Bluetooth Connection is terrible
on August 27, 2013
Posted by: Matthew
from Uniontown, PA 15401, USA
The main reason I bought this was to listen to music as I was cutting grass and riding my motorcycle. In both instances, the phone the Tone is connected to is in my pocket. In both instances, the music cuts out so badly that I have been using my wired headphones instead of the Tone because it is that terrible.
The sound quality is great... when it is not cutting out.
If they can get this fixed, I would give this a 4/5 star review. Until then, the problems outweigh the benefit of this device to me.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Works great

I purchased 1 each for my wife and I and we both mainly use them at work. I have not experienced any problems at all and my wife is happy with hers. They connect easily to my iPad and iPhone and the sound, with both earbuds in place, is very clear. For me, and I am sure my wife would agree, they were a good purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Finally, a Bluetooth Headset I like!
on November 7, 2013
Posted by: Fletchman1313
from Honolulu, HI
I haven't used a bluetooth headset in the last 4-5 years; I generally don't like to walk around with any headset stuck to my ear, so I end up putting it in my pocket or attaching it to a lanyard of some sort. However, it's just way easier to simply answer the phone instead of messing with the phone to see who's calling, and then putting the headset on and answering, hoping that the thing is still linked. I like this design because I'm wearing the thing around my neck and it's readily available when a call comes in.
I do not seem to have a problem with range. Others have said that they cannot travel more than a few feet before losing their connection, but I tried it out and went from the front door to the bathroom (which is about 20 feet and a few walls) without losing the connection. I have an iPad Mini and a Samsung Galaxy S4, so it could be Bluetooth 3.0 or whatever the version is.
Music sounds great, and calls are excellent; callers can't tell that I'm on headset.
It also has a fairly long battery life, where I only need to charge it every few days. I have the headset on for about 8-10 hours, and maybe listening to music for half of that, and talking for maybe 5-10 minutes a day. When you turn the unit on, a voice prompt will tell you if the battery is high, medium (although it sounds like she's saying 'median'), or low.
You can also pair with multiple units; however, if you fall out of range of one of the units, the headset will continuously be trying to reconnect with it. So for example, if I am listening to a podcast on my phone and I walk away from my iPad, the headset will throw a fit and the quality of the podcast becomes stuttered.
Overall, I simply love this headset. It is a huge step from the in-ear units I had years ago.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great design but one flaw
on January 3, 2014

from Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, CA, USA
After doing much research, viewing many testimonials videos, and reading many reviews I felt like this would be a great investment for me. I was in the market for a headset that I could use while in the gym and I went for this particular model because I got tired of my standard stereo headphones having wire malfunctions over time.
With these headphones I get a true wireless experience with great sound quality. The connection is great and I don't know if it's the benefit of having an LG phone or what, but I've never had any issue of losing my wireless connection. The battery is phenomenal and I feel like I can go to the gym for about an hour and a half to 2 hours for a full week between charges.
I like that the headset vibrates when I receive a call, and the little magnetic tips are a great design feature especially considering that the wires somewhat have slack. Being able to call adjust my volume and control my music from the headset is a great benefit especially once you become familiar with the placement of the buttons. I also like the audio notifications of my battery level being relayed to me when I connect the device.
My only knock of the headset is when I am at the gym and using these while laying on the bench doing the supine (flat) bench press sometimes gravity makes them fall off of my neck.
With this being my first stereo bluetooth headset I have been thoroughly impressed with the product.

Was not as good as I wanted.
on February 13, 2014

I got the tones a few months ago and at first they were really good. I took good care of them and they haven't gotten any physical damage. But recently they have been having a hard time connecting to devices inches away, and have had a hard time staying connected to devices. If those issues are fixed in the future I'd be interested in purchasing a new pair to see how good they can be.

LG Tone is exactly what I needed!

I recently started walking 6 miles a day. I was using ear buds. Awful. I got the LG Tone at the same time I got an LG G2. It works wonderfully!!! The controls are well placed and easy to use. The sound is great! It is so easy to answer calls with the LG Tone. I could not be happier!!

The best ear bud head phones for me.
on March 20, 2014
Posted by: Sam
from Tampa, FL, USA
The volume is adjustable two was by the head phones and then by the phone. I work at a cleaning company and while on the job I can use them for hours. No cords to hide which is great for me since that was one of my biggest problems. No ear buds falling to the floor. I can change radio station with a touch of a button.
Battery life 5 stars. Voice command is great. It tells me when I am out of range from my phone and when the battery is low. Love it.

Astounding Device
on March 29, 2014
Posted by: samauri
from San Antonio, TX, USA
I have owned many wireless ear devices, but not one has matched the performance of this unit. I work on a busy wholesale plumbing counter and this device allows me to wait on my customers and answer any business calls on my mobile phone with no wires hanging about me. and no fear of earpiece falling of my ear and getting damaged. I would strongly recommend this product for people on the go.
