Question 1

Is it sweat and water proof?

Accepted Answer

These are NOT sweat or waterproof. Look elsewhere if that's an important characteristic to you.

I am now on my 2nd pair.   Bought the 1st about a year ago  and the 2nd earlier this week.   Dawn Steele is dead on. They fail to stay connected unlike previous LG headphones I've used.  I've been sold on LG because I love the verbalization of my text messages especially when I can't immediately check them.  Ultimately,  I may return my 2nd pair since its connectivity issues are consistent with the 1st.

Question 2

Does it vibrate on calls? So you won’t loose a call?

Accepted Answer

Yes it does vibrate on calls.

Question 3

Can I control Siri on these like I could with the 750’s?

Accepted Answer

Does any newer LG model do what the HBS 750 model did? I’m searching because I lost mine, they were 6 yrs old and still going strong. Anyone know of a headset w the same awesome functions? Come on LG BRING IT BACK!

Question 4

Is there a volume adjust on these headphones?

Accepted Answer

Yes there is, and yes it works, but it comes with one hilarious design problem. Each time you push the button there's a loud beep, and I do mean LOUD!  I guess this beep's purpose is to let you know it's responding to the button press?

Anyway, here's how it works in real life:  So, you can't quite make out the sound during a quiet part of your podcast or your movie or whatever.  You push the button a couple of times to raise the volume.  So, **exactly** at a moment when you are straining to hear what's being said, you are having to hear this very loud "BEEEEEEP BEEEEEEP."  
For this reason, very often I have to rewind to hear what I have missed, or just be philosophical about not hearing everything. I love them anyway, but it is kind of annoying. You might prefer to always change volume from the source rather than from this headset.
