a very nice feature, still, and weak magnets are better than none at all

Much Better than HBS-730

 

Buy this model over the 700 until the future models past 730 bluetooth is corrected. The range in the 730 and interference is awful because they lowered the strength to save battery life as you can see in the specs it has 5 more hours than this HBS-700...

Purchased both the HBS-700 (Quantity - 2) & HBS-730 (Quantity - 1) & best product out however the Bluetooth for the 700 model is clutch ; Beeps when battery is near death

HBS-730 (Quantity - 1) bluetooth technology distance & interference is awful. HBS-700 (Quantity - 2) is the better product however the voice notification features for the 730 model is better. No vocal notification of dying battery or current life like...

Rediscovering Music

 

This device is excellent. Picked it up after a co-worker got one. Range is excellent. Using this with a Sprint EVO 4G LTE and it sounds great

None so far

Good Purchase

 

It is simple and works perfectly

The ear buds are not the best, if your active expect the ear buds to fall out often
