I'm changing my review on this product as I found out the problem with no sound in the left year was because of how I had the Bluetooth adaptor connect. I originally used the RCA Audio Out cable. Once I changed to the digital out cable the headphones worked beautifully.

We bought these as a Christmas gift for our daughter and I don't believe that she has taken them off except to shower. Much better for her ears than the in-ear headphones.

Well packaged product! When I opened them up I was surprised, the ear pieces weren't as big as most OTE headphones. They look slim and sleek, not bulky. Quality seems to be excellent as well so far. Pairing was super easy and the controls were a no brainier also! I haven't used them in the gym yet but I've been wearing them around the house nonstop. They are very comfortable with the memory foam and the sound quality seems to be just as good if not better than higher priced options. Just for the price of this product and the sound quality I would buy again and again over other OTE choices! The only flaw I personally found.... They do not fold up so they might become a pain trying to lug around without breaking them.

This is a great headset for my workouts. Gives me good range at from my phone. Loud enough to block out gym music, yet I can still hear others as needed. Fit is perfect, either directly over ears or over my hoodie. Sound quality is good, although I have had better, but for the price, these check all the boxes I needed.

I was looking for an over the ear Bluetooth headset at a fair price. I’ve used Plantronics Bluetooth headphones before and they have never disappointed. I found these headphones to be uncomfortable for what they have been created for, working out. They are too loose, even with adjustments, and were constantly sliding off my head. The volume range was decent but the clarity at higher volumes was not great. I ended up returning them.

Upon trying on the 505s I immediately found them to be quite comfortable and well balanced. Memory foam cushion ear cups and headband are of nice quality and provide sweat and moisture protection but NOT FOR RAIN. On ear controls are intuitive and extremely easy to access. I love the 18 hour continual use on a single charge and this DeepSleep mode which preserves battery power when the headset is not used for an extended period of time. Mid range audio and bass are well above average and quite frankly pretty good for the price value here. I utilized the mic for phone calls and people reported that I sounded crystal clear! The 505 drowned out background noise pretty well too. The 505s feel, sound and look good and it is hard to argue against it for the great price point here. The only negative I can see here is that I wish they are foldable for better portability. Very happy to have tried the 505 and recommend them to everyone.

We got this headset for my wife to use while working out but I find I'm using them as much or more than she does. Setup was very easy. Headset easly recognizes our different phones on startup. Comfort level and battery life are great.

I’m always in search of good headphones: sweat or water resistant, blue tooth compatibility, a good battery life max. Fortunately for me, I’ve found just that in these headphones! And the little travel bag it comes with, is my personal little plus!

Gift for my nephew's graduation. I love that he loves it! The bluetooth and wireless features make it easier for this kid and his games. The mic allows him to communicate with his friends while playing. He also enjoys listening to music as well
