• I believe the "14.5 hours" comes in to play when you consider the charging ability of the carrying case. The headphones should last around 4.5 hours, plus you get 2 charges out of the carrying case.... so rounding up (a couple of numbers) gets you to that 14.5 overall.

• The BackBeat GO 2 should have about 4.5hrs of listening time on a fully charged battery. It can be a little less than that depending on the phone you are using, how loud the volume is, etc...The 14.5hrs is referring to the hours of use including the extra charges you'll get from the case. 2 1/5 hrs seems a little low so you may want to contact our technical support (http://www.plantronics.com/us/support) for a little more in depth troubleshooting.

• The charge on the earbuds only lasts 2-2.5 hours. The included case/charger has a separate battery that will charge the earbuds multiple times. This is how they calculate the increased run time.

• I have a pair, 2.5 to 3 hrs is what I get. For them to claim 14 is ridiculous.

• Well the 14.5 hours battery life includes the 3 full charges the case provides, with average use you shoud get rougly 4.5 hours with high use about 3 plus your 9 extra hours provided from the case

• Best Buy's site says 14.5, but Plantronics says 4.5 hours of listening time, but I get the low battery warning after about 2.5-3.0 hours.

• If you notice it said UP to 14 1/2 hrs. I don't think anyone gets that kind of time from them. I get the same as you 2 1/2 to 3 hrs

• I've also never gotten 14.5 hours of listening. I average 4.5-5 hours when I continuously use them after a full charge.
