One year ago, Plantronics stunned us with BackBeat GO 2, a pair of Bluetooth wireless earphones sold for a remarkable $80 entry price. This year, it's offering a new model called BackBeat Fit ($130), which despite a $50 premium actually is less appealing ...
For $129.99, you're getting some great earbuds and an arm band for fitness use. If you were to buy these types of items separately, it would likely cost about as much (if not more), so consider that when you are looking to buy these. The arm band is comfo...

Good sound; comfortable fit; good wearing; reasonable Bluetooth connection
Limited bass; limited noise isolation
Comfortable, light, decent sounding, practical and a reasonably solid connection (once you work out which pocket to put it in), the Plantronics BackBeat FIT Bluetooth earphones are a good fit for active people.Tags Bluetooth headphonesearphonesPlantronics...
Battery Life, Tangle-free cord, Good volume, Waterproof
Early comfort, No noise cancelling
I love the fact that these headphones are connected by the regular cable that relentlessly tangles and creates a job before the job of listening to music or podcasts. They're designers were clearly very focused at delivering a functional set of headphones...
