Pros & Cons

Pros

These are good value headphones with good sound. I give alta the nod on crispness at higher pitches, however, be is pretty da*n close. These are high quality drop in.

Alta is much thicker than be which is razor thin, and because (i think) sp earpads fit pretty snug, alta protrudes a bit too much. Fits into my smith helmet perfectly. Put them in my giro ski helmet behind the ear pads. Giro has a zipper pouch to add ...  Read More

Battery life is amazing, have not needed to recharge in months. Usually it outlasts my phone battery. I usually charge them every other time i snowboard to be sure they don't die on me.



Cons

Apple doesn't recognize these as headphones, so all the headphone features aren't available. The volume * are difficult to press and all but useless with hard-sided ear pads (sweet protection trooper) sound quality is very tinny and the cord is short ...  Read More

My review is bad, im not using them the intended way however most applies to any helmet. In actuality, they are smidge over. The strap that goes over the top of your head is too short. Kinda defeats the purpose of bluetooth.

Difficult to reconnect; in fact, had to delete and reconnect several times. Does not remain sync'd for even a minute.

Quality


The sound quality is fantastic and fits like a glove!


Sound quality, hands free calls, long battery life!


Battery had 75% remaining after one full day of skiing and 50% after 2 days.


Battery life was my biggest question and they lasted 3 days skiing telluride and still had over 50% power left.

Price


No reason to buy the smiths and they cost lots more.


So when this thing popped up several years ago, i did not jump on it because of the price.


So much cheaper than others, yet sound very good.

Shipping


I orders on october 8th and they were delivered on october 9th!

Packaging/appearance


At first appearance the packaging and case these come in are very nice.

Competitiveness


This is the second set i tried and sounds so much better than the other brand at a similar price.


I'm sure there are better sounding options out there, but this is the best bang for buck headphone set up i've found on the mountain.


Sound quality is ok, but i haven't used other helmet puck speakers so i don't have much to compare, but it is a step down from ...  Read More


These were recommended by a friend as more useful and safer than airpods for skiing.
