Best bluetooth headphones I've purchased

I've had these for quite some time now and I honestly have to say these are some of the best bluetooth headphones I've purchased. I use them for running and at the gyn but where I enjoy them the most is mowing my lawn. Work great, and I hear the music well rather than my mower.
It also has 2 apps you can download, one for the user manual and the other one for the updates. You can even ping the headset which will produce a tone so you can find them. Brings the items in the 1st photo.
I haven't had any issues with these and the fact that the maker pushes out firmware updates says plenty about the product. Great job!

It work fine for almost 3 months, then the battery stop holding charge after 3 months of daily use by going to the gym 3 to 4 times a week. When it does hold charge for a few hours the command buttons are unresponsive.
So do yourself a favor, spend your hard earned cash on something else other than this very low quality cheap product and I was thinking of buying their BackBeat Pro 2 headphones for work. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!

These are great. I've owned several other hi end headphones ( lots of $$ wasted ) and these are the best so far . I do lots of different workouts and I sweat and train hard . These are the only wireless pair I have found that stay in when wet , And during intense excercises- they never move which is awesome . They are water / sweat resistant . They have great sound and The battery life is decent / the blue tooth is easy to set up . Linked to both my iPhone and my iPod. In under 10 minutes .

When I first bought them I had a bit of buyers remorse. There were a few reasons... One, they don't create a seal around the inner ear to block out the outside environment. For me, after a week or so, I felt that I actually prefer to hear the outside environment, mostly because I use it at work and I don't wanna pull them out of my ears every time someone comes over to talk to me, and I can leave them in and still hear my wife talk to me in the car. Second, it took a few weeks to adjust to them. I've always had trouble with earphones fitting my ears or staying in my ears. So every time I put them in, about 30-mins later, the opening of my ear canal would become irritated by the earphones. I figured this was due to the fact that my skin there was sensitive, but I would give it time and my skin would firm up. Much like the skin on your fingers would when you play guitar, when you bike ride, or your feet when you participate in sports. So after I gave it a few weeks, I was right, and now the earphones are much more comfortable and I have very little trouble with them. The battery lasts for several days before I have to recharge them and I used them at work all day, everyday. They are great for running as well, and other physical activity. The sound quality is excellent. The bass in some of the music I have sounds excellent, and I am very particular about how something sounds. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. But if you like noise canceling or a tight seal around the ears, you may wanna look elsewhere. Overall, this product was perfect for me.

I like these in-ear wireless headphones. They provide much better sound quality than a comparably priced on-ear set that I also have. Battery life is good and they are light, comfortable, and water/sweat-resistant. I would recommend them.

These are good (not great) wireless headphones. With the speaker covers provided the sound quality is very poor and they are not loud enough to workout in a busy gym and loose yourself. Battery life is great and comfort is awesome. Light weight and easy to use.

Water Resistant- My Bluetooth headsets all have a way of making it into the washing machine. Even if they are never put in a pocket. For this reason I wanted a waterproof set. I found that this set is at least water resistant enough to survive.
Good Sound- It is nice to have good stereo when listening to my favorite music. It is an added bonus that these also work extremely well as a headset for my phone.
Comfort- The earbuds are fairly comfortable. After hours of use however my ears tend to get sore where the buds contact my skin. I found that taking them out for a few minutes every now and then relieves the discomfort. I'm pretty happy with them.
Battery Life- Excellent!!! My set stays charged all day, even with constant use. Most times I will go 2-3 days between charges.

I have used a myriad of ear buds that require plug-in, and every set seemed to get pulled out of my ears while running. Sound quality is not too shabby. Fit is comfortable. Battery life has not been an issue, however, I have only used these for only a month and have logged approximately 100 miles running. Definitely would recommend these for runners.

I have had this for some now and it works great, I don't work out but I work outside alot, lifting and climbing up and down ladders frequently. That said no issues when I'm sweating like a beast. Calls sound nice and clear, and loud enough, I had to turn volume down. Sits comfortably over the ears and doesn't get in the way with my glasses or sunglasses. Music, we'll I can hear it just fine but these aren't the ones for music, they aren't loud enough and barely any bass. I got these prices matched from Amazon and was able to get the black ones only sold at Best Buy.

