RE: bluetooth headphones

2022-06-06 Thread CJ & AA MAY
Thanks Michael.

I have a few things now to try out and plan getting the little device which 
will let me use my traiditonal headphones, so I hopefully shouldn’t need to 
bother you. But thanks for the offer.

Hello Alison, you would want to make sure your Bluetooth headphones are 
charged. You would turn your Bluetooth headphones on go to settings and 
Bluetooth on your iPhone and see if your phone recognizes the Bluetooth 
headphones. If it does, you would want to go ahead and have your phone connect 
to your Bluetooth headphones.

If you have any further questions I would be willing to talk with you about 
this off list if needed.

I now have a new iPhone that does not have a headphone jack. I happen to have a 
couple of pair a Bluetooth headphones that I have paired up with yet.  By the 
way, you can get an adapter for these phones without headphone jack so that you 
can actually use regular headphones on your iPhone.

Take care,

Michael

RE: bluetooth headphones

2022-06-06 Thread CJ & AA MAY
Thanks for these tips. It was so easy pairing my Ipods with my iphone that I 
rather naively assumed the same would be the case with these Bluetooth 
headphones. 

However, when I ask my Google Home speaker to pair with my Iphone, it tells me 
to go to Settings and then Bluetooth and then look for Sittingroom Speaker and 
then pair – but my Iphone isn’t seeing the sittingroom speaker.

2022-06-06 Thread CJ & AA MAY
My standard headphones don’t seem to fit into the lightning port of my new SE 
Iphone so I can only use my Bluetooth devices but have recently seen a little 
dongle device which plugs into the charging lightning port and has an extension 
into which you can plug your standard headphones.

Your iPhone still has a headphone jack, it is the Lightning port where you also 
plug in the charging cable.

I don’t know which iPhone you have and maybe the iPhone 13 does no longer ship 
with the Apple Earpods with Lightning port, but you can get a set for I think 
$19 from Apple and I highly recommend it as a backup.

And of course all Bluetooth devices typically have to be put in pairing mode if 
you use them for the first time with your iPhone.

Some devices may have a dedicated button, others you have to push and hold the 
on/off button for 5 seconds after you turn them on and yet others may ask you 
to push something like volume up as you power them on.

The fact is you just don’t know what it is unless you know the exact make and 
model of your device and look it up.

2022-06-06 Thread CJ & AA MAY
When I got my new SE Iphone a couple of weeks ago, I didn’t receive a charger 
or Bluetooth headphones. The guy in the shop said there is a move for all 
mobile phones, whether they be android or Apple devices, to use the same power 
outlets so it will not matter which mobile phone you are charging as the new 
chargers will suit any and all phones.

My friend has purchased via Amazon a little dongle which plugs into the 
recharing outlet and into which you can fit your traditional headphones, which 
I think I will invest in.

RE: bluetooth headphones

2022-06-05 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
And of course all Bluetooth devices typically have to be put in pairing mode if 
you use them for the first time with your iPhone.
Some devices may have a dedicated button, others you have to push and hold the 
on/off button for 5 seconds after you turn them on and yet others may ask you 
to push something like volume up as you power them on.
The fact is you just don’t know what it is unless you know the exact make and 
model of your device and look it up.

Hello Alison, you would want to make sure your Bluetooth headphones are 
charged. You would turn your Bluetooth headphones on go to settings and 
Bluetooth on your iPhone and see if your phone recognizes the Bluetooth 
headphones. If it does, you would want to go ahead and have your phone connect 
to your Bluetooth headphones.
If you have any further questions I would be willing to talk with you about 
this off list if needed.
I now have a new iPhone that does not have a headphone jack. I happen to have a 
couple of pair a Bluetooth headphones that I have paired up with yet.  By the 
way, you can get an adapter for these phones without headphone jack so that you 
can actually use regular headphones on your iPhone.
Take care,
Michael

RE: bluetooth headphones

2022-06-05 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Your iPhone still has a headphone jack, it is the Lightning port where you also 
plug in the charging cable.
I don’t know which iPhone you have and maybe the iPhone 13 does no longer ship 
with the Apple Earpods with Lightning port, but you can get a set for I think 
$19 from Apple and I highly recommend it as a backup.

RE: bluetooth headphones

2022-06-05 Thread Richard Turner
The Bluetooth headphones have to be in pairing mode for the iPHone to see them.

You would have to check how to get it into pairing mode from the manufacturer, 
or give us the brand and model and maybe someone here already knows how to do 
that.

You also cannot be actively using them with the computer when you are pairing 
with another device unless they have the ability to pair with more than one 
device and then switch devices as needed.

 

And, your iPhone does have an earphone port, just not the 3.5 jack.  It uses 
the same port as the power cable, so you need an approximately $8 adapter from 
Apple to connect older style headphones with the 3.5 MM plug to the iPhone.

 

You just cannot use headphones while charging unless you buy a much more 
expensive adapter that allows charging and wired headphones to be plugged in.

Tribit XFree Tune Headphones, was Re: Bluetooth headphones

2019-12-24 Thread Arnold Schmidt
I would like to second the recommendation of these headphones. They normally 
sell for $39 on Amazon, but one day,  they were the deal of the day for $27. I 
decided to take a chance on them, being that I could return them if I didn't 
like them, I did not return them. I prefer what use to be called the classical 
sound, being that a lot of the music I listen to is classical, or acoustic 
jazz. This so-called classical sound emphacizes the midrange and treble, but 
without pumping up the bass. Ocasionally, I wish these headphones had slightly 
less bass, or slightly more treble, but by no means are they that   modern, or 
JBL sound, with that booming bass and not much treble. They are advertised to 
run for 40 hours on a charge, and although I have never tested this, I believe 
it, being that I have run them for hours and have never seen the icon drop 
below 70 percent. If something were to happen to them, yes, I  would buy them 
again, even for $39.This company also makes a pair of bluetooth earbuds, 
and several bluetooth speakers, but I know nothing about these products.

The H600 also has no Bluetooth, it has the USB Nano receiver to be plugged in 
to a computer and that’s it.

