Celebrities know that their names are also a brand for making money and Jay-Z is no different. Today we see another product that’s branded with Jay-Z; this is the Motorola MOTOROKR S7-HD Bluetooth headset.

Hands on with the Jabra JX20 Pura headset

Over the past few years I have had a number of Bluetooth headsets, some I am too embarrassed to mention. Now I have had the chance to put something with a bit more quality in my ear. The earpiece that I am reviewing today is the Jabra JX20 Pura, this earpiece has been designed by Jacob Jensen.

It was just two years ago when Jabra wowed us with their JX10, this headset was small and elegant. Jabra has done it yet again with the JX20. From the moment I started to remove the Jabra JX20 Pura from the box, I could tell that although it was light the quality of the build was remarkable. You really have to hold one of these Bluetooth headsets in your hands to get an idea of just how light it is

Jawbone II Bluetooth Headset: less battery life

Jawbone II is the second generation Bluetooth headset from the company, it is smaller than the old model as well as lighter and offering improved sound quality. On first glance Jawbone II looks all set to be a winner.

The first Jawbone was loved as it was simple in design, it did not rely on flashy looks. The old model was thin and sexy yet still managed to stay functional; you would have been mistaken for thinking that it was a piece of ear jewelry.

Many people still moaned that the Jawbone was still too heavy; this has led to the smaller lighter jawbone II. This is the same device, but smaller and does not have a huge ear hook like the old model. The Jawbone II is 50% smaller.

This Bluetooth headset is smaller and that comes at a price, as the battery life is a lot less. Expect to get 7 days standby and 4 hours talktime.

The Jawbone II will cost $130, for more information visit Yanko Design
