Altec Lansing Back Beat 906 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones Revi

[bosslydaemon2240]

@vudufly exactly the question I had. I stopped looking for a Motorola S10-HD because I heard one couldn't wear glasses with it

[bosslydaemon2240]

@TheGreatScat yes, that's called earwax

[vudufly]

it looks sweet. the only issue i'm looking at is, can i still wear my glasses/oakleys while wearing this headset?

[TheGreatScat]

I have a problem with mine. The gray rubber turns to yellow color after using it. Is this normal?

[8xav8nco]

$75? damn i'm so lucky, i got mine for $30 only.

[davomrmac]

@8xav8nco Absolute bargain, well done :)

[bengoro7]

I think alter makes the best earphones for a good price

[RussellsParadox]

These things are made of fail. Save your money, people.

[gabochuy]

does it work in the ipod touch 4th gen? can i skip songs and change the volume with the head set or i need to do it in the ipod?

[SantaBarbaraJohnny]

Is it compatible with android 2.2?

[jaskler2006]

does this work with iPhone 4?

[yujisamadesu]

does this work with ps3?

[GangreneVagina]

What an accent on this guy...

[kearan27]

@GangreneVagina yes its called english!

[TheRickdogg]

Q. if my phone has bluetooth, do i need the adapter for the headphones to work?

[davomrmac]

@TheRickdogg That should not be needed.

[Crossover3king]

[HavocGunStar]

I've had good results with this set, no sweat failures yet, a month in, even though I've run a half marathon with it. I have two 'complaints', neither fatal about the product.

1. I wish they 'squeezed' my head a bit more. Especially for calls, I find myself holding the earpieces into my ear. Over the ear part is snug and nice, but the inner-ear part doesn't press in very well, and i often wear a sweatband to get snug seal.

2. The buttons could be bigger, and slightly farther apart.

[davomrmac]

@HavocGunStar Thanks for your comment.

[HavocGunStar]

@28ftw You can listen, but you cannot pause, or use the next/previous track buttons. Not without a bluetooth dongle that supports A2DP commands.

[DoubleD629]

@28ftw yea i have the 4 they work great, use with armband on your left arm for best quality, especially outside while running or something.

[rdt1970]

these really suck, had two pairs 1st pair went faulty due to sweat and second pair faulty due to sweat. bttery life id say is about 2hrs fulltime use ear fit is actually better than jaybirds but not as snug as say moto s9 hd which is what i have now awasome

[emkplayboy6]

Do not get these if you you plan on using them while working out, any lil bit of sweate causes them to short! I went thru two pairs of them cuase of this!

[MrElpatron123]

Went through 2 of these headpohones for the same problem. After a couple of months when using headphones it would start calling person on favorites list.

Returned last headphones with AT&T and ordered JAYBIRD instead for my Iphone 4.

[techi2005]

i have a Nokia E63 could i use this headphones without the adapter?

[poopiestick69]

for everyone who is wondering, it will hook up to any device that is blue tooth compatible.

[willz87child]

great pair of headphones. owned my set for months now, well worth the £90 i paid for them.

[MortQ42]

Does anyone know if these work on a HTC Legend without the adapter?

[TheA7md2009]

is this work with htc hd2 ,pc and mac ? thank

[davomrmac]

@28ftw Should work fine.

[colinmc81]

Hi, Thanks for the review, I seen someone else ask, if these will work with apps etc. and whats the difference, if any, in the plantronics and altec lansing branding?

Thanks again.

[davomrmac]

@colinmc81 They should work with apps, and the branding makes no difference they are identical AFAIK.

[colinmc81]

@davomrmac Cheers Dave and congrats on your 500th video!

[davomrmac]

@colinmc81 Thanks for the congrats! 502 today :)

[Weswada]

Oh my.

A review on headphones, and no music or comfort/wearing or taking/making calls?!

[gordonke]

Good review, I've been reading it should work without the adapter for an ipod touch if it has firmware 3.0. If this could be confirmed it would be the final push i need to buy one.

[davomrmac]

@gordonke I think this is the case.

[gordonke]

@davomrmac Thanks for the very fast reply ^^

[tiagosaldanha]

i use to skype?

[davomrmac]

@neonheist Not when I tested, they were fine.

[MisterJay10]

could i by the earphones and then the adapter apart.

