Jabra launches new wireless headphone range

Jabra has released its new Revo wireless, Revo corded and Vox headphones, designed specifically for use with smartphones.

‚”As a business that understands the headset and speakerphone market intrinsically, we are always opting for new markets to expand into and after some careful market research, we realised that South Africa cannot be ignored given its mobile revolution and consumer adoption of gadgets and technology,‚” says Ahmed Elkalliny, Middle East & Africa Area Sales Director at Jabra.

As part of the local offering Jabra have brought to market a number of quality, durable and aesthetically appealing headsets and speaker solutions including: the Jabra REVO WIRELESS, Jabra REVO corded and Jabra VOX in-ear earphones, as well as the Jabra SOLEMATE portable speaker.

Specifically designed for hard-wearing, everyday use and portability, the new Jabra REVO WIRELESS, Jabra REVO corded and Jabra VOX in-ear earphones epitomise the ultimate balance in design, ease-of-use and outstanding sound quality that is expected from today’s discerning music lover.

With a worldwide reputation for delivering superbly engineered audio solutions, Jabra has upped the ante sonically with the addition of Dolby Digital Plus technology which – together with Jabra’s exclusive Sound App for iOS and Android devices – creating a much richer and fuller sound that is often missing in digitally compressed audio.

The latest suite of stereo headphones is expected to find favor with music enthusiasts who want massive, high-definition sound clarity as well as those looking to take their favourite recordings to another level of performance and sophistication.

Adds Elkalliny: ‚”It is these consumers who are bringing forth an ‚’always on’ wave of mobile users – consuming an ever-increasing amount of entertainment, which results in a large amount of device wear and tear particularly with headphones.‚”

To this end, Jabra’s headphones are designed to be ‚’used and abused’ and this new range is no exception. Both the Jabra REVO WIRELESS and Jabra REVO headphones are solidly constructed using an aluminum frame, steel hinges and a shatter-proof headband for extreme flexibility. The small but tough Jabra VOX is built from premium materials, comes with tangle-free, reinforced cables and is thoroughly tested for ultimate durability and performance.

‚”Headphones are subjected to a lot of wear and tear so consumers are demanding that they are designed to withstand the rigours of regular use,‚” notes Elkalliny. ‚”Jabra’s line of stereo products has been tested to the extreme, undergoing drop tests, bend tests, fold tests, cable tests, dirt tests and more. These headphones are built to last, without sacrificing style or sound quality.‚”

As with audio excellence, comfort and design are synonymous with Jabra products and that unmistakably under-stated, yet stylish Scandinavian design is reflected across this new range. From padded headbands and plush, memory foam ear cups on the Jabra REVO to perfectly fitting, specially designed ColorCore EarGels for enhanced comfort and deep sound on the Jabra VOX, the new range of stereo headphones is engineered to rest comfortably for extended use and lifestyle fulfillment.

Additionally, now music lovers can also enjoy the freedom of big sound wherever they are with the Jabra SOLEMATE, a fun and multifunctional portable Bluetooth speaker that enables sharing and broadcasting of entertainment with anyone, anytime and anywhere. With strong, deep bass from an integrated subwoofer and rich, vibrant acoustics from dual tweeters, the SOLEMATE sounds great at any level. The Jabra SOLEMATE connects to any device that can play music – either corded or wirelessly – using Bluetooth technology, a 3.5mm audio cable or USB cable, and caters to all types of uses. Whether connected to a mobile phone, tablet, iPad, iPod, mp3 Player or laptop, the SOLEMATE is the perfect audio companion to play music clearly and loudly.

About the size and weight of a small soda bottle, the SOLEMATE is small and light and features a handy carry strap and rubber sole base that stores the 3.5 mm audio cable so it’s always available. Furthermore, the durable design is sweat, dust, shock and splash resistant.
