So, I'll start by saying that I really want to like these headphones... they have a lot of potential and could be really great, but they have some major issues that are really getting on my nerves. First, I've had these for about a week now, and the left earbud just decides not to work as it pleases. I spent about 20 minutes fiddling with it trying to get it to work at the gym this morning and finally gave up. It just would not power on. The case told me it was charged, but it would not connect, so that was aggravating... Second, and I think is a far more common issue: the eargels included are horrible. They are so thin and flimsy that a good seal just is not an easy task. I've tried all the sizes and both types, it just is not a solid seal, and they are quite uncomfortable to get into the ear. For a $250 pair of headphones, this small thing should be darn near perfect, but they are a pain getting them in everytime... It was bearable for a few days, but it's really starting to get on my nerves... such a small thing I would think Jabra would do something about. It seems to be a pretty common complaint with these headphones.
As far as the heart rate and quality of the headphones go, they are excellent. But, the sound quality and the heart rate accuracy are both highly dependent upon quality of seal and security in the ear, which is an issue...
