The beauty of design

Nokia believes in the philosophy of beautiful design, combining aesthetics, function and emotion. The Nokia J follows this ideal. Unlike on most headsets, there are no clips or hooks. Its unique form, one flowing shape, makes it look almost organic, and combined with six different ear buds you’re guaranteed a perfect fit. The ergonomics are further enhanced by its weight, a mere eight grams; so light it’s easy to forget it’s there. Made partly of stylish stainless steel, the Nokia J also has a plastic curve to allow the Bluetooth antenna’s radio frequency to pass through it.

Performance, pure and simple

Of course, pure elegance alone isn’t enough. The Nokia J may be incredibly light, comfortable and secure, but thanks to a concept created by Nokia, Always Ready, it’s also very simple to use.

For a start, you only wear it in your ear when you make or take a call. The rest of the time it sits in a holder that clips, much like a pen, onto your clothes. When you need to use it, you just take it out and the headset takes care of the rest: powering up, connecting and call answering. Once it’s put back in the holder, the call is disconnected.

It’s this feature that makes the Nokia J breathtakingly energy efficient. From a single charge, you’re guaranteed 5 hours of talk time and an astounding 3 months of standby. When the battery is low, the headset tells you. Yeah, you heard right. It speaks.

The Nokia J also uses a Micro USB charger, this new charger is set to become industry standard, meaning you can use the same charger for the Nokia J as you use for virtually every other gadget, including smartphones and cameras.

Voice quality that speaks for itself

From an audio point of view, there’s no doubt the Nokia J’s minimalist design presented a challenge to Nokia’s audio engineers. Outbound voice quality is very dependent upon the distance from your mouth to the microphone, which is why headsets need to stick out from your ear. However, the Nokia J is one of the smallest headsets in the world, making the distance that much greater.

To overcome this, Nokia sound engineers used Digital Signal Processing, the technology that quite literally finds your speech and purifies it by getting rid of any ambient static noise. Audio is further enhanced by automated volume control, allowing the Nokia J to adapt to the environment and adjust the volume accordingly. The result is a call quality that often sounds better than your smartphone.

Nokia isn’t renowned for boasting; quite the opposite. Yet, after a few days of using the Nokia J, it’s clear why the product team is so proud of their achievement. And they’re not the only ones singing its praises. The Nokia J has already picked up a couple of prestigious design awards from IF and Red Dot. Don’t be surprised if these are the first of many.

Although the battery life is rated to last for up to three months on standby, the Nokia BH-806 comes bundled with a complementary desktop charger so you can always keep it topped up.