2019-11-15 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi,

I found that when you want to go to blutooth on the H800 it is a lot easier to 
push the switch to the top then slide it back to the middle position. It seems 
that if you try and go from the off position and try and push it to the 
Bluetooth position you often go to far. Just my two cents worth.

Bluetooth set; a little cable came with it to use on the computer, but my cable 
works fine, is easier too.

Viola, 
charging off the PC is fine. It may take longer.
I used my iPhone charger and just plugged the provided cable into it.


For the person wanting to know the size, they cover your entire ear, and a bit 
more.
They are not as bulky as some I have owned, but bulky is in the fingers of the 
beholder.
If you do not like them, you can return them
It is hard to answer such questions.
You are better off trying them for yourself.

If you are on the computer and your phone rings, you just slide 
the switch from USB to BT. 
A little heads up, the dongle can be stored  inside the cover 
on the left earpiece.
Here are some really good instruction I got from Mike B:
 
Device selection switch, located at the rear of the right ear 
piece.
When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on 
the right ear can be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for 
Bluetooth, and the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into 
the computer.
 
Volume up, located at 12:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
 
Volume down, located at 6:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
 
Microphone mute, located at 9:00 on the face of the right ear 
piece.
The mute button mutes all sound input to the headset when 
playing music.
The mute button mutes the boom microphone when on the phone.
 
Play/pause or Answer call/end call, located at 3:00 on the face 
of the right ear piece.
 
Next track/Fast Forward, located at the bottom of the right ear 
piece between the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button down towards the charging port for, Next Track 
/ Fast Forward.
 
Previous track/Rewind, located at the bottom of the right ear 
piece between the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button up towards the device selection switch for, 
Previous Track / Rewind.
 
The left ear piece has two small tactile dots on it.  If you 
turn the cover until the two dots are lined up, the cover will come off and 
inside there is the battery, which can be replaced by someone with jeweler 
tools; and a spot to store the RF dongle when not in use with the computer.

Having just received them, I don’t think they are and I can hear things around

your ears all around. these are on the ear. I love them. thanks all for this

I will keep these. 

With my little sports one, I was on a call, got one, but I don't know if I 
didn't hold the button long enough or not for long enough, but I couldn't get 
the other call like the directions said I could by pushing the call/call-end 
button. 

That is one reason it is worth more money to go to Wal-Mart, to get a little 
help and make sure the thing will work for me and that I use it right.

I am sure they are quite nice, but the discussion about the 
Logitech H800 focused more on it's ability to connect to a PC via a USB dongle 
as well as to an iPhone via Bluetooth and the fact that they only cost $60.


I doubt you find a Bose Quiet Comfort 35 II for that price, 
here in Canada they cost $449 at Best Buy. The ability to use Google Assistant 
and Amazon Alexa natively on the headset is interesting and a great feature, 
but if I think about what else I can buy for this amount many other things come

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-14 Thread Carolyn
The thing is, that if we see the guy we've seen before at Wal-Mart electronics, 
he'd let me try a Logitech. If I could be sure it works better than the 
seven-dollar one, I'd get it. I rather think that it will work better than the 
little sports one, which is probably a good make do for someone with no hearing 
loss. 

Bluetooth is so dependable with my hearing aids, that I know with a good set, 
I'd be pleased with it.

Hi Sieghard and all,
You can connect the Logitech H800 to Echo or the Echo Dot. I have one of my 
H800 so when I want to listen to something on the Echo Dot I just start the dot 
playing and push theswitch to the middle position and it connect to the Echo. 
Just to let you all know you can connect the H800 to computer by a dongle, or 
Bluetooth, or Bluetooth to the iPhone or echo or any other Bluetooth device.

  If you are on the computer and your phone rings, you just slide the switch

  Here are some really good instruction I got from Mike B:

  Device selection switch, located at the rear of the right ear piece.
  When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear 
can be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for Bluetooth, 
and the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into the computer.

  Volume up, located at 12:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

  Volume down, located at 6:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

  Microphone mute, located at 9:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
  The mute button mutes all sound input to the headset when playing music.
  The mute button mutes the boom microphone when on the phone.

  Play/pause or Answer call/end call, located at 3:00 on the face of the right 
ear piece.

  Next track/Fast Forward, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between 
the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
  Press the button down towards the charging port for, Next Track / Fast 
Forward.

  Previous track/Rewind, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between 
the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
  Press the button up towards the device selection switch for, Previous Track / 
Rewind.

  The left ear piece has two small tactile dots on it.  If you turn the cover 
until the two dots are lined up, the cover will come off and inside there is 
the battery, which can be replaced by someone with jeweler tools; and a spot to 
store the RF dongle when not in use with the computer.

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-14 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi Sieghard and all,
You can connect the Logitech H800 to Echo or the Echo Dot. I have one of my 
H800 so when I want to listen to something on the Echo Dot I just start the dot 
playing and push theswitch to the middle position and it connect to the Echo. 
Just to let you all know you can connect the H800 to computer by a dongle, or 
Bluetooth, or Bluetooth to the iPhone or echo or any other Bluetooth device.
Mr. Ed

I am sure they are quite nice, but the discussion about the Logitech H800

an iPhone via Bluetooth and the fact that they only cost $60.
I doubt you find a Bose Quiet Comfort 35 II for that price, here in Canada they 
cost $449 at Best Buy. The ability to use Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa 
natively on the headset is interesting and a great feature, but if I think 
about what else I can buy for this amount many other things come to mind first.

You can have two things to switch between.

A bluetooth paired item, like a cell phone.

Then something with a usb port that can route the audio through the
USB dongle, normally a computer.

I've not heard of TV'S with a USB audio out port, or bluetooth for
that matter.

There is a three position switch on the back of the right ear.

Off, Bluetooth, and RF usb which communicates through the little dongle.

Well, they are only $349.00 US at Walmart. 
You could buy almost 6 of the H800 for the same price.
20 hours of battery life is quite impressive, but not worth that much to me.
Yes, they probably sound amazing too,.

