Product of the Week:


Nokia Purity Pro Wireless Headset by Monster

I'm increasingly living off my cellphone and using it to enjoy music and video, which means my battery life is generally pretty bad. Thanks to Nokia & Monster I'm currently using a Nokia 920, which has a ton of it - it's a big phone. Listening to music using earbuds or a typical cellphone headset isn't a great experience, particularly on a trip or Long distance journey. Pairing a new headset is also a pain, and most of the headsets you get for Smartphone devices are either wireless or noise-canceling -- not both.

Nokia with Monster created a really nice headset that I've been using for a couple of a month, the Purity Pro. It comes in bright colours black, cyan, red, white and yellow -my favourite colour is red -- matching the colors of the 920.
Two things make it very differently amazing from other headsets. It is both wireless and noise canceling, so you can use it on a plane, crowded places and not get tangled up in the wires, which I seem to always do on a station. In addition, it uses NFC to pair with your phone, and it demonstrated one of the fastest pairing experiences I've ever had.
The only issue I had with the headset was I couldn't find the off switch. Turns out you turn it off automatically when you fold it and on when you unfold it. I like well-designed products that solve a problem I'm experiencing, and the Purity Pro headset does that, so it's my product of the week. Oh, and it sounds damn good as well. Nicely done!
You can even have it too at £269.99 on amazon.com
