People are often are under a delusion with an external charm of the goods they use. They usually try to get pleasure having some ostentatious characteristics. Plantronics Explorer 370 Bluetooth Headset not especially differs outwardly. For the first sight it has usual user’s design and it is simply performed. The main and volume control up/down buttons are pertinently located at the gadget. It seems standard.

To deny the fact that it’s “as well as all” there were spent some significant tests. As the number 370 appears in a headset’s name, there were done 370 blows about walls to check the headset on durability, 370 times poor gadget was lowered in water and dragged in a dust. You could think about sequence of distortions that to which has been subjected headset. I should notice it has stood all the tests! After duration of the tests it remained strong and intact.

There are no problems connected with compatible possibilities of the gadget. 370 of the devices were tried for connection to the Plantronics headset and anyone wasn’t excluded from the list. It allows answering the calls and ending them, redialing function and dialing activate. The quality of the sound has passed the test of different circumstances – it has got 100% estimation. “Windscreen technology” is the proof to it. It doesn’t give to pass all the unlikable noises and hindrances inside the ear.

I should say that headset isn’t outwardly attractive at all. However, its long lasting capability and good functional characteristics eclipse headset’s exterior lacks. You’ll enjoy 7 hours of talk time and 8 days of standby time having paid only 80 USD. And even more enjoys – that is connected with headset’s flexible hook style and perfect audio range. The only negative side is hard pressing of the present buttons.

Most of Bluetooth Headsets comes with their standard functions and specifications. Zivio Boom Wireless Bluetooth Headset differs from all headsets and makes amendments and additions in a headset’s world. Represented for the first time at Consumer Electronics Show 2009 in Las Vegas it has won liking instantly. It has categorically other style that the majority of the gadgets have. Recently Zivio Boom became new favorite headset between users that prefer wearing the gadgets over one of their ears. It’s sadly to realize that our favorite Jawbone won’t be at such a wide popularity as before. Simultaneously new noise cancelling technology was invented with that original Jawbone gadget.

However, Zivio became new favorite. It amazes first of all with its graceful thin body that attracts much attention. The general view makes impression of refinement and flexibility. One of the greatest differences in comparison with previous headsets is microphone which functionality consists in possibility to be put forward. It nicely settles down near your mouth. You’ll be surprised with the functionality combined with attractive design it brings to you. All the unlikable sounds will be liquidated and only clear voice hearing will accompany in business negotiations or friendly conversations. Every word you say will be transmitted exactly and every received word will be reproduced as you talk with anybody directly.

Two included sizes of earpieces allow you to make a choice you mostly like. From this choice you’ll understand and determine how well you could talk and hear. Two magnetic ear loops are not only an accessory – they are included to feel confidence in headset’s support. To recharge the Zivio Bluetooth you could use USB cables (to recharge from your PC) or wall charger. Recharging process runs thanks to built-in battery included in the box. After this operation you get 10 hours of talk time or 8 days of standby time (or nearly 200 hours). The established price is 129.96 USD and represented in two colors – “Mission Black” or “Marina Blue”.

Last years are noted with the great developing of business. As well as it is enhanced in all spheres that are connected with it, the most acquirements appear, especially those that promotes favorable conditions in work. That is why users – office workers – prefer usage of the headsets that provide comfort and qualitative communications. Thus work goes very nice.

Sennheiser's new VMX Office headset corresponds to all those demands that are desirable for productive work. New generation of mobile phones are compatible with this one. The recommended functionality is guaranteed and the headset supports communication possibility regardless of the main communication channel. Is means that users could do their work and communicate at the same time and don’t be worried about the quality of the sounds or any of the hindrances. The most undesirable thing is noises that often interrupt everybody’s conversations, make our working activity unlikable and even transmit the data partially that damages normal working process. Using this headset you could quickly forget about this problem because of the built-in special technology that removes for the background noises. Controlling the necessary voice dual functioning microphone VMX Office brings a lot of pleasure.

ESCO or Extended Synchronous Connections is a special additional characteristic says about the fact you shouldn’t think about incomplete business conversations or data losses. This headset works excellent with the Bluetooth compatible devices such as mobile phone or laptop. Headset goes with the special recharging device – so called docking base station. As well as the PC, the docking base station could switch between mobile connection and the connection established by the station. This allows user to connect 3 devices at the same time and manage them by his wish.

