It has long been announced, tested Headset Motorola S9-HD still could not reach in Russia, no matter how many wishing to buy or break a lance in our forum, no matter how many letters to write. What happens to the supply of accessories - a separate issue, I think, after today's presentation of new accessories company will be to answer the question. Incidentally, readers of the site on the old tradition of learning about updates even before the announcement. That is to say here today will host an event where there will be H15, S7-HD, but you already seemed to be located in the first place the audience and clapped their hands. I am glad that you're just going in the morning to the site, journalists can find out more about this product. Although, I will not hide, S7 - something very controversial.
Design, construction
So, we have two headphones, connected by cable, the design is almost forgotten, the last time I saw this I really do not remember at what is not known a wide range of brands. The fact that this design means the headset rather exotic way to wear: There are two bows, they should just fill the ears and enjoy the sound. The first time I tried headphones of this type, ten years ago and then Zaretsky district to deal with such forms. Does not fit your ears, headphones ottopyrivayutsya, the sound goes out, but not where it is necessary. In general, tell you more about this in another head office, but here let's turn our attention to the design. He is good with all the typical Motorola chips - perforated metal plates covered with a velvety material control ring, it is extremely tight assembly without cracks and defects. Sturdy and reliable thing, which does not break down, falling from your luxuriant head. Headset weighs just less than forty grams, it is fairly easy, not too big, strong cup of narrow, fits in any pocket. So far I've only seen a sample of gray, I thought, may appear and white version. On perforated lining in red logo ROKR, logo mark is on the ledge where the fixed shackle. Cable is quite thick, not a toy, its confusing problematic.
Way of wearing, comfort
Rather, the "inconvenience". Yes, although the bow here, and can be bent at its discretion, somehow, anyway I personally wear these headphones are uncomfortable.Naturally, for you it may be the best thing in the world, but before buying, I strongly recommend to measure them in the store yourself, shake your head and check to see whether the flies. I fly. In addition, it is impossible to squeeze them tightly to his ears, lest they bulging outward. This is a huge shortage of this product, I do not know what developers think. Make a headset with a quality sound and themselves put under mine - all of this money is lost due to non-traditional ways of wearing. I very much want to believe that in the line will appear normal in-ear headphones with the main unit, and shaped as letters to HD were also present in the title.
Management
Remember such a great headset from Motorola, in the name of which was attended shaped as letters DJ? So, it was there was a very original way to control: on each plate was a rotating circle, promatyvaya it could carry out any action. Experience is not forgotten, and it was good. On each plate S7 also has on such a circle on the right cup, he is responsible for the rewind on the left - for adjusting the sound. In addition, the front portion of the right cup of a button Play / pause, on the left - the multifunction button. For turning on and off traditionally responsible for headsets Motorola slider, when you turn playing the melody firm.
What to say about management? It is very convenient to work, but only jump with a melody on the melody, rewinding a track does not work, tested with the Motorola ZN5, SonyEricsson W902, and even with a laptop the same pattern. It is possible that this is due to the software of my sample, yet it can not be entirely commercial.
Food
Claimed battery life is eight hours of talktime or music listening, in the standby mode the headset is working about six to seven days. Naturally, I was more interested in playing time, so I fully charged the S7-HD (for charging takes two and a half hours somewhere), remove the volume on full and put it on shuffle player in the Motorola ZN5. As a result, the results were as follows: seven hours fifteen minutes, the headset required to install the charger. Calls, respectively, were not taken, so in mixed mode can be less. In any case, rather average, not bad, and not too good to record this parameter to a definite plus.
Musical ability
About what is HD, what it eats and what it means, I wrote the review of the S9-HD (), I will not repeat. The sound is good, especially if the cup his hands pressed. But not as good as in the S9-HD, and all because that is used is such a type of headphones and a way of wearing. Simply does not reach the music is lost in the middle.Another thing is that when compared with models of the same type of other companies (they are few, but they are), the sound here is better, cleaner, detail is good, deep voice. All, all the port is capable of wearing. It would be better done push-model, and then cooperate with a great company not gone to waste.
Voice quality
I put the evaluation of four and a minus, the microphone is far from the mouth, the parties complained of low volume, it is necessary to raise your voice. Tune in your headset is transmitted, the effective range of six meters in the apartment. Basic functions are working normally, this last number redial, and a set of voice, and so on. Profile is used Bluetooth 2.1 with EDR, reliable connection even in the befouled air.
Conclusions
Alas, the S7-HD I did not like. It is uncomfortable to wear, does not work too long, the sound quality is lost because of the type using earphones. It is not as good as the S9-HD. The ideal management, excellent design and build, if your ear, it fits, it will be a good buy. So in my opinion is not worth paying special attention pomerte first and then decide how I was right or wrong. Personally I'll wait for in-ear headphones in a series of HD. Should they appear some day. The cost will be about three thousand rubles (approximately), while the appearance in Russia is still unknown.
