Gear Circle with the Gear S

[Jim Buono]

I noticed when I wear a collared shirt people on the other end of the call can't hear me as well. I have to take them off and put the heavy part of the headset in front of my neck vs around the neck. Where is the mic on these?

BTW, I have a set of Jaybird Bluebud X stereo BT headphones I thought were the best but these have much better sound, awesome battery life, and fit right in with my Note 4 and Gear S. Love them just want to resolve the sound quality for those I'm speaking too.

After a week of trying to keep the earpieces in I returned the Gear Circle. Between the big piece in the back and the relatively heavy earpieces they were constantly falling out and the clip was a nuisance and didn't help.
I switched to the Bluebuds and was ready to ship them back but tried a set of memory foam earpieces. Total transformation. They stay in, provide a great seal and the sound is much better than the Gear Circle. The Comply tips made all the difference.

I'm used to the size of the Circle with the brace because I used to use the LG 730's. I loved to use them for work because of the battery life of those and because of how they stayed in place on my neck while working but I preferred the Bluebuds for their light weight, great sound and comfort while working out (I have the comply tips on my Bluebuds as well). I prefer the Circle now because they are the best of both worlds. When I want the rigidity of the 730's I use the brace with the Circle, when I want the comfort of the Bluebuds I use them without the brace. On top of that I get to keep the awesome battery life and they have better sound to boot IMO.

That's good news for my son since he'll probably inherit the Bluebuds.

Is anyone still using the circle with gear s? I was just wondering what peoples thoughts are now after a few months of use?

I am. I pushed some small hair bands, my little girl gave me, behind the esrbuds where they go into your ear and they stay snug without feeling like they're gonna fall out.
Sound is great , they stay put and after a couple of weeks they feel more natural than my LG Tones+ because the neck band stretched a little and isn't so snug anymore.

I still have a coupon code for $50 off a purchase through samsung and I figured for $50 why not give it a try. I just don't want to be annoyed with buds falling out constantly while running
