Frankly, to get their hands on (Crazed, two pieces) HPM-85 I tried for a long time, since last summer, when the section of accessories was not in sight. Fiction, but in the representation they "just had, but disappeared," on sale "order, will soon bring." As a result, companies take modelka have failed, had to take away our chief editor, who bought the headphones in their blood in gadzhetaddiktivnom fit. You should have seen his pitiful eyes as I carefully put them in a bag and walking backwards, out of office!
So, let's see what we're dealing with. Mobile phone manufacturers started to complain about the overhead headphones a couple of years ago, when there was a Motorola ROKR E2, the company recommended to use with him is such headphones, as I recall, recommend the products of Sennheiser. Roughly the same thing happened when there was a Nokia N91, Nokia in chain stores is still possible to meet overhead headphones mentioned already audioproizvoditelya, recently appeared in droves, and their own models, this HS-81, HS-62. Samsung has no such models, they may appear in the near future. Well, the Sony Ericsson in the line has two models, which we have today and we'll talk. Just to start let's look at why mobile phone manufacturers have in the line of accessories-ear headphones. So:
Most consumers in the form of large ears of any form of overhead associated with a kind of "super quality" sound at the source, indirectly, it may indicate that the phone company's sound so well that it may "bleed" them.
There is a certain category of buyers who like to just such a form, not only because of sound quality, but also because of some kind of "advancement", a peculiar effect in the eyes of others (in what I'm tough, large ears go).
Finally, in our country long winter overhead headphones can warm the ears, so in winter, in theory, the number of units sold should be increased (just kidding).
HPM-85
Let's start with what I personally do not much like. Why do not you like? Let me explain. What do you think, where did this model? Naturally, in a line of headphones Sony. What is this model? Simple search shows us the two are similar in design model is Sony MDR-V250V and Sony MDR-V300, retail price on them about 1100 - 1300 rubles. Features of both models are virtually identical:
Frequency, Hz - 18 - 22000
Impedance, Ohm - 24
Sensitivity dB - 98
Rated power, MW - 500
Diameter of membrane, mm - 30
As you can see, nothing special, but digging in "YandeksMarkete, I stumbled on this here comments on the MDR-V300:« The ears are cool. Basses - 9 + / 10, the tip - 9 / 10, volume - 10/10, clarity - 9 / 10. Head is not too tight and did not subside. Lungs. Do not look great. Much better senhayzerov HD 212 PRO and its derivatives (mb comparable to HD 205). Features (on paper), these sleepers lose Panas RP-DJ100, but when you listen to them together ... Heaven and earth! At Panasonic - no bass, no volume compared to the Sony does not feel, and clarity - too. Of the minuses - imitation leather, used in decoration, a little sweat makes your ears. General - Sony decides ", - wrote these things user TT. Can we trust the user to TT? It's all very contradictory - to listen to what I listen to that heard before ... You may ask questions a lot and did not come to a conclusion, whether rightly admires the man, or just on a wave of joy from buying decided so that's quite inexpensive to evaluate modelka.
I think that the HPM-85 differs from its "parent" is only a silver suit, an amended logo and cable length, shortened it to connect to the connector HPM-82. About her I will not spread, it's all said. The only thing in my head spinning words known to every Russian man, when I realized how the rewinding a song. So, we press and hold fast, let go, rewind gone. Stop it should be pressing the Play. Brad? At least this is true for Sony Ericsson W880i. As you wish, without taking the phone out of his pocket, to understand where there and what to rewind? Well, okay, not the essence.
