Two new bluetooth headsets from Jabra – Stone & Extreme
GN Netcom, specialist in headset solutions, has unveiled two new Bluetooth headsets for the Malaysian market – the Jabra Stone and the Jabra Extreme. With recommended retail prices at RM499 and RM319 for the Stone and Extreme respectively, the new Jabra headsets are targeted at the upper range of the Bluetooth handsfree market.
The more expensive Jabra Stone is notabe for its eye-catching design, which is markedly different from offerings available in the market. It wraps behind the user’s ear, eliminating the standard on-face microphone. It also comes with a palm-fitting wireless portable charger, which doubles as a compact carrying case.
The Jabra Extreme, meanwhile, is claimed to have ‘outstanding noise cancellation coupled with completely natural voice acoustics’, making it the ‘most advanced’ Bluetooth headset in the market. For a comfortable wearing experience, the headset comes with a specially developed Ultimate-fit Eargels™ which moulds to any ear shape.
The Extreme is also capable of automatic volume adjustments to suit the surrounding environment and incoming voice, with Acoustic Shock Protection featured to protect the wearer from a sudden blast of noise. It can also simultaneously connect to two devices at any one time.
