4 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good Sound   January 7, 2009
I'd held off on bluetooth headphones for a while, figuring the sound would be too disappointing. Well, with these the sound is excellent. The headphones are very comfortable and insulate against background noise nicely - they're ideal for working in a noisy environment or in the car/airplane. My only complain is it's a little confusing to get them turned on and verify they're actually working. You have to hold the "phone" button until it turns SOLID blue.


4 out of 5 stars Using with a Bluetooth transmitter   January 7, 2009
My purpose for buying the S805 headphones was to hook them up to my Home Theater so that I could watch movies, hear the PS3, and listen to music all in one place.

Most of the other reviews cover the product fairly well, so I will mention the one thing that made a difference for me: the Bluetooth transmitter.

I had the Jabra Bluetooth Music Adaptor (A120s) and figured since my Motorola S9 Headphones worked fine with it; then these Motorola S805 headphones should work fine as well. I was wrong. After spending close to an hour of transfers, hang ups, and poor English, I finally got an answer from someone at Motorola's support line: "The S805 is not compatible with your transmitter." I asked them in return, "do you sell a transmitter that will work with them?" for which their reply was, "Only one that works with an iPod."

So, I had to find another alternative. Someone here at Amazon mentioned in their review that they used the Sony Bluetooth Transmitter Adaptor (TMR-BT10A) with success. I broke down and ordered this, investing more than I had intended, but was pleased to find that the Motorola S805 headphones indeed work with this Sony Transmitter. I haven't used it much to do further testing, but it seems to work fine at close range; walking out of the room cuts the signal in and out, and if it totally drops you have to re-sync it. But I'm usually sitting on the couch, less than 10 feet away, and so far it works like a charm.

So to sum-up:

1) Jabra Bluetooth Music Adaptor (A120s) = does not work with the Motorola S805
2) Sony Bluetooth Transmitter Adaptor (TMR-BT10A) = does work with the Motorola S805

If there are others, I'm not aware of them.

Other things to note on transmitters:

1) My Bluetooth dongle on the computer did not connect these headphones either. My understanding is that you must have an A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) compatible dongle for it to work.
2) The PS3 may have connected the device, but I didn't try as after some research, I learned that the system does not play game sounds and music through the Bluetooth connection. It is only good for talking back and forth with other gamers. Hopefully Sony adds this feature in the future.



4 out of 5 stars I like this product   January 1, 2009
I had a crappy pair of blue tooth headphones before so take my advice with a grain of salt. I LOVE the controls to change tracks and volume. You swivel the outer portion of the earphone to make these changes. Battery life is excellent (had these for about 3 months). Sound quality is excellent. I have a large cranium (XL motorcycle helmet) and they fit great. The pads are rubber which makes my ears sweat after a while. I wish they had some optional foam covers. I can only take wearing them for about an hour before it becomes bothersome. The case is super cool. Makes taking them on the road easy. I will not comment on bluetooth signal quality because my Tilt 8900 may be the cause.


1 out of 5 stars Not recommended for real-time listening or movies   December 24, 2008
This is not a complaint on the vendor, but merchandise does not meet my expectations. Audio has around a 1/2 second delay, which makes this head phones useless when watching movies or other real-time events.
This is apparently a typical bluetooth technology problem as I have seen on different internet forums. However this problem is not noticeable when
listening to an audio CD or an MP3 player.
