1SaleaDay Zonda Bluetooth headset review

[ztirffritz]

I purchased these earphones a few weeks ago and I've been using them for a few days now. I'm impressed. For $20 they were a great deal. I expected crappy construction but they're pretty stout and simple. The sound isn't anything to brag about, but it is stereo and it has a microphone that works reasonably well for phone calls. The description says that it doesn't have a mic, but the one I received does. The 1SaleADay RYF is over now, but I did find them on eBay from 1SaleADay's eBay store for the same price if anyone is interested:

I seem to have a headphone addiction - with only the slightest hesitation, I jumped right in on this even though I'm not sure I even want them

Thanks for posting. My youngest was jonesing for a pair of something like this.

I want to make clear that the description says that it doesn't work for phone calls, but mine does. If you go for these, you might get either. I just wanted to listen to the Penguins games without a cord attached to my head. The mic was a bonus.

the ebay description DOES say that it deals with phone calls - so it had better have a mic for those phone calls

I'm not sure what 'phone-talk capable means, but that sounds like they're implying it doesn't have a mic.

I got one from 1saleaday as well. The daughter is using it for her iPod Touch. It's very nice not to have this mass of cables hanging all over her that she can trip on or yank out.

For $20, I just pulled the trigger. I wouldn't miss the cords at all.
