The HD 4.50BTNC/HD 4.50R Wireless headphones
Bluetooth
The headphones comply with the Bluetooth 4.0 standard and are compatible with all Bluetooth 1.1, 1.2, 2.0, 2.1, 3.0 and 4.0 devices with the following Bluetooth profiles: HFP (Hands-Free Profile), HSP (Headset Profile), AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile) and A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile). The headphones provide wireless freedom to give hands-free convenience during phone calls or when listening to music.
NFC
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a short-range wireless technology that en­ables connection and communication between NFC-capable electronic devices by placing them near one another or with a single touch.
NoiseGard
The NoiseGard™ active noise compensation system is based on the principle of cancelling out sound using “anti-sound”. Tiny microphones pick up low­frequency ambient noise near the ear. The NoiseGard electronics use this noise to generate a sound wave which is the exact opposite, the effect being that the polarity reversed signal cancels most of the outside noise.
aptX®
With aptX® audio coding, you can be assured of crisp, pure and full stereo sound. It allows you to not only hear, but experience and feel the audio as it was intended. Utilizing aptX®, Bluetooth technology can now offer wireless audio quality that is indistinguishable from the highest quality wired connection.
