This is my review of the Havit HV-H913BT noise cancelling bluetooth headset - http://www.amazon.com/HV-H913BT-Cancellation-Bluetooth-Headphone-Microphone/dp/B00OUFPJN4
As I don’t own a car or so, I’ve not been using this type of headset for quite some time and therefore I was worried about that it was a product that was not useful for me. However, after sitting down a while I found some perfect uses for this product. One of the scenarios is when I work in front of my computer and need to make a few calls – holding a phone in one hand or using speaker phone while working is far from optimal. So with that said, let’s talk about the actual product.
First of all, the product came in a box that showcased the actual product through a window made out of transparent plastic. The box was kind of hard to open, and I had to rip it apart to get into it. Inside of the box you can find the actual headset, as well as a few accessories and some documents. The accessories bundled with this headset are a docking station, a microUSB cable, a plastic thing to put around your ear as well as some different kind of eartips.
The headset itself is made out of mainly black plastic, and front have a pearl’ish finish to it. There’s a few buttons as well such as a powerbutton (switch), a all-in-one button and volume keys. On the the back of the headset, the actual earpiece is located as well as charging pads.
When it comes to the sound of this product, I must say that I’m certainly pleased. Nobody I’ve made a call with have complained about the sound, nor have I had any issues with the actual sound quality on my end. The sound is clear enough for calls, but listening on music through this headset is not recommended as there’s a lack of details.
The part about this headset that really surprised me, though, is how comfortable it is and how well it stays in the ear. There’s no issues with the comfort at all, and it does not fall out of the ear. However, to get a good fit you might have to try all the different eartips to find the one that works the best for you.
The only complaint I’ve got about this product is related to the actual docking station, as it’s kind of hard to get the headset to charge in it. Some times, I’ve had to adjust the headset quite a bit before it even started to charge and this might be a problem. I think it would be much better if they just went for the ordinary microUSB charging slot, and skipped the docking station completely.
But overall, I must say that this is a product that have really impressed me – mainly due to it being so comfortable and the sound quality in calls. However, it got its drawbacks but they’re just minor and I’m really satisfied with the product.

Two weeks ago I was looking to buy a new Bluetooth speaker for my phone on Amazon for under 50 USD, and after a few minutes of browsing around I found this great deal from a company named Havit. I made my order and the speaker was shipped out the same day from their warehouse in China.
Today I received the speaker in the mail in a quite generic looking package, and inside that package there was a nice looking box with the speaker inside. Other than the speaker they included a micro USB cable for charging and audio cable so that you can hook it up to devices which do not have Bluetooth.
The speaker was really easy to connect to my phone, I just had to enable NFC on my phone and place my phone on top of the speaker itself and that’s it. If your phone is not NFC capable you have to hook it up manually, but it’s really easy. Enable Bluetooth, pair the speaker with your phone, and that’s it.
The whole front of the device is covered by a net which protects the two front speakers, and at the bottom of the device the bass is located. The device is made out of rubberized plastic, but a bad part with that is that it collects fingerprints very easily. At the back of the speaker you will find the line in, line out and micro USB -jack and the power switch.
The sound quality of this speaker is actually very good and all the tracks I have played through have been sounding very well overall, but the sound is a bit choppy at 100% volume. That’s the only bad thing I can find really about the sound, other than that the sound is very clear, and the mids and the bass is very good.
Overall this is a very nice speaker, and there is a few minor issues with it but it is nothing big. It is a great little speaker for the price. One thing which would be great is if they would bundle an AC adapter with it, but it is not really necessary.
If you want one, you can order it here:

