    anyone actually taken delivery of these yet - ordered sat 7th and still waiting
  • I received mine yesterday and if I'm honest I'm not at all impressed so far. The sound quality is poor, has no bass quality and continuously jumps or slows down tracks when listening to music. This is despite being outdoors away from any interference.

    I'm connecting to my Orange M3100. Maybe it's just my headset. If anyone else is experiencing problems or find theres to be ok please let me know.

    They do look great though !!

    No such problems here, they work a treat on my LG U400. Sound is crystal clear and bass is more that enough. There is a delay but you'd expect that with Bluetooth!

    So far 9/10 :D

    I got my BT30Q over the ear ones yest...and they ok.

    Sound qualitiy is pretty good with my SE K610i...and they go pretty loud with decent bass.couldnt hear a difference when the fone was in my pocket....but started to distort when the fone was in another room....which aint bad.

    Talking thru it is rubbish...You can hear the other person fine...but not good for the revieiving person.
    My Plantronic 510 is much better.

    Also the unit is heavy...can get a bit unconfortable on the ear after a couple hours wear...and arent on very secure...would fall off if i went running.

    But overall...for the price...they aint bad.


    Chris1978...is you fone set to headfones mode or headset mode. If its in the normal headset mode...sound quality is much worse...that could be a reason for poor sound qual.

    I faffled about too much and couldn't decide even after saying I'd give em a miss lol, then the price went up. I got a set of the 20NX's off ebay for less than the current price which came yesterday. The sound quality is excellent, deep rich bass, good mids and highs. The call quality is very good too and the caller can hear me well. I also tested them on my pc, same great quality. Very happy with them.

    Saying that, I also bought an M2 1gb memory card off a 0 feedback seller which I never do and got an empty packet yesterday, no reponse, looks like a Paypal claim is in the midst.

    Maybe your headphones have a fault, although most likely your phone is the problem not being on the correct settings or it's just not up to the job.

    Do these things also include a microphone or not?

    Yes they do.

    Ive got the BT30Q's and the call quality is not amazing...i can hear the other person fine...but they cant hear me as good a i can hear them.

    My plantronics 510 have much better call quality.

    Tho that could be cos the mic is on the headfone...the others with the lanyard may have better quality as the mic is closer to the mouth???

    I have also found 1 prob with the headfones.

    For some reason...if I connect to the device to my phone (directly as opposed to just switching the bluetooth on and letting it pair automtically)...if i change the playlist that im listening to...it will not play the sound of the new song.

    However if i switch the bluetooth on...and let the devices pair automtically, there are no such probs...mite be of use to other with an SE fone.

    Dunno if the same applies for the other models.
