At first glance, the packaging unit and the headset itself is something I remembered. Something about the same lot. Here, he remembered - Jawbone! Here is this great headset and remembered. Perhaps this is because of the size, and not just. In any case, SH505 - headset is already quite old, sold since 2007-the year, but it is described as a sale it is found, and at an attractive price for a headset.
Design, construction
The headset is made as if the two asymmetrical halves, in photographs it looks not so hot as to be honest, but in life seems very different, interesting design. It is quite large in size, and the bow is used here rather big, so it's typically masculine product. Something reminded me design stereo from Sony, they are also large in size, but at the same time, quite elegant. Strange, but for the SH-505 is quite rightly, on the ear, it also looks interesting. Finished with a velvety plastic casing, the assembly is tight connector, charging plug is covered, all done by the mind. Unusual, but it is curious, especially if bored bored look the other set, here a different view. Connector for charging is behind the microphone - in front, the speaker is covered with mesh trim, headset weighs approximately thirteen grams.
Way of wearing, comfort
As can be seen near the bow has a special plastic pin, which rotates around its axis. At this same pin can be worn either with a rope attachment loop for attaching to your phone, or shackle. I put on my headband and put on his headset in his ear, and realized that quite a while not wearing anything more convenient. As you say, it was already tested for hundreds of typefaces, in recent years manufacturers often try to use thin, weightless bow. That's good, because the ear, they are not felt. But! Thick, nice bow SH505 securely locked device exactly as it should, without causing discomfort, discomfort, something that reminded me a sense of sneakers, which he put on after the slippers. It mobilizes, adjusts to work. Very tight fit, very comfortable headset to anyone who is thinking about ergonomics, highly recommend.
Management
Here is the multifunction button, which is responsible for switching on / off the headset, answer and hang up calls, switching between lines and so on. Password custom here, not "0000" and "1111", have this feature in mind, not to break the anger innocent product. Granted, it is strange to watch such a departure from tradition. It is interesting to use touch controls, if during the conversation, you'll touch the ends, then the volume will either increase or decrease (the upper end, respectively, increases it). Not much like the sensors out there, here they are quite adequately operate, so that problems with volume no. Controls are comfortable, easy to adapt himself to it. The indicator light is small in size, is not particularly intrusive.
Hours
The manufacturer claims ten hours of talk time, standby time the headset can work three hundred hours. Connector for charging - a variation microUSB, better cable is not lose. You can charge the headset and using a computer cable in the kit is. The hours of work in practice, I will say this: ten hours - hardly an achievable figure, but at eight o'clock you can count on. Accordingly, a charge will last for several days, the charging time is two hours from the mains or four of the USB.
Features
There is a SH-505 and certain features, in addition to touch. For example, you can download a special program (called Wingman) with the corporate site, plug the headset in the supplied to the computer and perform some action, such as update the firmware programmed number for the function Push4, change the melody. I recall that Push4 saves in memory a favorite number, and provides quick access to it. The program is easy to configure, nothing more, in my opinion, nothing more and is not necessary. For example, for me, so the most important is generally able to update the firmware sets at home, a few manufacturers offer such an opportunity. So for a plus.
Connection with the phone, sound quality
The headset was tested with Apple iPhone, pairing took place at the time, incidentally, is here used outdated profile Bluetooth 1.2, however, all rather quickly, without delays or disruptions.Considered product is equipped with DSP, noise reduction system works quite efficiently until the next noise is not too large. For example, if a tape recorder playing quietly in the car, then everything is fine, you can hear well, and you heard well. Once you open the window, immediately the situation changes, you ask again, although if the DSP was not, the problems would be greater. I liked the sound quality - that such an outcome. All the basic functions such as last number redial, voice activation mode, switching between the lines are working correctly, there are no issues.
Conclusions
Recommended price for SH-505 - half thousand rubles. With that, the headset has a nice design, materials, good voice quality and successful ergonomics and comfort of wearing a bow above all praise, did not recall such a convenient things. But I can not say that the design on the fan, can not please everyone. But the price is very good for a headset you can ask for and more, then there is the possibility to update the firmware, and Push4, this is a nice addition. And yet I can not mention a nice package, the opportunity to wear the headset with your phone, tying her belt. In general, I recommend a purchase, she deserves it. Particularly advise motorists.
