Bought to replace a 3 year old set that are wearing out, these earphones don't disappoint. A robust build, good battery life and a nice pouch in which to store them. The sound is excellent using apt-x; the bass is punchy and controlled; the mods and treble both very good. An added bonus is the included cord with which one can connect directly to a phone or mp3 player, bypassing the units internal battery. I haven't listened to any hi-tech tracks (although my phone supports them); but I can say that these are the best Bluetooth phones I have heard. Sony are great for audio quality, and at this price far better than rival offerings from the likes of Jabra, Bose, Plantronics et alia.

I started to use h.ear headset few days ago. This is my first wireless headphone so I can't compare it with any previous experience. I enjoyed the quality of the sound and the battery life which is quiet long. I have text the distance and it is enough for me. I should say that the price of the headset is relatively higher than most of the headsets in the market.
