Only at a higher volume you get some bass in your ears. This is very unfortunate, as the sound of the headset is otherwise very good and sounds quite balanced in the rest of the spectrum. But with the BackBeat this one is particularly weak. This is not an explicit problem of the BackBeat FIT 3100, but, as already mentioned, due to the construction of all open in-ear headphones.Īs a rule, they are not particularly bass-heavy. If you want to relax and listen to an audio book or podcast in noisy areas like the subway or the tram, you will hardly hear anything of what has been said. However, in certain situations this is also a disadvantage. riding a bicycle, or even jogging, and so always perceive your surroundings. This has the advantage that you can use them well in road traffic, e.g. This means that the ambient noise is not well shielded. The True-Wireless headphones belong to the category of “open” in-ear headsets. In itself useful, if you like personalizing and can remember what you have set the taps to.Unfortunately, you have to make a few compromises here with the BackBeat FIT 3100, even if this is due to the construction. Via the Back-Beat app you can further adjust the tap control on the earbuds, with different commands for different tap combinations (1 tap or 2 tap left or right). The flat part of the earbuds is itself the button, which is not too sensitive that you inadvertently operate your music, but again responsive enough that you can operate all well with a thick glove. You, mute control volume and skipping ahead or back in your playlist, by pressing the outside of the left and right headphones respectively. ControlsĪfter you have turned on your music, your phone can actually remain in your pocket. When you take them out of the case, they turn on automatically, and by the time you have them on your ears, you hear the friendly female voice announcing that they are on and that you are connected to your phone. I have never been left with empty earbuds. If you store them in the case, the earplugs will be charged, even if the case itself is not connected to power. The set comes in a sturdy protective case that also serves as a charging station with a battery. It always connected quickly and flawlessly. Setting up the connection with my phone was very easy, and I didn’t have to worry about it afterwards.
The ease of use of the Back Beat is what really stood out and I really started to love this set. Otherwise, your caller will not be able to hear you at all. You can answer the phone and use them for your conversations, as long as there is not too much wind. Because the earbuds are quite large I noticed that at higher speeds on the bike there was quite a lot of wind noise. That will be less if you experience more wind. That also depends of course on the volume of your music, which, as mentioned earlier, you can continue to hear well without having to turn up the sound very loudly.
To be honest, I did not really notice that in any obvious way. Plantronics indicates that the Fit 3100 are “Always Aware” earbuds so that you can hear your surroundings well. The balance is very good and you can hear well without having to turn the music very loud. For example, in some of the songs I have been listening to for some time, I suddenly heard new little details in the music.
The sound is really good, with deep tones that ground well, but the Backbeat also performs very well in higher tones.
