Flamingo set to revolutionise the UK Bluetooth market
The lightweight and stylish Flamingo Bluetooth headset, which provides discreet Scandinavian design, maximum comfort and audio clarity so that it can be worn continuously throughout the day, has been launched into the UK marketplace. The Flamingo can be securely and conveniently worn online or offline while working, driving, shopping or playing sports and is manufactured with Scandinavian precision by CellPoint Connect.
The Flamingo headset weighs only 11 grammes and uniquely features patent-pending EarClick™ technology composed of two small, non-allergenic pads that fit ergonomically into the folds of the ear to hold the earpiece in place in maximum comfort, without additional support. This has enabled a discrete, stylish design without an ugly over-the-ear frame.
The Flamingo headset has an open channel design so users are able to hear surrounding sounds such as traffic and face-to-face conversation.
The Flamingo can be used for wireless communication with mobile phones and with computers for IP telephony services such as Skype.
Michael Mathiesen, CEO of CellPoint Connect said: "The Flamingo Bluetooth headset changes the way people think about headsets – it sits comfortably in the ear, looks completely different to people’s expectations for a headset and delivers excellent performance."
The Flamingo headset was recently launched in Scandinavia, the USA, Japan, Singapore and Malaysia and quickly achieved wide market interest from businesses and shoppers seeking high quality and high functionality.
Leading UK retailers have also responded enthusiastically to the Flamingo and it is already available from Selfridges, Amazon and Expansys.
The Scandinavian-designed Flamingo is quickly put on and removed and allows eyeglasses to be worn without interference. It can be securely and comfortably worn with any hairstyle, with earrings or over hearing aids.
Flamingo headsets are available in black and silver. They are sold with a desktop charger and AC adapter, six different sizes of EarClick™ pads, a neck strap, user manual and warranty card.
Flamingo’s battery is long-lasting and lightweight. It provides up to eight hours of talk time and 180 hours of standby time, so it only needs to be charged once or twice a week with normal use.
The Flamingo recommended retail price is £69.99 including VAT.
