Hey all, so, my headphones finally broke after months of intense use (the left headphone doesn't work anymore, but the right one still does).
Does anyone have a cheaper recommendation other than the stock SGS4G headset? I love the thing, but I just wanna see what other possibilities there are. $30 for a headset seems like a pretty generous amount.

is what i use
I posted this before, but here it is again:
http://cgi.ebay.com/3-5mm-Handsfree...898635?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3caf3ab78b
SnuggBuds.
I use these I used them for running to. They have great bass sound.
I purchased the headset from AntonX's post. I'm waiting for them to arrive now. I'll keep you guys posted on whether or not it's comparable to the OEM headset.
Then again, it's shipped from Hong Kong, so I'm guessing it would be authentic Samsung...
On another note, I realize that ALL of my headphones always break from the connector. One of the earbuds always end up failing on me. I'm guessing it's because I don't store them away properly (I just coil it up and put it into my ass pocket). So...how do you guys keep your headphones safe?
I purchased them a month ago too. They are under dust in my bedroom corner. Poor sound,difficult to plug in properly to get the most sound. I dont think this is authentic from samsung. They r just fake.you get what you pay for

Hm, that's strange. I myself found links to these on xda I9000 accessory forum, and people who bought them didn't seem to complain and actually made impression that these were original Samsung OEMs. Well, the ones that came with the phone don't sound that great either, maybe just OK.
I have a pair of these too:
http://www.amazon.com/JVC-HA-FX35-B...DVRI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1310007450&sr=8-1
They are not perfect but quite good for cheap ones.
in terms of sound quality ive always liked skull candy, they last me about 6 months, but i dont know if theyre coming with mics in them
just bought it last monday on sale 7.99 its a good ones

Okay, I just received the five headsets from this guy. They were ALL defective. They are not even close to acceptable, and the answer/end call buttons don't work either.
Wish me luck on returning these to Hong Kong.

I'd recommend something like Skull Candy Mic'd
That model is only $20, and is the same style as the Samsung ones. They feel about the same in comfort, but they definitely sound better with music.

Hrm, that's definitely something I'll look into. How is the call quality on that? For the Samsung OEM headset, it sounds pretty good.
Btw, you can get them from Amazon for cheaper, and Skullcandy still provides warranty for them!
I bought some from the swapmeet and have been working fine for 6 months great sound
Quality and awesome bass

For anyone that may be remotely interested, timesaviour on Ebay (the seller mentioned by AntonX) has the OEM headset for Samsung Galaxy S I9000. All the headsets he sent me didn't seem to work for the SGS4G though (except for one that was actually a SGS4G OEM headset).
Still, he was cool enough to give me a refund for the defective ones.
I'll definitely be checking out the Skullcandy Ink'd Mic'd though. I've generally had great experiences with Skullcandy, and with warranty, why not!
I like the stock Sammys, but the Beats by Dre are phenomenal...although a tad bit costly.

If you get on ebay an search for best buy outlet, they usually have some great deals. I've bought 3 sets of insignia Bluetooth NS-BTHDP behind the head headsets. And they are really good. I paid $20 or less for each set from best buy on ebay. I hate the earbud kind. Oh these insignias were about $120 in stores when I bought them. I don't know how much they would be now. And they give you free shipping on them. So if you like Bluetooth headset id say check that out. And all mine were brand new still in original packaging. Hope this helps out.

Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately, I'm not really a music enthusiast. I just listen to it for boring train rides, walks, etc.
So far, I'm really convinced with the Skullcandy Ink'd Mic'd though. Can't really go wrong for $15 + warranty!
Has anyone tried Thinksound ts02+mic?
Is it me, or do iphone headphones work improperly on the SGS4G?
Specifically, I can't get the button the play/stop/skip track properly. It works sometimes, but very inconsistently.

What are the best in-ear headphones that has a mic and buttons for use while on the phone? I plan on using mostly at the gym. Thanks.
Bump, I would love to know too, thats the only time I really use my pandora.
I use the ear phones with mic from my old samsung epic 4g. There in ear thus canceling outside noise and have good bass boost, heck they sound better than iPhone earphones and as far as noise canceling goes I work as a forklift driver and I can barely hear a thing.
Motorola HT820 Bluetooth - not "in-year" but perfect for gym.
JayBird Freedom JF3
These are pretty much probably the best wireless bluetooth headphones out there. Also it's only $100 dollars. You can get it at Best Buy or the website.

ones included with a device? They have amazing bass, great mids, alright highs. I mean sure, obviously they're not comparable to $400 earbuds, but I'd say they're as good as the $140 Klipsch ones I had before my dog ate them(yes, I nearly kicked my dog through the wall and two towns over...). Good noise isolation alone is extremely rare, and these are pretty good. I can have the volume all the way up and no one can hear me more than 5 feet away, and I can have sound off and still not hear any external sound.
Is this typical of Samsung?
Once again, I'm not saying people should buy an Infuse instead of $400 hifi earbuds, but I AM saying they're great for something you get free with a device.
Keep in mind that Samsung has had some fine personal media players for some time now.
I hadn't even though of trying them.. Guess I'll try have to try them out.
yeah and they are cheap to replace the most ive seen on amazon is like 5 bucks. i bought my self and extra pair just in case.

