MANCHESTER, UK – 6th October, 2009 – Bluenext, a company based in the UK and renowned as the pioneer of Bluetooth hands-free products, announces the launch of BlueNEXT B2 - the World's first Bluetooth headset that combines Audio Caller ID and Noise Cancellation double Mic solution.

Noise Shield B2 Communicating on the mobile phone in a noisy environment is no more an obstacle and using a headset is the most comfortable way to go. The BlueNEXT B2 delivers the best overall performance in Noise Elimination, employing the latest technology to minimise external noise interference.
The BlueNEXT B2 is the most effective headset available on the market in eradicating environmental sound disturbance, achieved through its ability to accurately separate Near-field Voice (speech) from Far-field Noise (ambient noise). B2 technology provides a clear distinction between internal human dialogue and external ambient noise. Numerous factors contribute to the B2's significant upgrade of audio quality; most importantly, the combination of its Highest Signal to Noise Ratio Improvement (SNRi), and Dual Microphones with DSP, that serves to remove background noise whilst supplying precise voice recognition. The voice sounds natural and highly audible, ensuring optimal sound quality for the listener.
TTS Technology provides the finishing touch to the most complete headset features package
The BlueNEXT B2 is a unique Bluetooth headset which guarantees the best Voice Recognition Performance - both Voice Dialling and Voice Commands in 90dB noise. The headset boasts numerous features including voice prompts, missing call alerts, and multipoint functionality - the capability to simultaneously connect to two Bluetooth-enabled devices. In addition to the standardised set of features, which includes the capacity to answer and reject calls, last number redial, call mute, battery status and the option to interchange calls between headset and phone, B2 pioneers the latest ‘must-have feature' – Audio Caller ID. Facilitated by TTS (Text To Speech) technology, B2's Audio Caller ID functionality enables the user to receive the caller's number directly from the headset. This brand-new feature benefits the user through its ability to announce the ID of incoming calls, allowing the user to effectively manage his/her contacts.
Minimalist yet stylish design, with comfortable fit The two-tone black and silver BlueNEXT B2 is a practical yet sleek model. Despite its minimalist design, it represents a stylish and sophisticated Bluetooth headset with a comfortable fit.
Equipped with a triangular ear-rubber (that has 3 air cushion points) and adjustable ear-loop, the user is able to adjust the fit for the each individual ear, guaranteeing maximum comfort.
The B2 proves easy to charge, and pairs with the mobile phone without complication; furthermore, it offers a straightforward manual control via buttons.
The BlueNEXT B2 headset comes sealed in a charming container reminiscent of a box that holds precious jewellery. Courtesy of its sophisticated design, colour scheme and packaging, the B2 will appeal to style-conscious men and women alike.
Product Availability and Price The BlueNEXT B2 Headset will be available to order online for £49.99 at www.b2.bluenext.co.uk as of November, 2009. From October 5th, 2009 the BlueNEXT B2 will be available to purchase from high street retail stores and online sellers.
