Strengths: Sweat proof...Durable..
Weaknesses: Low volume...Controls unusable....
Overall Evaluation: What a disappointment. No surprise coming from Motorola though. What was I thinking? This headset?s volume is too low to be useful in a noisy gym, or anywhere where there is ambient noise. The controls... The controls.. I don?t know how it made it out into production this way. The two main function buttons are surrounded by touch sensitive Volume buttons one one side, and the FWD and REV buttons on the other side. So whenever you go to pause music, or answer the phone, you inevitably end up either jumping to the next 3rd song, or turning down the already too low volume. I am returning this thing tomorrow.. Avoid it, watt for the next GEN. The Logitech FreePulse is a much better buy...

Strengths: Great soundEasy to use buttons
Weaknesses: A little fussy about the placement of my phone
Overall Evaluation: I use the headset with my Verizon PN-820 smartphone.I found the buttons easy to find and use while wearing the headset. The manual for the S9 says you can't have the phone in your front pants pocket and that it should be above your waist. However, while wearing it indoors while doing chores, I had the phone in my front pocket and it worked well, without any drops.Wearing it outside with the phone in my front pocket occasionally causes a short "hiccup" of dead air. When I moved the phone to the outside pocket of my cargo pants, the phone is near the level of my knee but towards the back of my leg. While wearing it for 2 hours, I had only a couple breaks in sound when using that pocket.I had no problems when I hooked the phone onto my belt.The unit comes with two different sizes/styles of rubber cups to stick in your ear. The larger rubber cup gives a much larger base sound.

Strengths: These headphones are lightweight, fairly comfortable, and seem sturdy. They stay in place when I'm active, which is a big plus.
Weaknesses: They seem to cut out on occasion, battery life not quite as claimed (so far), and Vol/Track buttons too sensitive for my taste.
Overall Evaluation: They work well with my Motorola KRZR K1, which was my main concern when purchasing. I was also worried that they might be uncomfortable (after reading a few of the reviews I found), but they work great for what I need them for, and they are more comfortable than expected. Also, if it matters to anyone, I wear my cap backwards when I work out, and was pleased that I could still wear the headphones with this configuration.I use Logitech FreePulse bluetooth headphones at work, but prefer the Motorola headset design now that I've used them. The hands-free calling feature seems to work, although I have had complaints of too much ambient noise from the microphone when on a call with someone.I haven't had the chance to use them a whole lot yet, and am hoping the battery life increases a bit with use. After my first charge, the phones only seemed to last about 3 hours.Overall, If you are in the market for stereo bluetooth headphones, these are the ones you should get, as they are currently the best choice on the market in my opinion.

Strengths: Stereo headphones and bluetooth ear piece all in one. Yes there is a microphone, apparently in the right ear piece.
Weaknesses:
Overall Evaluation: Works quite well. Outside noise when using the phone feature seems to be less than with any other earpice I have used. Sound quality is good. Controls also work well. Excellent product.