Carolyn,
They come with a very small USB dongle that transmit the audio to the 
headphones over a specific Radio Frequency; at least I believe that is what RF 
stands for.
So, you could pair them via Bluetooth with the computer instead of the 
phone, but they are designed to pair with the phone via Bluetooth and the 
computer via the USB dongle.
In the box, the little USB dongle was tightly in the middle of the 
plastic that the headphones sit in, inside the box.
But, there is a cover on the left earpiece that you can turn about an 
eighth of a turn and remove, and there is a spot in there to store the USB 
dongle when not in use.
The cover has a dot on it that is tactile, and one on the rim of the 
opening that is also tactile.  If you line them up, the cover can come off, or 
you line them up when putting it back on and then turn it clockwise about an 
eighth of a turn or less and it locks into place.
I like them very much and seem to be getting at least 5 or 6 hours out 
of a charge in the first couple of days.

Walmart does carry them, but they charge $72, while Amazon and Best Buy 
are 60.99 and 61.99 respectively.

2019-11-13 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Don’t forget that they are still Bluetooth and while Bluetooth has certainly 
improved with respect to sound quality it’s still not the same as a high-end 
set of wired headphones or a Sennheiser wireless in that price class which 
works with a digital transmitter. I am still waiting for Sonos to release a 
headset and I would have no problem paying $400 or $500 for that, but also only 
if it had replaceable batteries because there is simply no point in paying that 
much for a device which has a 4 or 5 year life span because after that the 
built-in lithium battery doesn’t hold much of a charge any more.

Then something with a usb port that can route the audio through the

There is a three position switch on the back of the right ear.

Well, they are only $349.00 US at Walmart.
You could buy almost 6 of the H800 for the same price.
20 hours of battery life is quite impressive, but not worth that much to me.
Yes, they probably sound amazing too,.

You can have two things to switch between.

A bluetooth paired item, like a cell phone.

Then something with a usb port that can route the audio through the
USB dongle, normally a computer.

I've not heard of TV'S with a USB audio out port, or bluetooth for
that matter.

There is a three position switch on the back of the right ear.

Off, Bluetooth, and RF usb which communicates through the little dongle.

Subject: RE: Bluetooth headphones

Carolyn,
They come with a very small USB dongle that transmit the audio to the 
headphones over a specific Radio Frequency; at least I believe that is what RF 
stands for.
So, you could pair them via Bluetooth with the computer instead of the phone, 
but they are designed to pair with the phone via Bluetooth and the computer via 
the USB dongle.
In the box, the little USB dongle was tightly in the middle of the plastic that 
the headphones sit in, inside the box.
But, there is a cover on the left earpiece that you can turn about an eighth of 
a turn and remove, and there is a spot in there to store the USB dongle when 
not in use.
The cover has a dot on it that is tactile, and one on the rim of the opening 
that is also tactile.  If you line them up, the cover can come off, or you line 
them up when putting it back on and then turn it clockwise about an eighth of a 
turn or less and it locks into place.
I like them very much and seem to be getting at least 5 or 6 hours out of a 
charge in the first couple of days.

Walmart does carry them, but they charge $72, while Amazon and Best Buy are 
60.99 and 61.99 respectively.
Here is the Walmart link:
https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FLogitech-H800-Wireless-Headset%2F17803212data=02%7C01%7C%7C91ee39788b8f4708f71908d767a9e419%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435%7C1%7C0%7C637091851676210160sdata=k%2F%2Bcae4mxyor24R%2BZhMGPQQFD3YDvgMMgDxg79Tx4oM%3Dreserved=0

I think Mr. Ed said Ebay was even less.
I bought mine at Best buy because there is a store close by.

You don't have to be a member to order from Amazon. A Amazon Prime membership 
simply gives you a bit faster shipping and sometimes a lower minimum to get 
free shipping, but you wouldn't pay shipping if you ordered this $60.99 headset 
from them and you would most likely have it 2 days later or 3 at the most.

Walmart is expensive at $72.06

Ed also mentioned you can get them on eBay for $49.99, but I didn’t check and 
whenever I tried to look them up on Target it redirected me to some 
international site which told me that I can now order from Target in Canada via 
some other company, I think it was called “Borderfree”, but it seems they might

Hi Richard,

Question 1:You can take the side cover off and replace the battery. The 
batteries that come with them last a long time. I have had some last three or 
four years and I use my headsets every day.

Question 2:they have sound coming out both left and right I believe in 
Stereo.

Question 3:the band goes on top of the head. They are nice and light as 
I have worn them for eight to ten hours a day.

 

Also I wear hearing aids and they sit on top of my hearing aids just fine. Nice 
soft pads. They sit on the ear. They are not the cup kind wear your ear goes 
inside.

If you have any other questions please feel free to asked.

Mr. Ed

 

Hi Mr. Ed,

These logictech sound interesting.

I did not find anything about replacing the battery?

Also, are these stereo or single ear?

Lastly, do they wrap around the back of the head or over the top if stereo?

 

Thanks,

Richard

I have many sets of the Logitech H800 they are very good sounding  They have no

You can have two things to switch between.
A bluetooth paired item, like a cell phone.
Then something with a usb port that can route the audio through the USB dongle, 
normally a computer.
I've not heard of TV'S with a USB audio out port, or bluetooth for that matter.
There is a three position switch on the back of the right ear.
Off, Bluetooth, and RF usb which communicates through the little dongle.

Carolyn,
They come with a very small USB dongle that transmit the audio to the 
headphones over a specific Radio Frequency; at least I believe that is what RF 
stands for.
So, you could pair them via Bluetooth with the computer instead of the phone, 
but they are designed to pair with the phone via Bluetooth and the computer via 
the USB dongle.
In the box, the little USB dongle was tightly in the middle of the plastic that 
the headphones sit in, inside the box.
But, there is a cover on the left earpiece that you can turn about an eighth of 
a turn and remove, and there is a spot in there to store the USB dongle when 
not in use.
The cover has a dot on it that is tactile, and one on the rim of the opening 
that is also tactile.  If you line them up, the cover can come off, or you line 
them up when putting it back on and then turn it clockwise about an eighth of a 
turn or less and it locks into place.
I like them very much and seem to be getting at least 5 or 6 hours out of a

Hi Carolyn,
I don't know if they have the Logitech H800 at Walmart. I have never seen them 
in the store. They have them on Amazon for $60 and on ebay for $49. They are 
worth every penny as far as I am concerned. I have three pair and I have 
friends that have them and they all love them. I was thinking about buying 
another pair for a backup. I hate to be without these headsets as they work so 
well with VO and also sit on my hearing aids and are very comfortable. They 
have great sound and work on the computer, iPhone and any other Bluetooth 
device. If anyone gets a pair of them and have questions I would provide my 
email address and phone number to assist with any questions or setup questions.

