AUGUST EP650 BLUETOOTH / WIRELESS OFFERS EXCEPTIONAL VALUE FOR MONEY

With the increase in the number of wireless headphones in the market, the August EP 650 is another addition to the same list. It is well sought after in the US and the UK, as a reasonably priced pair of headphones providing Bluetooth connectivity as well as a near-field communications (NFC) feature.

For those of you who haven’t come across NFC before, it is a feature that is primarily required in Smartphones and other similar devices, in order to establish radio communication with each other by simply touching them together, or by bringing the two devices to each other’s proximity. The August EP650 can, therefore, be paired with similar devices offering Bluetooth connectivity and can be used simultaneously for music and for taking calls. Connection via its Bluetooth version, a 4 chip, is simple and swift; without wires and tangles.

The headphones have a built-in microphone for answering calls, along with the volume control and call answering buttons on the side of the ear cup. While usually the control buttons are found to be on the ear cup, the August EP 650 ahs it on the edge of the headband that covers the ear cup. A standard 3.5mm socket, connects to any other non-Bluetooth device, and managed to render immense clarity.

Prices and customer reviews of August EP650

It is powered by lithium batteries placed within the ear cups, providing a playback time of around 10 hours with a standby time of 30 days! This is a pretty good performance in comparison to its competitors in the market considering the low price of this headset. However, that’s not its only advantage, as its sonic quality is surprisingly well-balanced too. The August EP650 is a pair of over ear headphones, meaning they cover the entire ear, blocking out surrounding stray sounds.

The styling is fairly decent and modern, and its sturdy and foldable frame and can bear the wear and tear. It comes in 6 colours:

White
Metallic Blue
Metallic red
Black
Silver
Gold

With 6mm drivers, the headphones are provide rich and clear clarity of the lower ranges, while the highs and the trebles are perfectly sharp and well defined.

The ear cup cushions are 12mm thick along with padded headband, providing strong grip, and comfort to the ears even over long hours of having them on. The earpiece remote control allows you to multitask between shifting along the playlist, control volume and take calls.
