Bose® Mobile On-Ear Headset - Black (41314) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I like Bose products and have several.Yes, true audiophiles sneer and yes, the brand is overhyped but they work for me!The sound quality is as good as I can hear and the fit and finish is above most other products.I have returned several competitors' products.

But they left out a critical feature.The iPhone headset has inline mic and a little button built into the "bulge" where the mic is.This button allows you take an incoming call or to pause your music.The Bose people left the button out -- the music ramps down when you dial a call but, this is the key thing, you have to take the iPhone out of your pocket to answer a call or to pause the music.What were they thinking?

So if you're cutting the grass and taking advantage of the noise cancelling feature and your wife tries to speak you have to: (1) pull the phone from your pocket or case, (2) swipe your finger to activate the screen, (3) switch to iTunes and your song, (4)hit the pause screen button.Is your wife more patient than mine?

Shure makes a replacement cable (just like Bose) that includes a button.It's a little bigger and clunkier than Apple's barely noticeable squeeze-the-bulge button, but hey, it's there.Bose does not include a button on their replacement cable either.

This is what happens when you don't have good user trials.A major mistake on an otherwise fine product.I cannot recommend this product to anyone who has ever been interrupted or received a call while listening to music.Which is pretty much everybody.Wait for the next generation...
