14 DAY TRIAL // It appears that the Customer Electronics Show was not only a good place to find new phones, but mobile phone accessories as well, such as Bluetooth headsets or headphones.
The Motorola S9 Bluetooth Active headphones, introduced at ED Zander's CES Keynote, are stylish and extremely comfortable, due to the behind-the-head shape and small 1.3 cm ear buds that target the athletes out there, as well as the people that are always on the move.
The headphones enable the user to enjoy the freedom of wireless music, with the help of cutting-edge Bluetooth wireless technology. In order to provide the best wireless musical experience, the headphones weigh barely 1.14 oz, which is just as much as an average pair of sunglasses, and they are water and sweat resistant.
According to Motorola, the headphones are so lightweight that users might even forget they are wearing them. Users can listen to their favorite tunes by staying connected to a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone with A2DP support. When the user has an incoming call, the music will mute or pause and will resume when the call ends, therefore providing the easiest way possible to switch between music and the phone.
The headphones also feature touch sensitive controls on the headband that also enable the user to manage music and calls while on the move. They measure 126 x 130 x 48 mm and can be charged through a Mini USB connector. The outside of the headphones only comes in black, while the user can choose between red and black for the inner part of the S9.
Motorola's Bluetooth MOTOACTV Headphones S9 will be available in the first half of 2007. There is no information regarding the price so far.