Hi Richard,
I have many sets of the Logitech H800 they are very good sounding  They have no 
Bluetooth lagging with VO as far as I can tell. I have used them for many 
years. They are very light and comfortable. You can use them on the computer 
with the mini dongle or you can Bluetooth them to a computer or iPhone. I do 
both. I also use them for Facetime and talking on my IPhone. The battery I 
think last about five or six hours. I have put a bigger battery 320 amp and it 
last for eight to nine hours I think as I have never timed it.
You can get them on ebay or Amazon. They also fold up for easy traveling.

She just wants some cheap ones, but with reasonable sound. We bought some off

Thanks for the instructions.
That will save me some time with trying to scan or find the manual online.
 They claim a frequency range of 31 to 15,000 hertz  .
That should be fine for most music unless it has orchestra then you will likely 
miss out on the high frequencies.

Personally, I'm mostly interested in them for books, Email, etc.

These do go over the head and are quite comfortable. The sound is decent but in 
my opinion, not the best for music. But you can use the USB dongle for use with 
the computer and have it paired via

blue tooth to your iPhone. If you are on the computer and your phone rings, you 
just slide the switch from USB to BT. A little heads up, the dongle is inside 
the cover on the left earpiece.
Here are some really good instruction I got from Mike B:

Device selection switch, located at the rear of the right ear piece.
When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear can 
be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for Bluetooth, and 
the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into the computer.

Volume up, located at 12:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Volume down, located at 6:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Microphone mute, located at 9:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
The mute button mutes all sound input to the headset when playing music.
The mute button mutes the boom microphone when on the phone.

Play/pause or Answer call/end call, located at 3:00 on the face of the right 
ear piece.

Next track/Fast Forward, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between 
the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button down towards the charging port for, Next Track / Fast Forward.

Previous track/Rewind, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between the 
USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button up towards the device selection switch for, Previous Track / 
Rewind.

To put into pairing mode:
press the next toggle button on the bottom and the volume up button at the same 
time for around 7 seconds. On an I device be in BT setting and you will see the 
headset so double tap on it and it should pair easily.
HTH, Marie

Question 1:You can take the side cover off and replace the battery. The 
batteries that come with them last a long time. I have had some last three or 
four years and I use my headsets every day.

Question 2:they have sound coming out both left and right I believe in 
Stereo.

Question 3:the band goes on top of the head. They are nice and light as 
I have worn them for eight to ten hours a day.

 

Also I wear hearing aids and they sit on top of my hearing aids just fine. Nice 
soft pads. They sit on the ear. They are not the cup kind wear your ear goes 
inside.

If you have any other questions please feel free to asked.

Hi Mr. Ed,

I did not find anything about replacing the battery?

Also, are these stereo or single ear?

Lastly, do they wrap around the back of the head or over the top if stereo?

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-11 Thread Richard Turner
Carolyn,
They come with a very small USB dongle that transmit the audio to the 
headphones over a specific Radio Frequency; at least I believe that is what RF 
stands for.
So, you could pair them via Bluetooth with the computer instead of the phone, 
but they are designed to pair with the phone via Bluetooth and the computer via 
the USB dongle.
In the box, the little USB dongle was tightly in the middle of the plastic that 
the headphones sit in, inside the box.
But, there is a cover on the left earpiece that you can turn about an eighth of 
a turn and remove, and there is a spot in there to store the USB dongle when 
not in use.
The cover has a dot on it that is tactile, and one on the rim of the opening 
that is also tactile.  If you line them up, the cover can come off, or you line 
them up when putting it back on and then turn it clockwise about an eighth of a 
turn or less and it locks into place.
I like them very much and seem to be getting at least 5 or 6 hours out of a 
charge in the first couple of days.

Walmart does carry them, but they charge $72, while Amazon and Best Buy are 
60.99 and 61.99 respectively.
Here is the Walmart link:
https://www.walmart.com/ip/Logitech-H800-Wireless-Headset/17803212

When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear can 
be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for Bluetooth, and 
the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into the computer.

Volume up, located at 12:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Volume down, located at 6:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Microphone mute, located at 9:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
The mute button mutes all sound input to the headset when playing music.
The mute button mutes the boom microphone when on the phone.

Play/pause or Answer call/end call, located at 3:00 on the face of the right 
ear piece.

Next track/Fast Forward, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between 
the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button down towards the charging port for, Next Track / Fast Forward.

Previous track/Rewind, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between the 
USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button up towards the device selection switch for, Previous Track / 
Rewind.

To put into pairing mode:
press the next toggle button on the bottom and the volume up button at the same 
time for around 7 seconds. On an I device be in BT setting and you will see the 
headset so double tap on it and it should pair easily.
HTH, Marie

My wife did a search and Wal-Mart showed up as carrying them.
I've ordered them from Best buy and will be picking them up later today, 
hopefully.

They sound like they are over the head, not around the back of the neck, but 
I'll know more when I have them in my hands to try out.

OK, forgot I asked you, so forget a second email with that question. The price 
sounds right. Eventually, I'll check at Wal-Mart. I might even wait until I 
replace this phone, which probably will be within the next six months to a 
year.

