Plantronics Backbeat Fit
Price: Rs 6,999
Workout and music go hand in hand. Be it exercising in a gym, walking on a treadmill or jogging in a park, most of us prefer to wear Bluetooth earphones to enjoy our favourite tracks.
The new BackBeat Fit from Plantronics has been designed keeping the same in mind. Connecting the earplugs is a flexible band with the rear edge having a reflective design, useful at night. Plantronics claims it to be sweat proof, with the p2i coating that prevents it from liquid damage but won't are not meant for underwater sports.
The earloops are designed in such a way that they won't come off while running. There are controls added to the earphones with play/pause on one side and call answer on the other.
Pairing it is simple, just turn on the Fit and select it on the phone. While one can play or pause by pressing the left control, double tap skips the track. A single press on the right button answers the call and a long press rejects it. The sound quality of this earphone isn't out of the world. The bass was just about average.
