Review on Retevis Acoustic Earpiece Headset Kenwood by Tim Reimann

Revainrating 4 out of 5

This earphone worked better but not quite what I was hoping for

We bought Retevis radios for our church for our security team. I wanted to upgrade the speaker from the one that came with the radio because of the quality. These headphones worked better, but not quite what I was hoping for. Firstly, I'm not sure what I missed in the description, but when I first put the earbud on, I noticed that the mic is too short for the sleeve. (that's what I thought I would have ordered). It's a lapel mic, not a sleeve mic. Second, I was hoping the earbud would fit my ear snugly, but wasn't as happy as I thought it would be. It fits "well" but doesn't move much, and it rises and part of the channel is lost. I wear glasses, so if I hide them behind my glasses frames, they don't move as much. Third, the sound quality is excellent and I had no problems with the sound. Even with loud church singing I still hear without problems. I gave it 4 stars for the solid construction and sound quality, but I wish the mic cable was longer to reach the sleeve of the coat and better placed on the outside of the ear.

Pros
  • Solid finish
Cons
  • Damaged
