Does Using Bluetooth Headphones Drain Battery

So perhaps I was too quick to judge. I was having horrible battery life issues with my SL2-S and then I discovered that bluetooth was ON, which is fine, but not when Auto Wakeup is also ON. With this configuration on the SL2-S it will very quickly drain the life out of a battery even when the camera is switched off or asleep. Leaving both of these off significantly improves battery life and if Auto Wakeup is off bluetooth can remain configured ON and not drain the battery when the camera is switched off. Hope this helps others...

I used this product because it is less drain on my camera battery

Love it so much, did not experience any noticeable battery drain while sitting.

Never had Bluetooth headphones till now and I'm loving them.

I love these headphones, so light i forget I have them on, from all day wear, long battery life and long bluetooth range. These headphones are everything I didn't like in other similar products. I especially love that theres no buds that go in the ear and have bacteria grow in there.

Best Bluetooth headphones ever! Outstanding battery life and clear amazing sound. Love that I can work and listen to music/podcasts without interrupting anyone else. Unlike when using in-ear headphones I can still listen to my surroundings. I cannot go a day without them!

I mainly use one at my desk when not charging and using headphones when not using bluetooth. I also have one with my portable battery charger just in case. I’ve never had a problem using Apple lightning earpods and charging at the same time.

The Major IV are the best headphones I've ever bought in years. I've had Sennheiser PX-100 and PX-200 along with the classic Grado which is still in my collection. Considering the 80 hour battery life which is important and the ability to pair in bluetooth to my iPhone is super handy because the headphone jack adapter won't play nicely these days. But also, the beautiful industrial design that's retro and unique. Because I wear a behind the ear hearing aid that has bluetooth as well, I didn't want to drain the battery when listening, so the headphones were a perfect solution to the problem and the soft padding was so comfortable that it didn't hurt my ears at all. After all, I'm old school having grown up with 70s/80s rock music, the sound was excellent even when listening to other genres like EDM or Classical. The point being is that these headphones SLAY the competition in many ways especially the battery life that a certain company with a fruit logo cannot pull off ( no matter how hard they try ). This is Marshall we're talking here. These guys know what they're doing. They KNOW music.

Bought my QCUltra a week or so ago because my Bose Earphones of 20+ years broke and was unrepairable (sadness). When I first received the new QCUltra headphones I was a wee bit upset because I was not used to the new, modern, options available. I called Bose, the lady I spoke with walked me through the setup (I hate reading directions-it's a male thing) and WOW... I LOVE my new QCUltra headphones. The sound is terrific. The battery (I guess it's a battery) holds a long, long charge. I use my QCUltra connected to my Bose speakers (wired) because neither my PC nor Speakers are equipped for Bluetooth (both are what I would call "pre-Bluetooth"). That's OK for now; but when I finally decide to get a new PC it will certainly be with Bluetooth. What more can I say? BOSE QCUltra headphones are the best.

The drain battery feature is brilliant. It helps maximize the life of your batteries.
