I’m returning mine today.
The sound quality in mediocre at best. But the real problem is that they do not work well when jogging. When either my wife or I try to use these while jogging the headphones quickly work their way slightly loose. This makes it almost impossible to hear anything.
The battery life is also fairly short, around 1.5 hours. Range is pretty good and connections have been stable.

I agree, Im on like my 5th, and I think my warranty is up, the volume button has gone on this one too, so now I cant turn the volume UP or DOWN. Luckily when someone texts my phone, for some reason the volume goes up, to listenable. But still not max volume.

I absolutely LOVE AND HATE HATE HATE these headphones. They are perfect if they WOULDNT break down

I cant believe I’ve gone through 5 headsets.
I guess I could buy another pair with the warranty and go through another 5 headsets, thats like 100 bucks a year to wear these.

Instead of 100 bucks to wear these forever.

The buttons on the sides they break and stop working, its so ridiculous. Maybe if they use conventional old-style wheel volume knobs it wouldnt break.

Would be 10/10
But I’d say 6/10 cause they break down. (6 points for warranty replacement)

With no warranty
0/10

MOTOROKR S9 , I’ve had 7 sets…. THESE THINGS ARE NOT SWEAT RESISTANT, YES MOTOROLA HAS AN UPDATED VERSION! IT ALSO SUCKS IF YOU ACTUALLY TRY TO WORK OUT! MAYBE FINE FOR A/C WORKOUT IN A GYM, BUT DON’T RUN, RIDE A BIKE, RIDE A STATIONARY, OR SWEAT. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR WARRANTY!

I have a Motorokr 69 and I’m having problem connecting to my Blackberry 8310. The Headset service won’t connect and it’s only the A/V Remote and Handset that is connecting. What’s seems to be the problem? I have tried everything but failed. Can you help me please.

What chris said. Total and utter garbage if you actually sweat when you run. Mine lasted about two weeks before the slow (meaning another two weeks) decline to complete worthlessness. Besides that, I had to max out volume to hear them over the treadmill. My kingdom for a working running headset.

This is the worst headset i have ever owned i’m on my 5th pair.. i workout eveyday if you get sweat in them, they will stop working. frist the volume goes them the rest of the buttons .. i spoke to motorola about this and someone from them told me that this is a known issue. DO NOT BUY IF YOU WILL WORKOUT

They are very nice, they don’t bounce around as much as you would think. They only complaint I get is that people have trouble hearing me at times but not very often. Other then that, and the bass trouble talked about above, its a very nice device for jogging. I hope I was able to help with your concern.

I’m thinking of buying one of these for running. Yet I’m worried that it will bug me if it bounces a lot behind my head. Does anyone use their S9 for running and does it Bounce a lot behind your head to get annoying? Thank You

Yeah, it’s missing the bass, but for a workout they rock. Especially now with the new lower price.

I am SOOOO disappointed. While these headphones pair up quickly the base response is terrible. I still have my old Motorola bluetooth headphones HT820, which i have head so many comments about it looking like pricess Leah’s (Starwars) side hair-buns. I’m glad now I didn’t get rid of them. So my old ones have a much better BASS RESPONSE than these new rokr s9 model. I am very particular about headphones that should have some kind of decent bass sound. The motorola s9 has almost NO bass response, compared to the HT820 bluetooth. I’ll give them to my kids for Christmas (they’re not so concerned about bass). What a shame

the mic from the s9 is built into the left ear speaker and it actually draws your voice through your ear canal when you wear it, that’s why it is able to block out external noises and deliver crystal clear voice when you talk.