Bluetooth specifications include:
- Bluetooth 2.0 version;
- 5 hours of talk time;
- 100 hours of standby time;
- Nearly 14 gr weight;

Successful invention will probably attract everybody’s attention not only by the general view but also by its functional greatest characteristics that are enough satisfactory.

Samsung WEP500 Bluetooth Headset is invented by its manufactures to take a place of honor between the best and the most comfortable gadgets, as we have today great difference of technical novelties. Samsung’s headset is smaller then even tiny Motorola’s H9 Miniblue that was named the smallest earlier before. It makes a quarter from the size of Motorola’s headset and is capable to contain best of the technologies that are invented nowadays to satisfy whimsical buyers. It’s a question first of all about noise canceling technology, thanking to which we get perfect sounds reproduction as a result.

Two microphones that the WEP500 Bluetooth Headset has are located each on its place – one at the bottom part of the headset, another under the main button. By the way, the multifunctional main button perfectly settles down in the centre of the headset and is very easy to use – the only pressing allows you quick access to the standard functions. I can allocate some of them: answering and ending the calls, voice regulating, redialing and rejecting the calls, mute call function, hold function and many other. It perfectly approaches to any smartphone or phone which has Bluetooth invented technology. Fantastic sound quality will probably impress you in combination with noise cancellation and echo-reducing technologies. The WEP500 comes with a charging case that is portable.

However, this ideal headset at first sight has also its lacks. It is connected with not absolutely successful placement of the main button. It could be easy hooked in the process of conversations that could lead to undesirable consequences. The absence of the hook also strains some people. Charging isn’t possible without the case. And this nice headset won’t cost you cheap – 199.99 USD.

Saitek Cyborg 5.1 Headset concerns a category of the gadgets that will be very useful for gamers. This headset was represented by the firm as a peripheral for the PC and laptops. At the first sight there is nothing special in it. To enjoy the gaming and listening to the music you could use it without any doubt. The new technology invents inside the gadget a special integrated sound card for emitting and perception of the sounds of great quality.

First of all they suit you very nice and during your computer activity or free time spending. Fitting comfortable on your head, headphones won’t make you any troubles or inconveniences.

To connect to your PC you should have minimum 2 sockets free – for the headphones and for microphone. A noise-canceling microphone is an integral part of the headset gadget. It is also pleasant on touch that makes it very cool especially when you are listening your favorite music files. Headset includes habitual functions that are connected with volume control mute functions and stereo characteristics for the usual headphones. Besides it has negative sides – the buttons are clumsy at the first sight. Unfortunately the headphones are intended to work well but we hope the next versions will be developed as well.

As these headphones are developed first of all for gaming you could use it with this purpose resorting to the help of built in 6 drivers. Enjoy 5.1 version capabilities. Besides you could simply listen to the music. However you could not be so pleased with headset’s cheap plastic that is quite easy to damage. But its sound qualitative characteristics eclipse headphone’s lacks.

The most gadgets we meet and read about, the most choice we have. Nowadays we nearly are lost among huge amount of different novelties and devices where one is better than another. So the main purpose they are intended to is to make our life easy and convenient. As to handsfree gadgets, I should say they completely change the general understanding of everyday activity, because of their quite beautiful performance and perfect portable capabilities they do for us.

Motorola’s H700 Bluetooth Handsfree Headset isn’t an exception. It enters into the group of those gadgets that are recommended for usage and are full of utility features. Attractive design makes first general impression of excellent characteristics. Nevertheless it is not only general effect. So the headset includes wall and car charger and user’s guide. The quick start helper will prompt you the main things to setup the headset for the easy and pleasant conversations. It is carried out only in 4 passes. Standard buttons perfectly approach to understand the main gadget’s features: volume regulating – up and down accordingly, call answering or ending. One more remarkable thing is that microphone acts also as one of the buttons on the headset. USB mini cable is not only an accessory to the gadget; it is used first of all for recharging the headset. By the way recharging is done in less than 30 seconds.

One of the mostly liked possibilities of the gadget is its comfortable wearing. The cool ear hook made of plastic perfectly suits for both left and right ear. You could easy forget about its existence while driving the car, because of feeling of lightness during your activity. The only problem would be sunglasses sitting on your eyes. Enough good surprise is gadget’s sound quality. It is great without lie. You could hear the person you are talking with very clear and volume won’t bring you. 6 hours of talk time comfort are guaranteed you.

