180s Mens & Womens Unisex Bluetooth Ear Warmer, Black

These were lifesavers this winter. I trek daily about 1/4 mile from my office to the Metro and stand on a windy platform waiting for the train to arrive. These kept my ears warm as well as playing great music. They did seem a bit small. I think my head is normal sized (physically, not ego-wise!) for a 6'1" guy. These reach around just fine, but to keep the form factor small, the manufacturer sacrificed some "clamping" ability--my term for the comfortable feel a regular pair of audio headphones gives when they are over your ears. Also, because these wrap around from the back of the neck, head movements cause them to slowly drop on the ears as you move so you have adjust them periodically. These are definitely NOT for running. Charging them is tricky and a two-handed job as the USB plug is concealed within the material and it is quite awkward to plug them in. They do stay charged for quite a while. I didn't run any tests to develop empirical data, but I wore them every work day for an hour or more and only charged every 10 days or so.

I have always loved the 180s design. It's amazing how the wind not blowing in your ears can help keep you warm feeling. It has been a hindrance though when I would get a phone call while out and about with them on...not any more! These 180s with Bluetooth paired up easily with my Motorola MAXX HD. Now I just keep them on and touch the bottom on the 180s and answer my calls, listen/pause music, and even listen to the game through them using my Bluetooth device I have in my pocket. The quality of the sound is surprisingly good and you need to talk in a 20% louder voice when in an open environment when on the phone but in a room or car normal talking voice works great with the built in microphone. It's kind of nice having some music on at a low volume and still be able to talk to my friends while keeping my ears toasty warm! I love these so much I just ordered two more pair for back up since my teenage son who refuses to wear a hat took my back up and he loves them as well. Thank goodness I found something that will keep part of his head covered while outside. He likes all the advantage mentioned above and the fact they don't mess up his hair like a hat does. Finally, yes, they are SIRI and Google Now voice command compatible for total hands-free use. Thank you 180s!

First off, I hardly ever review, so when I do, it means the product really had an impact on me. This review is for first impressions, initial sound quality, fit, and comfort. I have not tried placing calls, but I'm sure that's hit and miss with any bluetooth, etc.Ok - I do not have a large sized head - 6 7/8 in a starter cap. These fit me PERFECT out of the box. They are adjustable for medium to average sized heads. I have owned the previous 180's and felt those stuck out too much in the back in the smallest setting and had to adjust them constantly - annoying. These new bluetooth 180's had fleece type material in them, which is different than the picture featured, which is a good thing. They keep my noggin' warm.Easy to pair with bluetooth - my iPhone has 4 bluetooth products programmed on it right now so I have a bit of experience with these wireless type of products - I hope one day science doesn't find that bluetooth causes cancer cus' I'd be screwed. I'm also pretty picky with sound quality as I own JBL Studio Home Theater System, Premium Car Sound System with amp, and Klipsch S4 in-ear headphones. I was surprised by the sound quality. It was better than expected with more bass more than you'd think - reference dre beats headphone snobs/users steer clear, not for you - and not that type of product so ignore the pessimists on here. I'll be rockin' these beauties on my way to downtown and throughout Denver - it's been known to hit neg 9 degrees in recent weeks. Cheers.

I have had 180s for several years and thought I'd upgrade to the Bluetooth enabled pair. The sound quality is great, and they keep my ears warm. But the 180s are heavier than the kind without Bluetooth because of the speakers and technology that is built into them. So it tends to feel like they are always gradually, slowly slipping down off of my ears and I keep having an urge to readjust them. Also - they aren't as flexible as the ones without Bluetooth so you can't increase or decrease their length like you can with other 180s. I think if I were to have the chance to purchase them again I would just get a pair of regular 180s and a separate pair of Bluetooth wrap-around wireless earbuds and then cover them with the 180s.*Update to original review (1-15-15): I've been using the 180s to listen to podcasts on my walks to/from work, as well as listen to music through my Spotify account. With both, the sound quality tends to be choppy. If I'm carrying the phone in my back pants pocket where I usually carry it, then forget about it - the sounds will constantly chop in and out. So I'll carry the phone in my jacket pocket, but even then - it's spotty. I might be fine for a stretch, but for no apparent reason the sound will go through times where it's choppy and difficult to hear. And I'm not streaming the Spotify music - I have a premium account and the music is downloaded to my phone.SO - if I knew that the device would perform at this level, I gotta say, I probably wouldn't have bought them.

I bought this for my husband as he walks to walk everyday and really needs a Bluetooth 180 to listen to music and talk on phone. First the fit - as others wrote, it does seem to be a bit small on my husband, but he said it fits ok. To me it looks like its too small and going to pop off his ears. But he likes it, go figure!Setup was easy once you find the charger location. Bluetooth is not so good. Whenever he tries using the phone, the person he is calling can hear him just fine, but when they start to speak, they hear echo of their voice. This happens with every phone call. He has tried it with iphone and android phone and still same thing. So for $80, save your money. I would not recommend these since we could never get the echo to go away which makes using it for phone, useless and too expensive to just listen to music. I really hope they fix this because it would be great solution for those of us who walk everywhere in the winter!

Easy to connect and very simple to use.The physical design is great... compact when storing, stretches over my big hair nicely too.Often little problems with the sound cutting out and going crackly.I THINK this tends to happen when I'm cycling through the busy city.Maybe other bluetooth devices are interfering... DunnoMainly given 4stars cus the microphone is rubbish.Rarely use it as a hands free, but when I do ppl complain about a very echoey sound, then get mad and hang up.But you shouldn't be talking on the phone while cycling anyway shopper!

These headphones are comfortable to wear, and as I have hearing aids in both ears was just great as do not make your ears uncomfortable with wear, was great as able to move about without worrying about wires. Only drawback was getting it to pair up but eventually succeeded

I couldn't get on with these - sorry, they connected briefly, then wouldn't connect again - I gave up after trying for ages and returned for a refund!

I live north sweden and am out 7 hrs a day need to be warm and they are good sound and good for calls fantastic idea, but for small head

Very good
