i.Tech BluePRO Bluetooth Headset

30 Jul, 2007, 7:00 pm IST | by Shayne Rana | Headphones

Bluetooth, to put it eloquently, kicks ass when it comes to wireless transfer of any information. It's not new technology. It's been around for ages. But the accessories that have been and are being designed for this application are getting bigger and better. Wire-free is the way to be!

Design
To be brutally honest, the BluePRO's design concept is nothing new. It’s like any other headset you'd see anywhere else. But let me elaborate on what it does have that maybe normal headsets don't. Since this is a Bluetooth product that’s designed to be used primarily with A2DP compatible phones, it can also be used to take calls. There's a little mike that slides out from the bottom of the right earpiece.

The right earpiece is also the main control panel for all the functions. It has a remote control for selecting tracks or rewinding and forwarding. There’s also a 3 way scroll located at the bottom ridge of the right earpiece that can be used for increasing and decreasing the volume and the same wheel also doubles as a button for playing and pausing music.

A little above the volume scroll wheel on the same edge is a dual LED (blue and red) with a multifunction button or MFB. I’m not sure why it’s called that really since it seems to serve just a singular function of activating and pairing the device with another. The left earpiece houses the singular double ‘A’ battery pack.

The whole headset isn’t heavy at all at just 200g with dimensions of 165 x 56 x 208 mm and with its soft ear cushions it’s extremely comfortable to wear even for long durations. The earpieces swivel so it makes it a bit easier to carry.
