We’ve seen a few pictures of the blue DR-BT101 around the web, but the picture above (click on it) is the highest quality version I’ve seen to date. This is a pretty nice looking bluetooth headphone if you like over the head style. During CES 2009, Sony showed off the DR-BT101 Bluetooth stereo headphones with included mic. The DR-BT101 will arrive sometime in 2009, most likely Spring. You can conveniently charge these headphones through a standard mini USB connection, how ever, we didn’t see a removable battery latch. The headphone itself also includes a built-in subtle microphone for mobile phone use (Hands-Free) with clear voice technology for best human voice reception. Echo canceling technology is also included, which further enhances phone conversation. Remote control functions are also included on the headset (A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, HSP).
Other new specs we’ve recently discovered include a 40mm Neodymium headphone driver, and a Omni Directional, Electret Condensor Microphone. Effective frequency range is 100-4,000 Hz, and the battery is definitely built-in.
