Review on Rotibox Bluetooth Headphone Hat Attachment for Snowboarders - Hands-Free & Stylish Boys' Accessory by Mike Walters

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I really like it, but there are a few small annoyances.

As some other users have reported, this is a bit tight on my head. However, it still fits and either it stretches to fit or I'm getting more used to it being tight because it feels quite comfortable now. One thing I didn't realize before buying it is that there is a lining inside the hat. It's very pleasant and comfortable. What bothers me the most is the constantly flashing blue light (while it's on), which is particularly annoying at night, and how the controls work. There are three buttons. Two volume controls and track selection forward or backward. Short press to change track, long press to change volume. The third button controls play/pause, redial, and power. Instead of a redial, I'd rather have something that calls Siri on my phone. This will not work with this hat (some Bluetooth devices can do this). The sound quality isn't fantastic, but it's certainly not terrible. The music is sharp and crisp but feels a bit airy or maybe shrill. However, this is not enough to complain about. These are still the most comfortable headphones I've ever owned. One problem is the microphone. It exists and it works. However, according to my wife, it sounds like I'm on a hands-free phone call. I've noticed that she doesn't respond to anything I say unless I speak louder. If I activate Siri on my phone (it still uses the microphone in the hat), Siri will have a very difficult time understanding my words. when i don't speak It's a bit annoying. It would be great if the microphone worked better.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • No power
