Genius BT 03li

Stereo Bluetooth headsets are becoming the new thing to have, especially if you’re always on the move. The Genius BT-03li is one such stereo Bluetooth headset and that too with touch sensitive buttons and a very unique design.

The BT-o3li is a street style or neck band style of a headset, though  it may look similar to standard headphones that rest on the head. There are rubber straps over each side of the  headphone which are supposed to hook onto your ear. The earpads themselves are on the smaller side and we did not find them very comfortable. The touch buttons are located on the left side, while the mini USB port (for charging) and the power switch is on the right side. To adjust the volume, slide your finger in a circular manner. Tap the center area to accept and end calls. The touch buttons respond well. One feature we didn’t like is the way it lights up each time the buttons are touched; there is really no point in this.

The sound quality of this headset is decent. Although the BT-03li reproduces decent bass, it lacks in mids and highs. Call quality was above average as we could hear the person speak, but the microphone wasn’t able to pick up everything that was being said clearly. Pairing this device was simple and wasn’t an issue.
