Handiheadset: It’s a Giant Hand

hand headset Handiheadset: Its a Giant Hand
Need a hand answering that phone? The Handiheadset is an oversized hand that works as a headset for your phone. Do I need to state the obvious? It’s freakin’ ridiculous. Which is probably why the Kickstarter is juuuuuuust short of it’s goal for funding and production. It just needs to make up the remaining 98% and this thing goes live. Seriously who would use this?
handi headset Handiheadset: Its a Giant Hand
Hang loose my friends. It has a wire to plug into the jack of any phone and the underside of this giant hand is open with a handle to hold on to. So to answer the question, no this giant hand handset is not hands-free. And it’s just $33 to get in on this deal. There must be more Carrot Top fans somewhere out there looking for a handset, right?

So the Callmate (specializes in conference calling) comes as a breath of fresh air with its cool smartphone-esque physique and transparent touchscreen applications.

Single Speaker Asset

They say that it’s more than a speaker, handset or speakerphone, and if you ask me honestly then the Monocle is a radicle style statement tech. I love the quirky fact that daisy-chain up to 10 Monocles to create the best
listening experience. As a smartphone companion, I think this is a cool design that promises form and function.

Native Union gets Victorian with Monocle, a hybrid handset for the hipster crowd

DNP Monocle

Native Union is known for finding inspiration in retro form factors -- as we saw with the Pop Phone -- and the company is going even more old school with its latest offering: Monocle. The epitome of faux-vintage hipster chic, Monocle is equal parts speaker, handset and speakerphone. If, for some reason, you ever come across another intrepid soul carrying a Monocle, the devices can be linked together in a daisy chain, letting you listen in on each other's calls and boost your speaker power. This triple threat launches tomorrow on Native Union's website (linked below), with a starting price of £40 (roughly $62). If you're so inclined to add this curious accessory to your collection, may we suggest pairing it with an actual monocle? After all, nothing says street cred like a monocle overdose.

Sony’s SBH52 Smart Bluetooth clip acts as your secondary handset

Sony's SBH52 Smart Bluetooth clip acts as your secondary handset

HTC may have its Mini Bluetooth handset, but Sony thinks such implementation works best as a big clip without the numeric pad. Dubbed the SBH52, this splashproof device comes with FM radio, a headphone jack plus a small OLED display to show caller ID and text messages, so in a way it's similar to its predecessors. What's new is that you now get NFC as well as an earpiece -- the latter lets you use the clip as a mini phone. Expect to see this on the shelves in Q3 this year.
