Unboxing of the Beats by Dr. Dre Headphones. Out of the box they look incredible but the focus is and should be on the audio quality.

The audio quality with these headphones is “as advertised” and I will be putting these to the test and following up with my full review.

Read the full tale

Apple iPhone is both a mobile phone as well as an iPod – made available within a sophisticated profile. Most of the features of the iPod are available in the Apple iPhone. A web browser, an organizer, a note taker and a camera make the Apple iPhone highly versatile in its capabilities and one of its kind. This revolutionary “handset-cum-iPod” combines the best of hardware as well as software features and is empowered to realize quite a few fantasies of tech-savvy users. As a matter of fact, the high-end functionalities of the Apple iPhone make it immensely well loved among ‘next-generation’ users who are interested in trying out the latest gadgets – as soon as they hit the market.

Some features of the Apple iPod has been substituted and made all the more user-friendly in the Apple iPhone. The inaccuracy of the round click-wheel of the Apple iPod, for instance, has been done away with. The click-wheel has been replaced with a touch screen featuring Cover Flow in the Apple iPhone.

Users could take advantage of the Cover Flow feature to flip though their collection of music files. Another merit of the iPhone is that the quality of audio is quite excellent. There is a built-in speaker that reproduces a range of audio frequencies during audio or video playback.

A physical mute switch is located above the rocker volume control. Users could use this switch to set the phone ringer and other audio signals to ‘vibrate. ‘ The Apple iPhone comes with earbud headphones; users need to just pinch these buttons to pause the music during incoming calls. But, there are some demerits to using the Apple iPhone as well. Users cannot copy files directly to the device. A direct access to a file system or a command line is conspicuous by its absence.

Apple’s design sense has always been splendid; the iPhone 3G doesn’t break conformity. The first time you look at it; you’ll reckon iPod Touch on a high-stout diet. It’s better looking than its predecessor (the iPhone 2G). The black model we received was perfectly finished; thankfully the rear resists normal smudging and scratches. It’s not a very thick device but feels large to hold; although with a 3. 5-inch screen this isn’t exactly a design flaw. Build quality is brilliant. Quality of buttons and switches on the device are top-class. Even the SIM tray fits flush; attention to detailing is very excellent. The buttons on the sides, top and the headphone jack are chromed, and the black bezel and chrome trim add further visual appeal. Apple’s menu system is brilliant with the single main menu button being perfectly functional. The 3G’s appeal lies in its blatantly simple and usable interface and the sheer joy and funkiness of a touch and finger swipe navigation system that works flawlessly. The proximity sensor and low-light sensor work flawlessly. The iPhone menus work well, but the on-screen keypad is a small small and you will make a few incorrect key taps for a month or so, which won’t please SMS junkies. The phones number pad is huge though; and you’d be a clod to goof up dialling numbers. SMS’ sent and received to and from a single number show up as a single entry with the last message exchanged as a preview; the rest of the messages are showed in small green conversation boxes that become visible on selecting the relevant entry; a novel concept that takes getting used to. There is still no way to delete or select multiple messages. For some, the text entry box may also appear too small for practical use. If you try to edit a message after typing it out; the inbuilt magnifier helps as it magnifies the spot where your finger touches, but cursor navigation within the text body remains a tough affair. You also cannot save a typed out SMS as a draft, and the inbuilt email option allows you to save multiple email IDs and password information for uick use; though the on-screen keyboard raises its hideous head again to spoil the party. Its Safari web browser is very basic — no support for Java or Flash. Copy/Pasting is also not supported — a serious omission. We also noticed that the touch interface works with fingers only, not a stylus or fingernails — ladies beware. If you reckon you can get a Bluetooth keyboard to make up for the on-screen keyboard, reckon again; the iPhone’s Bluetooth works with headsets only — no keyboard, and no file transfers. The bundled GPS and Google Maps work well in tandem — better than Nokia Maps. Apple’s inbuilt scheduler and calendar work well; as excellent as any PDA. A lot of games come preinstalled, but there’s no serious office application with document and spreadsheet support. Some of these applications slow down the phone — huge time; though for the most part it’s honestly responsive. The iPhone is a decent phone when it comes to signal quality — it’s a small behind Nokia’s best Mobile Phones in this regard. Voice quality is pretty excellent but the volume is a small low. Sadly the loudspeakers’ quality is very terrible — like a cheap CDMA unit — and a lot of distortion occurs when a voice call is place on loudspeaker. The headset looks like Apple’s earbud headphones but incorporates a small microphone unit that is compact enough to be easily missed. Voice quality on this handsfree unit is absolutely top notch; and the volume level is fantastic. The claimed battery talk time is ten hours; not right, we measured this to be more like five hours. MP3 quality is very excellent; no other Mobile Phone comes close. It has a gorgeous screen for video. Just make sure to ditch the bundled earplugs for music. Eight or 16 GB of inbuilt storage is enough for most; if it isn’t, you should remember that expansion is not an option. The camera is a mediocre 2 megapixels, and isn’t this phone’s forte — you can’t even record video! Sadly, the Apple iPhone 3G only comes as part of a service provider’s scheme — you cannot buy it unless you’re an Airtel or Vodafone customer. Our device was provided by Airtel and is available for Rs 31,000 and Rs 36,100. The first 500 MB of data usage from Airtel is free, after which you pay a nominal charge of 30 paisa per 50 KB.

