Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Some headphones sound great, but are as fragile as a tea cup. Or they're durable, but sound like a tin can. Motorola's SF200 headphones are comfortable, sweat-proof, wired sports headphones that can handle your workout and still deliver exceptional sound quality. Plus, with a built-in mic, you can receive and make calls while you exercise.

Sport headphones that deliver workout durability, full-range sound, and convenient control.

In-line playback controls and a microphone for hands-free calls.

Ergonomic ear-clip design, with multiple ear cushions to get a perfect fit.

Sounds Great and Takes a Beating

High-Definition Audio

The SF200 headphones deliver crystal-clear, full-range audio, with 13mm dynamic drivers and acoustic porting for rich bass response.

Total Control

These wired headphones feature in-line music controls, compatible with most modern music players, tablets, and other devices. For the smartphone users, a built-in microphone is also included, so you can receive and make hands-free calls wherever you are.

Workout Friendly

The sweat-proof SF200s are made for exercise, and won't sputter out when you get sweaty--which is kind of the idea. Hydrophobic mesh, silicone seals, and encased speakers all work to keep sweat out and the sound in.

Plays Well With Others

The SF200 Sports Headphones work with most mobile phones, music players, and tablets from Motorola and all leading manufacturers. SF200s are also compatible with the MOTOACTV Fitness Tracker and Music Player.

Get a Great Fit

Everybody's ears are different. Motorola includes multiple ear cushion sizes so you can make sure and get the fit that's best for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great sound, flexible and durable November 28, 2011

By Donna

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)

The Motorola SF200 Sports Headphones are great sounding, are very flexible and have nice soft, durable rubber encasing.

Specs:
- The sweat proof headphones come with a vinyl carry pouch that has a velcro closure.
- Includes 4 additional sets of rubber ear cushions of varying size, with two sets having notches.
- The over the ear piece is very flexible but is not adjustable.
- Has an inline microphone with on/off volume control which is on right side cable.
- The cables are rubber.
- Has cable clip to keep the cables from free swinging or getting tangled while your active.
- The 3.5 mm audio jack has a right angle bend and is also rubberized.
- Motorola's website states the following as the warranty: "Monaural Headsets. Ear buds and boom headsets that transmit mono sound through a wired connection: Limited lifetime warranty for the lifetime of ownership by the first consumer purchaser of the product."

Pros:
- The sound is great for me with a nice bass. I usually keep the volume set to midway and it still blocks most surrounding sounds while in a noisy office or while walking outdoors it blocks ambient noise.
- The wires do not transmit noise when rubbed against myself or anything else.
- The rubber ear pieces are soft and their fit is comfortable for my small ears so no ear canal pain/irritation.
- The mic transmit clearly and I don't need to hold the mic at my mouth to be heard on phone calls.
- Music/audio is paused automatically when you answer a call through the mic control and resumes playing when the call is ended.
- I have found this works with iPhone 4(IOS 5), iPhone 3GS(IOS 5), iPad 1(IOS 5), and Kindle Touch, leading me to believe it is compatible with most smart devices but with limited functionality. I couldn't get the audio control to advance or go to the previous tracks only pause and play, this may the case with most smart device outside of the MOTOACTV GPS Fitness Tracker and Music Player since a review here states pause/play/previous/forward functions work with it.

Cons:
- I have very small ears so the ear piece that goes over the ear, sits even with the top of my ear not flush to the bend at the top, making me wish I could adjust this section for a better, secure fit. The headphones stay on as they are now but since they are not flush behind my ears I couldn't use them for any type of vigorous active other than a fast walk. This is a problem only those with small ears will experience.
- The control only turns audio on and off, and doesn't navigate through tracks or positions in an audiobook.

I would definitely recommend these headphones to most people, with exception of those with small ears since the over the ear piece is not adjustable.

Side Note: I have found with a lot of headphones with audio controls, including this one, sometimes the smart device stops responding to the control. Simply unplug the headphones and plug them back in and the audio control will start to work again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice, inexpensive headphones April 24, 2012

By lapis VINE™ VOICE

Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)

These headphones work great as an inexpensive set that stay in my ears when I run or bike. I've also worn them skiing. I was not looking for amazing sound of quality -- I don't want to spend that much on headphones that are going to get wet with sweat, or frankly, that I might easily lose. This is a set I do not have to stress about using every day. I even use them during light drizzles. I did not have the issues a couple others mentioned about the mic not working. It's worked for me every time, although I don't spend tons of time talking on it. In terms of quality for the price, this is the brand I'd get again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable, Effective Product May 16, 2012

By Ralex

Amazon Verified Purchase

THIS IS A FIRST-DAY REVIEW

I cannot speak for the life of the Motorola SF200 Sports Headphones, as I have only used them for one day. So far, they work well.

PROS:
-Comfortable
-Good sound quality
-Reasonable bass for in-ear headphones
-Rubberized connector and cord will not easily become tangled or knotted
-3.5 mm Audio Jack
-Shirt clip is great when running ( the earbuds won't get pulled out, unlike certain other brand(s) I will not name)
-Will NOT slip off of the ears
-Additional earbuds and Carrying case

CONS:
-In-Line Controls do not seem to exist (unless I don't understand it)
-User Manual NOT helpful (except for an insurance agent, as it discussed damage insurance thouroughly)
-Over-the-ear piece may not fit all ear shapes
-Color of the cord means that it will be visible no matter what you wear (no black/white options, reddish-pink ONLY)

UNTESTED FEATURES:
-Hydrophobic (Water-resistant) "Mesh" lining
-In-Line Microphone
-MOTOACTIV connectivity (Do not own one, and do not plan to own one)
-Product Longevity

In conclusion, these are great headphones for the casual listener, and both the weekend-warriors and the fitness gurus. Not to down their products, but these $50 headphones (unless you buy them at Amazon!) blow away any similar Skullcandy product, as are so popular with todays youth. Definitely worth the money. I will try to write a new review in a few weeks, after attempting to test the features I haven't, and talking about product longevity.