Hi Carolyn,
I don't know if they have the Logitech H800 at Walmart. I have never seen them 
in the store. They have them on Amazon for $60 and on ebay for $49. They are 
worth every penny as far as I am concerned. I have three pair and I have 
friends that have them and they all love them. I was thinking about buying 
another pair for a backup. I hate to be without these headsets as they work so 
well with VO and also sit on my hearing aids and are very comfortable. They 
have great sound and work on the computer, iPhone and any other Bluetooth 
device. If anyone gets a pair of them and have questions I would provide my 
email address and phone number to assist with any questions or setup questions.

with the mini dongle or you can Bluetooth them to a computer or iPhone. I do

Question 1: You can take the side cover off and replace the battery. The

Question 2: they have sound coming out both left and right I believe in 
Stereo.
Question 3: the band goes on top of the head. They are nice and light as I 
have worn them for eight to ten hours a day.

Also I wear hearing aids and they sit on top of my hearing aids just fine. Nice 
soft pads. They sit on the ear. They are not the cup kind wear your ear goes 
inside.
If you have any other questions please feel free to asked.

Hi Mr. Ed,
These logictech sound interesting.
I did not find anything about replacing the battery?
Also, are these stereo or single ear?
Lastly, do they wrap around the back of the head or over the top if stereo?

Marie,
Thanks for the instructions.
That will save me some time with trying to scan or find the manual online.
 They claim a frequency range of 31 to 15,000 hertz  .
That should be fine for most music unless it has orchestra then you will likely 
miss out on the high frequencies.

Personally, I'm mostly interested in them for books, Email, etc.
I have really good wired headphones for music listening, so I'm hoping these 
will do the trick for me.

These do go over the head and are quite comfortable. The sound is decent but in 
my opinion, not the best for music. But you can use the USB dongle for use with 
the computer and have it paired via

blue tooth to your iPhone. If you are on the computer and your phone rings, you 
just slide the switch from USB to BT. A little heads up, the dongle is inside 
the cover on the left earpiece.
Here are some really good instruction I got from Mike B:

Device selection switch, located at the rear of the right ear piece.
When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear can 
be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for Bluetooth, and 
the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into the computer.

Volume up, located at 12:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Volume down, located at 6:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Microphone mute, located at 9:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
The mute button mutes all sound input to the headset when playing music.
The mute button mutes the boom microphone when on the phone.

Play/pause or Answer call/end call, located at 3:00 on the face of the right 
ear piece.

Next track/Fast Forward, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between 
the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button down towards the charging port for, Next Track / Fast Forward.

Previous track/Rewind, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between the 
USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button up towards the device selection switch for, Previous Track /

press the next toggle button on the bottom and the volume up button at the same

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-11 Thread Mr. Ed
Hi Richard,

The easiest way I have found to do this is to move the switch all the way up 
and then I move it down to the middle. When I try and move it from the off 
position to the middle position it is hard to stop right on the middle 
position. So again I move the switch to the top then use my finger nail to move 
it down to the middle position as tis usually works every time for me.

Let me know if this worked better for you.

Mr. Ed,

Do you ever find that when you slide the switch to Bluetooth, nothing happens?

 

A couple of times in the two days I’ve had them, I have had to turn them off 
and on a couple times before the Bluetooth beep would sound and they would 
connect.

I sat there for 30 to 40 seconds with nothing happening.

Well I don’t know how Sieghard gets these H800 headset on that big fat square 
head of his. I will have to agree with Sieghard so, in as much as I hate too. 
The switch could be a better switch. Although I have never had a problem with 
the switch or neither has anyone else that I know that has had them. As far as 
the battery goes I purchase a 320 ma battery and put that in and I believe you 
can get from 10 to 12 hours. I do still like these headset very much as you can 
go from computer to iPhone very easy. Also they don’t have an lag when using my 
iPhone. Of course I don’t listen to music so I can’t comment on that. I think 
these are a great headset for the money as you can do the iPhone, computer and 
connect to phone calls. I use mine also for listening to audio books. Again I 
don’t think you can compare these to a pair of headset that cost hundreds of 
dollars as these a quite inexpensive for what they do.

While I agree they are fairly comfortable, I wouldn't go as far as to say you 
don't know you have them on. They are still a reasonably large headset with a 
broad band over the top of your head and I certainly have no problems telling 
whether I have them or not. But we have to be patient with Ed, he is pretty 
old, probably getting a bit senile so I don't blame him for forgetting that he 
is wearing a headset 藍

Hi,

They are not the big over the ear cup style. The pad on the side of them is 
about 3 inches around and they sit on top of the ear. Yes you can hear other 
things around. I like this style because they sit on top of my hearing aids and 
they are very light weight. When you have them on you don't even know you have

Marie,

Thanks for the instructions.

That will save me some time with trying to scan or find the manual online.

They claim a frequency range of 31 to 15,000 hertz  .

That should be fine for most music unless it has orchestra then you will likely 
miss out on the high frequencies.

 

Personally, I'm mostly interested in them for books, Email, etc.

I have really good wired headphones for music listening, so I'm hoping these 
will do the trick for me.

That is not usually something I experienced. As ed says, the switch could be 
better, but so far it has done its job, but I think it might be not so 
difficult to push it not all the way. If this is a consistent issue I’d return 
them and get another pair.

Mr. Ed,
Do you ever find that when you slide the switch to Bluetooth, nothing happens?

A couple of times in the two days I’ve had them, I have had to turn them off 
and on a couple times before the Bluetooth beep would sound and they would 
connect.
I sat there for 30 to 40 seconds with nothing happening.

When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear can 
be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for Bluetooth, and 
the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into the computer.

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-10 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
You toggle between Bluetooth and the USB Dongle with a slider switch which has 
3 positions. At the very bottom it is off, one click up (in the middle) they 
are on Bluetooth and if you push it all the way up they use the USB Dongle.
Apart from the relatively poor battery life I have 2 more complaints about 
these headsets:
1. That slider switch is cheap and I find they could have used a nicer switch 
or simply have an on/off switch and then used a button to toggle between 
Bluetooth and USB.
2. They have no auto-off functionality and with only 6 or so hours of audio 
playback, you better not forget to turn them off manually if you walk away for 
a couple of h ours or you'll come back to a dead battery.
I know Ed says he has 3 of these and I guess even having 2 would be OK if you 
use them a lot, as soon as the battery is low on one you could plug it in and 
use the other.
But given their size I don't think it would be a problem for Logitech to put in 
a battery which provides 18 or 20 hours of playback time.

