The Mooon+: Not just another touchscreen phone
This is an interesting concept phone called the Mooon+ and it isn’t just another iPhone wannabe. It has a nice clean design, with a large touchscreen, sleek design, and a digital camera. It’s pretty sexy, but it’s not all about looks. It has some fascinating features. For instance, the mouth piece detaches and turns into a bluetooth headset. It will also charge itself via the headset.

Designed by Sunman Kwon, it pretty much solves the problem of cellphone owners who lose their headsets, by simply incorporating the accessory into the phone’s mouth piece.

Joby Zivio headset with retractable “boom”

Joby Zivio Bluetooth headsetWhile most Bluetooth headsets we’ve seen lately are concerned with being discrete and then coming up with elaborate technology to focus on only noise from your moth, Joby is coming out with a new model that helps state the obvious when you are on a call. The new Zivio Bluetooth headset is being showcased by Joby at this year’s CES in Las Vegas this week, and features a long antenna like “boom” with a microphone at the end.

The headset is still relatively small at 13 grams and a length of 53.5mm, but with the microphone extended it more than doubles the overall length bringing it up to 137mm. The headset will continue to work with the microphone boom retracted, but when you receive a call and extend the telephone operator-like mic, it will improve your voice clarity and help drown out other background noise, not to mention leave those around you in no doubt that you are taking a call.
