Wearable trend led by Bluetooth headset

From the current function of bracelet and watch, its main function is health and efficiency. Health function is step counting, efficiency function is notification. These two functions, bracelet can be better completed. As a result, the smart watch does not have the advantage of differentiated competition with the bracelet for the time being. The bracelet has all the core functions. Therefore, although Apple watch is the smart watch with the largest shipment volume at present, the shipment volume is not large. What's more, the short board that the smart watch can't complete temporarily is the endurance. The bracelet is full of electricity once and can last for several weeks, but the power consumption of the watch can't reach the endurance of the bracelet.

? the rise of Bluetooth headset

It has been more than 20 years since the birth of Bluetooth technology standard, and this year is likely to be a year when its market share has risen sharply. The reason for this is that mobile phone manufacturers have begun to realize that adding a wired headphone interface is a great waste of cell phone space. Moreover, wired headphones are not conducive to the overall waterproof of the mobile phone. Based on this, some mobile phone manufacturers have begun to gradually remove the 3.5mm headphone connector of the new model, and use lighting connector or type-C connector to connect wired headphones. If you want to use wired headphones after switching to the connector, you can either use the adapter to connect the 3.5mm headphones or use the wired headphones with the new connector. Currently, a few headphone manufacturers have followed up with the lighting or type-C headphones.

This is the growth point of Bluetooth headset. First, the limitations of wired headset, inconvenient connection and vulnerable wire. Second, a variety of headphone interfaces have created obstacles for the production of mobile phone manufacturers. There are many different headphone connectors for the same type of headphone. The Bluetooth headset does not have the above problems. First, the Bluetooth protocol is a general protocol and all terminals support it. Second, with the gradual improvement of Bluetooth technology, the power consumption has been reduced to an acceptable level. Third, the transmission bandwidth of Bluetooth is gradually increasing, which means that the gap between Bluetooth headset and limited headset in sound quality can be gradually reduced.

? the future of Bluetooth headset

These are the advantages of Bluetooth headset over wired headset, and more importantly, the advantages of long use time. Wired headphones are worn when they are in use, not when they are not in use, while Bluetooth headphones are not bound by wires, so they can be worn all day long and wake up when they are in use. This means that the use time of Bluetooth headset is the whole time, it is another form of wearable device. Compared with bracelet and watch, it can complete the function of notification as well as some health functions. What's more, intelligent voice assistant can't be more suitable in the scene of Bluetooth headset. Bluetooth headset provides a suitable scene for the intelligent voice assistant. The interaction with the intelligent voice assistant will not only stay on the mobile phone, but will gradually transfer to the headset. The headset will become a window for users to interact with the mobile phone.

In a word, in the evolution of wearable devices, Bluetooth headset must be an indispensable part. It will certainly shine in the field of wearable devices and bring more beauty and convenience to life.
