I don't know how much designers are paid these days but Jabra could not pay the guy who designed the Halo enough for having done a sterling job on this stereo Bluetooth headset!  Seldom have I seen a product where form and function so harmoniously work together to present a very pleasing product.
Excitement builds as I unbox the Jabra Halo.  With our previous experiences in this department we are a little bit anxious: how good is the quality of the sound and how well does its Bluetooth connection function beyond a couple of metres?

UNISON B-XT

Having never had a Cygnett-Unison product on my desk before, I wasn’t really sure what to expect: Sure, the unit looked nice on the product page, but they always do, don’t they?

 

And so, it was with some trepidation that I opened the package and first set my eyes upon the Unison B-XT Bluetooth Music System.
