UPDATE (22/02/2009 10:35 CET): I’ve continued testing the headphones outdoors to find out whether
- it’s sensitive to interferences and quickly changing signal reflections (no, it isn’t)
- it’s capable of delivering sufficient volume in a very noisy street so that the podcasts I listen to still remain understandable (yes, it is; naturally, you might want to disable the built-in megabass when turning up the volume that high)
- wearing it for an extended length of time turns out to be tiring (no; it’s as easy to hold as for example the Gear4 BluPhones with the exception of they staying on the ears and your not having to be afraid of their dropping)
- the call quality is sufficient in handsfree mode (it is; tested this on my N95. Everything went just OK) and the switching between A2DP and handsfree mode is seamless (on the Nokia N95, it is).
Currently, I don’t see any point in NOT recommending this headphones. Sticking to its category (earbuds), again, it produces way better sound quality than even the Zune 8 GB earbuds. I consider the latter one of the best, but still cheap earbuds. Yes, I know they are considerably worse than even the Zune 80 GB ones, let alone for example some of the Sennheiser earbuds, but I won’t pay THAT much for any cabled headphones just to be able to compare its sound quality to the A2DP headphones I test now and then. (Nevertheless, they’re still considerably better than the factory earbuds coming with both the iPhone 3G and the Nokia N95.)