Retail price is 79.99 USD and you could find good proposals at Amazon which price is 37.92 but this offer is for the headset only.

iVoice Baby-ai Bluetooth Headset belongs to those gadgets that really impresses very much. From the very name of the device we find that it is small enough in its sizes assuming nevertheless existence of different accessories that completely will suit to everyone. This says about the fact that manufactures have provided human’s factor what is connected with different people and their various desires and wishes.

One of the most important things I like mostly is charger represented in two necessary types – wall and car chargers are included here. As I’ve mentioned, headset includes 2 sizes of ear hooks and 3 of ear gel pillows. There is nothing from the fantasy world what is connected with headset’s usage. It’s simple and convenient. The only button placed in the centre of device functions as usual – it is intended for call answering and finishing conversations. Two volume buttons completely supplement the headset’s capabilities that are connected with volume control. The Baby-ai will declare the number of the person’s callings.

Comparing with Motorola, Jabra and other headsets, Baby-ai headset has the same call quality and sound transformations. Clear voice and hearing are provided. There are no beep annoying sounds when the battery is discharged and when you are at a distance from your phone. Using it, you’ll feel only silence and pleasure.

From my point of view, Baby-ai is a usual compact headset that hides nothing special from the point of view of main characteristics. It will serve you for a long time if you use it daily. It will cost you 89.99 USD.

The latest headset that has drawn the most attention for buyers is German Ultrasone headphones. A unique super-qualitative and marvelous design represents general gadget’s great features. Exterior surface is covered with a ruthenium metal that makes the headphones looking smooth and shining. Except the attractive mirror base Ultrasone headphones hide not less attractive ear cups which coverage is perfectly dressed with Ethiopian sheepskin making them pleasant on a touch and wearing. The plugs are plated with the gold that doesn’t make this headset cheap – it will cost you 1500 USD.

A new built in S-Logic Plus technology developed by the Ultrasone Company assumes new decisions in a headset workings out. It supposes reproduction of natural sounds without any incoming noises and hindrances. Enhanced sound quality allow to the listener listening the music or other sounds with audio detail accuracy. Frequency possibilities fluctuate from 6 Hz to 42 kHz. This means that you’ll not get any of the sound distortion. Bringing you quality and comfort, Ultrasone headphones would be valuable for you not only in the sense of price. If you attempt to get pleasure separately in your own room, quite music and presence of Ultrasone headset will help you to achieve this high.

If you are still doubt in getting and using this device because of its not economical feature, I will tell you about one more interesting characteristic. S-Logic tech supposes also reducing 40% of unlikable sound pressure that sometimes irritates us. It is a great pass forward in the gadget’s development, considering that fact the other headphones worsen hearing by beating on the ear drums.

Making conclusions, I want to notice about the fact that Ultrasone headphones combine two really annoying things – elegant design and supplementing it high-quality features. Thus the Company risks taking the leading positions in the market and winning popularity between buyers. Definitely it is one of the best gadgets between headset devices.

When you are looking for something special from the gadget’s novelties, you would be probably glad and satisfied when you find at last all you need. Besides, after pleasure you’ve got, sometimes disappointment appears because the common view doesn’t correspond the main characteristics that the device has.

In the case with BlueAnt Z9i Bluetooth Headset I should say that its external design fully supplements its features and even more – it represents them as a good owner of the qualitative size, weight and functionality. Compared with the other headsets BlueAnt Z9i is enough small. However, it is doesn’t stir it to be named “remarkable and excellent”. Everybody could wear it without any inconvenience and feeling of discomfort. Its features are perfectly accompanied with great quality of emitted sounds, volume regulation and well connectivity the devices it is used with.

Gadget’s developers invented into this beautiful and compact thing two interesting modes that are intended for voice isolation. It assumes switching between this two working modes concerning voice regulation and controlling the noise escaping. I’ve found in it another good possibility – long lasting battery life. Using BlueAnt Z9i you get from 3 to 5 hours of talk time and nearly 5 days of standby time. Also you wouldn’t have problems with the recharging battery very often. A few hours would be enough to do this operation. The main button will show you this because it flashes blue when the recharging operation is finished. By the way, a USB cord is intended special for charging from the computer. Lightweight and flexible, it allows perfect sound quality and good connection compatibility. The present “wind reduction” technology works according to the purpose to cancel any of the unlikable noises. I couldn’t notice unusual design features, but you could easy distinguish it from the other devices by the BlueAnt inscription at the end of the ear hook, which also is comfortable used for both left and right ears while wearing. As to another functions of the headset, they are usual and familiar to us: call dialing, redialing, rejecting, etc.