Hi Mr. Ed,
These logictech sound interesting.
I did not find anything about replacing the battery?
Also, are these stereo or single ear?
Lastly, do they wrap around the back of the head or over the top if stereo?

Thanks,
Richard

Hi Richard,
I have many sets of the Logitech H800 they are very good sounding  They have 
no Bluetooth lagging with VO as far as I can tell. I have used them for many 
years. They are very light and comfortable. You can use them on the computer 
with the mini dongle or you can Bluetooth them to a computer or iPhone. I do 
both. I also use them for Facetime and talking on my IPhone. The battery I 
think last about five or six hours. I have put a bigger battery 320 amp and 
it last for eight to nine hours I think as I have never timed it.

You can get them on ebay or Amazon. They also fold up for easy traveling.
Mr. Ed

Hi all.
I am after recommendations of Bluetooth headphones for my wife. She wants 
the big over the head ones with the big padded ear things that look like 
earmuffs.
She just wants some cheap ones, but with reasonable sound. We bought some 
off amazon but they cause her voiceover to lag loads.

Does anyone know any that work with the speech without lagging.
Thanks
Richard

Marie,
Thanks for the instructions.
That will save me some time with trying to scan or find the manual online.
They claim a frequency range of 31 to 15,000 hertz  .
That should be fine for most music unless it has orchestra then you will likely 
miss out on the high frequencies.

Personally, I'm mostly interested in them for books, Email, etc.
I have really good wired headphones for music listening, so I'm hoping these 
will do the trick for me.

These do go over the head and are quite comfortable. The sound is decent but in 
my opinion, not the best for music. But you can use the USB dongle for use with 
the computer and have it paired via

blue tooth to your iPhone. If you are on the computer and your phone rings, you 
just slide the switch from USB to BT. A little heads up, the dongle is inside 
the cover on the left earpiece.
Here are some really good instruction I got from Mike B:

Device selection switch, located at the rear of the right ear piece.
When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear can 
be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for Bluetooth, and 
the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into the computer.

Volume up, located at 12:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Volume down, located at 6:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Microphone mute, located at 9:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
The mute button mutes all sound input to the headset when playing music.
The mute button mutes the boom microphone when on the phone.

Play/pause or Answer call/end call, located at 3:00 on the face of the right 
ear piece.

Next track/Fast Forward, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between 
the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button down towards the charging port for, Next Track / Fast Forward.

Previous track/Rewind, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between the 
USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button up towards the device selection switch for, Previous Track / 
Rewind.

To put into pairing mode:
press the next toggle button on the bottom and the volume up button at the same 
time for around 7 seconds. On an I device be in BT setting and you will see the 
headset so double tap on it and it should pair easily.

They are not the big over the ear cup style. The pad on the side of them is 
about 3 inches around and they sit on top of the ear. Yes you can hear other

about 3 inches around and they sit on top of the ear. Yes you can hear other 
things around. I like this style because they sit on top of my hearing aids and 
they are very light weight. When you have them on you don't even know you have 
them on.

Marie,
Thanks for the instructions.
That will save me some time with trying to scan or find the manual online.
 They claim a frequency range of 31 to 15,000 hertz  .
That should be fine for most music unless it has orchestra then you will likely 
miss out on the high frequencies.

Personally, I'm mostly interested in them for books, Email, etc.
I have really good wired headphones for music listening, so I'm hoping these 
will do the trick for me.

These do go over the head and are quite comfortable. The sound is decent but in 
my opinion, not the best for music. But you can use the USB dongle for use with 
the computer and have it paired via

blue tooth to your iPhone. If you are on the computer and your phone rings, you 
just slide the switch from USB to BT. A little heads up, the dongle is inside 
the cover on the left earpiece.
Here are some really good instruction I got from Mike B:

Device selection switch, located at the rear of the right ear piece.
When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear can 
be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for Bluetooth, and 
the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into the computer.

Volume up, located at 12:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Volume down, located at 6:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Microphone mute, located at 9:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
The mute button mutes all sound input to the headset when playing music.
The mute button mutes the boom microphone when on the phone.

Play/pause or Answer call/end call, located at 3:00 on the face of the right 
ear piece.

Next track/Fast Forward, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between 
the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button down towards the charging port for, Next Track / Fast Forward.

Previous track/Rewind, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between the 
USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button up towards the device selection switch for, Previous Track / 
Rewind.

To put into pairing mode:
press the next toggle button on the bottom and the volume up button at the same 
time for around 7 seconds. On an I device be in BT setting and you will see the 
headset so double tap on it and it should pair easily.
HTH, Marie

Hi Richard,
Yes the battery is in the left side. I have put in a bigger battery in one of 
my H800. Like I said you will need sighted help to do it as the wire is very 
short and it is hard to get the little plug apart. The new battery will just 
plug in with the connector. The connector is like the connectors on the old 
wireless home cordless phones. I know you can change the battery as I have had 
my wife do it. You can also purchase the batteries on amazon. Just search for 
batteries for Logitech H800 and a number of replacement batteries will come up. 
Make sure you get the 320 ma one.

Great news about the battery, but are you talking about that left ear cover 
where the RF dongle sits?
Is that square spot the battery?
It is a huge plus if one can replace the battery.
That should be something they point out.

I just did a short sample while it is plugged in charging and they sound fine.
Nice and light, you are right.
I may request a pair for work.

I haven't tested the RF dongle as I want to make sure they are fully charged 
before I give them a serious workout.

Thanks again,

Hi Richard,
Question 1: You can take the side cover off and replace the battery. The 
batteries that come with them last a long time. I have had some last three or 
four years and I use my headsets every day.
Question 2: they have sound coming out both left and right I believe in 
Stereo.
Question 3: the band goes on top of the head. They are nice and light as I 
have worn them for eight to ten hours a day.

