The era of hands-free telecommunications has long come. Today people can do better multitasking, their hands can do more aside from holding a cell phone or a microphone. With better microphones, the new Bluetooth headsets have paved the way for even better communication and easier.

So many features have been introduced to this wonderful piece of technology. One of the basic features of the Bluetooth headset is the microphone. The microphone is located in a Bluetooth headset may be the type of arm or the type of boomless. In this post, you can read the difference between the two and some of the different models of Bluetooth headset which contain both types of microphone.

The microphone is connected to the headset with a flexible joint that can be adjusted. The microphone is placed near the user’s mouth and can be bent close to or far from the mouth. This type of microphone is usually seen in the production of headsets used by telephone operators. However, there are now so many stylish headphones that will make you look more like a director or a singer at a concert rather than a telephone operator. Some models that have a Bluetooth headset boom microphone with a traditional style, not just include the Jabra FreeSpeak BT250, Jabra BT130, Motorola Bluetooth Wireless Headset H8910, Solteras Halo BTH headset, and Plantronics Voyager 510-USB Bluetooth Headset.

On the other hand, the microphone did not boomless flexible joint that bows to the user’s mouth. Instead, the microphone is placed on your headset. It will not be similar to an operator or a singer in a concert, but it may seem you are talking about you from afar, since the microphone is not visible enough. The models that have this type of headset microphone is included, the Epox BT-HS01, Sony Ericsson Bluetooth Headset HBH-65, Step 1150 Wireless Headset, Bluespoon Digital Bluetooth headset, and Cardo Scala 500 Bluetooth Headset.

Sony VAIO EC

Posted by on Friday, 4 February, 2011 No comments

sony vaio ec 300x199 Sony VAIO ECSpecifications:

  • Intel Pentium P6100 2.0GHz dual core processor
  • Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
  • 17-inch LED-backlit display (1600×900)
  • ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 (512MB)
  • 4GB DDR3 (1066MHz) system memory
  • 320GB hard drive (5400rpm)
  • Blu-ray player/DVD burner
  • Bluetooth (2.1 + EDR)
  • Ethernet: 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T
  • Wi-Fi: 802.11/b/g/n
  • Standard Capacity Lithium-ion Battery (5000mAh)
  • Dimensions: 16.1(W) x 1.2(H) x 10.7(D) inches
  • Weight: 7.3 pounds
  • Color: Lava Black

Build and Design
The Sony VAIO EC is a 17-inch mainstream and multimedia laptop from Sony. The E-series notebooks are the most affordable full-featured notebooks in the VAIO product line and you can probably argue that the “E” stands for “Economy class.” The laptop body is made of a combination of matte and polished black plastics. All of the plastics feel firm with creaking sounds when you apply pressure to the chassis. That said, given the size of the notebook, those plastics are spread out over such a large area that the notebook exterior bends and flexes under firm pressure. Despite this, we aren’t too concerned about the overall durability of the chassis … particularly since this is a desktop replacement that will rarely leave the your desk. The screen hinges offer enough resistance to hold the display in place yet aren’t so tensioned that opening the laptop is difficult.

The screen lid and notebook base are made of matte plastics while the palmrests and keyboard surround are covered in glossy black acrylic. The overall look is fairly understated, but the end result is a clean design. For better or worse, that’s the heart of the VAIO EC’s style: clean and simple. This notebook will fit in on your desk in your dorm room, your living room, or your office desk. Just don’t expect it to turn too many heads based on looks alone.

Users looking to upgrade or tweak the VAIO EC will find plenty to keep them happy once they look at the bottom of the notebook. Sony engineers were kind enough to include two access panels on the bottom of the chassis that allow you to replace the RAM or the hard drive with whatever you want. Our review unit came with 4GB of system memory (upgradeable to 8GB) and a slow 320GB hard drive (more on that later). Most performance-focused owners will probably want to add more RAM and a faster hard drive or solid state drive (SSD) after purchasing this notebook.

Ports and Features
Port selection on the VAIO EC is good but not great for a 17-inch notebook. The system has three USB 2.0 ports, one additional eSATA/USB combo port, a headphone and headset jack, VGA output, HDMI output, Ethernet, and both SDHC card and Memory Stick slots. Given that this is the same layout we’ve seen on the smaller VAIO EB and VAIO EA, we would have liked to see at least one USB 3.0 or even a FireWire port just to fill the unused space and make owners feel like they get more for the money.

Sony Bloggie Touch

Posted by on Friday, 24 December, 2010 No comments

Sony Bloggie Touch 300x264 Sony Bloggie TouchBUILD AND DESIGN
The Sony Bloggie Touch shoots 1920×1080 MP4 video at 30 fps via its Exmor CMOS sensor. It also shoots 720/60p and 720/30p and takes 12.8 megapixel stills through its f/2.8 wide angle lens.

The Sony Bloggie Touch comes in two models, one with 4GB of internal memory (good for about two hours of 720/30p video), which costs $180 at launch, and an 8GB model for $200, which can capture approximately four hours of the lowest resolution video.

