Indeed, technology
has come a long way. Several decades ago, people would have never thought that
they would be able to listen to music even without the speaker on. Today, music
lovers have the freedom to listen to any kind of music they want without disturbing
other people around them. That is just one of the benefits of phone headsets.
However,
manufacturers were not satisfied with just the simple headphones so they developed
wireless headsets. Overall, they function similarly to wired ones. The only physical
difference is that they do not require a connecting cord to the phone or music
playback device before they are
able to play the music. But no matter how cool this device may be, there are
still certain factors and conditions which cause it to become defective.
Here are five of
them:
1. Poor
management – There are some headset owners who just throw their headsets after
taking them off. Even if the area is a soft cushion, throwing the headset might
lead to loose parts inside the device.
2. Liquid
– Because your headset still requires electric power, it is does not react well
when placed in water. You may not notice it, but perspiration can also cause
damage to your device, especially if it managed to seep through. Moisture is
also a common suspect, though its effects are not that sudden.
3. Overstretching
– Some headsets which can be worn for the entire day might get overstretched,
especially when fitting different head sizes. It is recommended that the
headset is used by just one person.
4. Dangerous
areas – Areas which can cause defects to headsets include microwaves,
radiation, and other places which can disrupt the flow of signals between the
headset and the device.
5. Manufacturer
defects – There are some instances wherein the owner was able to take care of
the device properly, yet it still sustained a defect. In this case, the defect
may be caused by a manufacturing glitch or damage. Fortunately, you will be
able to get free repair service from the manufacturer if this is the case.
These are five of
the most common causes of defects
in wireless headsets. If you have
already bought one for you or your child and it got defective, then you can
point out any of these causes. For the first four points, you cannot do
anything to obtain free technical support or assistance from the manufacturer.
That is because you were the one who caused the defect. On the other hand, the
fifth reason is valid enough for you to get free repair services from the store
or manufacturer, provided that it is still under warranty.