Havit
I did also buy the same product as you.
The product is extremly cheap for its build quality and audio quality.
The bass isen't really located at the bottom as you say.
I did disasemble it (Great build quality) and find out that it's a ruber pieze moving to the sound pushed by the loud speaker's.
That made this speaker uniqe. There idea is great!
There speaker has great bass because of there idea. Without installing a subwoofer that often takes alot of watts. A can make the battery last half the time that it does without the subwoofer. The speaker is also 100% air tight.
Because of there gaskets and glue. And they also fitted the unit with a oversize battery. That resultats in around 11-12 hour of battery time.
I can only say! Great product Havit. I will buy from you again for sure!
Any idea what the battery is? I need a replacement but its not clear looking at the one I have what the specs are. A 3.7 3000 Ma? Or something else??
First of all, I want to say a big thanks to Mocreo for sending me this product to test!
You can buy it yourself from these places:
Amazon US: http://amzn.to/1q3HeAU
Amazon UK: http://amzn.to/1sQH2Lb
Mocreo Website: http://bit.ly/1wkLguy
Don't like bit.ly links? That;s fine, just use this spoiler for the full link:

Let's begin
The delivery time was very quick, It came only 1 day after Mocreo contacted me, which is excellent!
So, when I actually opened the package, I was greeted by some excellent packaging. The packaging is high quality, it's sturdy and has a great feel to it whilst unboxing. Clearly a lot more work put into it than other speakers I have had in the past.

Opening the box I was greeted with the speaker first, and underneath it, the micro USB (To charge it), an audio jack connector and the quick start guide.
Taking the speaker out of the plastic wrapper it was encased in, the speaker has a very nice weight to it. It feels sturdy, durable. The top and bottom red parts have a nice soft rubber feel to them, as do the side parts (where the on off switch is, and the opposite part).
The controls on the side are easy to use, and they are labeled clearly. Below the 2 switches there are the ports with a rubber cover to protect them. There is a port for the micro USB to charge it with, an audio jack port, and a micro SD card slot.
On the top, there are controls for the speaker volume ("+" to adjust the volume upwards, or to change the song upwards, and "-" to adjust the volume downwards, or change the song backwards), which can also be used to change the song (As you probably picked up from what I said in the brackets). In the middle of the volume buttons there is a microphone, which is perfect for conference calls etc.
When you turn it on, you're welcomed by a voice saying "Hey, I'm ready, waiting for a connection". You can connect via Bluetooth, obviously, or by audio jack connection, or by inserting your Micro SD card, and the voice will let you know that you have connected whatever you connected.
The blue LED in the top left hand corner will let you know that it's turned on, and the red LED in the same place will let you know that it's charging.
The speaker is also waterproof, which is a fantastic feature and very useful for when I go out with my friends, and it starts to rain. I often keep the speaker in my bag when I'm out and about, and it sounds fantastic! The quality is very very good, and I think that it's overall an absolutely great speaker! Would I recommend it? Yes, I definitely would. I have only had it for a short while, and I have already been out, had it in my bag, handled it with wet hands, I went to go through all the tests I deemed necessary, and I can happily say it passed then with flying colors!
The big red volume button looks funny , it may be more convenient
I want to know if i use it to answer a call, whether the sound quality will be affected
I can't get any useful information from your post for it lacks of some data to prove what you said. I found another post, it's more detailed:http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/accessories/review-mocreo-mosound-bar-water-t2861401
This is a review of a pair of Havit on-ear headphones with bluetooth and nfc: http://www.amazon.com/HV-H2555BT-Bluetooth-Wireless-Hands-free-Streaming/dp/B00UL4F22G
I don't really use headphones very often on the go and therefore I didn't think much about getting any, till Havit reached out to me and asked if I wanted to have a look at one of their pairs of bluetooth headphones. I've now used these for a few days and this is my review of the headphones.
The headphones came in a nice little box made out of thick paper and plastic, with a big window that showcased the actual headphones. Inside the box there was a few information booklets, a microUSB cable, a 3,5mm audiocable as well as the headphones themselves. One thing I should mention already is that this box was much better designed than the one for the bluetooth headset, and it was much easier to pop open as well.
The headphones themselves is made out of plastic and a leather knockoff material for the headband, as well as some metal that holds up the actual earcups. The earcups and the headband are padded and feels really soft, but they did not use memory foam on these as it's regular foam; That is however totally acceptable at this price point, and overall these headphones feel quite comfortable. However, I've got one minor complaint and that is that these headphones leak quite a bit due to that they're a pair of on-ear headphones.
Soundwise they sound quite good, and these headphones have a quite punchy bass that's almost a bit "beats styled" which means that it's a bit boosted. The downside of the bass boost is actually that the sound is not so clear, and they might sound a bit muddy for some people that do not prefer a lot of bass.
The headphones pair easily using bluetooth as well, and if your phone supports NFC you can just hold it towards the NFC logo on one of the earcups and it should pair by itself. This is a really neat feature and it makes it easy to pair these with a new device, and saves some time for new users. The headphones are equipped with touch controlls as well, and they actually work fine but it's easy to activate them by accident.
So overall, this is a quite nice pair of headphones; However, this product isn't free from issues but they're minor compared to how much pros these headphones have - and the price tag is low as well so therefore I really like these.