This is my second pair of the BackBeat FIT headphones, my first set "disappeared" at the gym. I didn't have any hesitation buying them a second time. They probably don't have the best sound in this price range, but they are perfect for training. They stay in my ears much better than just an ear bud, and with the water resistance of these headphones, you don't have to worry about sweating. They have excellent battery life, and pair via blue tooth easily. I guess buying them a second time is the best recommendation I can give!

I've done a lot of review, looking at the photos etc before I bought these. Previously I had owned Mpows which were decent headphones but very mediocre quality. Plantronics defineyely give you a lot better sound quality (I would compare to wired apple headphones that come with the phone). The only complains are the volume is not high enough at max, the announcements that tell on/off, battery life are very hard to hear. The fit is great, they are very light and are great for running and obviously any other activity if running is not your thing. Oh, one more thing, I did have a hard time getting them connected to my iPhone 6+. I was concerned that the headphones were not designed to work with my phone as the manual states that they are designed to work with iPhone 5 and below. But after turning on and off the blutooth the devices got connected and haven't had any issues ever since.

I went to Bestbuy intending to buy some Beats wireless headphones. But the salesperson said she enjoyed these, so I bought them on her recommendation. They are excellent. Charge lasts close to 10 hours, and they maintain good reception for 30 feet, even through walls. They are wonderful for exercise and yard work, and I use them weekly for both. They also work really well for making and receiving phone calls. I am incredibly happy with them, and I would definitely buy them again.

Had this product before and they are awesome for lifting weights. Squats crossfit or even Olympic lifts they sound great. However running they Stay in place but sweat gets in between ears and earphones. This causes the speakers to rust if you don't clean them properly ok a regular timeframe. Still great set of Bluetooth ear phones.

I have had these about 2 months now and I am extremely happy with them. They have everything I was looking for in a pair of headphones: clear sound, good lasting battery/charge, wireless, music controls on the left ear bud and I can answer my phone from the right earbud. When I run they do not fall out of my ears.
Definitely worth the price of $99.00, you will not regret buying them.

These headphones work great for sound quality, they stay in your ears and don't bounce around while you run, and sweat doesn't degrade them. They stay connected. Up to about 15 feet away without issues after 15 feet if you are moving the Singapore gets jumpy. It is really nice because if I am running with a jogging stiller the phone can stay in the stroller pouch so I don't have to have the phone on me. The sound quality is great also, it's not as good as a pair of studio headphones but for a pair of in ear phones they are superb. The only downside is they are difficult to connect to a second device , after you set them up on their initial device pressing the button in the right combination of power off time and button sequence to connect it to a new device is quite frustrating. After comparing all the options for sport wireless headphones , these are by far the best and I am not disappointed in my purchase at all.

I only use these at the gym. The sound is good but lets in some background so if your gym plays loud music you should look elsewhere. They are comfortable and don't get in the way even when laying back on a bench. They also don't fall off because of the design. Battery life is good I charge them probably once a week. They come with an arm strap for your iPod or phone, but I don't think it would fit a large phablet. Also, the strap is very tight on my bicep at the roomiest setting which are 16 in without a pump. But I won't take off marks for that because it's really just a bonus. I do think the charging port is flimsy and we will see how long it holds up. It's also difficult to plug in. For the flimsy charging port I take off 1 star.

great headphones, clear sound, speech can be difficult, if talking outdoors, comfortable fit, but headphones start giving up / losing BT connection to devices (phones, ipad, laptops, car hands-free) more and more frequently after 14 monts of use... life expectancy for reliable, acceptable functionality 18 months is a little short, unfortunately.

These headphones fit well and are light weight. The sound quality is great, even with loud background noise such as traffic. Sweat proof and water resistant, they make the perfect set of wireless headphones for running or working out.
