Review: FreePulse a good set of portable Bluetooth headphones
We were impressed with the headphones’ good sound quality in various settings, especially since they are wire-free. Audiophiles should beware, though; there are better sounding corded headphones on the market.
While on the go, the sound coming from the FreePulse Wireless will not block background noise, which could be a plus or a minus depending on the user. But background noise will not overwhelm the sound coming out of the headphones – the listening experience continues unabated in most settings.
The FreePulse Bluetooth Headphones do not appear to get as much as their advertised 33-foot wireless range, but for the user who plans to throw their iPod or Zune in a backpack or pocket and hit the pavement, the subway, the bus or the gym, the headphones’ 20-to-25-foot wireless range will work well.
While the FreePulse is generally comfortable to wear, some users may find the unadjustable headband too short and somewhat cumbersome. The headband may brush up against a user’s neck when he or she looks left, right or up. Users with big hair, a ponytail, a shirt or jacket collar, or a towel around their shoulders will certainly find the headband anywhere from slightly to significantly awkward.
Overall, if you’re looking for a good pair of headphones to take with you and don’t want to deal with the wires leading to your audio player, Logitech’s FreePulse Bluetooth headphones are a good buy. Logitech suggests a retail price of $99.99 for its product, but shoppers can buy it for [url=http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000J3G2CS?ie=UTF8&tag=bluetomorrow-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B000J3G2CS]US$78.99[/url] or less from other retailers.
