Decent value for stereo Bluetooth headset/mic
on January 25, 2014
Posted by: JT
from Mesilla, NM, USA
It does what is suppose to do: decent audio for listening to music, radio, etc.. Microphone pickup is ok when using with phone. The Bluetooth connection itself is on the low-end of adequate. Sometimes losses connection when I put LG Nexus 4 in my back pocket. This could be a problem the Nexus 4 bluetooth, but I have seen numerous other reviews reporting this same issue. Overall; for the price, and design it is currently the best I could find.
Pros: price
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Headset

I was looking for a good set of Bluetooth head phones for working out and stumbled upon these. I finally decided to by them after reading other good reviews. I am glad I bought these. I use them all the time, either sitting at my desk at work, working out in the gym or on the track, or on the road in my car. I was so impressed with this headset that I bought a pair for my wife for Christmas and she loves them as well. They have great sound quality and great call quality. If you want a good pair of headphones look no further.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality

Falls Short of Expectations
on February 8, 2014
Posted by: Nick
The best attribute for this device is convenience. Beyond that there are some shortcomings:
First and foremost is the annoying flashing LED. When in a dark environment it is very distracting, especially if in a car. Eliminating the flashing status LED should be first and foremost of any future generation of this product, or at least LG could make a patch available that would address this.
Second is the sound periodically drops (paired with iPhone 4s) for a few seconds. Other devices do not do this so it is specific to the LG HBS730. It is most readily apparent when there is a lack of background noise such as when listening to spoken podcasts that have moments of silence.
Third: The magnets that hold the ear buds in place need to be stronger. They frequently fall out.
Finally, the wire management clips get pulled from the unit and disappear leaving an excess of ear bud wire flapping in the breeze.

An excellent design idea, however, being this is a replacement to the 700 I expected more.
Pros: Style/Design

I love it

I really love this Bluetooth I highly recommend it you can listen music plus it does help me hear the other person better. The only thing I don't like is the clips harness for the ear bud they break real easy and I haven't been able to find them anywhere yet. So music lovers or just need a bit of help to hear better this is for you.

Great Sounding, Wireless Headset 4 the Money
on February 19, 2014
Posted by: Firedawg61

I bought a set of these about a month and half ago when I got my new S4 phone. Synced easily and the sound quality is amazing for the small speakers. Very comfortable to wear all day. The wires that connect to the buds are sometimes a little annoying and I wish the magnets that hold them in place were a little stronger but overall the headset is well made with easily usable features. Will be curious to see how they do when sweating in the GA heat. Battery life, for my use, is excellent. So far, overall pleased with them and would recommend for folks looking for a wireless, stereo headset.
Pros: easy to use, Features/Settings
I would recommend this to a friend!

LG stands behind their product
on February 25, 2014
Posted by: cokemeistr

I was worried after about 6 months, there was some static or small places where my audiobook would cut out. I had bought an extended warranty but I didn't realize that didn't take effect until after the first year. Lucky the guy at the store said call them company. They explained how to do a "reboot" and I haven't had any problems since. I use this almost on a daily basis. I would highly recommend because if there are any problems, LG will assist you.
Pros: Style/Design, Features/Settings

I can't remember what I did without my headset! It is easy to use it sounds like you are talking through your phone. You don't lose sound quality when you listen to music. I use mine to watch movies on my kindle and listen to music an talk on my phone. My husband has one also and we have bought some as gifts too. Only con was the clips that hold the ear buds can get lost but Lg customer service was great and shipped replacements right away. If I was going to not pick, I would say I wish the magnets were a little stronger other than that I love it.
