Plantronics Brings Hong Kong the Next Generation in Mobile Earpieces

Discovery 975 Bluetooth earpiece is now in Hong Kong.

Platronics recently announced the new 8-gram Discovery 975 Bluetooth earpiece which features AudioIQ2 DSP technology, two microphones and noise cancellation which works automatically whenever a conversation is detected around. The earpiece includes a 20-band equalizer, and an improved rechargeable carrying case which supposedly triples your talking time to 15 hours. The case also includes an LCD screen which shows the battery and earpiece charge levels.

It was recently reviewed and given an editor’s choice award by Cnet.

“The Plantronics Discovery 975 is a unique Bluetooth headset that features multipoint, voice prompts, and fantastic audio quality with good noise-canceling and wind-noise resistance. It has a much improved charging case with a battery status indicator.” – Cnet

1. a Ridley PRO PROPACK Fusion and Ballistic Nylon Designer Case specially designed for Discovery 975

Total gift value is HK$498. Also, you can be a member of Plantronics PriorityOne Membership Program. The Plantronics Discovery 975 Signature Edition is available from major Hong Kong retail stores from now, at a price of HK$1,098 each.

Plantronics held a press event in Hong Kong at the Four Seasons last week and here are some photos of the stunning models that were there to highlight the Discovery 975:

Slashnet is equally impressed with the Plantronics Discovery 975:

“You could talk for ages about … why we rate the Discovery 975 so highly, but the simplest explanation is that the Voyager PRO and Discovery 925 had a baby and it’s the new prodigal son. Combining the audio excellence of the Voyager PRO and the nifty charging-case of the Discovery 925. To be blunt, it’s as though Plantronics took our criticisms of the Voyager PRO – its bulk, its glasses-unfriendly hook and its overly businesslike appearance – and immediately set to work on a new headset that addressed each one….for everyday wear the design, style and ability of the new headset make it an excellent all-round performer.”