I can’t state enough how closely the Bloggie Touch resembles an Android smartphone, even if it’s a bit smaller than the current crop of handsets. The front of the candy-bar shaped camcorder is slightly rounded and features a high quality brushed casing. The lens is situated at the top end, surrounded by a smooth silver plastic tip. I suppose the smooth area surrounding the lens is designed to warn users of any pending finger creep over the lens, and it works in that regard.

The large 3.0-inch display sits on the back of the Bloggie Touch, just above the record button.

The HDMI out, hidden in a small notch, and wrist-strap slot are on one side of the pocket camcorder, while the on/off button, stills-mode toggle button, and on-board mic are on the other side. The mic placement is a little perplexing though. It’s very easy to hold your finger over the mic without realizing it, which happened to me more than once. Sony should have at least added a little notch so users could identify the area by touch.

Two on-board speakers are located on the top of the Bloggie Touch, while the tripod receptacle and pop-out USB are on the bottom.

If there is any cause for complaint, it’s that both the touch screen and lens are very exposed and are almost begging for scratches. If you lay the Bloggie down on either the front or back, you’ll be resting the device on one of the two. Also, both the body and screen are fingerprint magnets. Expect much smudge build-up with prolonged use.

Apple iPod touch (Gen 4)

Posted by on Monday, 22 November, 2010 No comments

apple ipod touch 242x300 Apple iPod touch (Gen 4)BUILD & DESIGN

The new iPod touch is beautifully designed, as all Apple products are, with sleek lines and modern details. Unlike the iPhone 4, it isn’t at all boxy. It is remarkably thin and light, with strongly tapered edges. If you use the device “naked” you may not even remember it’s in your pocket — it really is that small.

With smartphones, they sometimes seem quite light… and then you notice that the battery is still in the box, so you are immediately disappointed with a light phone that almost instantly becomes a heavy “brick” in your pocket.. That isn’t the case here; the iPod touch is sealed so it comes fully assembled with the battery inside and it weighs just a few ounces.

The build quality is excellent, as you would expect from Apple. There is no creaking, bending, or flexing of any kind.

Display
The new Retina display on the iPod touch is absolutely gorgeous. I haven’t had the opportunity to see it side-by-side with a new iPhone 4 yet, so it’s hard to make direct comparisons. I can say that it is vastly superior to my old iPod touch. It is extremely sharp and clear, and much more readable outside in bright sunlight.

My photos look better than ever before, and video does too — amazingly sharp and clear. If you have an older iPod touch, you’ll see a huge difference in the display — the new Retina technology represents a great improvement.

This improvement isn’t really all that surprising, considering the screen resolution has gone from 320×480 to 640×960, but the display size hasn’t changed – it’s still 3.5 inches.

Keyboard
The iPod touch doesn’t have a physical keyboard, instead relying on a virtual keyboard for text entry.

It works well, but of course I have long experience with the old iPod touch so there’s nothing new for me here. I can say that typing is easier with the new model because it is fast enough to make the built-in word completion utility a pleasure to use instead of a pain.

It also lets you double tap on the shift key to enable Caps Lock, which I use all time time and am thankful to have. It’s a little thing, but it isn’t available on the original iPod Touch.

Will Sony PS4 GO Green?

Posted by on Sunday, 14 November, 2010 No comments

playstation4 winning concept6 300x224 Will Sony PS4 GO Green?Power consumption is also one of the key points that people always discuss lately. With “Go Green” being the buzzword at the moment, critics expect that Sony have to decide joining the Go Green revolution and promote a totally Green product in form of PS4, which will consume extremely low power level.

Something that Sony will have to make sure in PS4 would be substantial relief in terms of power sucking capability in their next generation gaming console. Everyone know the fact that PS3 is a big power sucker.

In fact, you might be shocked to know that if you just leave your PS3 switched on in idle state for a year, it would cost you $157! What a waste of energy, isn’t it?

On the other hand, it will be tough to handle heavy upgrades in an eco-friendly design, especially with no optical media in storage drive (assuming PS4 will be working online and games can be downloaded,  not being saved on Blu-Ray disks, DVD, or hard drive).

Therefore, it is only a sweet speculation, which looks pretty hard to be a reality. Nevertheless Sony will need to badly make sure that PS4 does not follow up in the line up for the most costly electronic appliances to run, even in idle mode or stand-by mode.

Microsoft’s X-Box 360 is also not too good as it would cost you $125 per year in idle, but Nintendo’s Wii is completely the opposite. It is estimated that Nintendo Wii will not cost you $15 each year, if in idle mode.

As result, the next generation Playstation and X-Box gaming consoles will certainly need to pay attention to power consumption, if they want to stay competitive with the next generation Wii.

Furthermore, if Sony does not do something about the power sucking character of PS3 and double the performance output in PS4, it would be certainly scary to imagine how much power PS4 will suck. You can also discuss this issue in Playstation 4 Forum.
