Hello all.
I have just received these today and am wearing them as I speak.
It is the Sennheiser PX 210 BT.
First impressions are pretty good. You need to understand how to pair
bluetooth headphones. So does take some getting used to. It's like
pairing any other device though. If the device you're pairing with
asks for a code, enter 0000. The headphones will be paired from this
point on. Future connections will be automatic. The headphones can
store up to 8 "profiles", or connections.
There is some accessibility into the device. For example, you hear an
ascending tone if the headphones and/or bluetooth is switched on, and
a descending tone when the headphones and/or bluetooth is switched
off. Yes, you can turn bluetooth on or off, because it provides the
ability to be used as a normal, wired pair. For those with some
vision, there are LED lights on the device. It also flashes blue to
let you know it is working. As for the controls, they are quite easy
to feel and are spaced out. The controls are to switch the device on
or off, switch the bluetooth on or off, and controls to manage
playback of your music, such as previous and next track. There are
also volume controls too. All of which are easy to feel and therefore
accessible. No touch screens here on this thing.
As for sound quality, well it is pretty good, however it is on the
soft side. So might not be suitable for those who are severely hearing
impaired. Mind you, this can only be a good thing, as the last thing
you want is people listening to your music! So perhaps the softer
sound is a bonus. I can hear it just fine, which is the main thing.
As for the weight, they are pretty light.
How you wear it, well they go over the ears. The headband is also
adjustable. You can even fold them away too. They come in a nice carry
case.
As for charging the unit, you can charge it either via the supplied
USB cable which is connected to both headphones and PC, or you can use
the supplied charger and one of several plugs that it comes with.
These are to be used for specific countries where the plug design
matches that one found in the specific country. So, for the UK plug
there are three prongs, whereas the others there are only two. For USB
charging, this looks a bit tricky, but I admit this is a new concept
for me, so will need help for the first few times. It is recommended
the device is charged for at least three hours before using it for the
first time. Unfortunately there is no audible indication that it is
charging or charged, but if you say plugged it in at 6 PM. It should
be done by about 9 PM. Or perhaps give it another hour. Then try it
via bluetooth. There are, however tones to indicate the battery is
low, which is good.
Well I think that is it for now. If you have any comments or
questions, feel free to write me on or off list.
I personally feel headphones are part of our daily lives, so why not
bring this up for discussion.
Hope you like my review.
