Matched, of course, to other Xbox accessories. Decent build and sound. Nothing great. Good value.

Connects fast but they don't stay in

These headphones have great specs and, when you seat them properly, the sound is quite good. BUT... I simply could not get these in-ear buds to seal. And if the seal isn't there, there is NO bass and, of course, you lose most of the isolation and sound quality. After trying all the different sized buds with no luck, I returned these to Best Buy.

Glass is crystal clear and so smooth

I've had a wide range of screen protectors on many devices and Zagg Glass blows them all away. So smooth -- no drag, no degradation to the iPhone's amazing screen. And I don't have to worry about scratching or dinging the iPhone screen. Worth the price. And Zagg is great about replacing if you damage it somehow (just remember to register your Zagg screen at their website.)

Flashing Red light, even though it is on the charging cradle?

Just after a few weeks of operation, my Bose Soundlink Mini Bluetooth's power led started flashing red, even though it was on the charging cradle. I didn't think much of it, since I thought it was not seated correctly on the charging cradle, so I lifted it off the charging cradle, and re-seated it back on the cradle again. The same thing happened after another week of usage. I repeated the steps I did during the first instance, and called Bose Technical Support yesterday. They claim there is nothing wrong with the unit, and that the power led would first turn yellow before flashing red. I admit, I have not been staring at the unit all the while I use it, but I have never seen it display yellow. Bose Tech Support claims there is nothing wrong with it, but in my opinion having the same thing occur twice in a span of one month indicates that all is not right. Any advice in this regard would be helpful!
Assuming it currently works, try this: connect it to your usual source and let it play until it completely runs out of power and shuts itself off. Then put on the charging cradle, making sure everything is connected cleanly (including the little power adapter plug that goes into the side of the charging cradle). Let it charge fully (overnight, ideally). Then see how it is working. I have battery operated power tools that sometimes go through this (frustrating) loop. Sometimes this is all that is needed. These lithium ion batteries occasionally need to go through 'full' recharge cycles to keep them fresh.

will my bluetooth connection work with the mini link bluetooth speaker when i am visiting france?

i am traveling to paris and will have my iphone which has lots of music via spotify on it.
will i be able to use the mini portable to play my music via the iphone?
Absolutely! Bluetooth is not like cellular. The connection is local and direct between the speaker and your smartphone/tablet/laptop.

Just remember to bring the proper converter so you can charge it.

Why are the Aux, Mute and Bluetooth Lights blinking white when connected to AC and not charging?

The device was working fine, then stopped. I've charged it 12 hours, still won't turn on. Tried the Mute reset option, get the 3 blinking indicators and then nothing. The only response I get is when I plug it into AC power, the 3 lights go on and then turn off, and I hear static. What is going on!? Firmware update also tried, device isn't detected (aux button does nothing when pressed)
Sounds like a bad unit. Call Bose--their customer support is usually excellent. You must still be under warranty too so a replacement unit shouldn't be a problem. Mine , so far, had worked flawlessly. (And for a little speaker it sounds GREAT)

Easily remain in your target zone with help from this Garmin 010-10997-07 heart rate monitor that wirelessly transmits data to compatible devices for efficient tracking. The soft fabric strap promotes comfort and adjusts to ensure a secure fit.
 

Is this compatible with the garmin forerunner 15?

i don't know what features your forerunner has but I am assuming as part of Garmin's runner's series it does couple via ANT/Bluetooth to their own HR monitors. I demoed several of Garmin's current models before settling on the Fenix3. All of the units connected quickly and without any problem. Each model does 'pair' slightly differently however so make sure you read the forerunner instruction guide (easily downloaded from Garmin's website).
