Beoplay H8
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 6, 2016 11:43[quote user="frean754"] I dont know what to do, the H8 are usless with the dropouts, and no response from Beoplay. I cant understand how they can examine them for 15 minutes and then decide. When Beoplay confirmed they h…

in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 19, 2016 13:13[quote user="jonnyb"] Hmm...when I went to use them this lunch time, the indicator had jumped from 100% to 70%. So, maybe the H8s can only report their battery life in broad chunks rather than in a more detailed way. [/q…

in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 16, 2016 10:35I also noticed the battery level indicator stays rather high, but I always assumed it was because I charged them regularly. I'll use the for a few days without charging and report back. The indicator on the iPhone home s…

in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 9, 2016 10:17Hi Martin Yep, seems in all respects to be the same experience and end-result as myself! I can inly urge others with the issue to contact BeoCare. Regarding firmware update, if you see the battery indicator on your phone…

in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 6, 2016 08:20Hi Folks OK, I have spent some time now testing while walking with the phone in front-left jeans pocket, relatively tight. There is still the occasional blip in the signal, but not excessively so - certainly within the b…

in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 30, 2015 13:37[quote user="riverstyx"] Thanks for the update Lycanthrope. Out of interest can you tell me how long the process took - from when your original pair were collected until the replacement pair were delivered? I finally got…

in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 30, 2015 13:31[quote user="k3wt"] Hi there Well that's good news. Mine have been great, touch wood... I do get a split second dropout here and there when I'm walking with the phone in my jeans pocket. If this doesn't happen anymore to…

in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 29, 2015 21:52Hi Folks, Well, seasons greetings to you all, regardless of your beliefs or location. So, an update... You may remember that I had bought a pair of H8's from Amazon and they exhibited the persistent cutting-out issues th…

in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 9, 2015 11:45I get the impression that behaviour varies from headphone to headphone, but for sure they are supremely comfortable! I wrote to B&O customer services and although it took a while, I got the following response: "We are aw…

in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 7, 2015 15:12OK, after a weekend of testing and then today with the same jeans, it's actually no better, no change at all in fact . So having the iPhone in my jeans pocket - not a particularly tight fit - and it cuts-out all the time…
Beoplay H8
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 4, 2015 14:28Yes, agreed that the ANC behaves better for the walking noise - it's still there, but much less. I also noticed that the headphones pick up very little wind-noise compared to the ones I've tried in the past (most brands …

in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 4, 2015 13:22OK, an update... The cutting-out issue is not resolved, but I would say that it's dramatically improved. However, I still want to try it out at home with the same pair of jeans. It's my perception, also, that the connect…

in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 4, 2015 09:49Hi Folks - me again, second post 😐 I think I bring good news... I just installed the firmware update - 8.0.2, I think it was - and it *appears* to have dramatically diminished the cutting-out. I say "appears" because I'…

in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 3, 2015 16:19Hi Folks! My first post... I've owned B&O A8 earphones in the past - they were superb, but got pushed-aside when I got my first pair of BT headphones, Sennheiser MM450's... Since that time, around four years ago, I've be…
