Motorola S805 Bluetooth D.J. Style Stereo Headset Reviews

Customer Rating:
Summary: Surprisingly Good Sound
Comment: I'd held off on bluetooth headphones for a while, figuring the sound would be too disappointing. Well, with these the sound is excellent. The headphones are very comfortable and insulate against background noise nicely - they're ideal for working in a noisy environment or in the car/airplane. My only complain is it's a little confusing to get them turned on and verify they're actually working. You have to hold the "phone" button until it turns SOLID blue.

Summary: I like this product
Comment: I had a crappy pair of blue tooth headphones before so take my advice with a grain of salt. I LOVE the controls to change tracks and volume. You swivel the outer portion of the earphone to make these changes. Battery life is excellent (had these for about 3 months). Sound quality is excellent. I have a large cranium (XL motorcycle helmet) and they fit great. The pads are rubber which makes my ears sweat after a while. I wish they had some optional foam covers. I can only take wearing them for about an hour before it becomes bothersome. The case is super cool. Makes taking them on the road easy. I will not comment on bluetooth signal quality because my Tilt 8900 may be the cause.

Summary: Not recommended for real-time listening or movies
Comment: This is not a complaint on the vendor, but merchandise does not meet my expectations. Audio has around a 1/2 second delay, which makes this head phones useless when watching movies or other real-time events.
This is apparently a typical bluetooth technology problem as I have seen on different internet forums. However this problem is not noticeable when
listening to an audio CD or an MP3 player.

Summary: Best so far But....
Comment: I purchased these to use mainly for snowboarding. Earbuds don't work for this sport and I'm sick of having to take off my gloves to change tracks or adjust volume. I usually go through one pair of headphones a year and finally decided to go wireless. So far, not too bad. I have to agree with a previous post that parts of this headset could be a little more ballistic. I don't expect that little rubberized flap that covers the charge port to last too long. It's hard to even keep it closed. I do love the fact that you can switch tracks and adjust volume with your gloves on but sometimes it seems there is a delay when using these functions. Also, these controls are a bit clunky and there is quite a bit of play in them. I do like the fact that when you turn the headset off the ipod also turns off. The biggest downsides are sometimes the volume gets stuck and won't change unless you turn the headset off and back on again which also means that you have to turn your ipod back on. This has happened twice in the last two weeks. I don't know how most people wear their headsets with their goggles. I like to wear my goggles over the headset so I don't lose them if I bail. The strap on the goggles sometimes impedes the back and forth motion of the volume and track controls. This can be a hassle. I'd like to see a headset design with this in mind. Someone also mentioned in a previous post that the signal breaks up if you don't position your ipod or phone correctly. I've experienced this also but not while snowboarding. I haven't tried this headset with my phone because to be perfectly honest, I hate it when people use their cell phones while skiing or riding. I think this is one of the main reasons people like to tune out while riding. Who wants to listen to some barney yakking on endlessly about nothing when you can be tuned into a little monster magnet? Anyway, even if you count all the downsides to this headset, it's still far better than the earbuds or anything else that's wired. I think bluetooth is only getting better. I've seen improvements with this technology in just the last two years. I just hope they start designing headsets that are built a little tougher and water resistant/water proof for snow sports. Cut down on the bulk and design it for goggle use as well.