Also I wear hearing aids and they sit on top of my hearing aids just fine. Nice 
soft pads. They sit on the ear. They are not the cup kind wear your ear goes 
inside.
If you have any other questions please feel free to asked.
Mr. Ed

Hi Mr. Ed,
These logictech sound interesting.
I did not find anything about replacing the battery?
Also, are these stereo or single ear?
Lastly, do they wrap around the back of the head or over the top if stereo?

Thanks,
Richard

Hi Richard,
I have many sets of the Logitech H800 they are very good sounding  They have no 
Bluetooth lagging with VO as far as I can tell. I have used them for many 
years. They are very light and comfortable. You can use them on the computer 
with the mini dongle or you can Bluetooth them to a computer or iPhone. I do 
both. I also use them for Facetime and talking on my IPhone. The battery I 
think last about five or six hours. I have put a bigger battery 320 amp and it 
last for eight to nine hours I think as I have never timed it.
You can get them on ebay or Amazon. They also fold up for easy traveling.

Hi all.
I am after recommendations of Bluetooth headphones for my wife. She wants the 
big over the head ones with the big padded ear things that look like earmuffs.
She just wants some cheap ones, but with reasonable sound. We bought some off 
amazon but they cause her voiceover to lag loads.
Does anyone know any that work with the speech without lagging.

I'm not Ed, but no, you cannot really hear outside sounds as they cover the 
ears.
No, they are not the cup-like, they are soft foam pads that sit flat over the 
ear.
Ed wears them over hearing aids and finds them comfortable.

Hi Sieghard,
You can buy a 320 ma battery that will fit in the H800 and will extend the 
playing time a lot longer. I believe it is only a 265 ma in them when you get 
them. One thing though if you are going to change the battery it is a little 
tricky to get the plug unplugged. It is very small and in the corner of the 
battery compartment. You have to be very careful not to break the wires. I had 
my sighted wife do it with some small jewelers screw drivers to separate the 
plug.  You can find these battery on Amazon. Just search for batteries for 
H800.They are around $10 to $12.

These do go over the head and are quite comfortable. The sound is decent but in 
my opinion, not the best for music. But you can use the USB dongle for use with 
the computer and have it paired via

blue tooth to your iPhone. If you are on the computer and your phone rings, you 
just slide the switch from USB to BT. A little heads up, the dongle is inside 
the cover on the left earpiece.
Here are some really good instruction I got from Mike B:

Device selection switch, located at the rear of the right ear piece.
When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear can 
be slid to its bottom setting for off, the middle setting for Bluetooth, and 
the top setting for RF with the dongle / receiver plugged into the computer.

Volume up, located at 12:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Volume down, located at 6:00 on the face of the right ear piece.

Microphone mute, located at 9:00 on the face of the right ear piece.
The mute button mutes all sound input to the headset when playing music.
The mute button mutes the boom microphone when on the phone.

Play/pause or Answer call/end call, located at 3:00 on the face of the right 
ear piece.

Next track/Fast Forward, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between 
the USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button down towards the charging port for, Next Track / Fast Forward.

Previous track/Rewind, located at the bottom of the right ear piece between the 
USB port and the power/device selection switch.
Press the button up towards the device selection switch for, Previous Track / 
Rewind.

To put into pairing mode:
press the next toggle button on the bottom and the volume up button at the same 
time for around 7 seconds. On an I device be in BT setting and you will see the 
headset so double tap on it and it should pair easily.
HTH, Marie

I've ordered them from Best buy and will be picking them up later today,

They sound like they are over the head, not around the back of the neck, but 
I'll know more when I have them in my hands to try out.

Marie,
Thanks for the instructions.
That will save me some time with trying to scan or find the manual online.
 They claim a frequency range of 31 to 15,000 hertz  .
That should be fine for most music unless it has orchestra then you will likely 
miss out on the high frequencies.

Personally, I'm mostly interested in them for books, Email, etc.
I have really good wired headphones for music listening, so I'm hoping these 
will do the trick for me.

Hi Richard,
I have many sets of the Logitech H800 they are very good sounding  They have 
no Bluetooth lagging with VO as far as I can tell. I have used them for many 
years. They are very light and comfortable. You can use them on the computer 
with the mini dongle or you can Bluetooth them to a computer or iPhone. I do 
both. I also use them for Facetime

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-09 Thread Richard Turner
Great news about the battery, but are you talking about that left ear cover 
where the RF dongle sits?
Is that square spot the battery?
It is a huge plus if one can replace the battery.
That should be something they point out.

I just did a short sample while it is plugged in charging and they sound fine.
Nice and light, you are right.
I may request a pair for work.

I haven't tested the RF dongle as I want to make sure they are fully charged 
before I give them a serious workout.

Thanks again,
Richard

Hi Carolyn,
I don't know if they have the Logitech H800 at Walmart. I have never seen them 
in the store. They have them on Amazon for $60 and on ebay for $49. They are 
worth every penny as far as I am concerned. I have three pair and I have 
friends that have them and they all love them. I was thinking about buying 
another pair for a backup. I hate to be without these headsets as they work so 
well with VO and also sit on my hearing aids and are very comfortable. They 
have great sound and work on the computer, iPhone and any other Bluetooth 
device. If anyone gets a pair of them and have questions I would provide my 
email address and phone number to assist with any questions or setup questions.

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-09 Thread Richard Turner
I'm Charging the H800's right now.
But word of warning to anyone who gets them who doesn't have sighted assistance 
around.
1.  The USB charging cable is tucked inside a sleeve of paper, which is the 
manual and it was lose in the box and fell out on the floor, silently, but my 
wife noticed it.
2.  The little, tiny, RF dongle, is snapped into the plastic holder that the 
headphones are in, inside the box.
Once you get it freed, there is a cover on the left ear that you turn slightly 
and it comes off and reveals a compartment where you can snap it in there for 
storage.
They certainly are light weight.
Once I get them charged up according to the manufacturers instructions, I'll 
let folks know what I think.

My wife did a search and Wal-Mart showed up as carrying them.
I've ordered them from Best buy and will be picking them up later today, 
hopefully.

They sound like they are over the head, not around the back of the neck, but 
I'll know more when I have them in my hands to try out.

