Motorola H700 "Cosmic Blue" Now Available

Since its launch the Motorola H700 Bluetooth Headset has been one of my top 3 wireless headset choices because of its solid and elegant build, small and extremely pocketable size, comfortable wear, USB charging capabilities, great sound and innovative ‘PowerFlip’ which automatically switches the headset off as you fold the speaker when not in use.

The first H700 model offered a simple grey-silver-chrome design (above bottom left) which was soon followed by the grey-silver-gold chrome Limited Edition H700 Dolce & Gabbana (see my review).  Now Motorola has released an equally exclusive (read: limited supplies) ‘Cosmic Blue’ edition (above top) just in time for the release of the dark blue rubberized Treo 750 with which it matches beautifully.

As I mentioned earlier, the outstanding feature of all H700 models is without a doubt its proprietary “PowerFlip” technology which offers these unique benefits:

1. It conserves battery power as it automatically and completely turns off when closed (instead of remaining in ‘standby’ with other headsets)
2. It allows you to conveniently answer a call by simply flipping the boom open
3. It avoids the embarrassing issue of screaming at your callers while holding your Treo when the audio is actually being diverted to the headset… (see Silent Conversations With A Blueetooth Headset)
4. It helps to make the H700 one of the single most “pocketable” of any BT headsets

Personally, since blue is my favourite colour I’m delighted to finally see a headset that is not the plain old black or silver that nearly all other makes and models favour.  Naturally it also helps that the H700’s design, technology and performance are all excellent.

Treonauts are always looking for excellence…
