Although the first generation iPhone supported Bluetooth headsets in 2007, I feel that the technology is only now making its way into the mainstream market.
A lot of factors have contributed to the acceptance of these hands-free devices, among the reasons, the most probably are: 1) it’s against the law to talk on your cellphone/mobile device directly and 2) the earpieces have gotten smaller more stylish.
Now fast forward to 2009. With the release of iPhone OS 3, Bluetooth support on the iPhone is better than ever (namely Stereo Bluetooth) and there is a whole slew of devices available to the consumer.
Today’s unboxing will focus on a product which I’ve been watching for a long time. I didn’t originally take the plunge because of the product’s high entry point ($130), but looking back, spending money on cheaper headsets was just frustrating and a wast of time.
In any case, here’s my unboxing video of Aliph’s Jawbone Prime with NoiseAssassin 2.0 – that’s marketing speak for Aliph’s noise reduction technology which is supposed to let listeners on the other end of the call hear you and not the background noise.
Watch and enjoy the unboxing and be sure to watch this space for the follow-up review.
