Motorola’s press release revealed two new noise cancellation universal headsets for everyones mobile entertainment needs. As one of the world’s market leader in Bluetooth enabled accessories, Motorola introduced universal Bluetooth headsets that are the best for background noise cancellation: the MOTOPURE H15 Universal Bluetooth Headset and the Motorola H780 Universal Bluetooth Headset.

The MOTOPURE H15 Universal Bluetooth Headset features an exclusive flip design and has the best background noise cancellation, based on independent testing of the top-selling dual-microphone Bluetooth headsets. It is designed for busy, mobile consumers who are on the go and in frequently changing noise environments. As surrounding background noise increases, users won’t have to adjust the volume manually, because H15 automatically enhances frequencies to improve call clarity in both loud and quiet environments.

On the other hand, the H780 lets users take the conversation while on the go – from the office to the street or the crowded airport terminal. With exceptional sound quality from CrystalTalk technology for headsets and seven hours of hands-free talk time, the H780 enables users to carry on a conversation while on the go for as long as necessary. A tiny, 9mm speaker comfortably fits over 90 percent of users tested. A brushed, carbon fiber finish, spun metal, and textured side band create a sleek and slim look.

MOTOPURE H15 and the H780 are expected to be available beginning in Q4 2008.
