When I purchase a wireless headphone that is designed to talk on the phone, I honestly expect that the headphones work both listening and talking without a cable.<\/p>\n
Not so, the Beats Solo 2 Wireless headphones. At their price point, I really expect that, and I expect noise blanking.<\/p>\n
The good news, is that I didn't purchase them, they came free with my new MacBook. Of course, having an audio cable was a clue that the microphone wasn't wireless.<\/p>\n
Twice I've tried to use them on a call with students and couldn't figure out why they didn't work. I finally tried to record a movie today, was getting no audio, looked at the manual and still stubbornly thought they would work. I called support (Apple, no less, answered, they did buy them out). <\/p>\n
The tech and I had a good laugh, agreeing they really should be completely Wireless. They are at the very least pretty. and I don't really need them to be completely wireless for use with the MacBook.<\/p>\n
And yes, if I had paid money for them, they'd have gone back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
