This is my review of the Mpow Wolverine Bluetooth 4.1 Sports
Headphones. I will start of by saying these are my first Bluetooth headphones. Most
of my headphones are in the higher price range, but I needed to start some where
and these seemed to be a great starting point.
So first off the looks. this is what spikes your intrigue
right off the bat. Just like sex, us humans like to be visually pleased before
we go further.
The outer face of the headphones have a machined metal look
to them which appeals to my industrial side. The rest of the headphones are
covered in a soft rubber. The inline remote is covered in this soft rubber too.
This is a great feature when you are sweaty and need to turn the volume up or
down.
Next on the list is sound. This is what keep you entertained
after the initial looks wear off. For me these headphones are like Fran Drescher.
The best I can say is that they will keep you entertained while
you are on a jog. Overall I was not impressed. they are very tinny. Most of the
time it sounds like I have a set of pop cans on my ears. And the bass is non-existent.
Next is the battery life. How long can they last?
These headphones can go the distance. The battery life on
one charge is astounding. They say 10 hours solid talk and listening time. I think
that I have gone past that but I don’t listen to them constantly for 10 hours. I have charged them once and I only use them in the morning for 30-35 min,
and I have not needed to charge them since the month that I got them. (I would say
that I have about 20 hours on them, probably more)
Last is the fit. How they feel on the long haul.
So first off they feel pretty good, and when you are
standing or on a light walk they are great with staying in. everyone has a "but" and this is mine. When you are jogging the left headphone keeps falling out. Now
this could be the way that I have them set up. I have the middle set of rubber
inserts for the ear canal. These are the ones that I can wear for a couple of
hours and not get to much pain in the ear (I don’t really like inner ear
headphones when I am listening for hours on end. I prefer around the ear
headphones like the AKG K702.) I have messed with the rubber holder that
positions the headphone in the ear (a lot). Still it falls out and then I get
sweat in them and they have a hard time staying in after that.
So overall I think that they are good cheap set of Bluetooth
headphones. Fit needs a lot of fine tuning, battery life is perfect, sound is
not amazing, and looks good and minimal.
So I think that on a scale of 1 being the lowest and 10
being perfect, I would give these a 3.5
Thanks for reading. If you agree or disagree please comment.
