Jabra SPORT Bluetooth Headset Review
Some of the hotels we have stayed in had great sport facilities. I have discovered that having the right headphones with me can improve my gym sessions considerably. I hate when the headphones fall out of my ears while doing exercises. So I looked for the right headphones built for the gym. It had to be Bluetooth and not fall out of my ears. The guys from Jabra came up with the right product with the right name, Jabra Sport.
Jabra Sport has nice hooks that fitted right perfectly around my ears, stopping them from falling during any gym sessions. But a word of caution here. The hooks are not adjustable, so you better have a look at them before buying them, as it might not be the right fit for you. I am happy with the size, as it fits on my ears perfectly.
Jabra Sport comes with a nice arm strap for your mp3 or mobile. This sorts the problem of the slightly limited Bluetooth range of the headphones. For me it's OK for the mobile to be on my arm, as I use the headset in the gym and for jogging; as the name says, it is for sport. The audio quality is very good. The music to be well balanced, with an excellent bass for such small headphones. As I am using the headphones with my smartphone, I can also take advantage of the audible workout status updates from the Endomondo GPS tracking app.
The headset is very easy to use, easy to configure, featuring all the necessary buttons, volume controls, track skipping, a microphone for taking calls. I love that it even has a FM radio, so if I forget my mobile in the hotel room, I can just explore the foreign radio stations and emerge myself into the exotic music of the country I am currently visiting.
