My opinion after 2 days of mobile use but 4 years experience in Bluetooth headsets Philips.
The slap is the current price instead of the 100 before the previous model, it is democratized, it is.
The design changes with a touch of white in addition to black. The diodes are even more futuristic than before, light very good definition.
Comfort level, I am pleasantly surprised, it is ultra comfortable ergonomic because it was the black spot of the old model.
The pads are very soft and padded. The headband is also padded. Very good initiative!
Level connectivity, nothing moves, Bluetooth connects each time, the scope is really good.
His level is good for this price range, it always benefits from additional sound volume of the smartphone, pleasant urban or recorded broadcast with its low (interview).
For some flaws:
The 3.5mm cable is a bit too short for my taste to connect to a PC. (I reused the old cable SHB9000 that has the right size).
This partly explains the low price compared to the previous model:
There are more than carrying pouch. (At the same time, I use it 2 times a year).
The lack of mains cable! Indeed, require to have a USB port connected to a PC / battery on hand for charging. Too bad but given its autonomy (one intensive week with the previous model), it goes!
The hands-free kit seems to have improved, but it seems not yet visible in the short term.
For the transition pieces or volume control, Philips decided to put them under the same physical button.
This choice is questionable, hope this button takes the long-term impact.
Finally, Philips has chosen to remove the rubber cover that protected the 3.5mm connector and load pendoullait medium term and was unsightly. I love!
Hope to the supplied accessories will be best for the next model and Bluetooth 4.0 for a range of one month, we can dream!
Of course compatible with all smartphones from the iPhone 3G!
