Captain Gadget

This Jaybird may just be singing your tune

Bluetooth headphones, have been with us for some time and by and large have fallen between two gadget stools. They either work well but look strange or they look great but don't work well, however the Jaybird 200i might just change all that.

The stereo bud headphones sit over the outer ear more comfortably than most, with the connecting cable running around the back of the head they are quite discreet in profi le. The sound quality is good although somewhat lacking in bass.

The Bluetooth connection works with most mobile phones and other devices, if your phone doesn't play music in stereo the earphones may be wasted on you.

One key feature that sets these earphones apart is the iPod/iPhone adaptor, included in the set at no extra cost. This adaptor alone reduces the risk of mugging as you are not wearing the telltale iphone white headphones. The sound reduction feature makes phonecalls in noisy locations a breeze. A good investment all round.
