Not worth the price in my opinion
on February 25, 2016
Posted by: DavidJr
Best thing going for them is that they are truly, completely wireless, when connected to the XBOX One. It has good sound quality, noise cancellation works well, and you can do a lot with them. I was listening to game audio, game chat, cell phone audio, and laptop all at the same time. It was a bit much, but I wanted to see it happen.
Being completely wireless while hooked up to a phone you can take that call without having to leave the game and miss out on what your friends are saying, but the mic is taken by the phone for the duration of the call. Plus, with noise cancellation and the very tight fit, you pretty much hear nothing around you while playing. The DTS surround function worked for the most part, but was not as true or precise as having a home surround sound system. As they do fit really tight, in order to have nice noise cancellation, they did cause me to have a bit of ear discomfort and eventual sweating. Occasional breaks were required.
The phone app is kind of essential for these headphones as there are a ton of presets and it is easier to select the presets through it as well as adjust each volume set.
The bad side is that it has a ton of presets and no personal EQ function. Some presets, like footsteps or super human hearing will distort all other sounds, like background music. Another down side is how easy it is to bump the side of the headphones and change the preset. Then, if not using the app, you have to cycle through each preset (4-6 options depending on the category), interrupting all audio in the process. There is not lock button and this was probably the most annoying thing for me as I have a plush couch. If I leaned back into it I was either changing the preset (back right button) or starting Bluetooth phone audio (back left button). I even accidentally placed a call with a double tap of the Bluetooth button (back left).
These headphones connect to the XBOX One via USB and TOSLink fiber optic cable and require a specific setting in order to work, it is provided in the directions. However, with that, they will work with no other system, as I tried on my home receiver and TV. But, you can get stereo audio through Bluetooth from anything supporting Bluetooth, or wired with option 3.5mm cable.
The final breaking point for me might not have been issues with the headphones themselves, but I kept having different disconnect issues with the XBOX One. Sometimes the mic would drop where I couldn't talk to the party or the party would drop out where they could hear me, but I couldn't hear them. Cycling power on the headphones, re-assigning the XBOX profile, or pulling the USB cable from the transmit station were possible fix actions, but going through all of that in the middle of a game is frustrating. I just feel that spending this much on a set of headphones and having to troubleshoot them like this is not worth it.

Lightweight but not for me.
on December 9, 2015
Posted by: DavidJr
I have a friend that had the older version of these headphones and was always giving them praise. I read some reviews that made these headphones look amazing. However, they did not meet my expectations.
Like some others stated, directions on these are very limited in the package, with a few pictures as if it were hieroglyphs. There are also no markings as to which ear bud is right or left, but in the online manual they point out that the controls are the right. The only thing is, if you want to wear them over the ear instead of under, you have to swap sides, so actual stereo effects will be inverse. The sound on them was clear and full range. However, to me it sounded soft, as if it had active noise cancelation, which they do not. The choice of ear tips was nice. I personally liked the added sound isolation of the Comply ear tips and they were comfortable for longer wear.
The controls are very simple, yet were a bit frustrating. There are only 3 buttons, which is nice to an extent, however, they are limited on what they do. A tap of the volume increased the volume of the headset, not my phone, so to get maximum volume, I had to turn both of them up individually. There is no feedback on when the button was pressed, but it does beep at maximum. The center button works fine for play/pause and answer/disconnect calls, however, I could not tell when a call was ended. There was no feedback, everything would just be silent. The center button has to be held for 2 seconds to activate the mic, though if you hold it for 4 seconds it powers off. So, any delay in the microphone leads to turning your headphones off. I’m used to another set where double tap activated the microphone for voice control, but on this one it is redial. I redialed a few people multiple times cause of that.
I wanted to have these around my neck at work, so that I can listen to music from time to time and take calls easily, but mostly in a single ear. However, if you are not using them in both ears, any movement will make them fall to one side or the other, pulling it backwards out of the one ear in use. If you are leaving them in both ears at all times that you use them, they are great and lightweight. If wearing them for mostly music during activity, in both ears, I think I would keep these, but for my on and off use, these were not for me.

Take advantage of refer-a-friend
on December 8, 2015
Posted by: DavidJr
With the recent sales, the Legendary Edition is the only way to go. You get over $130 worth of content in one package, plus future updates. The game is loads of fun, especially if you have friends to play with.
If you have friends that are interested, but haven't started playing Destiny:The Taken King, now is the time to get onto Bungie's website and refer them (must be refereed within 7 days of starting the game). You both get in game items as well as bonus experience as you play together, making leveling a breeze.
The down side to this game is that it is online only, there is no offline content. After a while, the game becomes really repetitive and the high end content requires 6 players. It is a great way to meet new players, but at the same time can make you beat your head on the wall. It does feel rewarding though when 6 complete strangers can take down the various raid bosses.
If you like first person shooters with the rewards of a MMORPG, this is certainly a game for you.

It's all in how you play
on December 8, 2015
Posted by: DavidJr
If you are the type of player that just wants to get through the story of a game, then this is probably not a game for you. If you like exploring, read extra content, and hording lots of junk, then this game is perfect for you.
Many hours of gameplay, interesting story and a companion to keep you company, or tick you off. With the map having many real resemblances to the Boston area, and a twist to real world events, it can really get you thinking at times if that is how people will talk of stuff 260+ years in the future. Being played first person or third person, melee or sneaky sniper, friendly or aggressive, you can pretty much play how you want to play. You can also use your smartphone/tablet as your real life Pipboy. Allowing you to controlling inventory, track quests, and view the map. It is also great for showing off your stats and talking about missions with friends.
The only down side is that you can't play with real friends. Being able to build amazing settlements and gain loads of followers, just no one real to share it with. I really wish they would have had at least a co-op option. There are so many ways they could have gone about it and it would have influenced other friends into buying it, but sadly it is not there.

By Sunshower
I tried many different ways to find out how to download the Gear VR programs by going to Samsung and Oculus online. All unsuccessful!!

Once you connect the Gear VR to the phone it starts a download for the software. There appears to be no other way to initiate the install. Once the Oculus software is installed, games and applications can be purchased through the application or from inside the store while wearing the device.

1 out of 5Need certain phones to use this.
By Donna
Wasn't told at time of purchase that certain phones were required to use this device. After purchase was when this was discovered. During this time we purchased a new home and was moving. After the move, tried to return the item because I didn't want to purchase a new phone. The only way the store would accept this return was to give me a gift card. I didn't want a gift card that I would most likely not use. Not happy with this policy at all. Also have made posts to FB in regards to your policy. I will not EVER enter your store again or make another purchase from you online. This is NOT how you treat a customer and expect more business from them.
