BackBeat Sense SEby Plantronics
PROS
- These special edition headphones are water-resistant, so you can wear them in rainy conditions.
- The BackBeat Sense SE feels comfortable and lightweight on the noggin.
- As Bluetooth headphones go, the sound quality is reasonably solid across the board.
CONS
- The noise isolation is so impressive you might not hear oncoming traffic outdoors.
- You may not like the sensor feature, which automatically pauses music when you remove the headphones and picks up again when you put them back on, but this feature can be disabled.
- Bass fiends will need to look elsewhere for a meaty low end.

For a wireless Bluetooth headphone, it does offer very good sound quality. When you play your tracks on wired mode, however, your tracks sound a little bit better. Audio performance leans toward clarity rather than a booming bass.
