When I started dating with headsets Southwing, I had a certain foreboding. Say, the pictures and specifications will never do is to conclusions about a product, you need to hold it in your hands, twist, turn and so on. In general, based on pictures and specifications, a premonition it was not the best. Well, another little-known producer. Usually, when I was testing a similar mass range, he ultimately does not use it, just work. Nevertheless, if the headset is now searching for himself, the line would include the selection and Southwing SH-505, it looked to me - sits perfectly on the ear, the sound quality is good, look at an unusual measure. If I was searching for the headset quite inexpensive, it would look on SH-105, on its own it is very good.
Design, construction
As soon as you unpack the box, I immediately feel that the 105-th extremely easy to handle, the front panel of the velvety plastic, painted at the bottom of it, dragged it into his pockets, along with all sorts of piercing-edged objects, nothing happened. Appearance is simple, these headsets are all manufacturers, is nothing new in this company has not introduced, well, okay, for nine hundred rubles expect frills at least silly. But it is well built, sturdy, no creaks or backlash. Everything in its place, a connector for charging from behind the microphone in front, no special decoration items here. Simply and tastefully. The choice can take a black or silver-SH-105, I have a black color. Weight headset with bow - little more than ten grams.
Dimensions are such that women are beginning to fear it in advance, invited several friends to try on the girls, they died, but immediately pointed out the size. I do not know, for me, so quite a miniature, perhaps, the length of confused? In general, the product is more likely male than female.
Way of wearing, comfort
Well, what can I say, comfortable ear, the headset looks to be, not the other side of the cheek. Wore the device daily for about an hour, no problems whatsoever. It is a pity that there is no attachment for the strap, drivers, and forgetful of the Lord would appreciate his presence on the merits. Sports SH-105 may well come up, during sudden movements is not abating. Accordingly, without the bow does not wear a headset, except that the duct tape to fasten to the skull.
Management
Everything is standard, there are multifunction button, which is responsible for turning on and off, over and hang up the call and so on. Volume keys placed on the front panel, this is unusual.The buttons are big enough, nothing special about them is impossible to say, everything is fine. The indicator light is also on the front panel, and here it is not too good, whether it was reflected well in the night in the dark alleys better with SH-105 is not pacing. Can bullies away.
Hours
Then a surprise: the claimed running time is ten hours in active mode, passive SH-105 should hold about one hundred fifty hours. Charging time is about two hours, use the connector microUSB, find a cable in the sale is difficult, so losing is not recommended. In practice, while the slightly smaller, but still safe to rely on the work within two or three days, if your timer is equal to two hours of conversation. If, however, to protect the battery, turn off at night, then you can count on more time - four days.
Alas, the car charger with just such a connector is something I can not remember. Although in nature there are many things that I have not seen.
Communication with the phone, sound quality
Profile is used with Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR, it is already becoming a tradition, even for low cost products. And it's good for us consumers - affects the operation time, and speed of communication, its reliability. The headset was tested with SonyEricsson W902, quick coupling, then tear Thing from the phone you could just turn off, is caught in time, failures of communication or something like that happened. Communication quality is average, it is good, but not always. There are moments when there seemed to be some background noise. But overall, very well. In noisy environments can talk if you cover the microphone with your hand, but generally better to use the phone, if there is construction. Or, equip yourself with something with a powerful noise reduction system.
Basic functions are working properly, this last number redial, activate voice dialing, switching between the lines. I note that the melody is not transferred to the headset, but this feature phones SonyEricsson. Operating range is about five meters.
Conclusions
Nothing extraordinary, all at the proper level, and without enthusiasm. Time work is good, design is quite a personal, convenient management (except for the indicator, it is too bright), voice quality is normal. Cost will be about nine hundred rubles, this is a normal price for a headset, in fact, pay for time and the profile of Bluetooth. I say this because if the profile was old, and while working less, then six more rubles to ask would be impossible. Inquisitive reader tells me: "Coulda woulda, but grew mushrooms in his mouth ..." - and so on. And I answer that the market is not so much "byudzhetok, which can withstand the autonomous navigation for almost ten hours. And therefore safely recommend SH-105 to purchase.
