Bluetooth MP3 Sunglasses

Bluetooth MP3 Player

Last month we featured a pair of Bluetooth Sunglasses but this new device combines both a MP3 player and Bluetooth connectivity, and for around than half the price of the other pair for the top memory.

Built-in memory ranges from 128MB to 2GB, depending on how much music you want to listen to in your glasses, and battery life is 6 hours after a full charge. Like many in-car Handsfree kits, if you’re listening to the MP3 player and you get a call coming in then the MP3 will shut off and switch to your call. It plugs into your computer via USB and is compatible with the basic audio file formats; MP3/WAV/WMA. Price is a bit uncertain – but if you order in bulk you could get down to about $22 for the 2GB model.

Our thoughts? This product is quite a bit more bulky on the sides than the other pair we featured, and probably isn’t the same quality, but is a lot cheaper. It’s a toss up between MP3 and quality/style, but we recommend you go for the other pair.

Price: ~$22.00

Sunglasses with built-in wireless Bluetooth headset

Gizmo of the Day, Phones / By /

Okay, so we’ve all heard of those glasses made by Oakley that have a built-n MP3 player, but sunglasses with built-n wireless Handsfree over Bluetooth – is this just taking it one step too far? I don’t think so.

With a talk time of 3.5 hours and a standby time of 90 hours (rechargeable via internal battery) there’s just nothing comparable on the market – and all for under $50. The glasses themselves are quite stylish; probably as good as any other $50 pair of normal sunglasses you can get – they have a matt black finish with smoke mirrored lenses.

With a temperature range of -10C to 50C, you can use these pretty much anywhere in the world. Perhaps these will be next year’s skiing must have, that is if you think you can manage calling people whilst you’re coming down the slope at break-neck speed!

In conclusion, a good buy, as long as you don’t mind walking around looking like someone out of the Matrix. And, in all fairness, they’re not quite as good looking as your pair of D&G designer glasses. Another gadget that combines 2 of our daily necessities into one simple, stylish product. Nice.

Gimme!

#CES09: TriSpecs all-in-one sunglasses, headphones, Bluetooth headset

2 Comments / Audio/Video, Home Theater, CES, Gizmo of the Day, Miscellaneous, Phones, Portable / By /

This is a bit wonky, but TriSpecs thinks there’s a market out there for those who want what I’ll call integration of head-devices – sunglasses, stereo headphones, Bluetooth headset, and even power and volume controls for your MP3 player.

TriSpecs actually got together with a company called Step Labs to ensure that the audio quality is up to snuff and probably then some. It even has noise-cancellation, the ability to detect and switch between music and incoming phone calls. The lenses on the sunglasses are Zeiss Sola and are interchangeable.

Despite all of these high-tech and seemingly expensive components and materials, starting price is rumored to be around $200.