Gamers from all over the world will be happy to receive an ideal headset for their gaming experience. Creation of such headset is not an easy task, and electronic gadgets manufacturers try to solve the problem using new technologies. Tritton Company produced their AX Pro on the basis of the earlier model - Tritton AX360. The new gadget was innovated and added new technical features.

The design of the headset is quite standard: there are adjustable headphones that are covered in a gray, glossy plastic. Under the left ear cup you can find the detachable microphone. Moreover, for the separation of front, center, rear, and subwoofer audio streams there are four drivers in each ear cup. The headset features an in-line volume adjuster in the wire of the left ear cup. Xbox 360 controller is connected from here and after it you can adjust the microphone volume as you wish. The headset comes with soft, cloth-covered earpads and an extra pair of spare leather-cushioned pads. You will need to choose the pair that suits you better. However, the headphones are quite heavy, and gamers will feel its weight during long game-play.

The technical specifications of the AX Pro Headset are:
• It features 5.1 Surround Sound
• It works with Xbox, Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, and PC gaming
• It is compatible with devices that has a digital optical or 3.5mm analog 5.1 outputs
• It has microphone mute switch and volume control for game chat
• It features Dolby Digital and Dolby Prologic
• Noise canceling and sound isolation technology
• Excellent sound possibilities
The sound of the headset is beyond expectation: you will hear all the details of the game and experience its reality. The headset has many wires and if you do not like it, you will not be comfortable enough using it.

The advantages of the headset are: good sound quality, it is compatible with most gaming consoles; it may be used for chatting.
The shortcomings are: the headset is quite heavy, it needs a lot of wires, it doesn't operate with the Wii, and headphones require power.

Plantronics Discovery 655 represents simple updating of the previous version of the firm. However the new model brings its innovations and amendments with enhanced design and optimized complete set. It occupies place of honor in the class of headset gadgets. Having an extended shape it successfully comes to the end with a little microphone that allows you contact with ears.

The main functions of the garniture are being controlled by the main button, that allows answering/finishing the calls, switch off/on of the device, call’s redialing and activating of sound set. Additional buttons on the surface help you to control volume of the sounds and it isn’t any efforts to use them thanks to the acting relief arrows. As well as the majority of same gadgets Plantronics Discovery 655 uses DSP technology for transmitting crystal clear voice in a best way and escaping noises and echoes as much as possible. Its lightweight makes only 9 grams. It very easy recharges from your PC and includes the innovative charging pocket. It is the most appreciate accessory of the headset. It is intended to fix the device on clothes. Mini-USB socket’s mission consists in connection for recharging the device and fastens to the headset with the help of special clip. Thus the Plantronics Discovery 655 is compatible with new models of Motorola phones and different smartpnones and communicators of the new era. Cylindrical adapter is just that device which function consists in recharging the device from AAA lithium ion battery that is also included in the set. A comfortable ear loop is a very useful thing to fix the gadget reliably on the ear but you could also use the garniture without it.

I should notice that this device works enough well with the most phones and provides high quality sound. Easy to operate and comfortable for wear it approaches for business activity and road walks. We can blame to it that this headset doesn’t support usage of multiple devices at once. It is checked up on experience that Plantronics Discovery doesn’t tires your ears thanks to its design and lightweight. As to gel ear tips, the device includes 3 such of them. Choose the best size for you by your wish.

Jabra’s headsets win everybody’s attention. It happens so because of usability, stability and flexibility they bring to us. Jabra’s BT8010 new wireless Bluetooth stereo headset is created beyond the usual understanding of the headset gadgets and enters new ideas into the various world of new technical devices. To understand it we should learn little things about it.

