Aren't these &amp; cell phones both radio wave powered? Will these work if cell phones won't?

These actually operate on an AM radio signal radio to radio. These will work when the SHTF.

Thankfully I barely remember the headphones. I don't think they were rechargeable. I may be wrong. I wouldn't buy them in any case they were useless and did not work at all. I sent them back. If you need wireless phones buy expensive ones that the seller might feel even slightly responsible for. I decided I didn't need any after all and saved my money. Most bits of consumer tat are five minute wonders in any case. Save up for a decent house instead they seem to be the only things that retain their use and value.

No, these are traditional component speakers and are not self-powered. Hope this helps. Barry

These should work with any cell phone, but they don't plug in - they're blue tooth. I use them all day for Spotify on my iPhone. I had issues with my first pair, but 100% would recommended them - Arctic took care of everything at their expense and relatively quickly too. Great company.

Same question , but there are conflicting answers so I'm going to ask again with a disclaimer...Will the headphones work AT ALL if the battery is dead? I do understand that the noise cancelling functionality, and other advanced acoustics require power - but isn't it programmed to play basic audio if there is no charge? It's kinda crazy that a $10 pair of earphones can work without power buy a $350 device is useless without any power. Again, I'm not asking about full functionality - I need to know whether "bare-bones" audio functionality will work without a charge???

Yes they will! We bought a total of 12 of them. Some from different stores, and they all use the same frequencies. They work great with the specific range. We only use them at a distance of about a half a mile.

I just researched that very thing today.I haven't tried it yet , but as far as everything I looked up, yes, they will work an iPhone.I'm going to try it with my iPhone 4s. The plug is the right size also. I love these Bose phones, by the way. Sounds great.

These phones were replacements for my telephone system so I don't know if they work without the system. Even my jacks in the location ONLY work with systems phones. I do not use batteries with these phones. They must be wired thru the electrical system because when there is a power failure the phones don't work. (maybe just line 1, I believe)

No. I never found one yet to be off any use. Can't hear them and they can't hear you. So I've only relied on wired. However, I've been told the Jabra Wave might work.

I'd agree with Jim - it's a misnomer referring to the fact that they are cordless since they get their power from a rechargeable battery not by plugging into a power source. If they were truly wireless as in Bluetooth that would really be a bonus, but they are not.

I purchased them to use at work because my boss would not buy any. There is just one piece and only end to be plugged into the phone. I can't say for sure but they should work on any phone. What I can say is that they work great for the money.

They do not make these for use on cell phones. It also won't work on cordless phones.

These are not powered speakers, so they will need some sort of amplifier to power them. You can connect your phone to the Amplifier which in turn powers these speakers, so technically yes, you can connect up a smart phone......Just not directly.

Yes they are.. if they are used with your cell, it doubles as a microphone.

Yes they will work wired without power. However when using the Noise Cancelling feature they will use power from their battery. So if you were trying to use the Noise Cancelling feature with a dead battery you would be out of luck. Otherwise you can simply plug them into any source and listen away.

No, these are just the speakers. The receiver I have them plugged into can play my phone.

I can't answer with certainty but most likely no. These run off a simple RF signal that is in the 433 MHz frequency band. Your phone does not work in that frequency band.
