2.0 out of 5 stars Decent on the ears but painful to the eyes, January 15, 2010

(What's this?)

The promise of stereo Bluetooth is great. Who wouldn't love to listen to their favorite music and shows without wires, with the ability to take make a phone call with the same unfettered freedom.

Unfortunately, no one has been able to get it quite right. I've used a variety of stereo Bluetooth headphones, including the Motorola MotoROKR S9-HD Bluetooth Stereo Headsetand the Sony Ericsson HBH-IS800 Stereo Bluetooth Headset (Black)and none of them are perfect. The sound quality isn't great and the connections are wonky. Sometimes they work well, other times there are frequent drop outs - who knows why? They tend to do better with a direct line of "sight," Motorola, for example, places the Bluetooth receiver in the back of their headphones and caution you not to put your phone in your front pocket or on your front hip - well, where else would you put it? Who carries their phone behind them?

That being said, the Tenqas are in some ways pretty good for their low price. The sound is decent and I don't find their connectivity any less robust than other models I've used. If you want to wear them around the house, they're probably a cost-effectively solution. They feel a little cheap, but they are cheap. So, at least you get what you pay for.

But beware - if you're thinking of wearing these out in the world, you better be comfortable looking like the ultimate dork. These eyesores put the ugh in ugly. The models I listed above are at least sleek looking and kind of sexy - the Tenqa's look like something the Borg would wear. They're big, bulky and call attention to themselves with a brightly flashing blue light that will make you look like a nut. What were they thinking?

Pros:
Good price
Work as well as some higher-priced models

Cons
Build quality matches the low price
Tragically ugly - children will point and laugh

2.0 out of 5 stars Average bluetooth headphone, December 1, 2009

(What's this?)

I used these headphones on my HTC Hero. The synching up was very smooth and I had no problem with that. The sound quality for the most part is decent. However, this is just an average bluetooth headphone and in fact, is probably worse than some of the other ones I've had. The headphones itself sat very comfortably on my head.

The biggest con of this is that when I am listening to music on my phone, it will skip at times and if I walk away even just downstairs, it would skip like a broken casette tape. The singer's voice will suddenly speed up for no reason at all and then it would be all broken up.

I also tried these for a phone call and was not impressed. While the headphone is sitting on my head, the other party can hear themselves echo, which did not make any sense as their voice was not being fed back to them. This was not even an issue when I had speakerphone on.

I would probably give this 2 1/2 stars. It has a lot of potential but fails to actually work right when needed.

(What's this?)

I have my doubts when I received this headset, having gone through many and was never happy with any of them. Anyway, initial charging the headset took over an hour, then pairing. I paired this headset with several devices; my Mac Book Pro and Ipod Touch. Pairing took about 5 seconds for each and pretty straight forward.

I am no audiophile, but the sound is excellent. I guess it is not at the level of a good pair of wired headphones, but it is plenty good for me. I walked away from my Ipod at one point to another room, but can still hear the music with absolutely no noise!

The manual came with the headphone is sufficient for operating and pairing the headset, only that it has very small print. Had to put on my reading glasses to read it.

Overall, it is an excellent product. I think I will buy another one.
