Phone processor seems to make a difference on the BT connectivity issue. On the 5S I have no problems. On the 4S I definitely do. They're not the best for music and probably won't be with the kind of technology, but they're more than adequate and they're great for gPs. If you have a slower phone, use the standard ones,the cord is really long and you still have lots of flexibility.
