Thumbs up Motorola S9 headphones

After reading what everyone had to say, I figured I would throw in my 2 cents. I purchased the Motorola S9 bluetooth headphones about 2 months ago and here is my experience.

I first used the headphones before the ROM upgrade to my Mogul or PPC6800 to improve bluetooth functionality was released. I was blown away at how clear and crisp the music was instantly. Holding conversation was not that great at first however. Then after the ROM update was released I noticed the same crisp clearness with music, only now, the functionality of using these headphones to carry a conversation was drastically improved.

One thing about these headphones I really really enjoy is the range! My standard bluetooth earpieces start breaking up when I move only short distances away from the phone. Yet with these headphones, I am able to leave the phone in my room and walk all around my house without any interuptions! Im not sure wether to give the credit to motorola or to HTC for the strength of the bluetooth, but Im guessings its a combination of both.

The controls on the headphones take a little getting used to, as they are touch sensitive. you barely have to touch the headphones to change the track, increase or decrease volume, or answer a call. Once you get used to it, its really awesome though.

As far as the issues with the sweat resistance go, I havent had a chance to get sweaty with these headphones yet. Im hoping they hold up well however. I saved my reciept just in case. I purchased these headphones from Radio Shack on sale for 89.99, but they are available on ebay for much cheaper. Im nervous about purchasing motorola products via ebay though, because I once recieved a hs850 headset that was advertised as OEM genuine motorola, but when I recieved it and checked certain things out from a website that indicates a counterfit product, realize I had recieved a fake product. I will say that even though it wasnt a true motorola product, it was a very useable and quality product, and It still works after using it over a year.

The 3 different earpieces that come with the S9 also make it a great product, since you can choose the piece that is most comfortable. Plus when you are listening to music and recieve a phone call, the music stops, and then when your done with your conversation, the music resumes! The bottom line is that I believe this is a great product, and worth every penny I paid for them. I hope this review helps and if anyone has any specific questions you think I may be able to answer please just ask! thanks
