Headphones

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:

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.

I've always heard they were nothing but the name. They supposedly have poor build quality with a big price tag. Slapping Dr. Dre on it sells itself, lol.

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.

Best In-ear Headphones (use at gym)?

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.

Quality headsets with mic

I'm looking to buy a quality headset with mic that is compatible with the G2x.
Any good ones you guys know about?

My buddy loves his Skullcandy FMJ (full metal jacket). A bit pricey for me.

Meelectronics m6p. 15 bucks and the sound is amazing and has a mic that works very well. I read a lot of reviews these are the best you can buy for the price and can compete with headphones that cost 10 times more.
had them since the phone came out in april. Great bass production.

They have an innovative slide system that allows them to fit around your neck so you don't have the weight of the cord pulling on the buds, and it just gets better.

I'm thinking of the s4a for a birthday gift. It's not released yet, but Klipsch makes consistently awesome headphone. I will let you know if I go through with it.

Seconded, any of the Beats line with control talk have a mic and sound incredible matched up with VooDoo based kernels

Just got the s4i
Last night I bought the klipsch image s4i. The package says that it is only compatible with iPhone. I was able to get it to workcfor the g2x as well. Out of the box the phone works with both the headphones(excellent quality and sound isolation) and the microphone. The center button works for starting stopping the music as well. The only difficulty I am having is that the back forth buttons do not work. One solution is to use an app that adds extra functionality to the center button. I now have my phone working with double tap of center button, single tap, triple tap and long tap. As long as you can remember that it's an excellent choice. I switched back to weapon rom to get better stability(I love muiu but it's still not 100 percent stable and audiolqyback was jittery) and I have awesome sound,cstavility and a headset that whe. You tap and hold will voice search. Well worth the investment.

I'm giving these a shot.. How have they held up for ya? Some great reviews out there, and some poor reviews... but their customer service seems pretty on top of honoring the 1yr warranty. Looks like they had a bad manufacturing run on these that were corrected. Anyone else use these? you likey?

Front and back buttons NEVER work. This is known. But the middle one does, especially well with Poweramp.

I'm a big fan of my T-Mobile earbuds with the flat, "tangle free" cord. Sounds great, works perfectly, and tangle free. After regularly buying cheap ones from deals that would get shorts within a couple monthes (like the MEElectronics M6P several times) I finally ran down to my local t-mobile store and grabbed a pair of these. Last pair went thru the laundry and died, went straight back and got em again.

ultimate ears 350vm
Just bought the Android version of the Ultimate Ears 350vm - see amazon - http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-985-...IDY2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1336591571&sr=8-1
or logitech directly: http://www.logitech.com/en-us/ue/ue-earphones/devices/ue-350-vm
I have not finished burning them in yet, but they are pretty great - - better than the other head phones I had been using:
Sennheiser mx400 (http://www.sennheiserusa.com/media/productDownloads/productSheets/MX400_ProductSheet.pdf)
Sony MDR-E821/E828 ( http://store.sony.com/webapp/wcs/s...10151&langId=-1&productId=8198552921665379447)
JVC H-AFX35 (http://support.jvc.com/consumer/product.jsp?modelId=MODL028680)
Sure, it's the only one which has mic and mic controls, and it is way more expensive ($50) than the others.. but it is a nice set of in ear buds.
They are rather small so very light, and come with 5 sizes of silicone canal adapters. It takes a bit of playing, but once I got the right fit - they work GREAT. Good sound isolation, much to the chargin of wife and child ( I work from home, so they have to tap my should to
350vm initial impressions, on my G2X running Stock 2.3.4 (21y firmware):
The volume control is built inline, so it works well.. I leave it at max for the most part.
Using Google Play Music, single tap on the button pauses just fine, double tap skips to next track.
I have trouble with double tap - the advance is not immediate - so I have to be patient...
Otherwise, a great set of head phones.
I'm looking forward to using them the next time I travel - that is what I really got them for -- listening to music in the airplane.. the sound isolation is great ..
Bass response is good -- not too much, sounds good to me.. like a proper pair of over the ear (aka supra-aural) -- but in the smaller, more convient factor of ear buds.. (IEM/canalphones)
blablahblah..
If I have to replace these 350vm, I'll try the MEelectronics m6p or the a151 (http://www.meelec.com/category_s/329.htm) -- depends on wether or not i feel the mic is necessary..
The Kiplisch s4a are supposed to be good.. but .. it's just too much money for my taste.. at least at the moment.

