What's great about it: convenience
What's not so great: Obviously not made well.
This is what I put on their facebook page. I hope it doesn't happen to you.
"I wanted to let you, and more importantly potential buyers know about my dissatisfaction. I was given a pair of freedom sprint headphones last year for my birthday. Unfortunately, I was not given a receipt and have no way of getting one.
My headphones need to be fixed. The multi-function on/off button is failing. Since you are unable to do repairs the only option is replacement. Without a receipt you are unwilling to replace them for free even though this is clearly a workmanship problem.
Your customer service says all they can do is offer me $50.00 off a new pair. That's a nice way of saying, "we'll only charge you $70.00 for the second pair." This is highly unsatisfactory.
I'm going to think long and hard before "purchasing" a replacement pair. If the switches and internals are made so poorly they can't last 1 calendar year of less than frequent use they are clearly not worth the investment. I hope no one else finds themselves in my position which is why I'm writing this. I will also be posting this to websites that sell these. "
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: basically a decent set
What's not so great: developed a rattle
Used these for a couple of months, they worked fine. As some reviewers note, you can't have the phone in the left pocket, as the signal won't carry. Charing door is a bit flimsy, the on/off button takes too long, frequently ends up in pairing mode. Sound was ok. It will pair with multiple devices, just not simultaneously. Returned it for the newer model.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Great sound, Doesnt Fall out when working out
What's not so great: Sometimes cuts out
I love them. The sound is great, it blocks out the background noise and I have no problems when I'm working out. They stay put and never fall out!

What's great about it: it's great that it's bluetooth so theres no wires.
What's not so great: the bluetooth is terrible, they hurt your ears
the design is incredible. They fit in your ears and they do not move when they are in your ears at all. The problem is that the bluetooth for these headphones is garbage. Every time i would run and my right arm would move forward the bluetooth would cut out. in the instructions it says that your body is made of mostly water so this may interfere with the bluetooth but it was terrible. I couldn't even finish 1 workout with them because i was getting a headache from the music cutting in and out.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good for running. Need to adjust cord every once in a while. Can only pair to one device though. Makes it annoying. But not too many other headsets can do that.

What's great about it: Sound Quality, wireless freedom
What's not so great: Need to keep the device on right side above your waist
The Jaybird is a great wireless headset option, no wires getting caught when working out. sound quality is great, better than my old wired set. Only downside and Jaybird is very clear about this, but your body can interfer with the singnal transmission, therefore you need to keep the device above your waist on your right side, so buy an armband.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's not so great: Battery dies way too fast and stopped working after 4 uses
Great product if the battery didn't die so fast. The reception went out too easy also. After just 4 times using the headphones the stopped working and I had to return them. I would not recommend them to anybody.

What's great about it: It's wireless
What's not so great: Price
The earbuds fit pretty well and are comfortable for a few hours. They sound good, but not great. My $90 Klipsh earbuds sound 10X better. They do serve a purpose, and are adequate for that purpose, so I will be keeping them.

What's great about it: Light weight and conveinant
What's not so great: A little more bass would be nice...
I was looking for a light weight replacement headset that I could use on the plane or as a Bluetooth for my phone. My main concern was sound quality and it needed to be wireless. The price was a little higher than I wanted to spend. The sound is really very good. Not quite as good as my wired headphones, but pretty darn close. I love the fact that their wireless and I can answer / make calls from my smart phone. I use these on the plane while traveling and I love the fact that they are noise cancelling. I can also pause, change tracks, change the volume and skip forward or backwards through my playlist..
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: The nice case they come in.
What's not so great: Most everything about them.
I thought these were going to be great , but I was very disappointed. Sound kept breaking up, I even bought an arm band so my iPhone wasn't in my pants. I return them and got the Plantronics wireless Bluetooth and those work a 100% better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My 30 dollar skull candy's sound better... No lie. The carrying case is a joke... Looks like something ide see through my peripheral in my girlfriends purse. The only positive about these is the that they are wireless. Returned them same day after I purchased when I heard the the quality of my old Walkman headphones audio. All you will be paying for is the Bluetooth.

What's great about it: Easy pairing. Easy to carry in a bag.
What's not so great: Sound quality is marginal....not $100+ worth of sound.
Really is a decent pair of headphones. Sound quality doesn't set it apart from your average earbuds. Battery life is decent. I can get 4+ hours straight of music out of them. Bluetooth range is nice. I can leave my phone in my bag at the gym and have free range, without carrying my phone with me, while listenting to tunes. Haven't tried them with the mobile phone (to send/receive calls)....seems very complicated. Overall, if I were to spend the money again (~$120), I would probably shop around a little more. But, still not a bad choice.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy Set-up and Com
What's not so great: Sound Quality
These were super easy to set-up, very easy to use, and pretty good fitment accessories for proper fit in the ear. Unfortunately, none of these features matter if the sound quality is subpar, and these sound atrocious. The sound is muddled, flat and similar to listening to a loud speaker inside a tunnel. $15 skull candy ear buds blow these away and that's NOT a compliment to Skullcandy just a sad and disappointing comparison.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: In addition with the ear loops, it stays in place while jogging.great sound too
What's not so great: I have to charge every day before use. Sound quality breaks a bit when used outdoors and sound device must be on right.
This is the first pair of headphones that stay in place while running and I've had a lot. The sound quality is also good and the different sizes of ear piece makes it more versatile.
Cons: I have to charge it every night before I use it. Don't know why the battery keeps running down despite switching it off after use. Also when used outdoors it must be on the upper side of ur arm else sound breaks.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy, small and compact,
What's not so great: Very short battery life.
Great headphones, been looking for something like this for awhile, I tried the Motorola Bluetooth headphones, and they broke within a couple weeks. Good sound, good fit, comfortable and they don't fall out easy.
I'm a big time sweater when I run and workout in the gym, and these have taking it like a champ!
Only bad thing is the battery life.