It looks very usual and simple at the first sight and it even functions in a standard mode. Mono earpiece in the easiest way connects to your phone or other devices to feel good communication transactions and enjoy talking during a day. But there is also a surprise in it – it comes with an additional second earpiece that allows you listening to the music as you mostly like! It transforms into a usual headset for choosing musical compositions from your phone’s library. Long talk time is another characteristic of the device that made it enhanced comparing with the other gadgets from the same sphere. Thus it takes part of the latest wireless headsets from the mobile technologies. DSP (Digital Signal Processing) cancels all the incoming noises and echoes and thus the sound became clear.

Jabra BT8010 Bluetooth Headset has in its structure large and comfortable OLED display for viewing. Blue text on the black background allows the best perception for the eyes of all displayed functions: volume or battery level, caller ID or phone/music working mode. You could store 30 contacts here and review the latest 15 calls that were incoming lately. It also includes control buttons for music reproducing and answer or ending the calls. Oh, if you ready for listening to your music collection just connect the second earpiece and enjoy it! It skillfully joins via 14-inches USB cable. Play, pause, volume and track rewind functions will help you in choosing the options you mostly like.

Jabra’s BT8010 Headset acts directly from mobile phones or music players. Multipoint connection that is invented here allows connecting to two devices simultaneously be it PC or mobile phone, or even music player. 6 hours of music listening, 10 hours of talk time and 300 hours of standby time are those features which make the headset one of the best.

The set includes USB cable, AC charger, user manual, mono and stereo earpiece.

Nearly every headset is similar to another, and it’s not a great surprise. Headsets are being constructed similar because of the task that is imposed to them. It consists in comfortable wearing, portability and convenient placing near the ear. A new headset represented to our look – Sony Ericsson HBH-GV 435 – a very interesting invention at first sight. Extravagant wireless Bluetooth is represented in an unusual shape – we could notice big difference of this headset and the other devices, because most of headsets are equipped with long and inconvenient microphones. Perfect design supposes placing the microphone closer to the ear that allows avoiding for a microphone adjoining near to the mouth. It became Sony Ericsson’s novelty among the latest achievements in technical area. Digital Signal Processing (DSP) is technology that is supported by the Bluetooth headset. First of all it escapes all the noises and strange sounds from the user’s hearing that makes it more comfortable and popular between customers. The best sound quality is also offered by manufactures. The Bluetooth uses version 2.0 of sound technology.

Sony Ericsson device includes the next parts:
- Sony Ericsson HBH-GV 435 (the headset itself that hasn’t so easy code mane to remember);
- User manual for the easiest way to understand what should we do with the gadget;
- Accessory’s charger;
- Neck strap for the best portability;

The neck strap is not so convenient to fit the neck because of its enough extended length. But you might mot use it if you don’t feel necessity in it. The neck strap imposes restrictions on person’s movement while working. Comparing this accessory of the device I should notice the best solutions in Nokia’s and Bluespoon’s workings out. They are supplied with the Plug&Play technology that permits them to attach and detach very easy and connecting in a best way to any mini-USB port. Another lack of the garniture is that its command keys are located not so comfortable as it necessary. In the whole its time working consists 8 hours of talking and 300 hours of waiting. The weight is only 18 grams!

People, who go every day to work on buses and subway, will understand me: the road is so long and the only thing we can do in these overcrowded places is to listen to music. That’s why choosing a wireless headset is a vital issue. Sony, the most well-known producer of electronic gadgets, launched its DR-BT160IK Active Style Wireless Stereo Headset namely with this purpose.

The headset features a quite ordinary behind-the-neck design, it has a band which goes over the top of the ear. The problem appears with the size of ear buds, for people who have smaller ears will have troubles with the adjustment of the headset. The Bluetooth power and control modules are placed behind each ear. At the left side of the headset there are the battery and a port for charging, and such control buttons as pairing button, call-answer key, and joystick, which regulates the volume and can be used to pause or play music, are placed at the right side.

The technical specifications of the Sony DR-BT160IK Headset are:
• It features a built-in Bluetooth 2.0 EDR technology
• Bluetooth profiles: Headset Profile (HSP) , Hands Free Profile (HFP) , Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) , Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP)
• It has a built-in microphone
• There is included a Bluetooth audio transmitter
• It is iPod compatible and has an iPod adapter
• Its functioning range is 33 feet
• Its frequency response is 6-23,000Hz

The Sony DR-BT160IK Headset is ideal for wireless music streaming; the sound quality is great even at being 33 feet from the source. Moreover, when you listen to music it stops to let you answering the incoming call. However, if the headset is appropriate for music listening, the sound quality during calls is not good. So, for people who need a headset not only for music, but for talking as well, Sony DR-BT160IK would not be best variant.

