Nextlink Bluespoon AX2 reviewed: 4/5 stars
MobileTechReview has thrown down a review of the
Nextlink Bluespoon AX2 Bluetooth 1.2 headset. They
are mad impressed by the diminutive size and weight — in fact, it's so light at 1/3-ounce that when worn "it
doesn't feel like it's there." They didn't like the fact that it actually goes "in the ear" perhaps for fear of
cooties. Body louse is not really a concern for us since we tend to hoard our toys, but the sound quality
certainly is. They expected a deeper bass sound from the in-ear design but found it to be "overly telephonic" —
this proved to be "tiring." However, volume levels were excellent for clear conversations in noisy environments.
As to the battery, they achieved 7 of the 8 hours talk-time claimed (connected to a PC at max distance) and were
not happy to find that charging must be done via USB only as a wall charger is not supplied — not very
handy if you're mobile and only have access to your laptop or
Crackberry. All-in-all, the
AX2 comes away with 4/5 stars.
