Sony Ericsson HBH-PV710 Bluetooth headset slated for springBy Jennifer Hooker, 6 February 2007

The attractive Bluetooth headset will be released in two colors and boasts great battery life -- according to Sony Ericsson, at least.

The fashion-conscious Sony Ericsson HBH-PV710 Bluetooth headset will strut its stuff in pearlescent shades of red and brown. The headset isn't the smallest we've seen, at 2.4 by 1.7 inches, but its pen-like design with adjustable earloop definitely grabs attention. However, we're worried that the HBH-PV710 may weigh us down after a while, since it tips the scale at 0.5 ounces (we'll have to check out a review unit to know for sure).

The Sony Ericsson HBH-PV710 doesn't only focus on style. The headset's lengthy battery life of 12 hours of talk time and 300 hours of standby could keep the chattiest of chatterboxes satisfied -- that is, if Sony Ericsson's specs hold up under scrutiny.

Specifications

  • Supports hands-free and headset Bluetooth profiles
  • Measures: 2.4 by 1.7 inches
  • Weight: 0.5 ounces

    Price and availability

    The Sony Ericsson HBH-PV710 is expected to be available this spring. Pricing has yet to be announced.
