BlueAnt brings the V1 to market
The
BlueAnt V1, which we first saw back at
CES, is finally available. Based off the Z9 we enjoyed quite a bit, the
BlueAnt Z1 distinguishes itself by replacing buttons with voice commands, bring simplicity to a normally complicated genre. BlueAnt has scrapped the myriad of button combinations normally needed to activate headset functions and replaced them with the
BlueGenie Voice Interface from Sensory, Inc. In addition to controlling the headset, voice dialing is actually part of the V1 making it independent of the phone. Like the
BlueAnt Z9, the V1 incorporates dual microphones which allow background noise to be filtered via BlueAnt's proprietary Voice Isolation Technology. In addition to commands like "Pair Me," "Redial" and "Ignore Call" the V1 recognizes "Call GOOG-411," which shows how much BlueAnt is in tune with their market. The V1 lists at $129.99, but is available now from
Amazon at $109.99.
