Along with the Nokia 5800 Xpress Music and its Comes with Music promotion, Nokia also announced a slew of stereo headsets to match its new music-focused products on Thursday. The Nokia BH-504 is the only Bluetooth headset of the bunch, with the ability to handle calls as well as listen to music wirelessly.
BH-504 set alongside the wired WH-500, WH-202 and WH-800 sets. The BH-504 set doubles as a headset and features echo cancellation and noise reduction technology built in for clearer conversations. The headphones sport dedicated music controls including a volume adjustment. The folding headphones are battery-powered and rated at 7.5 hours of playback time, 9 hours of talk time and can stand by for 90 hours.
Nokia’s other newly-released headphones, although wired, are also capable of handling calls thanks to built-in microphones. The over-the-ear design of the WH-500, the WH-800 have an in-ear design and the WH-202s are the most compact, as they’re earbuds. The WH-500 is similar to the BH-504 set, also sporting music controls although they are located on the wire that ends in a 3.5mm audio jack. A 2.5mm adapter is included to make the headphones compatible with Nokia handsets.
The other three headsets are of the wired variety, and all three have call management features. The WH-202 has ear clips for long-wear comfort and has a 2.5mm connector for cell phones with that headset jack, though it doesn't have music player controls. The WH-500 has a design similar to that of the BH-504, plus it has music keys such as play/pause and next/previous track and a 3.5 mm connector (as well as a 2.5mm adapter). Finally, the WH-800 earbuds come with adjustable ear hooks, a volume rocker, a carrying case, and a 3.5 mm connector plus a 2.5mm adapter.
No pricing or specific launch information has been announced by Nokia.
