Bang & Olufsen EarSet 3i Headphones Only Look Sorta Expensive

Super-mega luxury electronics purveyor Bang & Olufsen has a new headphone set out – and it’s got an i-suffix, so you know who they’re trying to grab! The EarSet 3is have a microphone, phone/volume controls and are moderately shiny.

They don’t pack any audio improvement over their predecessors, but sport a brushed aluminium and rubber mix that is pretty good looking. $US250 good looking? Probably not – and those over-ear clips don’t look tremendously comfortable with only a thin rubber coating. Still, they match the B&O look, so if that’s your bag, bag away. [B&O via BornRich]
