Heyo,
So one of the companies that impressed me most at CES was Samson. They came out with two pairs of headphones targeting the consumer market, and both of them sounded good, were jam packed with features, and hit a very reasonable price point.
The RTE 2 is the first one to make it to market. Good clean sound, good comfort. Quite a decent bass hit on these despite being Bluetooth, and an on-ear design that doesn't clamp hard on the ears. Shout out to my big-headed brethren - these extend out far enough to fit comfortably.
The Bluetooth connection has been excellent in my experience, I walked a good 20-30 feet away from my phone before starting to hear crackling. The touch buttons for volume up, down, pause/play and track skipping is great, less fumbling with the phone in your pocket.
Also, a microphone to take incoming calls of pretty decent quality, called a few people who could understand what I was saying under fairly noisy office settings. All of this without a cost that breaks the bank? Yes please.
If you can't tell, I'm pretty excited about this one.
