I have been quite impressed with several of the Brainwavz headphones in the past, and the BLU-300 are the first Bluetooth headphones and the first sports orientated pair I have reviewed from them.

I am generally indifferent towards this new true wireless earbud trend; I find the convenience of no wires is weighed down by poor performance and loose-fitting earbuds.
