Default Sony BT stereo headphones.

Does anyone here use these headphones? I really want to purchase them and the reviews I found by google are pretty good. I just want to get someone elses opinion before I buy them. Thanks.

I bought these off a UK website for about £20! They work great on my Universal running AKU 3.2. I had to implement a few registry tweaks to stop all the skipping, but after all the tweaking, it now works perfectly.

Sound for music is excellent. Volume is loud. The quality appears a little lower for voice conversations, but on my Universal, it transitions seamlessly most of the time from phone to music modes.

Be prepared for all the little problems that might happen, which probably aren't exclusive to these BT stereo headphones. As you probably already know, most BT stereo headphones don't work flawlessly all the time. Mine's been behaving very well 99% of the time though!

Take a look at the blackberry forums:

I've used them before and honestly, the sound is okay but NOT GREAT.

Try this combination:

iTech stereo bluetooth + Sony MDREX71 earbuds... You won't regret it...

I have those earphones. They work allmost well.
Everytime I turn bluetooths on I must go to bt settings and activate headphones/headset or they wont work.

Sound quality is poor to my taste. But I hope there is something else to do with registry or stack.

I did that registry trick to bt value 58, but it sounds still like not enought hz. Like old radio or something.

But no wires and almost no skipping. I like it.

Did you try pressing the MFB after bluetooth is turned on to initiate the connection?
