New headset boosts Nokia’s NFC accessory line-up

MONTE CARLO, Monaco – Nokia today launched the Nokia BH-310, an NFC Bluetooth headset designed specifically for people who spend a lot of time in their cars.

It’s extremely ergonomic, has amazing audio quality and can of course be paired with your NFC smartphone with just a single tap.

With two microphones and Digital Signal Processing, the Nokia BH-310 has superior noise suppression and echo cancellation – making sure you can hear and be heard despite any background noise.

Fast charging, long stand by time and a complete in car calling set means that there’s no hassle if you make frequent journeys. And with Nokia’s  “Always Ready” feature you can answer calls by simply picking up the BH-310 from the holder, and end them automatically when you put the headset back.

Nokia now has a wide range of NFC headsets and speakers, so you can connect to your smartphone with just a single tap. Here are just a few examples:

Nokia Play 360°

As the name suggests, the Nokia Play 360° is omnidirectional, filling your surroundings with sound in every direction. You can connect to the Nokia Play 360° using NFC for easy Bluetooth pairing or a standard 3.5 mm audio connector.

The Nokia Play 360° recently won the coveted red dot design award for 2012. Red dot is an international professional design award for design concepts, ideas and prototypes. Last year more than 230 companies competed for the award from 54 countries.

Nokia BH-221

The NFC-enabled Nokia Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-221 has bass and treble boost, and a single line OLED display to show you which radio channel you’re listening to, volume level and other key information. 

It also comes with a built-in FM radio.

The Nokia Essence Bluetooth Stereo Headset uses special active noise cancellation technology to eliminate an unprecedented 99.8% of background noise – delivering pure, high-fidelity sound no matter how noisy the surroundings. Simply tap to connect your NFC-enabled smartphone.

Nokia Luna

The Nokia Luna is an eye-popping NFC Bluetooth Headset that comes in a host of bright colours and has a striking two-piece design.   

The Luna also has Headset Profile 1.1 advanced multipoint, which means that you can attach two different phones to the headset – for work and personal use, for example.