Yeah, like I said don't expect perfect lossless playback, but they're amazing for free. And like the other person said, they're cheap to replace. You can buy a few variations which are all essentially the same on amazon for $2-5.
I've had 3 Samsung phones that all came with free headphones. In my opinion they are better than $20 skullcandys. With voodoo sound and volume cranked all the way up I get no distortion, not bad.

Personally I'd go for Samsung, I believe they are the best for audio/visual on the market.
Klipsch S4A. I'm trying to find one.
You will NOT get more bang for your buck than these. I'd have been happy had they cost me twice the asking price here. They out-perform my £60 Senheissers easily.
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/25661-a-Jays-One-Heavy-Bass-Impact-Earphones-Reviews.htm
Unfortunately I lost them, so using some Xmas cash I bought the top model in the range. They cost twice as much, but are about 5 times as good!!!! With the right EQ settings on PowerAmp (the best player IMO) these things are simply outstanding.
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/a-jays-three-heavy-bass-impact-earphones-p25667.htm
Both also have the best cable I've ever encountered. Almost impossible to tangle. Just take them out your pocket, give them a shake, and they just unravel. No messing. Very very well made too. The box they come in could be used as a time capsule. The most over-packaged product I've ever bought!
You wont be disappointed with either of these.
P.S. If anyone buys these, please time how long it takes you to get the packaging open and post your results back here!
Edit: Found the a-Jay Threes £10 cheaper here...http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.213-9892.aspx

Still love skullcandy,
I have the lowrider headphones and the ink'd earphones.
Previous version of lowrider broke quite some times, but it had great support, every time I got a new one. Never had problems now with the newer version of the Lowrider. Also never had problems with the ink'd.
Next headphone i'll buy will be the Beats Audio Solo HD

I have to disagree, i think skull candy are the epitome of style of product.
They were the worse headphones i have ever brought because of the really low audio quality of both highs and low frequencies, but they were full ear headphones and not ear phones.
had 2 types of skull candy ones and they were alright but nothing special and the ones that go over your head actually snapped.
After a new pair and will give them ajay threes a try I think, decent reviews and a good price at £30
Seriously LOL at the Samsung and Skullcandy comments.
Checkout Brainwavz M3
Edit in before the real jokes come out and someone recommends getting a pair of beats hahahahahaha.
Have a look at the Razer Moray in ear earphones, they come with a little carry case, different bud sizes, and an airplane adapter. The sound on them is pretty good too. However i could be recommending them, for the simple fact that im a Razer fanboy

That app might work but it's appears to be mainly for the one button headphones while the Fours have 3, yet it seems only one works in Android.

I'm getting tired of going through headsets like crazy. I was buying some cheap ones on ebay for $7 that would last me about a month, so I decided to spend the extra $ and get some M6p's. I'm on my 3rd replacement set.. They have lasted me around 30 days. I just received my most recent replacements yesterday. Upon my first use this morning, the skip/play/pause button stuck in.. If I just wiggle the wire, it skips/pauses/plays. Now I'm going for a 4th set, and I'm sick of this...
Can anyone recommend an over the ear w/ inline mic with play/pause/skip?

I can't recommend an over-the-ear pair over earbuds, but I can recommend the LG HBS-700 Bluetooth Headset...
I've had it since the beginning of December 2011, and it still works great. Sound quality is surprisingly good, and all the controls work... It has separate volume control, so these things get LOUD. and the neck piece vibrates whenever you get a call, and it is very much sweat resistant. I do some crazy workouts with these earbuds, and they are still working fine. The battery lasts a long time too, I charge it like once every two weeks.
Don't buy his headphones ^^ , they are LG haha I'm jk but u should try the zagg smartbudds for working out. They are amazing and durable. Had them for 4 months now and if u look online for discount codes. U can get em for 25$ instead of 50

I bought a set off amazon for cheap but were fake, real obvious fakes even though their description said originals.
they were labeled "Samsnug" was the first give away, I compared them to my originals, the cables were not flat, the fakes are round originals are flat.
other give away, is the strain relief at the end of each ear bud was longer, the real ones are shorter.
I gave up and bought a set off ebay from a S4 owner who didn't need them, they were originals with new extra set of ear buds.
Cost me 11 bucks. there are a lot of them on ebay but really hard to tell if they are fakes unless they are come out of the S4 box.
Good luck.

The samsung earphones are not good anyway. I'd rather get smth else really.
Did anyone ever find a place to get these? I'd really love to get another set... Mine are almost shot.
Why stay with OEM headphones that came with the phone? They're usually ok, but not necessarily specially tuned for the audio drivers in the device to provide the best experience. I have a cheapo $20 pair of SoundAura BT headphones and a pair of Puggs in-ears. With Viper4Android I've blown my friends Beats and Skullcandy's out of the water with clarity and bass. In this age of mods you really can have just about any set you want and tune them yourself with apps. You can't really expect original phone headphones to stick around too long after the device is released.

I've tried several different (cheap) ear bud headphones and they all suck, I was so surprised when I tried the ones that came with this phone they really were great, they stay in my ear when I turn my head, the plug end hasn't failed after years of use, they sound good enough for me and much better than any other cheap ones I've tried... they even block out other sound from the surroundings surprisingly well. I dunno all around I was just really impressed with these ones -- all the little details.
They seem to me like a legitimate product of their own rather than some worthless value add that doesn't add any value.
Really though I was just hoping I'd get lucky and find someone on here that happened to have a pair laying around they didn't want!
