Why BackBeat PRO headphones make for a happier flight

The new wireless, noise-cancelling headphones by Plantronics are perfect for travellers

It was a small step for man, but a giant leap for an electronics company when Neil Armstrong stepped onto the surface of the moon in 1969 and made contact with Earth using a Plantronics MS50 headset.

Since then, Plantronics has continued to build on its reputation for sound innovation. In 1983 the company launched the first call-centre headsets, before perfecting a super-light cordless design used for gaming and internet calls by the end of the 1990s.

Half a century later, Plantronics is still delivering smart, innovative design and up-to-the-minute tech, with a focus on perfect sound. And it’s no longer just astronauts and gamers who can take advantage of the advances. The features of present-day Plantronics headphones make them perfect for anyone who appreciates great sound when they’re travelling.

In particular, Plantronics has launched the BackBeat PRO wireless noise-cancelling headphones with mic, which make the ideal companion if you’re someone who hates to be unplugged while you’re on the move.

Immerse yourself in a world of music and block out unwanted sounds with on-demand, Active Noise Cancelling options, and listen to up to 24 hours of continuous wireless music, streamed from Bluetooth devices, such as your mobile, within a 100-metre range.

Fancy a film? Make believe you’re at the cinema by watching it on your tablet and streaming the sound through your headphones.

Still at the terminal, watching your tablet but waiting on an important call on your smartphone? Switch between devices and answer it quickly with the mic. If you’d rather remove the headphones the sound, or music, will pause automatically and resume when you put them back on. You can even get up to 60 hours of music, sound and phone calls.

BackBeat PRO headphones are compatible with both Android and Apple devices, easy to use and affordable, too.

Sound good to you? Then be sure to pack BackBeat PRO headphones next time you travel.

BackBeat PRO headphones are available via Amazon priced £183.15 (RRP £249.99)
