Editorial Review:
PRODUCT FEATURES:Folding neckband for easy carryWheel key for FWD/BWDStylish and comfortable designLG's HBS-200 Bluetooth Stereo Headset offers an affordable way to stream music wirelessly from a cell phone embedded with the Bluetooth stereo music streaming profile. It also serves double duty as a communication headset, allowing you to take calls without having to take the headphones off. Stylishly and ergonomically designed with an around-the-neck profile, it conveniently folds for easy storage.
All play controls are conveniently located on the right earpiece.
The HBS-200 has a sturdy, flexible rubber band that connects the two 2-inch earpieces, and it can be stretched or minimized for just the right size. All controls reside on the right earpiece, and they include a play/pause/stop button in the middle, volume controls on top, and a control on the outside border of the earpiece that allows you to shuttle between songs.The center of the headset also includes a silver power/talk button (with a phone icon), which you can use to answer incoming calls. You can also access the headset's voice-activated dialing and last-number redial features by pressing the power/talk button first. You can also mute a call by pressing the volume down button. Pairing the HBS-200 headset is a breeze, and a status indicator on the headset will blink blue every 3 seconds once it's connected.
Unfolded, the HBS-200 offers a comfortable around-the-neck profile.
The HBS-200 provides up to 10 hours of talk time, 8 hours of continuous music playback, and 250 hours of standby time. A status indicator on the headset will blink red when the battery is running low, prompting you to plug in the included charger. The headset fully charges in approximately 3 hours.Note: Your cell phone must be embedded with the Bluetooth A2DP stereo music streaming profile in order to wirelessly listen to audio.

Agree with others - sounds great but very poor design.:
Like the other people, mine broke in about the same place near the ear flap, but it still works with the broken place taped w/ electrical tape. Not sure how that happened, but I am sure it wasn't due to my abuse, as the only time I use them is at the grocery store to drown out screaming babies. They are useless exercising (e.g., walking/running) because they won't stay positioned due to the behind the head band not being adustable and the streaming skips if you are moving quickly - even on asphalt road.

Good sound, breaks easy:
I really, really love these headphones. They are easy to put on, the are comfortable to wear, but they break very easily. I had them only 5 months before they self destructed. I'm VERY careful with my stuff. I never put them in a back pack or did anything that was rough with them. They were on my head or on my desk. Great headphones until they break:
I have owned 2 sets of these. I thought the first set broke because I didn't protect them well enough when carrying them, but then the second set broke and I was very careful not to transport them. It seems just frequent use leads to the breakage of the flexible plastic around the wire connecting the ear pieces. Worked well - but then they broke:
This would have been a 4-star review, except that they are now useles because the headband snapped.
