Btw, wireless BT earphones = best thing since forever for portable music since the Sony DD Walkman. Indisputably true!
I use bluetooth a lot ~50 hours a week, so have got a lot to say (heres my blutooth headsets in last 3 years)
Just charging one of my BT earbuds ATM
meizu ep52, decent battery life 8hours, though connecting to my phone takes at least 5 minutes have to reconnect, turn off/on bluetooth on phone multiple times, bluetooth on headset multiple times before I can finally pair&connect, every single time
once thats finished I'll recharge another, cheap overear ones from k-mart
actually surprisingly good and they still work
Just consigned these to the waste since blue tooth fucked out about 2 months ago, brand = taktix. excellent battery life though.
had the earlier meizu ep51
charging connector socket fucked out after a while so had to chuck those as they could not be charged again
plantronics backbeat go, started off OK ~6hours battery though within 6 months down to 3.5 hours in a charge, goodbye
jabra halo fusion, decent pair (though I dont think it had track skip), battery also died on me
plus another one which I forget ATM.
Conclusion, blue tooth headsets suck, reasons
pros
* no wires
cons
* charging them,
* battery life aint good enuf, though meizu52 can do 8 hours on a charge
* connector can screw up
* blue tooth pairing issues >50% of headsets
* blue tooth connection issues
* worse sound quality
* drains phone battery quicker
why do I still use them? Im a gluten for punishment I suppose