Thus, the shortcomings of the headset are: bad call quality, size of the ear buds, the neckband is not adjustable, and it is quite expensive.
The advantages are: good wireless music sound quality, Bluetooth technology, soft construction for a flexible and comfortable fit.

Philips continues to amaze its clients: being a world-renowned manufacturer of electronic gadgets and accessories, it launched an exclusive and unique Bluetooth headset with a strange name – Tapster. However, the name is not meaningless in this case.

This headset has a range of outstanding characteristics, but its most unique feature is that you can control your Tapster by tapping or some touches. It is possible, that the name originated from these possibilities of the headset. For instance, if you have to adjust the volume, you have to knock along the ear once with your finger. Additionally, if you want to switch from music in order to answer a phone call, the only thing you have to do is to tap yourself on the ear. Thus, the Tapster Headset allows you to move between music and incoming calls without missing anything. However, the ear buds of the Tapster are bigger than of other headsets and this may cause discomfort in usage, but there are three sizes of ultra-soft silicon ear buds, so you may choose the one that fits your ear.

The technical specifications of the headset are:
• It has FullSound™, a digital audio algorithm patented by Philips, which eliminates surrounding noise while playing music
• The sound during calls is enhanced by EverClear that filters noise
• It features the Angled Acoustics design for adjusting the angle of the speaker tube to provide for clear sound and a comfortable fit
• Standby time is 150 hours or 7 hours of playtime and talktime each
• It works with Bluetooth HSP (Handset Profile) and HFP (Handsfree Profile)
• It is compatible with any Bluetooth device that has the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile
• It has such standard features as call acceptance, rejection, voice dial and redial

This gadget will be released in the nearest future and for sure will gain customers due to its uniqueness and attractiveness.

Headsets have already flooded the electronic market, for they are widely used and therefore companies produce them in big quantities. The majority of newly appeared headsets have the same characteristics as their predecessors, but some of them have innovative features. iVoice Baby-ai Headset is not an exception.

Concerning the design of the headset, I may say that it resembles the already existing BlueAnt Wireless X3 micro. The dimensions of iVoice Baby-ai are: 1.7 inches long by 0.8 inch wide by 0.7 inch thick. It is somewhat bulkier that other headsets, but it is still comfortable to wear. Another interesting feature of its design is that the headset features a round multifunction button which is rounded up by the volume controls. The button which controls the decrease is on the top and the volume increase button is underneath. Such button arrangement is not very comfortable, and the volume buttons are a little bit small. The in-ear earpiece fits securely inside the ear. Additionally, the headset comes with several earbud covers, so you may choose the one that fits your ear perfectly. Two flexible ear hooks, which can be adjusted for either ear, are included in the set. You can use the headset without the ear hook, but it is recommended to wear it with the one to be sure it will not fall down.

The technical specifications of the iVoice Baby-ai Headset are:
• It features multipoint technology, i.e. using iCONNECT 2 technology you can connect it to two mobile phones simultaneously
• It has three different charging options: the Car Charging Adaptor, USB cable for computer and wall charger
• Its talk time is 6 hours and the standby time is up to 8 days (200 hours)
• I-Voice Technology for noise cancellation
• It has voice prompts
• Automatic volume adjustment
• Standard features: call answering, ending, and rejecting; redial the last number, voice dial, etc.

The sound quality of the headset is great, even in noisy environments. The headset blocks the unwanted noise, but the voice sometimes sounds robotic.

However, there are some shortcomings: volume buttons are small, and you will not be able to wear glasses using the headset.

Headsets are extremely popular nowadays, for the majority of them offer noise-canceling technologies and they let your hands free. Gamers are highly interested in headsets, because their usage permits them to feel the reality of the game they play. Able Planet, a renowned manufacturer of innovative audio and communication devices, created its PS500MM Headset especially for gamers.

The design of the PS500MM Headset is modest: it is made of a black matte plastic with an adjustable headband. The ear cups are small, and this causes discomfort for you will need time to adjust the headset on your head in order to feel yourself comfortable wearing it. A padded faux-leather is used to cover the ear cups and for the headband there was used similar soft material. Volume button, microphone mute switch, and a clip for attachment to your clothes are on the headset's cord. The headset is lightweight and it comes with a case if you need to take it with yourself going somewhere.