Are you one of those people that tends to get tangled up in cords while you’re talking or listening to entertainment on your iphone?

You’re not alone. While earbuds are a fantastic invention, they’re well-known for becoming tangled in endless knots. You like them when you’re walking or standing around and being active, because those earbuds are made for mobility, and that’s fantastic.

When you sit down and relax, that’s when they become a real pain. All you wanna do is listen to your favorite tune or have a nice phone conversation with a friend. But, those darn cords are all tangled up in your lap and you keep trying to adjust them or go them out of the way, with minimal success.

Wouldn’t it be fantastic if there were a set of earbuds for your iphone that really

eliminated those messy cords forever?

You’re in luck, because headphone manufacturers are now making retractable earbuds for iphones. They realize that there are lots of people like you out there who like things clean and tidy.

That’s fantastic, so how do they work?

The earbuds retractability comes from a spring loaded disc that stores the cord when not in use. There is usually a simple mechanism that allows the cord to stay in place when you pull it out of the disc. Depending on the model, you just need to give it a tug or two, then it winds back around the disc.

Now lets talk about cord length. Your satisfaction with the length of the retractable earbud cord will vary depending on your height and activity level. While their length is generally fine for sitting, if you are a tall person, you may find that it doesn’t quite extend as far as you’d like. If this is the case, you’ll need to resort to some creative ways to accommodate this shortcoming, like clipping it to a shirt or jacket pocket.

Sound quality is another feature that you want to look for when purchasing iphone retractable earbuds. You should be able to easily switch back and forth from talking on the phone, to listening to music, or perhaps watching a TV show on your iphone in private.

The best earbuds will be a comfortable fit inside your eardrums while you delight in rich, gorgeous sound that’s not “tinny” or full of static. They will usually come with a volume control as well. You also want to make sure you can be heard on the other end clearly.

Now a stylish set of retractable earbuds like the Seidio brand will cost you around

$47. 00 – not cheap, but not a huge investment either. Of course, a cheaper pair might work just as well, but you’ll have to do a small research to make sure you don’t end up wasting excellent money for a cheapie pair of earbuds that don’t perform the way you expect.

Not everyone needs to have retractable earbuds, but if you desire the hassle-free functionality of not having to worry about tangled cords while enjoying your iphone, these earbuds are perfect for your needs.

One of the most well loved iPhone accessories, and owned by nearly all iPhone owners is a set of iPhone headphones. Until recently many third party headphone jacks were unsuitable for the iPhone, but this is now changing and is therefore leaving the iPhone owners a wider selection of headphones to choose from for their iPhone. Depending on your personal choice, and reason for connecting your iPhone with headphones it will vary as to the best choice for you, but the main things to look for when selecting a set of iPhone headphones stars with, as already mentioned, ensuring they are compatible with your iPhone – especially the jack connection, but then another factor to look at is the ability to switch between calls with the headphones. Some models require an additional adapter for this at an extra expense of around $50. The next things to consider with your buy of iPhone headphones would be looking to see if they have a built in microphone if you wish to use them for making and receiving calls and not just media purposes, also, the sound quality is something to consider. The bundle pack iPhone headphones aren´t terrible with their quality but they aren´t the greatest at blocking ambient sound so if you are going to buy an additional set of headphones you need to be sure that you cater for this criteria. And then it comes down to personal choice as to which style of headphones you wish to use with your iPhone, whether you prefer over the ear or in the ear headphones. I personally find that although the over the ear style can in some cases be a small uncomfortable they are better for blocking the ambient sound, and in many cases provide a better sound quality with a better spread of bass. Once you have bought your iPhone headphones, which can be done from an online iPhone store you will need to keep up with the maintenance of them – this is especially the case with in the ear styles, as it is a common issue to have the need to replace the ear buds, this can also be done for the users comfort. With the behind the ear, or over the ear styles it is common for the plastic frame to become bent or snapped, and most iPhone accessory stores will stock replacements for this instance.
