Novero, known for its ultra-expensive lifestyle electronics and jewelry, has switched attention to subtler designs. The Germany-based company has submitted an FCC filing for a set of minimalist earphones. The Rockaway Bluetooth Headset is in a form-factor almost as small as the diameter of the ear canal itself.
Novero has introduced five ultra-expensive Bluetooth headsets that fall into its Victoria collection. Made with gemstones and precious metals, each is made using a technique called pavé, which means "to pave." All four devices differ in style and materials only, and have the same Bluetooth capabilities, though tech specs are not available.
Novero has recently unveiled its first and only consumer product, the aptly called TheFirstOne Bluetooth headset. It sports dual microphones, with noise-canceling and one-touch controls for placing calls or adding a third person into a conference call. Novero claims its Bluetooth headset has the best background noise filtering DSP technology of any device in its class. The device automatically pairs with Bluetooth phones that are discoverable and within range, while battery life is rated at 4.5 hours of talk time or 100 hours of standby.