[davomrmac]

@MisterJay10 I don't think so.

[SR71mydream]

thanks very much. ALL questions answered!

[davomrmac]

@SR71mydream You are welcome.

[americaneagle791]

Ok, I need a professional opinion here... I love sound quality and wouldn't sacrifice it for anything... What does it sound like as far as Audio? I mean, for the lows and mids and highs? Does it lack anything?

Oh ya, and I have a iPod Touch 2nd Generation... It does have bluetooth, SHOULD it work? I wouldn't WANT to use the bluetooth adapter but if I really had to I would.

[davomrmac]

@americaneagle791 Audio quality is very good, a little lacking in the highs, but nothing too put me off buying. Should work with iPod touch OK.

[MrNick7891]

Will these work with an ipod touch 2nd gen with bluetooth? Or is the bluetooth not the same on an ipod touch?

[davomrmac]

@MrNick7891 Should work fine.

[beatsandmelodies]

this electronic technology is experimental. further research further development. the headset shorted. another replacement due.

[turetta87]

It has full command? I mean, you can change tracks and volume, all by the headphones? Or the controls are limited? Thanks.

[davomrmac]

@turetta87 You certainly can.

[willz87child]

i own one of these, but beware there is a lot of cutting out, i put my iphone in my trouser pocket and it cut out. I think it picks up a lot of interference from other bluetooth devices, as this generally happens when i am in a town centre or similar. I must say the charge time is a little ambitious. But a great device and i would reccomend it! the sound quality is great!

[JimJamJaaames]

i was so into this product but after watching the review i decidied against it i do alot of running and having the big dongle attached to the ipod would just be crap

[Near456]

yah i hope skip tracking will work on the 3gs and i hope it should be available on future OS updates

[justmiau]

It's just too bad the skip track button won't work with the iPhone 3GS, isn't it?

[dietpepsi01]

not its just to bad that the IPHONE 3GS doesn't allow you to skip track with ANY BLUETOOTH HEADPHONE. get your fact straight before you go around making retarded comments.

[rudyvf]

es compatible con ipod touch o no???

[clevelandkid618]

Does anyone know for sure if they work on the Solstice?

[BiLLiE4LiF3]

I wonder if you can use an ipod touch first gen and a blackberry with bluetooth at the same time?

[JSALINASJ77]

@BiLLiE4LiF3 yeah you just need a bluetooth transmitter for the ipod. But if u have it works together

[sean2078]

yeah, don't try them on or anything or talk about the fit - that's not important lol

[richardxob]

works on ipod touch 2g?

[tjty4423]

yes if it has bluetooth

[Jeahavee]

...A2DP and/or AVRCP

[mfl71]

Hi I would like to know if it works with nokia 5610, thanks

[MajinFrahma]

I don't think it will work with a 1st gen iPhone because it does not support stereo-bluetooth. I could be wrong tho but I'm pretty sure.

Great video Dave.

[shippudenguy]

change your intro back i loved the old one sooo much!!!

[nbanflnhlxbox360sign]

in mexico the headphones are like 800 pesos , its like 70 dollars in US.

[RobinScott93]

Good review. Pricing doesn't make sense at all to me though. When the price in dollars is less than the price in pounds, you know you're getting ripped off. Look like good headphones though.

[davomrmac]

Update... I have found these for just under £70 now.

[mactouchntocco]

They look sweeeet, i love altec lansing

[InTouchWithIpods]

oh my gosh you guys get ripped off in the uk. canada here is usually the same luckily but you guys just get jacked!

[sapper3491]

Dave, Just thought i'd say how much i enjoy all your videos, you have a very clear and interesting way of describing tech. Five Stars *****

[davomrmac]

Thank you.

[nath123t]

very clear review, nice headphones but a little pricey

[rav07]

I'm looking to obtain a sample of these myself.

Once again, a very informative, straight-to-the-point review and keep up the good work!

[sam032015]

£90 or $75 how does that work

[davomrmac]

I think they are on special offer in US.

[davomrmac]

Update... I have found these for just under £70 now.

[zhalvia]

I have one. It's a good and convenience. Althrough it's not good sa the wired earphone, It deliver you an impressive sound for this price.

[shehanster]

wat happened to ur whole intro??

[davomrmac]

Shortened to please the masses.
