Apple Headphones Dropping The Calls

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using these headphones for the past week, I must say that I am pleasantly happy with this product. Here are a few key points for those who are looking to purchase. Long lasting battery: Over the past week, listening to music and connecting to my computer for work meetings, I have yet to charge it. It automatically turns off when not in use and connects when needed. So this allows for a longer time of use. Comfort: It is very light, I could hardly tell it was on my head. For someone who is staring at 5 other over the ear headphones, this one is my go to now. Quick connection: If I am on my computer, once I turn it on, it connects automatically now. When I first got it, my tablet (apple), my phone(apple), and my computer (windows) all recognized it and connected without failure. Buttons: The buttons are displaced perfectly on this set. I didn't even have to look at the instructions, it just works! Sound: Crisp and clear for music. Not overly bass heavy, which is nice when comparing them to my Beats. Clear and no background noise for phone calls. I asked many people and made phone calls and everyone stated that they could hear me and I could hear them perfectly. Nice Job JBL!!

Seems like such a small thing, but it really does keep me from losing or dropping or sitting on my good headphones.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hit the jackpot when getting these headphones because I do a lot of work from my computer and need to concentrate and be focused. With the WH-1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones, I can hear crystal clear and have total noise cancellation from the kids or whatever is going on at home. First, let me say that these are super comfortable and not heavy on my ears. I sometimes have to wear them for hours with no discomfort at all. Secondly, pairing is easy and there is a multi-pairing feature so you can take calls, without having to remove your headphones and can switch between your music on one device and calls on another with the touch sensor. You can also skip tracks, adjust the volume control, and activate your voice assistant with the touch control. I like that your music pauses when you remove the headphones and will start back where you were when you put them back on. There is a speak to chat that automatically adjusts volume when making calls so your calls are very clear. The battery life is excellent and will give you up to 30 hours when fully charged. Lastly, the microphones (5) pick up every word with precise clarity. The sound quality is unbelievable! I can honestly say I love my Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless Noise-Canceling Headphones!

Great addition to my V-Moda headphones so that I can use the mic for video conference calls.

Calls are clear, bass is not as strong as in ear headphones. All in all, they’re great for working outside.

One of the best wireless headphones. I've got the apple EarPods and these are way better.

They are juat simply excellent. I have apple pods too but they dropping off my ears. Pixel's has a perfect ergonomic.

First day in use included a PA dropping out of the van, and being a substitute full apple box for the camera op. Its tough. And easy to spot in a pile of equipment. I use this to hold my day in day out DSLR setup including a vertical grip equipped D7000, any 6 Nikon lenses (primes and zooms mixed), and 3 flash units. For video shoots i swap the strobes for audio equipment. My only gripe is that the retractable handle for rolling can be a bit stiff and needs explanation for most people. But thats not enough to rate it any less.

First off, this is a very expensive item that’s an accessory and debatable whether or not you need it for the small convenience it provides. With that being said, it’s a very well made product, works as you would expect from any Apple product. I’ve found it convenient to have messages and calls on my wrist without needing to take my phone out of my pocket. I also spend less time on my phone since it’s not in my hands. One feature I found helpful that I didn’t know the watch had is the ability to take a picture from your phone but clicking the button to take the picture from your watch. This seems like something I’ll end up using more than I would’ve imagined because now you can set your phone up and back up to take a picture rather than holding it as far from your face or body as possible. It’s also very convenient to reply to text messages by using the voice to text feature right on the watch and hitting send. Not having to take your phone out and hold it makes responding while driving or just keeping your hands free is nice. I also have an August home door lock which unlocks from my phone anywhere I have internet and there’s a watch app for this. It’s nice having this on my wrist as well. I’m still learning about it and there’s some great features and conveniences and a lot I’ll never use. If I didn’t like the message and calls and the ability to have LTE to it I’d say go with the WiFi only, but the cellular connection is where I find myself realizing the biggest benefits. I also went with the stainless steel over the aluminum because of the durability. If you have Apple care you can turn it in on a claim, but you only get 2 in 2 years so you have to keep that in mind. But to keep the price down I wouldn’t have too much of an issue getting the aluminum and just getting a case for it. I like that it can go in the water so if you’re swimming, in the ocean, or even in the shower you’ll always have access to your phone and messages.

I have two HomePods setup as a stereo pair. I started with one, which was PLENTY for my home office. But I wanted to Spatial Audio tricks that come with a stereo pair. The Spatial Audio tracks from Apple Music are simply amazing. Better than any home audio setup I've had over the years. I use them with my desktop setup and they pair seamlessly with my iMac and iPhone. I can also take calls on the HomePod from my iPhone, which makes conference calls much easier. The only negative is the price point, but B&H is consistently below Apple and others. If you are considering two HomePod Minis, I'd recommend getting a single HomePod instead for the better bass and mids, plus the ability to add a second one later.
