Pros: Comfort, style, controls.

Cons: Murky and pronounced low end.

There is no sugar-coating it, this 'phone has a dominant low end and a murky one at that.  I find that with some eq'ing I can get a pretty good sound out of these but there is no hiding the bass heavy bias.

 

Great controls and design.  I never realized how handy it is to go wireless until I got these.  Very light and comfortable.  Not totally isolating but mutes surrounding noise enough while alowing you to stay aware of your surroundings.  Annoying flashing bluetooth light distracting to others in dark enviornments.  Nice carrying case. 

 

Im ok with the compromises as I got these on sale but for full retail price I would be dissapointed due to the sound but they are convienient.

I've been thinking about picking up a pair of these guys as they meet my commute needs. Where did you find them on sale for 179$? (Store, country, etc.)

futureshop.ca has them in Canada for $179, also in store. They would be a great commuting phone, with the call handling and control of the phone being very well done. They sound ok with a boost in the mids and highs or pulling the bass a bit down but there is still a lack of clarity I can't get past. Though for a wireless phone I don't know if I should expect them to preform like a wired set of cans in the same range.

$179? Don't you mean $279? I just checked FS' website and it says $279.99...

It was $179. The sale must have just been a week long.

I've been waiting for a real world review of this BT headphone. You may have heard the bass from the beats or sol republic, how would you compare the bass on this.
