So how on earth could these be high performance. Let’s start with the specs-

– Drive units – 11.5 mm
– Sensitivity – 110db
– Impedance – 32ohm
– Cord – Flat 1.2m
– Microphone sensitivity -42db

Well, they are not high fidelity headphones but they are incredible value for money. The are for people who like a bit of bass, actually a lot of bass. Consequently, the miss and treble are recessed. I had to turn off my EQ on my Note 3 and iPhone. And still they pounded the bass out. Actually, these are a great fun headphone sound and one for my collection.

The flat cord is handy too. The microphonics are ok, nothing to set the world alight. There is a play , pause option on the cord too.

But for just under £7 I have not heard a better fun sounding headphone.

Rating 7/10.

Colourful or tasteless – Samsung introduces new coloured backs for the Note 3

20140215-095245.jpg

From bright yellow to line green and other colours, Samsung has introduced the new replacement back covers for your Note 3.

I’m trying to decide if I want a yellow or lime green and at the same time whether it’s even a good idea.

Would you change your phone to one of the above colours?

Cellz Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-503 review

20140207-114424.jpg

The Cellz Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-503 is currently £33.97 with free shipping to the UK.

The specifications are –

– neckband for multiple uses
– Bluetooth v2 with EDR hands free. Headset A2DP and AVRCP
– Frequency response 22 – 18,000 Hz
– Total Harmonic Distortion less than 0.5%
– Music and talk time up to 13 hours
– Fast charging – get up to 75mins music with 20 minutes charging
– for mobile phones and computers

These Bluetooth do exactly what the say on the tin. I’m so pleased with these I bought another pair for my wife. The only thing you will need is an adapter as it comes with a shaving plug. Luckily my bathroom has an electric socket for shavers.

Music quality is just above average. It’s not at Sennheiser levels but it’s fine. I did you a slight EQ in a Google Play Music but getting a loud enough volume was not an issue whatsoever. They don’t have thumping bass, just a little to not overpower the music. Occasionally the music did seem to slow ever so slightly for a split second. Not sure what or why this is.

Call quality was ok, nothing to set the world alight but fine. The neckband held firmly around my head. It’s non adjustable but it fitted my large head and did not feel like it was going to fall off.

Controls – music controls for track rewind and forward, play pause and answering calls. Volume up and down.

A reasonable set of Bluetooth headphones just let down by the non standard charging plug for which you will need an adapter.

Rating 8.8/10.
