ntCheck out my full ZDNet review for more thoughts, details, and experiences with this Bluetooth headset.
Headset and BT transmitter
ntThey sent both the Bluetooth transmitter and headset to evaluate.
Bluetooth transmitter for iPods without a BT radio
ntThe small Bluetooth transmitter is used for iPods that do not have an integrated Bluetooth radio. You simply plug this into the 30-pin connector and connect to the headset via Bluetooth.
Front of the headset retail box
ntThe OT Tags come in a plastic box and are available in both black and red colors.
OT Tags wrapped in retail packaging
ntThe headset folds up to a small footprint. The cable connecting the two pieces is a durable braided wire that is about 32 inch in length.
The earbud end of the OT Tags
ntThe two earbud ends might appear a bit large, but the plastic is durable and lightweight so you really cannot even tell they are in your ears.
Durable instruction sheet
ntThe manual is a simple two-sided piece of durable plastic coated paper that clearly describes all the functions and operations of the headset.
Different earbud tips for your ear
ntYou will find a few options for earbud sizes and should find one that fits you well.
Included USB cable to charge the headset
ntA small USB cable is included to charge up your headset, but unfortunately it is not microUSB like most phones today.
Right side volume controls
ntOne side of the right earbud has volume controls that can also be pressed longer to control track play.
Multi-function button and indicator light
ntThe large big foot icon on the right earbud is the multi-function button (MFB) that is used to control calls and music playback. The small light flashes blue or red at different times.
Removable earbud tips
ntThe earbud tips pop off so you can put the ones that fit you on the end.
Charging port
ntThere is a small port for charging up the headset with the included cable.
Cable and connector
ntThe wire connecting the earbuds is durable and does not get twisted like many other cables. There is also a small piece that can be used to connect the two cables together.
