Samsung Bluetooth headsets


Samsung Mobile on Tuesday released a trio of Bluetooth headsets, including the WEP870, the WEP850 and the WEP470. The high-end WEP870 is a noise-canceling Bluetooth mono headset with music streaming capabilities. It can be paired with up to two Bluetooth handsets at the same time, and can be worn on either ear. It also ships with a stereo earbud lanyard that places the WEP870 around a user's neck, with the dual microphone pointed toward the mouth, still allowing for phone conversations.

The two microphones and active noise and echo cancellation aim to improve call quality, while the integrated LCD screen shows battery level, call status and Bluetooth connection status.

The WEP850 can also connect with up to two handsets at the same time, and has dual microphones with noise cancellation and echo reduction. The value-priced WEP470 has simpler noise cancelling technology and uses only one microphone. It has an LED battery level indicator and a power switch. All three headsets have earhooks that can be work on either ear.

All three Samsung headsets are now available, with the WEP870 priced at $90, the WEP850 at $70 and the WEP470 at $40.
