Music, technology and apparel seem to be like the three Stooges these days – they don't seem to be a well-adjusted trio, but they work just fine to bring you the best in entertainment.
One of the gizmos I've been waiting to get my hands (and eyes and ears) on for a while now are the O ROKR Bluetooth-enabled eyewear made for Motorola by Oakley. I kept pestering our main man around here, Rajesh, to get these.
And guess what, he did oblige. I finally got a crack at testing the O ROKR and here's my two cents.
Form Factor
The device is manufactured by Oakley, so as you can imagine the design is exactly what you’d expect from one of the foremost manufacturers of glares.
Design-wise it does seem a bit bulky, but the fit was fine. The adjustable earpieces may not be comfortable to wear for a long time, but they were okay. Ideally they should have been a bit smaller, with foam covers for comfort.
There are a total of six tiny buttons on the upper rims of the glares. On the left rim you’ll find the two volume keys, on either side of the call answer/end button. This key also doubles as the power key.
On the right hand rim are the skip and play/pause buttons. Below the left rim is a microphone.
Performance
The eyewear is easy to use. Not much is required to set up the device or pair it with an A2DP compatible phone. Since there are just a few controls there’s not much navigation required.
Like I said before, the O ROKR wasn't exactly super-comfortable to wear all day (or even for a couple of hours). And just think: if you’re not on a call or listening to music, just how weird would it look to have those earpieces sticking out like a couple of sore thumbs?
AcDc, what were you looking at? It clearly does not say discontinued on the oakley website, in fact all it says is the price and ships in 24 hours....... they are quite cool, I got a pair a couple of days ago. They should have foam buds, but they're quite comfortable actually. And definitely cooler than a bluetooth thing in your ear!
