These headpones have been selling like hot cakes since release, and our customers have had nothing but praise for them. Easily the best accessory that Nokia have for sale at this moment in time.

Ulso you just sound like a headphone snob with all your Sennies and Bosies. these Nokias fit the bill if you have a small head and small ears and don’t want your ears lost in the massive DRBT50 or Q3 bulbous housings. they fit the bill if you have a Nokia phone and do need the bluetooth. they fit the bill if you want to pay the money for them. they fit the bill if you’ve been looking for something with aural physicality but not too loose, audiophile quality, Nokia compatibility and their usual high but not too prohibitive price like, all that likeI have been looking for. Jackpot. You get what you pay for, and you should get what you want. To each his own.

Why would they compare them to headphones (like Sennheiser PXC-300? This product is a headset….as in answer a phone call and talk….

I got my pair of BH-905 yesterday. They work perfectly over Bluetooth with the iPhone and a MacBook Pro.

To compare I also have these headphones:
Sennheiser HD-600
Sennheiser PXC-450
Sennheiser PXC-300
Bose Quiet Comfort 3

The Nokia BH-905 sounds mostly like the Bose QC3, with the same kind of muffled sound. Not as much bass as the QC3 but exactly the same lack of highs.

Calling these cans the best headphones ever is really to stretch it if you ask me. I’m quite a bit disappointed with the sound quality, at least if compared to the Sennheiser HD-600.

The only reason to buy the BH-905 would be to have the wireless experience.

There tends to be some distortion now and then, and with the active noise cancellation turned on there’s this annoying high tone in the background.

My best headphones so far are the Sennheiser HD-600. The others don’t come close.

My advice is to stick to the Bose QC3 for noise cancellation if you can do without the Bluetooth.

Wolfson Microelectronics are a well known audio microchip manufacturer who have supplied iPhones, iPods, many well known mobile phone companies etc… Bit surprised you’ve not heard of them!

Anyone have a view how these compare in size and performance to the Bose Quiet Comfort 3
