At CeBIT 2007 in Hanover, Germany Samsung Electronics showcased quite a large number of mobile phones as well as a high-class Bluetooth headset - WEP 420, designed by Bang & Olufsen. Visitors that entered the Samsung booth definitely had what to look at.

The WEP 420's buttons are hidden behind a sliding cover, in order for the device to be easy to use. Another advantage to the sliding cover is that it blocks static to increase the overall sound quality of the headset.

While size can be very important when it comes to a headset, high-quality sound is starting to be mandatory, and Samsung seems to be considerably improving its headsets.

The presentation of the headset isn't bad either. At purchase, it will come packaged with a uniquely designed charging cradle that can be used as an interior decoration item. With Bang & Olufsen having designed it, it is also clear that the headset is extremely stylish.

Along with the WEP 420, Samsung has also unveiled a Mini Bluetooth Headset, the WEP500 that comes in an extremely small package, with an innovative design composed of round shapes and easy-to-use features. Both of the manufacturer's latest Bluetooth headsets come with an elegant design and superb sound quality.

Samsung and Bang & Olufsen have worked together before on the 'Serene' mobile phone that received the spotlight from media worldwide with its stylish design and simple beauty. The Samsung WEP 420 will be available in March while the WEP 500 will be launched during the 2nd quarter of the year in Europe and Asia. No information regarding the price of the Bluetooth headsets has been revealed so far.
