Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Good at first, but broke after 2 months Comment: So, I was attracted to these earphones because of the price. They seemed like a great deal but the poor quality construction was evident right off the bat. The first pair that I ordered were broken during delivery (right near the top of the "U"-shaped arm holding the phones in place) so I had to get another pair. They worked great for about 2 moths but after even gentle handling, they finally broke and are now not usable.
I'd recommend them only if you get a *really* great deal, but even then, expect to replace them soon. Customer Rating: Summary: You Need to Know this Product is Crap Comment: I don't normally write reviews online but I felt I had to in this case. This was a cheaply designed pair of headphones. I bought them about 4 months ago and both sides have since snapped. It was not due to negligence on my part but simply trying to adjust them on both occasions. I would recommend spending more money for quality headphones from another company or even spending less somewhere else because you'll likely end up with a better product.
The sound quality wasn't poor but it wasn't excellent either. I would not consider these "noise-canceling" either. Noise buffering, maybe. They should be advertised as happiness-canceling headphones. Customer Rating: Summary: broke in 2 minutes Comment: My office purchased 12 of these. In less than a year all but two sets are broken. One pair broke the first time taken out of the box. they broke at the ear piece junction with the head band...same place others have stated. Customer Rating: Summary: Don't deal with Logitech Comment: I received these as a gift back in November 2007; he got them through TigerDirect. I used them daily at work, an office setting, until, like others, the left swivel attachment broke. As a temporary fix I taped them until it just got on my nerves. The packing slip said that the 1 year replacement was for AFTER the manufacturer's warranty was up; doing my research on Logitech I saw that that period was for 2 years. So I was golden, right? WRONG. I called Logitech and simply because I removed a STUPID little round sticker with a P and three numbers on it from the actual headphones, it voids the warranty. NOWHERE could I find anything telling me NOT to remove this stupid little sticker. And besides, how long would something like that really be expected to last, anyhow?!I'm really fed up with Logitech. Don't give them your money. (Indeed, TigerDirect cannot replace them until November 2009; called them to be sure) Customer Rating: Summary: Good sound and features, but poor construction Comment: Like others, I had the issue with these breaking at the ear piece swivel. This is from normal (light) usage. Having only used them on a few plane trips over the course of 6 months. These headphones are discontinued. So all Logitech could do is offer me a refund.
I also was beginning to have an issue with the sound going in and out on the right side prior to the breakage described above. Too bad about the poor construction.
The sounds was good, and nice features while they worked (which was not long). The noise canceling worked well to reduce airplane noise and passenger chatter. The ability to work as normal headphones once the battery is dead, which is a nice bonus. The case is nice as well, which has pockets for the (enclosed) 2-prong airplane jack adapter, and even a pocket for an iPod. I really did like these headphones, too bad they did not last.