This is my review of a bluetooth speaker from the company iClever - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PU3YI50
So I’ve reviewed many bluetooth speakers in the past but I’ve never really found any specific Bluetooth speakers that I’ve used a lot and that’s very compact, but recently I managed to get my hands on an iClever IC-BTS02 speaker. It’s much smaller than most speakers I’ve found so I was pretty excited about it. Let’s jump right into the review, shall we?
The product itself comes in a small neat little box with the essential product information on it, and inside the box you can find a MicroUSB & audio cable, along with the speaker itself. The accessories is of acceptable quality but they’re not the best I’ve ever seen bundled with a speaker, but at this price point it’s not a deal breaker.
So when it comes to the speaker itself it actually feel super solid and have a zinc alloy housing that look stylish, but attracts a lot finger prints. On the top is the actual speaker driver and at the bottom there’s buttons for controlling the music playback. The buttons feel a bit misplaced as they could’ve placed them somewhere else, as you have to lift up the speaker and then press the button to change track.
The sound quality of the speaker is actually very decent for its small size it offers distortion free audio with a bit of bass, along with decent treble that doesn’t overpower the rest of the sound. It’s pretty balanced, but the bass is a little bit boosted compared to a 100% natural speaker. The speaker also offer decent quality in phone calls, but it’s far from ideal to use it for this purpose.
Pros:
- Decent audio quality that’s sort of balanced
- Good build quality that feels solid and looks stylish
- Affordable
Cons:
- The buttons at the bottom

I was on the lookout for a new pair of earphones as my old pairs broke and as I don’t trust myself with expensive in-ears, I went online and started to look for a new pair to go along with my phone. After a bit of looking, the Somic V4’s instantly caught my eyes as they were similar looking to my old pair (TTPod T1S) and the cable looked great, so I placed an order and have now been properly able to test them out.
The packaging of these earphones is made out cardboard and looks pretty good, and opens up like a book showcasing the earphones. Inside of the packaging you can find some manuals in Chinese, some double-flange ear tips, as well as the earphones themselves. There’s no extra goodies such as a shirt clip or a pouch to store them in, but that’s to be expected for a sub <20 USD pair of earphones.
When it comes to the ear tips of these, I can directly say that they didn’t work out very well for me, and I had to use an older pair of ear-tips from another pair of earphones. The double-flange ear tips didn’t stay in my ears and just made the sound very hollow, but after replacing them I was able to get a perfect seal and the audio turned out to be better than what I expected for 20 USD, but more on that later.
My favorite part of these earphones is the cable, as it gives an illusion of that these earphones cost a lot more than they really do, and I also love the fact that the angled audio jack is very robust and solid. However, the cable also comes with its disadvantages as it tangles up pretty easily and it can easily get annoying if you don’t straighten it out every now and then.
But do they sound any good? Yes, definitely and I really like the sound of these in general. First off, they have some very decent lows, with a deep and quick bass that suits for the type of music that I listen to. When it comes to the mids, they are very detailed and dominant, but they're not overwhelming or exaggerated either, which is just a positive thing. The treble on these is also pretty sharp, but it really doesn’t hurt the ears either and provide a good experience really.
Overall, if you’re on a budget a need a pair of earphones for <20 USD, these are definitely a steal considering that they offer such an amazing value for the money. They both sound good, give an illusion of being more expensive than they really are and they also feel sturdy. Definitely a pair that I can personally recommend and I’m using them as daily drivers with my phone for now!
