Review on Sol Republic Relays Sport Water Resistant Wireless Bluetooth Headphones, Mint - Unleashing Your Music with Style and Durability by Ryan Bennett

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Mixed feelings about these

I've had two of these. I bought several of these for friends. Anyway, I just bought the last few good ones for my friends because they don't all complain about theirs, and anyway I'm on my second crappy pair. My first pair had a few issues that turned out to be common. The power button stopped working, they turned on and off without asking, and they almost reached the point of becoming unusable about 30 days after purchase. I work 6 days a week so they did a decent job during that time. The sound quality is above average for a device of this size and comparable to the Apple headphones that come with the iPhone. Noise cancellation isn't exactly what they do, but they can definitely quote sounds from the environment. I've had my second pair for about a week and the compartment that houses the controls had already come loose when I turned off the power while charging. I feel like this is the end of the sweat/water resistance they offer. It hasn't stopped working yet, but I'm concerned and will probably contact the seller soon.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
