 ARE YOU KIDDING ME?Apr 30, 2012
By Marc L. Riley
This quality for this price? Unbeatable. I have used these for over a year with NO problems. They fit great, the sound quality is incredible and they stay put! I run 3-5 miles every other day and they served me well for an entire year (so far). I think I had to charge them about 4 times total. You absolutely cannot beat these bluetooth headphones...i'm telling you now. The only "bad" thing I can see is they make you look just a little silly. haha. But hey, if you're out there running or whatever, you're awesome anyways. Who cares right?
To summarize, these are the ones to get. Your search ends here.

Arctic P311Mar 02, 2012
By Lewis Edge
I wasn't sure about purchasing these. I read reviews on several bluetooth headsets and had all but decided on the LG. I saw these. I figured $27 if they are bad I will return. I have been pleasantly suprised. They are very comfortable to wear. I use them in the gym and in the office. I have Apple device and a PC. They pair with the Apple devices, MacBook Pro, iPod Touch, iPad without a problem. I have not tried the PC as of yet, but I am sure there will not be a problem there either.
They are light, have good quality sound (this can also be adjusted with the EQ on the Apple devices). They hold a charge well. I have used them 2 days straight and still going strong. The controls are easy to use and easily accessable. I wear glasses and have had issues with these type of headsets before but not these. The range is good. I went into the office next door which is about 30ft (10M) away and throught a concrete wall and no issues with sound break-up. Impressive
Bottom Line:
I would purchase these again and have recommeded to several friends. For a bluetooth headset this is definitely worth the money.
Pros
-Good Sound
-Light Weight
-Good Range
-Pair easily with Apple
Cons
None at this time.

Not perfect, but good enough for the priceApr 08, 2012
By Temia Eszteri
I have these headphones to thank for freeing me from getting tangled up in my earbud cords (especially when it leads to my phone getting yanked out of my bag or pocket - thank god for impact-cushioning phone cases), and the sound quality is quite appreciable for music. I can easily hear the full body of particular instruments in choice songs.
Unfortunately, I can't say the same for the microphone. It has no real protection from wind, so the only way you'll be able to make use of it for calls without being rendered indecipherable is to use it indoors while staying still. Probably.
My biggest warning however is that the form factor leaves a little to be desired - this shape will not fit all ear shapes or head sizes, and I seem to be on the edge of wearability because they get uncomfortable for me after a considerable length of time. I wish there was a way to extend or widen the band, because it does look rather small compared to other behind-the-head headsets I've seen and used in the past. They also don't cooperate very well with long or voluminous hair, so expect some fussing with a comfortable position.
There are other minor quirks that I don't feel are worth exploring in this review: use of a Mini-USB rather than micro-USB jack for charging, plus an as-of-yet unresolved issue with pairing these with my laptop (not worth exploring only because I haven't really looked into the issue, and I'm more likely to take fault with the laptop's Bluetooth drivers).
I believe I've covered everything I've liked and disliked about this headset. They're not quite for everyone, but with any luck, they'll work for you.

 Not the same as Kinivo (despite another reviewer's claim)...Jul 20, 2012
By Mitch H.
I bought this headset after first purchasing the Kinivo set (which looks very similar to this) for my gf, based on another reviewer's post claiming that the two are EXACTLY the same, other than the branding. Completely untrue. The fit is much more awkward and they feel heavier on the ears. Padding feels more compressed and sound isn't as clear or rich. They also would not pair with Windows 7 for some reason, which is why I bought them in the first place (paired fine with Android phone). Yes, they are a little cheaper than the Kinivo, but trust the reviews, the Kinivo is a better headset and worth the extra couple of bucks. Returned to Amazon.

Almost perfect...Mar 25, 2012
By Scott L. Williams
Was looking for a stereo bluetooth headset, both for communication while being active, and listening to music while installing swingsets ([...]). Had read a number of reviews on these, and pulled the trigger.
My thoughts: 1. Very easy to set-up with Blackberry phone, no issues whatsoever. 2. Sound quality for music is extremely good, very little outside noise. 3. The phone reception/clarity is great; have had no issues with anyone understanding my speech, and vice-versa. Really surprised, considering there is really no microphone near your mouth.
Only reason not 5 stars? They are not comfortable enough to wear more than about 6 hours straight; I know most people will not, but this was kind of important to me when purchasing. But- $28?? I would still recommend them, as compared to some of the $100+ sets out there.
