Review: Sennheiser MM 30i Headset
Besides being a smart phone, my Blackberry gets used as a music player. That’s an important feature for me as I travel a fair bit doing work for clients. The headset that came with my Blackberry was shall we say, less than impressive. So I went into my local big box store and walked out with the Sennheiser MM 30i headset. Now I will say right up front that this is designed for the iPhone. However it did partially work with my Blackberry. The volume controls didn’t work, but the center button that allows you to use the voice dialing function did. That was fine with me.
Now this headset is of the noise cancelling variety and it works quite well. They’re also in ear headsets that come with different sizes of rubber ear inserts so that you can find your perfect fit. The sound quality is great. From crisp highs to brain-rattling lows, they deliver the goods. If I have to make a call, callers can hear me clearly using the built in microphone. If they do fall down in one area, it’s the fact that there’s no carrying case for them. Sorry, that’s a bit lame.
Other than the lack of a carrying case, I like this headset and I recommend it to anyone who wants quality sound on the go. Remember they’re intended for iDevices but they may work with other smart phones. Your mileage will vary.

These headphones don’t just look good – they are that good, all the way down to their high-tech insides. Exceptionally comfortable and aesthetically pleasing, they provide a perfect example of what exquisite headphones Sennheiser specialists can produce out of pure enthusiasm and solid years of experience and expertise. The beige exterior of the HD 598 high-end headphones features high-gloss burl wood parts with matching earpads – all this slendour betrays the HD 598 earphones as pure unadulterated elite in the eyes of everyone around. And people will be looking – Sennheiser products tend to draw attention.
