Comments about veho VEP-005-BTGUM Gumball 3000 Special Edition Bluetooth Wireless Headphones:
Bluetooth functionality is very good and easy to set up. Sound quality is very good for the price. They look nice, but the design is functionally terrible.
Two minor fit issues I have may not be a problem for most people; the head band is a little bit short, it fits me but barely. They would not fit me if my head was a little bigger or if I'm wearing a hat. This should not be a problem for most people, but if your hat size is LG or XL, you might want to try them on before buying. Also the ear pads do not rotate enough, so they don't sit right on my ears and put too much pressure on them. My ears hurt after an hour or two of constant wear. My ears stick out, so if your ears are flat and don't stick out, this would probably not be an issue.
My biggest problem with the design is that they put touch sensitive volume, and skip buttons on a ring around the play/pause button on the right ear. Since you can't see your own ear you have to feel around for the button to pause, play and answer calls, but since this button is surrounded by touch sensitive buttons you always end up skipping forward or back or adjust the volume every time you want to pause or answer a call. Also the touch sensitive buttons are in a position that you touch them when you need to adjust the position or putting the headphones on and off your head. Touch sensitive buttons on controls you can't see is so beyond stupid. It makes me want to throw them out the window. This problem could have easily been avoided by putting the play/pause/answer button on the opposite ear from the volume and skip buttons or by making the buttons not touch sensitive.

Comments about veho VEP-005-BTGUM Gumball 3000 Special Edition Bluetooth Wireless Headphones:
These inexpensive headphones (49.95 after instant rebate) work great! The set-up is a snap. An i-Pod Touch, a HTC 4g MyTouch, and a newer HP laptop all connected first time lickity split! Inside doing nominal chores, these phones performed admirably. Outside doing more bending and stooping etc, they blinked out regularly. Great sound for $. Volume is limited. However, inside they were loud enough for me.

Comments about veho VEP-005-BTGUM Gumball 3000 Special Edition Bluetooth Wireless Headphones:
I wanted to use wireless headphones so I could listen to interviews while walking in my office. Long story short, these headphones were not right. Although compact and lightweight, the audio quality is too poor and too low for anything other than the iPod really

Comments about veho VEP-005-BTGUM Gumball 3000 Special Edition Bluetooth Wireless Headphones:
I bought these because I like to walk around while listening to interview footage. Unfortunatly, the headphones have a realativly low volume so that isn't going to work. I tried listening to itunes as well, and found the quality to be decent, but still not there. If you're looking for a bargain or something to use with an ipod, it's a good deal. If you're a pro however, I'd stick with some Sennheisers
