Our congratulations go to Plantronics for brightening a chilly Tuesday with a big slab of preposterous show off consumerism. That’s right folks; the dinky gold Bluetooth headset to your right is worth a cool £50k.
Serial Bluetooth-botherers Plantronics have just ripped the covers off the Discovery 925, a wireless earpiece that looks a step up from the average plasticky jabber-tool. The V-shaped frame curves round to follow the contours of the wearer’s face and there’s also noise reduction gubbins going on, which is nice, but really the main reason to shell out the quids on this thing is its stylishness – if you could call any Bluetooth headset stylish. It comes in black, gold or pink enamel finishes and offers five hours of talk time, plus an additional five hours charge courtesy of the portable charging case.
