My comparison is this headset to a Motorola S9-HD
Cons:
The headset takes too much adjusting to put on. It is fine, if you leave it on for a long period of time, but I take my headset on and off alot. The volume button sits to close to the ear, making it not quickly adjustable for volume and track selection. Bass boost sucks. The open mic concept, it works well, however I find people are confused or annoyed by the fact I have the headsets on when speaking with them. So being polite, I take the headset off which leads back to issue #1. The reception is no better or worse than the S9-HD, both have issues if your device is on a belt clip holster or rear pocket. I like the sound quality of the S9-HD better, the Backbeats have a "tinny" sound, where the S9-HD has more deep sound.
