Manual of product BackBeat FIT
Editorial note
The Plantronics BackBeat FIT headphones offer an immersive audio experience thanks to excellent sound quality, with a wide frequency range from 50 to 20,000 Hz and a sensitivity of 105 dB. Their lightweight design of 24 g and in-ear coupling ensure prolonged comfort, making them ideal for sports activities or commuting. Additionally, the battery life is impressive, with up to 8 hours of continuous audio playback and a quick recharge time of only 2 hours. However, some drawbacks deserve to be highlighted. Although the battery life is adequate, it may not be sufficient for heavy users who wish to listen to music for long periods without interruption. The Bluetooth 3.0+HS model, while effective, is now outdated compared to newer versions, which may affect connectivity with some recent devices. Furthermore, although the headphones are relatively lightweight, their weight can become uncomfortable during prolonged use for users sensitive to the pressure of in-ear headphones. The lack of a foldable feature also limits their portability, making them less convenient to carry. Finally, the IP57 protection against dust and moisture is an asset for use in various environmental conditions, but it is worth noting that these headphones are not suitable for prolonged immersion, which may be a drawback for water sports enthusiasts. In terms of value for money, the features are decent, but the mentioned limitations may warrant special attention when purchasing.Score details