I personal like the skull candy 50/50 quality construction and durable for a pretty affordable price i think they run like 39.99 most places in the us... All you are really paying for with Bose is the name it's not a professional quality product, i use the 50/50 for my home studio mixing as well as for my phone.

On the website, it shows someone wearing them as if they have memory wire. The specs don't say anything about that. Does it have memory wire for over the ear wearing? Mine fall out all the time working out..

Headphone Upgrade

Hi guys,
I need a headphone upgrade, stock ones died on one channel and arn't top notch.

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

This, this and this. I recently bought the Fours and it's the best pair of in-ear headphones I've ever owned.
Definitely true about PowerAMP, I even combined it with Volume+ set to Beats Emulation, so happy.
Thanks for recommending the a-Jays, I bought my Fours for £20 off e-Bay full with the over-kill packaging.

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.
Haven't tried CyanogenMod yet, it might fare better there.

Bluetooth Headsets

EDIT: Opinions on Jabra MOVE Wireless Bluetooth, Amazon has black starting at $60~ Worth? (awe reviewers show cushions ripping open)
I checked my email for promotions and had these from Groupon, thought I'd pass them along. If you have any comments / opinion or any other BT Headphone deals please post.

I used to have a pair like these, it would eventually hurt the back of my ear after long time use.
https://www.groupon.com/deals/gg-motorola-buds-sf500-universal-bluetooth-in-ear-headphones-with-mic
Most in ear tend to also hurt after a while of use, these are black version. (Same price at walmart and Amazon)

So researching and most reviews are saying that the jaybird bluebuds x2 are the current best.
My dog ate my LG tone pro hbs 730 which are older but good.
Trying to figure out best ones to get. Want great sound and something great for running as well. I hear the x2 cover all that. Specially with the comply buds that come with it now.
The other was considering as the new lg infinim. Up to other suggestions as well.
Sent from my non-Mega loved v10 H901.

I'd like to get on ear or over ear, something small tho. The in ear tend to hurt me, on ear might if they are too tight.

I recommend the hbs-810 or second gen tone ultra. Half the footprint of the tone infinim with retractable earbuds. The x2 is my best sport headphone set but isn't ideal for office environments. That is where the tone shines.

Yeah I decided on the x2. Man do yet sound great with v4a and dolby atmos running. I don't really walk around or use them in an office environment. Mostly use to run and workout and when ride the bike.
Going to keep testing as I have 40 days to return

In that case the x2 is the best hands down as long as you get a good seal. I love their warranty and how low profile they are. Glad you found what you were looking for!

EDIT: Opinions on Jabra MOVE Wireless Bluetooth, Amazon has black starting at $60~ Worth? (awe reviewers show cushions ripping open)
I checked my email for promotions and had these from Groupon, thought I'd pass them along. If you have any comments / opinion or any other BT Headphone deals please post.

I used to have a pair like these, it would eventually hurt the back of my ear after long time use.

Most in ear tend to also hurt after a while of use, these are black version. (Same price at walmart and Amazon)

These are the same as above but white version.

first one I found at amazon, $17.95: http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset-Microphone/dp/B002BH3I9U
second one is exactly the same price at amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Univ...p/B00H0CV9TM/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8
I figured the last one had the same price. Groupon is great if you want to find a place that has deals on nails or hair or a spa. They've pretty much been selling schlock for years now in terms of merchandise.
Just my opinion, you may have another.

These are the ones I bought in 2013 from Amazon, the price has gone down since I bought them and I think there's newer version out there, but mine are amazing. There's another version where the buds retract into the headset, I still like the ones I have and still work great after 2 years:

wow, for $159, they better be good. I'd be afraid to lose them in NYC.

Ive found expensive bt headphones dont sound much better, but perhaps last long fit btter look better or have more features.
My point wasnt to buy them on groupon or that they had any btter price, but more a comparision at sub $40-50 worth buying~
Ive seen some recomendations, features, look and talk about how it feels after wearing for a while. Once i can determine decent ones ill search for pricing.

For more proof and excellent reviews of headphones in anyone's price range

The Jabra MOVE got reviewed as good sound, but on Amazon everyone posting pictures after 2 weeks the foam breaks.
How's the LG Gruve Wireless Bluetooth Headset?

If you have or haven't read, that entire article list the best Bluetooth headphones per price tier. So whether you get the move or revo, there are other excellent choices at, above or below that price.
