Arctic Sound P311
The headphones themselves have a compact shape and a design that is well in line with other Arctic Sound products.
The design is the over ear style that is popular for use with portable media players. The cup designs are largely symmetric with all of the buttons integrated into the design of the right cup. The button with a telephone icon is multi-function. It is used to turn the unit on, make the unit discoverable, Play and Pause music, and answer phone calls. The ring around this button contains a red and blue LED which light up in various combinations depending on what the headset is currently doing. All of the LED functions are explained the product manual.
Above the multi-function button are the two volume control buttons. These control the volume of the headset itself, rather the volume of the audio playback devices or the software on them. Below the multi-function button are the forward and back buttons.
The speaker cups are a half-can style, with a thin fabric mesh covering the speaker holes and heavily insulated foam-filled surrounds to help keep noise out. The surrounds are made of the same material seen on most half-can and full can headphones rather than the cheaper stuff seen on most over ear headphones
Along the bottom of the the right cup directly below the Forward button is a slot for the microphone. When the headset is worn, the slot runs about parallel with your mouth, roughly 45 degrees from the bottom of your ear.
To the left of the microphone slot and below the Back button is the charging port. It is a USB Mini-B plug hidden under the piece of rubber that locks into place when not in use. When the headset is being worn, the slot and rubber cover are pretty much out of sight.
