Samsung Gear Circle Wireless Headset Now On Sale in U.S.

Samsung fans in the U.S. can finally get their hands on the tech giant's new Gear Circle Bluetooth headphone.

With this new headset, users will not only be able to listen to their favorite songs, but also take phone calls and make voice commands through S Voice, according to Android Central. A magnetic clasp is provided so that the headset stays secure around your neck when you're not using it.

The U.S. release for the Gear Circle follows three months after the device made its debut alongside Samsung's Gear S smartwatch.

The South Korean company designed the Gear Circle to function as both a wireless stereo headphone and a communication device, CNET reported. Working with Bluetooth makes connecting the headset to other devices unnecessary when you want to listen to music or take calls. Additional features include detachable earbuds that can be used for listening to music and having conversations on your phone, as well as a built-in microphone to use for receiving and making calls from the device. The headset also vibrates in order to alert users of incoming calls.

Samsung said the Gear Circle's battery can provide nine hours of music playback and 11 hours of talk time on a single charge.

The Gear Circle is available now in blue and black models in "select" T-Mobile stores, and customers will be able to get it at AT&T, Samsung.com and Amazon.com later this month, CNET reported. You will also be able to get a white model of the device at Best Buy.

The U.S. price for Samsung's new headset has yet to be revealed.
