It was a long time coming, but we finally have a full review of Sony’s PFR-V1 “personal field speakers.” C|net’s intrepid review team took the headphones for a spin and unsurprisingly found them to be “expensive and impractical” and almost entirely lacking in bass. Goofy looks aside, they did move the music from inside your skull to in front of your face as promised. Of course, that little novelty comes with excessive sound leak to the annoyance of those around you. As such, the headphones are limited to at-home or closed-door office use unless you relish the scorn of others. C|net still rewards the $500 oddity with a generous 7 out of 10 (very good) rating despite a long list of qualifications.

Update: Be sure to check C|net’s video review.

The Joby Zivio is a Bluetooth headset with a telescoping, extendable microphone boom which provides exceptional audio quality in challenging environments such as high-noise public areas and moving automobiles. This ultra-sensitive microphone can eliminate background noise that enables clear sound quality. This is made possible because the gains are reduced to their lowest levels, which falls away background noise.

Its earpieces, made with soft gel caps, are interchangeable, offering a comfortable fit. It also has an optional ear loop attached via magnet for custom fit. This ensures the user an all-day comfort. It could be worn on either the left or right ear, and will not interfere with eyewear or earrings.

The elegantly-designed Zivio has 10 hours of talk time or 12.5 days standby time, has a range of 33ft and can be recharged via USB.
