2.4 Ghz Wireless Headphone


So if you are in the market for new headphones, let me make one thing clear: do your research.

I didn't, and I paid a $40 cost for it. The culprit, COBY wireless headphones. They are everything that is wrong with headphones, and wireless technology today. The company did zero QA on the thing, and there is little excuse for putting out such a terrible product. Unfortunately, there isn't much protection for me in hoping I can take them back.

What's wrong with them you might ask. Well let me iterate:

1) batteries come not charged. Minor deductions as there is some slight validation to that.
2) Sits a bit too loose on head.

Now onto the important bits:

3) Low quality sound. Like listening to AM radio out in the boonies
4) Headset base station gives lousy indication of whether headphones are charged
5) Base power button is untactile and looks like it'd easily break
6) Headphone volume control makes loud clicking sound (yay for tactile) that deafens your ear when you press it while it's on your ear (oh... that's bad)
7) The channel button that lets you change your receiver's channel SHOULD NOT be there, it should happen so that people get clear reception period with minimal interference. However, they do have it, it SHOULD NOT make large static hiss sound when changing
8) When you first turn them on after a nice full charge. You have to fiddle with it just to get it to stop crackling. Once you do, sound comes in LOUD. Not clear, but REALLY LOUD. LIKE SOMEONE TYPING IN ALL CAPITAL.

I just feel sorry for any person who ends/ended up in the same position that I have from being screwed over by the people.
