Once again I want to present to you the original buyer's guide, this time related to the bluetooth-headsets of all stripes, both mono and stereo. I want to say in advance that were selected solely things pleasing to me personally, in different price ranges, different positioning and purpose. After the holidays would be a lull, people will once again delve into the work, but in the end of May people come to his senses. After summer vacation, renovation, and all that jazz. I hope this article helps you choose the right thing. There is a great desire to write in the May guide to players, but the hand with the last of the material has not changed much. Music phones are dead, then fit just pick any model, let's say, "summer". But the meaning is lost again: earlier this category, I personally attributed tiny but functional device like the Sony Ericsson W880. Now the small functional units are also there, but nothing truly outstanding does not occur. It would be good to guide the joint efforts of cameras, but not in the wording of a specialist at this level. Directly and urge to put a sad smiley. Or come up with something like a guide to the summer gadgets. There may also be protected by cameras, some associated with the warm sea and phones, iPods and other things. Maybe you will have some ideas on this subject? If so, write in the forum.
While talk about the headset.
Jawbone Icon
 | Review of Bluetooth-headset Jawbone Icon |
Probably the best recommendation for the Icon will be the fact that I myself use it constantly. Plus managed to plant our author Ilya Tarakanov. To a certain point, he ran on such things as the devil from holy water. I can safely recommend this product to purchase, especially users Iphone. I almost forgot, Icon can work with two devices at once, for many people - important point.
Jabra Halo
Not so long ago I asked a representative sample of commercial Halo, the prototype behaved no better. I wanted to check how things are going with the public version. As far as I'm concerned, the model has become quite popular - we are not talking about millions of sales. Just among these accessories Halo was a definite milestone, special thing. But - with a number of congenital defects. I wrote about them long ago, in a review. | Review of Bluetooth-headset Jabra Halo |
"Good afternoon, Sergey
In addition to your review HALO want to offer photo sets posledvuh months of use. From velvet headband has remained about one-third.
The rest migrated shreds of clothing.
Officer Support published on http://www.jabra.com/Sites/Jabra/ru-ru/Pages/MobileSupport.aspx mobile phone +7 (916) 24 66 900, reported that:
- They're peeling off.
- Deterioration in appearance to the warranty cases does not apply.
- This problem is not marriage, it's normal quality devices cost about 4500 rubles.
A whole bunch of diseases.What cost to replace the velvet on a soft plastic? Or why did not use conventional hinges? I say nothing about the assembly, the marriage may be running into everywhere.
So why Halo got a list of the best? For a very simple reason. Despite the "features", there is no invoice wireless headset smaller. Any Motorola S9 does not count, it is by and large simply headphones with a jumper. But Halo is really playing well. Still can work with two phones at once. And talking with the device is nice. In the commercial sample, unfortunately, also remained an issue with connecting with a complete cable. Once you turn Halo into wired headphones, its like a little "pereklinivaet, helps reset.
As Boris and wrote an accessory rather expensive - about four thousand rubles and more. If you know about the shortcomings, can not avoid them? Unfortunately, no - velvet ribbon may wear off during activity. Do not put Halo, so as not to break the hinges? But both want to shove it in your pocket, you will agree.
Summing up, Halo is still pleasant to me. Recently at Gorbushka saw a man wearing a cap, at first did not understand what he has closed his ears - the characteristic rectangular plate of gray. And nothing seems never sticks: there is a Halo shortcomings, but a Halo one.
Sony Ericsson MW-600
Built-in radio works with any phone that included headphones are good, but in case there are 3,5 mm jack - you can connect anything. Quite a long time, nice appearance. When designing, I think, assumed the most relevant scenario in the summer when the headset is attached to a collar shirts, polo, or shirt, headphones in ears, the phone in your bag - and forward, in the city. Without the disadvantages it has not done: the touch pad volume frankly annoying for normal use the Connect menu, need training. Promised rates in two-plus thousands of yet no one came. A pity.

Nokia BH-905
A friend of mine was walking down the street with the BH-905. Music listening. And then - hooligans. Gave him, then on the head, took the phone, money, everything else.Sad story.

Motorola HX-1 Endeavor
The first series headset in the world, reading the vibration of bones of your skull. Treat with respect. Large, with an aggressive speakers podium speaker, user management and, as often happens with seemingly perfect product, far from ideal. For example, when you're just talking with HX-1, the sides may start to complain that you can not hear. Lightly press the device with your finger, and there will be a miracle. The problem will be gone in a second. The device is not so long ago appeared in our retail formally, the price is about three and a half thousand rubles. Do you need money for these experiments, decide for yourself. | Motorola Endeavor HX-1 - first glance |
Blueant Q1
I would describe this piece as follows: ideal for lovers to chat with a headset. Put it on the table and tell his whole life, day by day, hour after hour. Skip the first hundred square meters, drink a liter, to dance with a headset, kiss her and all that jazz. Just off the headset Blueant voice control is implemented so far better than any other accessories. Initially, even scary. Device anyway, you say in English with the accent or not - I have not once or twice praise the efforts of specialists of the company. In addition, merit special assessment proceedings for the welfare of users of devices based on Android OS: There is a special application that facilitates the connection of headsets. The new firmware appears more and more new features, such as recently for Blueant Q1 was added profile A2DP. More by this case will make a new product, but here, each user of the old accessory will "seem" just like that.
It is a pity that in Russia there are no official sales - maybe someone will?

Jabra BT2080
One of the best inexpensive headsets that differs neat appearance, sound system controls, good voice quality. Standard connector microUSB, the normal time. Balance, that's the main plus of the device. Continually see this pattern of drivers, some use it just as a headset for the car. Price - 1200 rubles, sold everywhere. | Overview Headset Jabra BT2080 |
But most importantly ...
I was surprised at the moment is this: There is not one large manufacturer has not provided product worth up to five hundred rubles in retail. Can I achieve this? I think you can. Is it possible to make money? I think you can. If the headset does not serve as an accessory for the "special people" but rather as an ordinary thing, something like a battery. Do not have to think of something with a design, do not conjure with the functionality, enough to make some amusing things that are attractive to the majority at the expense of prices.Contained in the material things interesting, but most expensive and inaccessible for those who want to try. This is quite normal - but in the case of bluetooth-headsets prices to be a serious obstacle not only for sales but also for the further development of an entire category.
And every year nothing changes, unfortunately. The crisis demonstrated the fragility of marketing for bluetooth-accessories. Maybe it's time to change something?
