Sony Ericsson MH907 Motion-Activated Headphones

OK, it’s finally happened. Someone out there, namely Sony Ericsson, has decided that the world of headphones could use a real innovation. Now I’m not talking about adding rare earth magnets or lights that pulse along with the beat of your tunes (both of which have already been done), I’m talking about a completely new innovation that is certain to get your attention. Sony Ericsson has announced today the launch of their new MH907 motion-activated headphones and they just might change the way you look at headphones from now on.

The Sony Ericsson MH907 headphones feature a really cool motion-activation technology that is sure to save you both time and frustration when it comes to making and receiving calls on your wireless device. Say you’re jamming along to your favorite song on your Sony Ericsson phone. Normally, you’d have to pause the song, select answer, and start chatting. With the new MH907 earbuds, you simply remove one of the headphones from your ear and it automatically pauses your music and accepts the call. You don’t have to fumble for little buttons or slider bars. It seems pretty intuitive to me.

Once you’re done with your call, you simply reinsert the headphone and off you go. Sony Ericsson has patented the technology and is calling it SensMe. It not only works when you have to make or receive a call, it works to control the music function of the phone as well. Remove an earbud, pause the music. Insert both earbuds and the phone’s music player starts automatically. The MH907 Motion-Activated Headphones are available in both yellow and chrome and will retail for about $55. There is a catch, though. They’re only compatible with Sony Ericsson phones that have a fast port, so you should check the compatibility of yours at www.sonyericsson.com.
