Beoplay H8

It happens sometimes when I either adjust the headband or press down on the headband piece. It must be some interference with the antenna. Thought that they would fix it on these newer ones... oh well.

I have a new pair of Natural coloured ones on the way. Wish they did an argilla bright with silver metal, rather than gold

Just received an email saying black and natural are available.  The new colours are on the website now too.

Will pick up a black pair from @Sheffield when they are in

I received an email about the black H8s being available.  I ordered a pair online with Beoplay and will receive them on Monday.  I will be able to compare the H8 with a pair of Beats Studio wireless noise cancelation headphones which I plan to give to my wife.

I wish I could go to a Bang & Olufsen store to buy the H8s but there are now too few stores left in the US.

Sounds like a defect. My first pair of H8's did the same thing, but my replacement pair was fine.

my dealer is ten minutes walk from home  I'm very lucky  (or maybe that was good planning on my part )

 

Can anybody tell me where the h8 battery meter appears on an iPhone screen

top right hand corner.

For a detailed view, swipe down from the top of the screen to access the notification center.

But be advised, it seems that the H8 is reporting the battery in steps. So it might show 100% for quite some time.

 

Got my replacement today! yeahhh

Yippee!  I received my new black H8s today.  The sound is very detailed and clear.  No problems.

I am really shocked. This is not the Bang & Olufsen from the past.
