Sony DR-BTN200 Wireless Bluetooth NFC Headphones - €29.99 [Carphone Warehouse]

Basq · 02-03-2015 2:44pm #1

Picked up a set of these in CPW Sligo yesterday..

Carphone Warehouse

White may be not everyone's preference in the colour of headphones but can't deny they sound superb for the money.

Plus volume control and remote control on it work perfectly with my Nexus 4 - when using Spotify etc.

Currently £42 from Amazon, €55 from Argos, €119 direct from Sony and €112 from Pixmania.

EDIT: They seem to be €99.99 on website but were definitely €29.99 in-store yesterday. Maybe worth giving them a call as there was 4 - 5 in the Sligo branch.

Just picked these up instore cpw castlebar. Had a whole wall full priced at 29.99. Nice find op cheers

JohnMearsheimer · 02-03-2015 3:52pm

I picked them up about 2 weeks ago for 30. The price seems to be going up and down from 100 to 30. I wouldn't pay 100 for them but they're well worth the 30 euro.

Alanstrainor · 02-03-2015 3:53pm

Bought them with vouchers in argos for ~50 quid a few months back. They're fantastic. Amazing battery life, I charge mine once every 2 weeks. And the sound quality is perfectly fine too. The joy of not having any cables to worry about is the best bit.

Yeah, could be just on website though. Bought yesterday at €29.99 in-store and there were a few more priced at that behind counter too.

Cheers EJ22. Seems to indicate they're still that price in store so.

long_b · 02-03-2015 4:26pm

Pretty sore on the ears after just over an hour.

I'd definitely agree, they're so handy.

Pity they're only in white!
Be nice in black/blue/red.

seamey beag84 · 07-05-2015 12:50am

Just reserved mine. The colour is a bit off putting but I'll only be using these around the house so what harm.. haven't got a bargain alert for a good while aswell so Cheers!

DaraDali · 07-05-2015 1:15am

Thanks just reserved mine aswell thanks didnt need them but got them anyway

DubDJ · 07-05-2015 3:12am

I was pleasantly surprised with mine, got them about three months ago. It was weeks of usage before I had to charge them. Haven't used them too much the last 2-3 weeks but I've charged them once since I got them around the start of March. Sound quality is great for the price, they're strong enough and comfortable. Protective case is nice as well, buttons on the side are dead handy.

At €30 if say these are a must buy, even if you don't really need them. I like the white colour, but I only use them around the house.

They loosened up well and now I can wear them all day. Thoroughly recommended!

NegativeOne · 07-05-2015 6:46am

Havent treated myself to a BA in a while and i've been looking for a cheap set of Bluetooth headphones so I'm picking up a set today. Thanks to the OP.

EITS · 07-05-2015 7:13am

Can these be used with a PC in any way?

I'd imagine you could pick up a USB Bluetooth adapter in dealz or the like for â‚¬1.49 and it'd work that way

Can anyone confirm these cheap Bluetooth adapters would work for music streaming?

ED E · 07-05-2015 8:25am

If they're bluetooth v3.0 or later they'll support A2DP streams aka all music. Should say on the box. Take a punt at €2 if they dont say :pac:

gimmick · 07-05-2015 10:56am

One set left on CPW Wilton.

ErinGoBrath · 07-05-2015 11:27am

This forum costs me soooo much money, cheers lads

total former · 07-05-2015 11:48am

That is a serious price, just reserved one for collection in Grafton St. Thanks.

Nonsense. One can never have enough good headphones.

total former · 07-05-2015 2:02pm

Just got a pair in Grafton St store, still a couple left.

ED E · 07-05-2015 2:06pm

Mine were dispatched an hour ago

.G. · 07-05-2015 2:40pm

Ordered a pair for collection from liffey Valley. Got a confirmation email but doesn't say when I can collect.

DanC90 · 07-05-2015 3:40pm

Would definitely recommend these, I have them almost 3 months now and use them a lot but so far I've only had to charge them twice in that time.

The sound quality is great for the price and the built in controls work perfectly.

Tinie · 07-05-2015 3:57pm

Nice headphones for the price. Build quality is decent and sound quality is fine for the price/bluetooth (bass isnt great), but battery life is excellent and the carry bag is well made.

ErinGoBrath · 07-05-2015 4:24pm

A good few left in Rathmines

Thanks. 4 left there now.

.G. · 07-05-2015 5:08pm

They have a few in Liffey Valley too.

NegativeOne · 07-05-2015 5:28pm

Those Bluetooth adapters in dealz are only Bluetooth v2 so I take it they won't work then?

Access · 07-05-2015 6:16pm

Have two pairs of these for the kids since the BA of this back at the start...

They are brilliant for the money, way cheaper then Amazon, solid and no problems.

The only thing i would say and like others have previously said, is that they do hurt your ears if you wear them for a long time (2hrs+) - but this is only a minor complaint.

Mickeroo · 07-05-2015 6:21pm

Was thinking about getting some headphones and then saw this thread, must be fate so would have been rude not to. Grabbed a pair in Carrick on Shannon, loads left in stock too. Thanks for the heads up.

TitianGerm · 07-05-2015 6:22pm

Order a pair for collection in Wexford. Thanks guys. I missed out the first time around.

gimmick · 07-05-2015 6:45pm

Looking to make a few quick quid are we, at the expense of people who actually want the headphones?

True bargain alerts spirit!!
