 Exceeded my expectations. I love them. September 19, 2009

I bought these music headphones/phone headset directly from Motorola when they first came out, so I have been using them now for five months. I was waiting a long time for something like this and they have exceeded all my expectations.
You can download the quick start user guide from Motorola here:

Fit: 5 out of 5.
I wear glasses so fit was crucial for me, and they work perfectly fine while wearing them. I often wear them while riding my bike along the lakefront at Chicago, and they fit perfectly at the back of my head below the edge of my bike helmet.
Sound: 5 out of 5.
I continue to be amazed at the sound on these, deep rich bass and many subtle sounds.
Also they have lots of volume. I first set the volume at max on my cellphone, which is a free-on-contract Motorola EM330 music phone. At top volume these headphones are loud enough for me to hear them on Chicago's subway train (the EL). Some snobby audiophiles complain that these are not as good as their wired $200 headphones while listening in a totally silent room. Some people cannot be pleased! Also if you don't first max your volume on your cellphone you won't get the best quality sound.
Also since they are not in my ear canal, and not completely surrounding my ear to block out the sound, I find them to be quite safe since I can still hear the world around me while on my bicycle.
While on a call the person on the other end does not know I am using a blue tooth headset.
I hear the sound of the call in both ears and the microphone is high quality, and you have to search for the little elongated mic hole to point it out to people who ask about your headphones!
Features: 5 out of 5.
Your cellphone must have the correct bluetooth profiles for these to work fully: A2DP (Audio Profile), AVRCP (Remote Control Profile).
Many APPLE products DO NOT HAVE AVRCP and then their users INCORRECTLY COMPLAIN about the headphones missing the capabiliy of next track and previous track.
These headphones feature the following abilities:
* Take calls (press the telephone button at the top flat side to pickup).
* Make calls (press and hold the telephone button to call the last number dialled).
* Reject a call (press either the next track or previous track button)
* Mute/Unmute a call (press the Play/Pause button)
* Play music (press the play/pause button at the bottom flat side to play or pause)
* Pause music (press the play/pause button)
* Stop music (press and hold the play/pause button)
* Next track (press the next track button at the right flat side)
* Previous track (press the previous track button at the right flat side)
* You can also fast-forward or rewind by holding either the next track or previous track button.
* The volume controls are on the top edge along with the power button. The volume buttons have ridges you can feel with your finger, and when you increase the volume the headphones make a indicator sound increasing or reducing in volume/tone.
* Also depending on the capabilities of your phone you may be able to use these for voice control of your phone, by pressing and holding the make a call button.
Connection: 4.5 out of 5.
They receive the music through walls and even downstairs as I walk around in my condo listening to the music.
They actually do receive up to 33 feet away! So far away that I sometimes forget where I left my phone while I am listening to music on it!
When I am out walking and they are in my left side back pocket, I sometimes (but quite rarely) lose connection for a second, due I think to my body mass blocking the signal. I think the Bluetooth receiver is in the right side of the headphones, so if I move the phone to the front or right pocket, or even turn it over, the problem goes away. However, this rare problem may also be due to the phone not this headset.
Controls: 5 out of 5.
Having so many controls in such a small space is initially confusing, but you can soon the get hang of it and certainly is done by one hand. I do not stop my bike just to change tracks! I usually have no problems clicking the correct button with my right hand.
If I am slightly confused I can feel for lump where the headband is connected on the right, just beside this is the next-track button. Directly back from it is the back track, which I use to repeat a favorite song. Straight down is play/pause.
Usage Tips:
Set the volume of your music player to the maximum, and then control the volume using the headphones. In this way you get the best quality sound and the highest range of volume.
At the start of music day, I power up the headphones and they make a pleasing chirp sound in my ears.
Then I just press the PLAY button. The phone then communicates with the headphones making the two bluetooth connections (audio and remote control) while I hear a bleep each time. Then the music starts. At this point I lock the buttons on my phone to prevent it for switching tracks by accident in my pocket or bag.
When I am finished using them I turn them off completely, instead of leaving them on standby. Otherwise I might get a phone call that will ring in the headphones which are not on my head, so I miss the call.
When I power them off, I first stop the music, otherwise the music will suddenly start playing out of my phone speaker!
Nice for the Price October 29, 2009

I bought these because the usual Bluetooth devices won't stay in my ear. These headphones work awesome! The sound is very good, although don't expect DJ headphone-quality tones - they will distort on heavy bass or high volume.
Most importantly, the microphone works very well. I've had multiple people tell me it sounds like I'm holding my G1, not speaking through a Bluetooth device. Cost is reasonable, and style is cool, too.
5/5
Excellent quality and price October 26, 2009

These are fantastic headphones! I paired them up with my iphone and laptop, and I was shocked at how good they sound for wireless. No cracks or pops or hissing. They sound as good as any other wired headphones I have. I had some issues getting them to work with windows 7 (32 bit), but found if you just get drivers from [...] it all works well.
Battery life seemed good, about 4 hours of music. Charging is fast. One down side is you can't charge while using them. The fit very well and look pretty cool. I wish they were a bit thinner though, as they look a tad bulky. I used them at the gym, and I felt so free having no cables. Very liberating. I also tried them with my iphone for calls and everyone said I sounded clear. It all works as it should. Very impressed for my first pair of bluetooth headphones. Don't wait another second to get a pair!
Used them on a 4 day, 150km Charity Walk and they worked Brilliantly October 19, 2009

I have just completed a 4 day, 150km charity Walk 4 Autism ([...]) and the Motorola S305 Bluetooth Headphones worked brilliantly.
I was more than happy with the sound quality and the S305's paired easily with my Windows Mobile v6.0 Palm Treo 750, with all the music controls working no problem.
I found they fitted comfortably on my ears, even when wearing sunglasses. I was wearing them for 2-3 hours at a time with no discomfort.
Thoroughly recommend the S305's to anyone looking for a great value set of A2DP Bluetooth Headphones.
So far, so good...paired easily and works well with Omnia July 21, 2009

I have been looking for a good bluetooth headset for some time and stumbled upon this MOTOROKR so I thought I would give it a try. I work out most everyday and just hate the cords that come with traditional over the ear or headset speakers. This device is perfect because it has great range with my Samsung Omnia and sounds just like corded headphones do, maybe better. Highly recommended for those of you who hate cords like I do and nicely priced as well.
