ARCTIC Cooling P311 Bluetooth Headset for Sports, White (HEASO-ERM42-GBA01)

Let my start by saying I have purchased multiple behind the ears bluetooth sets. I have brought the Motorola S305, rocketfish rfmab, jabra halo, lg hbs 200, philips shb 6100 and 2 pairs of the artic p311. I have to say the rocketfish rfmab which I also brought 2 pairs of was my favorite, but they both didn't lat past 18 months which is longer than any of the others.. The rocketfish was the beast out of all them but being disabled on fixed income I couldnt afford them anymore. The P3111 seemed liked the answer from heaven. They performed closest to the rocketfish at a fraction of the cost. The reason I brought a second pair was after trying so manyothers none could compare to its performance at the price. I decided to try a second pair hoping my first was defective. (I dont like returning products because it can be just as frustrating as buying them and realizing they dont work. Well I brought another pair in March 2013 and already they just stop working. I am so disappointed because they really perform well, but what good is it if they perform and dont last? Just brought a pair of Kinivo BTH240. Will let you know how these work. By the way I have to use a headset because of a neck injury that doesnt allow me to hold a phone to my hear , so im dependent on these . Since Im a a minister I get a lot of phone call and all the conversations are long! You know how it is when you start talking about God! The audio on these are great as well as the fit and the call quality is perfect , that why I gave them a 3 . Too bad they dont last! Update: went to Arctic website to see if they would back their product this is what i found: ARCTIC COOLING grants a limited warranty to its direct customers. The granted period of warranty ARCTIC COOLING offers to its direct customers exceeds mostly the local regulations. The warranty a dealer grants to its customer is not depending on ARCTIC COOLING. ARCTIC COOLING doesn't offer a manufacturer warranty.

They stay put on your head under almost all conditions. They sound decent--for the money--and for what they are. They easily pair with your device. They last a long time between charges. The controls are simple and intuitive. They use a simple USB A to USB Mini B cable for recharging. They cost $30!!! They cost $30!!!I wanted a set of earbuds or headphones that were wireless and that would stay on my head during my workouts. I have several sets of earbuds but they wouldn't stay in my ears when my ears got sweaty. I read the reviews for these headphone on Amazon and decided to give them a try. I use them with either an iPhone 5 or a 4th gen iPod Touch. Bluetooth streaming works fine with both.At first they feel a little funny but you get used to it really quickly and soon ignore the fact that you have really dorky looking headphones on your head and ears. But they are are really dorky looking. Nothing will change that. You look like a 1950's sci-fi alien.Some have complained about the sound quality. I am a snooty audiophile. At home, when I use headphones, I use high-end Grado phones with one of two really nice tube-based headphone amps. I know what sounds really good and what doesn't. These headphones are not audiophile quality and are not even close. But that isn't their market. They sound good enough for what you use them for. They also work very well for phone calls with your smartphone.So I'm really happy with this purchase. When you consider the purchase price, they are excellent. And they stay on my head no matter what. That's what I was looking for. I also like how long they hold a charge.P.S. I wouldn't use these in a quiet library. Too much sound escapes. Use earbuds for that. In a gym or outside running, they are great and safe because you can also hear sounds around you--like cars!P.P.S. One question I have involves how water resistant they are. I sweat a lot. Only time will tell. I'll add something to this review once I learn something about this.

Worked well until it didn't. Bought 2 back in November, 2014 (one for me + one for husband). Both died in July 2016. For the price perhaps this is a reasonable amount of use prior to failure.Background: I used them for watching tv while working out at home - treadmill and light lifting. Never abused and look just about new still. Husband used them at the gym.Performance - worked well for what I need. The treadmill can be loud in an bedroom sized room and the headphone style blocked out enough noise and was loud enough to let me listen to the tv without distraction.Found them comfortable and didn't really notice them once I had them on.Battery life is excellent which I loved. Seems like very few headphones are in the 20+ hour of charge.I am not extremely picky about the sound quality and it seemed fine to me. I did notice that there was some lag to the tv. I am using a 3rd party device to transmit the tv sound via bluetooth so who is to say which is at fault for the lag. Was not significant enough to be an issue.I would recommend them as long as you understand the limitations. Would like to see them last longer and I will probably try something else to see if I can find a product under $50 that will last 3 or 4 years. If I'm not successful I may very well just accept the limitations and buy again.

The box supplied was opened and resealed, so am unsure if I am getting a new or pre-used product - bizzarely, there was a micro usb cable included when the headphones require a mini usb jack. Completely disappointing, especially when buying direct from Amazon EU SARL, and the product was labeled new.Earphones are slightly cumbersome, but for the most part comfortable.

very nice stuff

Grandissime cuffie, rapporto qualità prezzo eccellente. Sicuramente non mi sarei mai aspettato una simile qualità per delle cuffie bluetooth!Io porto gli occhiali, ma le ho utilizzate anche per andare a correre. Fastidio minimo dell'archetto. Microfono perfetto, mentre correvo e sentivo la musica da cellulare, ricevevo una chiamata e con un semplice tasto switchavo da musica a chiamata.Veramente una figata, straconsigliate a tutti per chi cammina o corre e non vuole l'ingombro del filo!!!Inoltre le cuffie vengono vendute già con una custodia fighissima per trasportarle!Ah dimenticavo! Durata batteria eccezionale e carica veloce, padiglioni morbidissimi! Insomma che dirvi di più, se non compratele!

Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Cuffie comode, ergonomiche e, contrariamente a quanto hanno scritto altri, non pesanti né fastidiose dopo un lungo utilizzo. Qualità del suono, livello del volume e dei bassi davvero oltre ogni aspettativa. Il microfono è ultrasensibile e permette di telefonare come se si stesse usando il microfono del telefonino; ho fatto diverse prove di modulazione della voce e anche quando sussurro dall'altra parte mi sentono alla perfezione. Acquistatele senza indugi - e non dimenticatevi della comodissima custodia!

Acquistata leggendo le recensioni degli altri utenti e che dire...soddisfatto al 100%Paring con iphone 6 e mac rapidissimo, all'inizio vedevo solo led rosso lampeggiare e il parino che non avveniva, poi scaricando dal sito internet le istruzioni in italiano ho capito che bisognava premere il tasto centrale per 5-6 finché non lampeggia di rosso e blu.Indossate sono leggerissime, isolano bene dai rumori circostanti e la qualità audio sinceramente fossi così buona, bassi profondi e suoni ben definiti, funziona benissimo con iphone 6, anche le telefonate sono molto piacevoli, funziona con siri e la qualità del segnale è eccezionale, le ho provate lasciando il cellulare al piano di sopra e andando in mansarda ricevevo il segnale in modo eccezionale. con mac funziona con skype e facetime e anche la dettatura vocale fila liscia. le consiglio vivamente..poi considerando il prezzo che hanno sono molto soddisfatto e non potevo pretendere di meglio.. comodo l'astuccio per portarle con se in palestra senza lasciarle beanti nello zaino.. consegna rapidissima, un giorno lavorativo..complimenti ad amazon che come al solito non sbaglia un colpo