Hi Mr. Ed,
These logictech sound interesting.
I did not find anything about replacing the battery?
Also, are these stereo or single ear?
Lastly, do they wrap around the back of the head or over the top if stereo?

Thanks,

Hi Richard,
I have many sets of the Logitech H800 they are very good sounding  They have 
no Bluetooth lagging with VO as far as I can tell. I have used them for many 
years. They are very light and comfortable. You can use them on the computer 
with the mini dongle or you can Bluetooth them to a computer or iPhone. I do 
both. I also use them for Facetime and talking on my IPhone. The battery I 
think last about five or six hours. I have put a bigger battery 320 amp and 
it last for eight to nine

I have a Pair of Koss Protapro on the ear Bluetooth earphones.
They are good for books and emails.
They are acceptable for music.
In that department, they could use more highs.

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-09 Thread Cris Ali
I use the Sennheiser 4.40 BT HD. They are over the head and around the ear kind 
of Bluetooth headset. You can connect to the desktop via either Bluetooth or 
using the 3.5 wire jack that comes with them. Because they are so large the 
batteries last over fifteen hours. Thy can support up to eight connections, 
however, I have not figured out how to switch from one connection to the next.

Cheers,

Cris

Thanks for the instructions.
That will save me some time with trying to scan or find the manual online.
 They claim a frequency range of 31 to 15,000 hertz  .
That should be fine for most music unless it has orchestra then you will likely 
miss out on the high frequencies.

Personally, I'm mostly interested in them for books, Email, etc.
I have really good wired headphones for music listening, so I'm hoping these 
will do the trick for me.

When you have the headset on, the device selection switch on the right ear can

Lastly, do they wrap around the back of the head or over the top if stereo?

Thanks,

Hi Richard,
I have many sets of the Logitech H800 they are very good sounding  They have 
no Bluetooth lagging with VO as far as I can tell. I have used them for many 
years. They are very light and comfortable. You can use them on the computer 
with the mini dongle or you can Bluetooth them to a computer or iPhone. I do 
both. I also use them for Facetime and talking on my IPhone. The battery I 
think last about five or six hours. I have put a bigger battery 320 amp and 
it last for eight to nine hours I think as I have never timed it.

You can get them on ebay or Amazon. They also fold up for easy traveling.
Mr. Ed

Subject: Bluetooth headphones

Hi all.
I am after recommendations of Bluetooth headphones for my wife. She wants 
the big over the head ones with the big padded ear things that look like 
earmuffs.
She just wants some cheap ones, but with reasonable sound. We bought some 
off amazon but they cause her voiceover to lag loads.

Does anyone know any that work with the speech without lagging.
Thanks
Richard

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-09 Thread Richard Turner
My wife did a search and Wal-Mart showed up as carrying them.
I've ordered them from Best buy and will be picking them up later today, 
hopefully.

They sound like they are over the head, not around the back of the neck, but 
I'll know more when I have them in my hands to try out.


Richard

RE: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-09 Thread Carolyn
Richard, one problem I have with my cheapty earbud Bluetooth is not only a 
little lag some of the time, but interference with navigation of Section Index 
in Contacts. I don't know if that would happen with more expensive - worth 
knowing, if anyone knows. I had thought eventually of getting something more 
like what your wife is wanting, but wanted to see how things went with 
Bluetooth. If only my hearing aids had a microphone, because Blue tooth is good 
with them, only for one problem; the haptics come out of the speaker instead of 
the Bluetooth. That is not the case with my eight-dollar with 15 percent 
discount cheapies.

Hi all.
I am after recommendations of Bluetooth headphones for my wife. She wants the 
big over the head ones with the big padded ear things that look like earmuffs.
She just wants some cheap ones, but with reasonable sound. We bought some off 
amazon but they cause her voiceover to lag loads.
Does anyone know any that work with the speech without lagging.
Thanks
Richard

Re: Bluetooth headphones

2019-11-09 Thread Richard Turner
You may find cheap and lag go together, but look for ones that are using 
bluetooth 5 and see if they lag less.
I have an old pair that were about $20 that are wearing out, but Amazon still 
carried them, so I ordered new ones.
But, the new ones had a terrible lag while the old ones do not.
Same model number, so it is kind of trial and error.
hopefully someone will have specific recommendations.

Re: bluetooth headphones

2017-08-10 Thread terrie arnold
Well Barry sure who had a table at the Acb convention his company is called 
guide lights and gadgets.com and you can go look at his company's page and look 
at Bluetooth headset some them are very inexpensive he has ones that I truly 
love there a Apple similar hey Apple knock off wireless earbuds that he sells 
he also sells one that goes behind the head and over the years so not to block 
noise in your ear you can hear what's around you and I also think he sells one 
that goes in one ear, also he sells a but he also sells an LG one that 
restaurant your neck and the earbud comes out from one side on a cord and you 
can just put this in one year they are very comfortable I love them I've been 
using them for two years and they are my go to for Long use as they hold the 
charge for a very long time easy to answer phone calls as when the phone call 
is ringing even if you have your phone The side where you answer the phone will 
vibrate so you know you have an incoming call but you can listen to BARD books 
or music or whatever you choose to listen to or listen to the area agent 
through the one earbud which is very nice because you can hear traffic around 
you plus listen to the air agent and people don't think you're strange with 
your phone in your pocket talking to you

Re: bluetooth headphones

2017-08-10 Thread Jewel
I, recently,  invested in a set of Buffalo Soldier BlueTooth headphones which 
conform to all the 
stats that you listed.
Before the headphones, I had tried an Ultra-Echo?   Wonderboom, but as it was a 
speaker rather than 
headphones, I found it to be, for what I wanted, completely, useless.
Now, I live in New Zealand, so don't know if the Buffalo Soldier bluetooth 
headphones would be 
available in the US market, and, no doubt, other brands would be, equally, as 
good.  However, upon 
enquiring from the store at which I bought them, I was told that  the BS 
headphones are made by 
Marley, which, SURPRISE/SURPRISE!  DJT eat your heart out!  is  in China.
