After the conversation is completed, music will automatically resume. It doesn't get much better than that. It seems that I had a call placed directly on the answer phone of my head as I listened to my music. I couldNot be listened to with the excuse that the phone because I have a new CD has been revised. Battery life is pretty solid, lasting about 12 hours while constantly listening to music, with the ability to retain a charge while in standby mode for days on end. Packaged with the headset is a 2.5mm to 3.5 mm cable, allowing you to have the headphone double up as a standard wired headset to help things along when the battery runs out but you want to keep the music going.
