Bang & Olufsen EarSet 3 Stereo Headset with Built-In Microphone (iPhone Compatible) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have to say, I simultaneously expected more and less from B&O here. I expected a better quality (build & design) and feel, and worse sound. In actuality, the Earset 3 sounds pretty good. They're very easy to drive, and I can get ample volume directly from my iPhone without a headphone amp. Bass is lacking, even for a headset of this size. I'm not great with flowery audiophile-talk, but overall, I'm pleasantly surprised by the sound quality. However, it's a bit fiddly to get the best-possible fit (which isn't necessarily great) when you put them on. I believe it's the poor'ish fit that is responsible for the lacking bass. They also have no isolation whatsoever, which is great if you want to hear everything going on around you, but not so great on an airplane or train. The mic works quite well, but I did experience a couple of glitchy-sounding-noises over the course of a 1.5hr call. The fit and finish, however, is nothing spectacular at all. The cord is extremely thin, and inspires no confidence whatsoever. Indeed, there are many reports of people with cord issues, although so far B&O seems to be taking care of it when it pops up. Holding the Earset isn't particularly impressive, nor does it look all that cool on your head.

Overall, the Earset 3 is pretty good, but I'm not satisfied considering the price-tag. A lower pricetag would mitigate some of my complaints, but at $200 MSRP, the issues in wearing them and in fit & finish aren't particularly acceptable.