Let's see more detail on the 85-th model. Plastics and coating are inexpensive, silver paint, is likely to fly off from contact with all sorts of things in your bag. In general, the headphones - this is a continuous squeak, chatter and gnashing of teeth. You see how they stack up? They fold up and not become smaller, there are no attachments for this cup just slightly hidden inside the rim well, and yet they can turn it. The set has no least rag bag for carrying. The bag cable 85th constantly strives to get caught on something, and when extracting the light of day this miracle with him retrieve phone numbers and other sets, diaries and much more. Leatherette on the cups actually has ears to rapid sweat in the summer at all the trouble.And I'm on the street headphones are not worn, but the house enjoyed by his heart's content with what only can and can not. Well, for instance, connected the adapter and playing games, listening to music and watching movies with the notebook. Played in the PSP. Then, finally, reached his hands up and phones. The tests were carried out with SE P990i and SE W880i, as shown, with the first sound is totally flat, uninteresting, an impression that the upper and lower classes to do, something mean, it is extremely unattractive. On the 880th sound more interesting, there are bass. However, to put it more concretely: I listened to the track Block Rockin `Beats unforgettable group The Chemical Brothers in mp3 with a bitrate of 192 Kbps. On the phone was switched off all uluchshayzery, and without them well. What can I say? This song still touches me, she's very aggressive, listening to it, or want to go take a break and drin BMW X5 (with airbrushing) neighbor below who loves to listen to music at night, or to add, finally, compare headsets with DSP. Also, she is good at listening when the unrealistic sport and work assignments. In general, I assure you, I have changed my opinion on the HPM-85 since the moment to listen to it with a laptop, but with the 880th, I just quietly pribaldel. Yes, the bass with no sling, the tops are not transparent, some things worked out moderately, there is no reserve volume, but that would be with such gusto, and for eighteen hundred at retail? And, besides, is not connected with the CD-player and a phone? I want to say "I do not believe, but it is so. Headphones HPM-85 - homely modelka not so hot with some build quality kozhzamom in cups, but every penny embedded it fulfills one hundred percent. Note also the point that I mentioned in the "Gizmo of the Month" - included a panel HPM-82, which in itself is worth about one thousand four hundred rubles in retail, better buy it, along with the 85th model will not regret it.
HPM-83
This little thing has been announced recently in conjunction with all sorts of important phone company and at first also makes me absolutely no emotion. Did not cause, not cause, and then I unconsciously first went to meet in-ear headphones. But let's start from the beginning, or rather with the design. Identify the model can not, then it pass the full refining the model in a series of Behind the Neck, whether created from scratch with a copy of specially designed features - guess I will not. The impressions I can say one thing - frequency response, compared to HPM-85, narrower, in volume and power, they also "lower". But in terms of accuracy ... In terms of accuracy, they are ahead of 85-th model, at the moment, where the latter impose sweeping strokes of bassists, the 83rd running like a sewing machine, stitch by stitch beating in my ears an interesting picture. The basic test "Block Rockin Beats" and W880i, I was pleased, not so loud and boldly, but plump and juicy. Thus here, that not noticing, and I finished the description of audio performance, lowering design. But in vain.
This headset with the type of attachment "for the neck," I'm not such zhaluyu, because I have an innate intolerance. Bow out here is not particularly flexible black plastic, the material is nice, it looks safe. The most interesting thing is waiting for us when looking at the cups, even in the representation to convince me that this is that neither is "luminescence", aluminum, metal heaven, methyl heaven. Naturally, I did not believe it until personally do not dig deeper cup attached to the cheek, take a good sniff and bitten. Indeed, some metal with invoice processing, rough to the touch. Name of the company holds some strange way, otskresti it will be pretty hard. Metal fills only the central part of the headphones, rims of plastic with a lustrous finish. Lined with foam rubber, it looks fairly reliably. The only change it will be problematic. In general, assembly, material and coating are such that it appears seamless, a good and safe thing. Headphones sitting on plump ears, nestle good (in the surrounding metro still hear everything), it is true, ears start to hurt stably hour socks, stands a little to change the situation, and everything passes. As I said earlier, this is the first for me-ear headphones, which would not be ashamed to get out into the street, they are not very noticeable and nice looking.
Headphones HPM-83 will appear in retail in the autumn, the approximate cost - 1700 rubles. Included will be only them, to advise, take them or not, it's hard. On the other hand, simply advise you to listen to yourself I can not because they are packed in blister, which is unlikely to be open before you buy. Well, my verdict is this: if you are looking for good sound quality, not afraid to be heard, if you need a headset for running or the gym with the phone, it will be a good option. Most likely, the kit does put an extension cable (where it is approximately 20 cm), so that you can connect the 83rd, not only to the phone, but also to any other technique.
In general, the conclusion is interesting enough: for the purchase of preferred looks HPM-85 by remote control kit. "Junior" model has a good design and good sound quality, but for 1700 rubles, you only get headphones ... But a 3.5 mm jack on the headset SonyEricsson You can connect any model of those that are on the market. Think about it.
