    Waste of money

    I bought the headphones yesterday ... I cannot believe this. I just paid $250 for a pair of headphone and it wont connect to my MBP. C'mon this is ridiculous ! Also, the users manual is horrible. Doesnt tell you nothing. At least if it's not going to work the way we think it should, include a manual so that we can figure it out. I am returning thiem and will be buying the BOSE with cable ... I would be ZERO stars but seems I can't !!!!

    Poor performance and unreliab make this set of headphones not worth it

    I bought this product excited because it had two things I was looking for: style and function. While the style is pretty cool, the function is terrible. The headphones don't seem to charge properly, and the Bluetooth connectivity is unreliable at best. I turn the headphones on and they will not connect the Bluetooth. I turn them off in an attempt to reconnect, and the headphones will not power back on. I put the phones on a charger and let them charge, and after a while they seem to turn back on. It does not seem to be a battery issue, it seems to be a simply poor made product. I would not waste $250 on these headphones, and I will be returning mine as soon as feasibly possible. If you're looking for a good set of Bluetooth phones look somewhere else. It's either that, or perhaps I just got a bad pair; But for a $250 pair of headphones there should be no such thing as a bad pair, Buy at your own risk.

    They are $100 ok not $250 ok. The range is not far, can't get it to lip sync with video and I get about one dropout per song. But the most annoying thing... Anything that touches or brushes up against the hard plastic ear-cup resonated through the audio, this also goes for any kind of exercise. I think that they will get it right eventually but right now I can do better for less.

    Harman... No questions asked... i thought.... but hugely disaapointed.

    Am exchanging it for the 3 rd hird time in a span of 2 months. The bluetooth refuses to charge.

    The tiny red light goes off within 5 minutes after i put them to charging. I tried on my laptop as well as in a plug socket but to no avail.

    Planning to exchange it now for Zik.....

    The audio lags video very badly on both my macbook and ipad, must have received a defective unit. Will be returning for refund.

    My headset cuts out or stops transmitting all together. Gonna take it back tomorrow and see if I can get another one from a different store.

    Bluetooth dropouts and poor performance

    I bought a pair of these headphones to use primarily with my iPad. While the sound was pretty good for bluetooth, the bluetooth connection itself seemed to frequently drop out and 'lag' behind. I thought I had maybe received a defective pair so I exchanged them but the same problem persisted with the new pair. To ensure it wasn't a problem with the bluetooth on my iPad, I paired with other devices (laptops and phone) and experienced the same problems. If wireless is the feature you're looking for, avoid these. The bluetooth performs too poorly.

    Bluetooth Implementation is a Disaster

    • Written by from Marietta

    I've gone through two pairs (so far) of these headphones. The sound is fine, but the bluetooth pairing is a disaster. I get one or two uses (with my MacBook Air) and then it never successfully connects. (I can see in the System Preferences that it temporarily connects but then it immediately disconnects.) Not much fun to have to delete and re-pair the headphones every other time that I want to use them.
