Swage by Rokit Boost - Bluetooth Headphones - Built in Microphone Sound - Perfect Fit Sleek Design - Silver Color

Pro: The sound quality (paired to my MacBook Pro and listening mostly to Pandora) is excellent. At first I was missing some bass response, but either the bass driver kicked in later or it was just the song I happened to be listening to at the time.Pro: Really easy to pair. Hold the button down for six seconds, then search on the Mac; the headphones were found immediately. On subsequent power-up, they re-pair right away.Con: Battery life. These are advertised as having "up to 8 hours" of life for listening to music. I don't use the microphone/talk feature at all. Well, I suppose five and a half is "up to eight", but it's certainly less than I was expecting and hoping for.I'll keep them, because the sound quality is really very good and I can usually manage to sneak a few minutes on charge here and there, but I am definitely disappointed by the less-than-advertised battery life.

UPDATE 7.13.2016 - Rokit Boost support sucks big time! The ear pads have basically disintegrated over time and use and I have been trying to get Rokit to respond to my Support Tickets (one on February 29 and another on March 11) that I have created on their website requesting new ear pads and I have yet to receive a response. TERRIBLE! JUST TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SUPPORT!I've been looking for a Bluetooth headphone to use when I lift weights at the gym and this baby works perfect for that. It's lightweight, fits snuggly so it doesn't fall off, is comfortable, and the sound quality is excellent. It doesn't have a ton of bass but that's ok for me as I listen to heavy metal when I lift. If you lift weights and are tired of earbud wires getting in your way, get these you wont regret it!

Awesome headphones and company all around. Highly recommend to anyone looking for blue tooth and mic headphones. The sound quality is awesome and the look and feel is sleek and comfy. Pairs easily with anything right out of the box. The company support is awesome as well. I had a minor issue and emailed Rokit Boost at 6 am and Joe over there emailed me back by 8:30 am the same morning. I received a new pair without hesitation in two days over a holiday break. I work from home and I use these everyday for conf calls and personal calls and obviously music. The quality is great and if you don't have blue tooth head phones, then you are not living. I paid more for these than they sell for now, and I would still pay the higher price.Thanks Joe and RB.

I've owned these Swage Rokit Boost headphones for over a year now and I've been using them 5 days per week for running and I LOVE them. Comfortable, sound great, always work. The battery lasts me for over a week, I don't know, I just charge them once per week.This is not a knock, but a tip...The buttons are large and pretty easy to feel, but I found it a little hard to differentiate between the song skip and pause buttons while running fast, so i put a big drop of hot-melt glue on the song skip button, and a thin line on the pause button. This makes it real easy to hit the correct button while running.

Bought a HALO2 in May 2012...loved it for the most part, but it mechanically wore out at the hinge so I needed a replacement.Was looking for an alternative with no hinging.Purchased the Swage based on user comments here.The sound was good.The fit was a pretty tight on my ears, but would probably stretch in time.Initial charging took a long time...several hours.Bluetooth connected fine, but would drop out with no notice (I use the headset with my cell in a home office, so distance is 3ft most of the time)Callers said microphone sound was muffled and volume very low.Returned it and will probably buy another Halo.

Maybe I missed this in the description, even watching YouTube reviews but expected the unit to be white. The one I got was silver/chrome.Bought both the LG HBS-730 and Swage Rokit Boost. Both are good, just depends on your needs & what ur use to. Both deserve 5* ratings but rated both 3* as your needs may be different than mine.Preferred & kept the LG 'cuz LG is lighter, option of using 1 or 2 earpieces + more comfortable to wear. Sound quality the same but my voice transmission is clearer on LG. Did not get the new LG 800 'cuz don't like the new placement of the control buttons on the side of the front neck band -- prefer them on the top portion like on the 700 & 730 models as easier to use when wearing a collared shirt or jacket.Details:- LG is lighter, less bulky around neck. Can let it hang around my neck during the day, even in business attire, without looking like a cyborg with a bluetooth always in my ear. With Swage hanging around my neck, I looked like a DJ taking a break. Didn't expect Swage to be so stiff & bulky but college kids always wanting to tune out the world might like it.- I like that with the LG I am able to only insert one earbud and still hear surrounding noise - great & safe way to use smartphone gps nav when riding a motorbike or having a conversation in the car without feeling like in an isolation chamber. Swage has to cover both ears. Plus even with a helmet on, when stopped without blasting wind noise, am able to say "Ok Google" and my phone responds to my nav instructions.- Can wear glasses, hat or helmet using the LG. Can't even wear a hat over Swage.- music sound quality from both are about equal- voice calls --> callers said my voice sounded much more natural on LG than on Swage -- that alone made me return the Swage.2nd BIGGEST DIFFERENCE: couldn't stand Swage foam pads, ears were always itchy even just the 10 minutes I tried it. Maybe after constant use the foam would soften up but still would have the cons noted above.My Phone: Samsung Galaxy S5NB: YOUR MILEAGE MAY VARY depending what ur use to & prefer:- I've been using Sony's in-ear buds on my iPod for years at the gym because they totally isolate outside distracting noise so I'm use to inserting ear buds & have no problem using the LG. And for laying on the sofa or working in the yard totally zoning out to music, the LG ear buds are just as isolating. The unit bouncing on my neck might not be as comfortable working out, but at the gym I still prefer my old iPod shuffle on my arm (it's lighter) and a short wired headset that never seems to get in the way. I don't take calls at the gym nor do I want a brick of a phone in my gym shorts getting smashed when I rest a weight on my thighs.- for voice conversations, I'm so use to using a single ear DESK headset (Plantronics), I don't see the reason for full headphone voice conversations anywhere, even in the car. I spend a lot of my day on the phone so people are always accidentally interrupting me: with one ear piece, I can for a second or two hear what they want yet point to my ear (a signal that my office knows means I'm on a call) and still hear what problem they need handled when I'm done with the call.- I also find that people who talk with dual earpieces tend to talk louder as they are not aware of how loud their voice is resonating in the room or car. A bonus is you work in a phone room. Annoying to anyone else in the car or walking with you.Finally, wearing headsets like Swage send a message to passing strangers, even family at home, that you're deliberately tuning out. Which is a bonus at the gym or jogging, at times you don't want to be interrupted. If it's an emergency, they'll wave their hand in front of your face to get your attention.The LG is more discrete, and wearing only one earpiece, you can still get decent music sound (albeit a bit more "background" sounding) and still interact, say "hi" to a passing stranger or hear an urgent sound in the distance. You never know what new friendships you may miss b/c your double ear headphones are telling every passerby to leave u alone.