The technical specifications of the Able Planet PS500MM Headset are:
• The PS500MM is a wired headset
• It uses Linx Audio technology for sound enhancement and improvement
• It features a USB dongle
• It has a Stereo Sound Output Mode

The most important characteristic of the PS500MM Headset is that it features Able Planet's patented LINX AUDIO(TM) technology. The sound quality of the headset is great due to the usage of this technology. The excellent noise cancellation performance is achieved thanks to Linx Audio. Moreover, the headset provides for a clear and natural acoustic details even being played at very low levels. You will not need to raise the volume range above the first notch when you listen to music, play a game, or watch a movie, because you will be able to hear all sound details even at this level.

However, there are disadvantages as well. The first complaint concerns the size of era cups – they could be made a little bigger. If you use the USB dongle, be aware that it can confuse PC about how it should output audio. Additionally, the microphone cannot be tucked away.

The headset has many advantages that outshine its shortcomings. Excellent sound performance, light weight, comfort in usage are worthy of the price.

Unique design, excellent sound quality and exceptional convenience in use – these are the main characteristics of new Plantronic’s 925 Headset that had already been let out to the public. It hasn’t any analogue between mobile’s accessories and brings new technical discovery at the headset’s world. Revolutionary V-frame design of the novelty forces heart to fight more often starting with its general view. This decision of new design has allowed bringing the microphone closer to the mouth corner, so it provides the best clearness of the sound heaving kept thus minimal weight and general easiness of the headset.

AudioIQ is a built in technology that is realized in the gadget. This technology processes the incoming and outgoing sounds and minimizes strange and unlikable noises and sounds. The result is that clarity of the voice and clearness of the sounds remain the best ones. Simultaneously, it regulates the sound on the headset’s dynamic automatically. Thus the loudness of the signal became optimal for the user in the surrounding conditions. Another invented technology is so called Multipoint technology that supposes adjusting two devices functioning at the same time. Switching between them is realized by the only pressing the button.

I should notice that Bluetooth has the easiest weight between all the Plantronics invented devices, weighting only 8 grams. Special form of the ear bud allows easy use and it is made of special gel that makes the gadget soft and comfortable. Reliable holder is also the considerable part of headset.

The main technical parameters are:
- 5 hours of talk time;
- 7 days of standby time;
- Multipoint and AudioIQ technologies;
- Loudness regulating possibility;
- 8 g of weight;
- 10 meters of maximal range for communication stability;

After you've installed TuneUp and logged in / registered, you'll notice it has 4 tabs : Clean, Cover Art, Now Playing, and Concerts.

Clean Tab:
Drag and drop 'dirty' tracks from iTunes onto TuneUp to start cleaning them. What qualifies as a 'dirty track'? Anything with missing metadata or artwork.
On average, TuneUp will correctly identify about 85-90% of your music library. Here are a few strategies to quickly find your most troublesome tracks:

- Sort by track name, artist, or album and then scroll to songs that are missing that information
- Search for tracks labeled "Track", "Untitled" or "Various"
- Switch to cover flow/grid view and drag anything that's missing cover art into TuneUp

"Matches" are 99% correct. "Likely Matches" are 80-90% correct on average. For each album, click the drop down arrows at left to see a track-listing and album art options.
Not sure about the song’s original info? Click the play button next to a track to hear it and see its original info in iTunes.
When you're happy with it, hit save.

Cover Art Tab:
Cover Art displays possible matches for every song missing cover art in your library.
Hit save next to any cover art you want to keep.
Click an album to see 4 possible matches, select your favorite one, then hit save in the top box to save that cover to your album.

Now Playing:
Now Playing presents the web’s best content for any playing track. Find your favorite song in iTunes and hit play; TuneUp automatically displays related music videos from YouTube (click the video play button to watch them within TuneUp), upcoming local concerts by that artist, artist news, Amazon song and album recommendations, and eBay merchandise.

Concerts:
Use concerts to see which bands in your collection are coming to town and buy tickets to the show.

Additionally, TuneUp has analyze, undo, and purchasing functionality, but the simple steps above are the easiest way to get on your way to a much cleaner music collection...
