In March, Overdrive readers and Mid-America Trucking Show attendees got a sneak peek at the BlueParrott company's new Pro Series line of next-generation Bluetooth headsets designed specifically for long-haul professional truck drivers.
Today, the series' Pro B350 and Pro B450 models are available online via BlueParrott.com, Amazon, and Best Buy. The Pro Series will be available in-store at major retailers in early June, including Best Buy and truck stops nationwide.
Developed for professional drivers across a range of routes, the Pro Series aims to deliver consistent, high-quality communication on the road. BlueParrott worked closely with professional truck drivers to incorporate feedback on fit and comfort following hands-on testing to ensure a design that stands up to the BlueParrott brand they rely on, with greater comfort during long shifts, too.
At the core of the Pro Series is a multi-microphone system with advanced voice isolation and precision audio processing, enabling calls, navigation, and real-time coordination within a durable design.
"Professional drivers rely on clear, consistent communication no matter the environment, and the Pro Series reflects our continued commitment to delivering that performance," said Andrew Doyle, Vice President and General Manager of BlueParrott and Jabra. "By pairing our longest-ever talk time with AI-powered voice isolation and advanced noise cancellation, the Pro B450 is a game changer for drivers who want to hear and be heard and stay connected and in control every shift."
