Yubz Talk Mobile Bluetooth Handset Review

The YUBZ (Why You Busy?) Talk Bluetooth headset is far from your average wireless mobile phone headset. This Bluetooth headset comes with the iconic handset shape and classic handset experience, but with the twist of being wireless. If you like attention and want to be the talk of the bar, just bring one of these in with you and you'll have all the attention you wanted.

The Yubz (pronounced "Why You Busy") Talk Bluetooth handset is a replica of the Western Electric 500-series model, which was the classic phone handset for several decades. After taking the handset out of its packaging, we really couldn’t believe how alike this thing was compared to the one that most of us grew up with in their home. The size and weight of the handset is almost identical to that of the original. The Yubz AC Charger that is included has a coiled cable like the old-school phones as well!

Oh now that's just awesome. Not only is it a classic telephone, it's BRIGHT RED! I don't work in an office but if I did I'd have the Yubz sitting on my desk. Whenever a call came in I'd scurry to pick it up, clamp it to my ear, hold my hand to cup my mouth to the mic, and glance around furtively. If someone asked, I'd say "no comment" and garner lots of stares 8) Great product, just needs a stand that you can hang it on at the desk.

I had not seen the red version, that is great! The black version has been out quite some time now, would love one for my desk.

Where do you keep it when you are out and about and not on a call?

It would be awesome to use that as your headset, it really would.

Just wear baggy pants, and pull out of your back pocket (or even a cargo pocket). Oh, and you could probably add one of those comfort fitting attachments to hold between your neck and shoulder! lol

There is actually a little clip that YUBZ sells (or you can make), that you can hook on to your backpack or jeans. I usually leave it inside my bag or briefcase when I walk out of the building.

Just a little puppy trying to make it in a big digital world.
