Voyager PRO HD and Instantmeeting App for Smartphones Transform Mobile Productivity
Plantronics (NYSE: PLT) today extended its family of Bluetooth® products
with the launch of the Plantronics Voyager PRO HD Bluetooth® headset.
Part of the award-winning Voyager PRO line[1], the Plantronics‘
Voyager
PRO HD is designed to make work and life easier for professionals on
the go and is the first consumer headset that knows when you’re wearing
it. Simply place it on your ear and Plantronics’ Smart SensorTM
technology automatically transfers calls to your headset. With
world-class sensor and noise cancellation technology, combined with the
ability to stream high-definition audio and superior comfort for an all
day fit, the Voyager PRO HD is the smartest headset on the market.
Adding unparalleled convenience for the mobile professional, Plantronics InstantMeeting
now connects you to conference calls from your iPhone, in addition to
BlackBerry and Android phones, with just one touch. InstantMeeting scans
your calendar, automatically inserts all phone numbers and passcodes,
reminds you of your calls, and lets you notify participants if you are
running late so you’ll never miss or be late to a meeting again.
“Together with the latest release of InstantMeeting, the Voyager PRO
HD provides the ideal communication solution for busy business
professionals on the move,” said Stuart Bradshaw, Plantronics EMEA
Head of Consumer Marketing. “These intuitive products simplify
communications and redefine mobile productivity so users can quickly and
easily get connected and get on with their work and life.”
Smart Sensor Technology
Making and receiving calls is simpler with Smart Sensor technology in
the Voyager PRO HD. The headset knows when you are wearing it so it
cleverly routes calls to the headset when it’s on your ear and to the
handset when it’s not. Voyager PRO HD also has a locking call mechanism
when it is not worn to eliminate accidental calling, and you can answer
incoming calls simply by putting the headset on your ear - no buttons to
press, applications to open or voice commands required. Its enhanced
voice alerts announce remaining talk time, connection status,
battery-level and mute.
MyheadsetTM App Makes it Easier
The Voyager PRO HD app, currently available in the Android Market,
provides one-touch pairing and a sound check before you make that
important call and also helps users familiarize themselves with the
added functionality of the headset, such as streaming music. All the
information usually found hidden inside the box is now on screen thanks
to the app, such as a set-up guide and FAQs, meaning all support and
guidance is at the tips of your fingers any time.
Superior Sound Quality
Like its predecessors, Voyager PRO HD boasts award-winning sound
quality, noise cancellation, and three layers of wind noise reduction
technology to ensure that your voice is heard clearly regardless of the
sort of environment you’re in. Plantronics HD audio is for more than
just answering calls, you can listen to music, follow GPS directions, or
check social media platforms and email.
Stay Connected with Your Voice
With Vocalyst Voice and Text
Services you can send and listen to email or text messages, post to
Facebook and Twitter, or check the weather-hands-free. A one-year
subscription to the cloud-based Vocalyst service is included with
purchase of the Voyager PRO HD.
