Sam&Jonny have taken to crowdfunding website Kickstarter to bring to life a new bone-conduction Bluetooth headset that offers exceptional noise-cancelling and high audio quality.
This bone-conduction Bluetooth headset is waterproof and is fitted with a detachable external mic that lets you switch between headphones to business headset with ease. For situations where you only need to listen, you can remove the external mic and just use the built-in version to keep out outside noise. Meanwhile, the inclusion of a large bone conduction speaker and titanium-plated air conduction speakers ensure exceptional sound quality and wearer comfort. What's particularly important is that the design ensures a comfortable fit for long sessions of headset-wearing in any environment.
These headphones can be reserved for pledges starting at around $49, which represents approximately a 50 percent discount on the planned eventual retail price.
