Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I had some old cheap Jensen bluetooth headphones that worked great (I am not a Jensen fan. Had issues with regular headphones from them.) Unfortunately my Jensens broke in a recent move so these looked like a good affordable substitute.
Initially they seemed to be a great solution. Unfortunately that was short lived. While listening to music they would suddenly begin to regularly beep without reason over the music. This was annoying and would happen more and more regularly. I would turn them off and start over. After days of this (yes I put up with it for days) I learned that if I pressed the on of button for a second or two that the beeping would go away with out a reboot. Still annoying but I could get by.
About 1 to 2 weeks later on a business trip, the headphones figured it was a good time to be problematic in a whole new way. (I talk about them as an entity because they seemed possessed.) Now when the beeping started, the volume would increase as if the increase button was stuck, even though I had never touched it because the initial volume was always fine for me. Again, pushing the on button seemed to stop the beeping and then I could lower the volume.
Not to be deterred the headphones went for the jugular. One morning the headphones beeped and the volume disappeared. No matter how many times it was recharged, paired, turned on and off, they never produced sound. That was the final straw. Since I was passing a Best Buy (who sells them), I had them look at it. They could not solve the issue. However, they did have the model up. The MotoROKR S9-HD for $99.00 (ouch). I still had 6 days on my trip. I figured I buy them and keep the receipt and return them if they act up.
They have worked perfectly for 2-3 weeks now and sound better the these S9s. Perhaps someone has had better luck with the S9 version, but I say spend the extra and get the S9-HD version. I had nothing but issues with my S9 purchase for the entire time that I have had them. They started to work again, but it is too late. I'm looking into getting my money back.
