Belkin SoundForm Adapt Wireless Headset

Seamless wireless connectivity, all-day battery, clear call quality, multipoint pairing, noise cancellation, and captivating sound with these Bluetooth headphones. Review: Great for the price. - Got these and have worn them for around an hour so far (use headsets for around 7 hours a day for work) initially got these so I can be mobile whilst in meetings and so I don’t have a long cable stretching over my desk. Sound quality seems is good, this was never a concern as we issue this brand through work for special circumstance. Ear cushions feel a little stiff and was annoying for the first 5-10 mins but settled in ok, may need to purchase softer ear cushions. Connected within a matter of seconds via Bluetooth on laptop with a name that’s easily recognisable. Headset in general seems pretty sturdy compared to other models I have tried. The stubby mic does have flexibility and can be flicked up to mute. Functions as expected All in all a great headset for the price I paid. Review: Not even close to worth the near £40 price bracket - TLDR: If you're looking for a gaming headset, entry level Logitech, HyperX, Turtlebeach and even the OEM's like Corsair aren't that far off this price bracket. If you want this for music, RUN FOR THE HILLS! Sony have a Bluetooth headphone cheaper which won't have the same battery life but can do sound beyond a flat, distorted, watery mess begging to be put out it's misery. If you want this for VOIP calls, even Belkin have far cheaper VOIP headsets that will do the job far better. So full disclosure I bought this as a B-Grade on discount so it was just under £11 with no box and no cables, not the £38 normal price. It's in good condition and functions so no problem there. It is however way below expectations even for a cheap headset. It's light but that's because it's made from some really cheap plastics that feel rigid and inflexible so it'll probably break really easily if twisted even just a little. I'm guessing there's not really much to the inside of them either which would explain the watery sound as it's probably just the speakers sitting in their plastic housing with nothing to stop the sound bouncing back off the hard plastic. Their description of "no distortion" is pushing the definition of that. If you even try to compensate for the hilariously flat, tinny sound with an eq in your player or device it goes into distortion hell because the cheap drivers just don't have the range to cope. On Poweramp for android I have an EQ set that brings it up to just bad instead of unbearable but now I can't put the volume above 60% or it loses the plot. If I had to guess considering it trys to take the EQ adjustment they gave it a DAC that can do it but the drivers are so cheap and restricted they can't cope. Did Belkin repurpose drivers intended for something else like a cheap VOIP headset and just shove them in this thing by any chance? As other reviews have said the microphone is very quiet. The mic has to be right in front of your mouth to stand a chance but the boom is so short, it's impossible to do without taking the headset off. What's even more impressive is even though the mic is very quiet, it's also hilariously easy to get it to peak out. One positive though, the earcup and headband padding isn't horrible and neither is the tension on the headband so they are comfortable to wear. I haven't had them long enough to check battery but other reviews say it's good. Thing is the excellent battery life is probably more to do with the lack luster drivers not using much power to do the bad job they do. Summary: If I'd paid full price on theses they would be going straight back. I'm genuinely impressed at how bad these things are for the price bracket Belkin is aiming for. Down side is there are people that paid full price and oh boy did they get the short end.
