First up is the Jabra Play. Similar to the Bluedio-DF200 that I reviewed a while back, the Jabra Play is a Bluetooth remote with a headphone jack for your smartphone. The Play will come with its own set of noise canceling earbuds for you to use if you choose too. Where I personally find these device to be most beneficial is for people who want premium sound for movies and music from their higher end headphones, but don’t want to have to unplug to take a call. It is seriously awesome to use a set of Spider PowerForce headphones to rock out in the kitchen and still answer a phone call wirelessly.
The Jabra Play will connect up to two devices simultaneously and let you stream music for a solid 6 hours. You can hang it around your neck, clip it to your shirt or backpack or tuck it somewhere out-of-the-way till you need to talk. It also has your various volume, track controls and play pause buttons. I really like it.
