Whats everyone using with their Charge?? I'm looking for in the ear headphones with a mic. The plantronics ones I have now don't work well with the phone, mic does not work
As far as normal headphones, I use Sennheiser headphones. Sound quality is great. I haven't been looking for a pair with a dedicated mic tho. Sounds like it would be a good investment.

Thanks!! Do you use any of these? The Etymotic M3's look nice but I'm worried they won't work well with the Charge.
I use the headphones that came with my Galaxy Tab (they have a mic too). They are the BEST pair that came with any device I have ever owned. Other than that, I use a pair of Bose around-ear headphones (can't remember the model)

I am using the following headset on both my phone and my wife's phone...she never uses bluetooth (I use a Moto S9 and a Jawbone ERA) so she is very particular about her headsets. I purchased then on a Newegg deal for $9.99 apiece, but they are currently out of stock and discontinued at Newegg. For $10 they don't sound bad for music or streaming IMO.

+1. I love these head phones. For ones with a little less bulk, I use these.

I have the ones w/o the mic and just use a bluetooth headset. But these have the best sound quality I've ever heard from in ear headphones. You can find them cheaper elsewhere though, for under $100.
I use Shure SE530 earphones, if you're going to have a phone with a killer Wolfson DAC like the Charge then you should definitely be using something that's at least pretty decent.
Google Music's quality seems a bit suspect to me, though. Aside from general glitchiness and the skips/pops that seem to occur, I'm finding that the same songs sound cleaner when played through PowerAmp. Not sure what's going on here but if they're really streaming 320kbps MP3 then it leaves a lot to be desired.
I've got my Radius Atomic Bass headphones and their petty awesome sounding.

You can get Etymotic HF-3s from Amazon for $100. They work great with my Charge, but the button doesn't always work the first try when I use it to pause/resume/reverse/forward my podcasts. The sound is great, people tell me they can hear my clearly, and they are Etys! Enjoy the isolation and ability to get by on lower volume while hearing clear details through them.
I use Skullcandy headphones(both in ear and over ear) . I forgot the models, though.

I use a pair of Beats on ears. Hate away, audiophiles but they're the most comfy headphones I've ever had on my awkward head. And with a treble boost from an eq, they're not muddy or overpowered with bass. Plus the mic and music control works.

I use Ultimate Ears Triple.Fi 10's for mine. Got them on sale for $90 on Amazon a little while back. Worth every freaking penny... If you ever see them on sale like that again, I would HIGHLY recommend it. Best earphones I've ever, ever used...

so do both of the above have buttons/mics that work well? I've noticed with two other headsets that they had problems with noise, in comparison with the stock headsets.
For example, using a skull candy (not the best) set, when driving the voice recognition would often not work. Whereas, the stock pair would.
If you get the UE TF10's on sale, you have to get a cord with a mic for it (cords are swappable/replaceable), but yes, it works great.

Klipsch s4a are specially made for Android devices. So you are good with the best noise canceling in ear buds.

My recommendation would be to plan on spending a little money. For one thing, it will be worth it and two it might take a couple sets of buds to find a pair that fit right.
Also, for me, I don't use a mic on ear buds. I'd recommend the Backbeat 903s for phone calls. They really work great this way and I was never a fan of bluetooth earpieces before them. They also double as headphones but I found when I had an iPhone that they didn't always work as well with the phone in the pocket. I just got my Skyrocket so I need to test them out. I usually use my PX 200 II Bs for music though because they travel well for over-the-ear headphones and sound better for music than the 903s.
Those S4s someone recommended do look nice though. Amazon has a good price on the non-mic version (just S4). I'm almost tempted to buy them
The Klipish image s4 look promising, I read the review for the non mic ones and look great. The s4a are even better since they have mic and volume controls compatible with android.

I like the Klipsch S4a (especially for the price), but it is NOT noise CANCELLING. It's noise ISOLATING.
On the SR (and SGS2 for that matter), the Klipsch doesn't shine though. The IEM already produces somewhat bright sound and muddy midrange, and the SR's tendency to muffle sound doesn't really help.

It all depends on what sounds good to you! I am a beats by Dr. Dre fan and have a pair of the pro studio. I do also have a BlueAnt headset for the calls. I find it really easy to slide the headset in and fold the one headphone back a bit.
It all depends on you! I personally would use the headphones of your liking and either hold the phone towards your face and you can hear what the other end is saying via headphones; or just grab a Bluetooth headset like I have.
I would also strongly recommend an a media player that has an equalizer. I personally use Winamp Pro. but there are tons out there!
Shure SE215
I love my Shure SE210's. I've had them for a few years now. Only problem is that they are strictly phones, and not a headset. The newer model has detachable wires that can be replaced with a microphone/headset wiring. The SE215 looks to be about the same price as the aforementioned Klipsch S4A. Plus, the Shure phones are higher impedence, and considering the headphone output on this phone is pretty high, I'm not sure how good those Klipsh will sound.
Guys. I want to buy a nice pair of bluetooth speakers for the galaxy royal. I am taking my kids for a picnic and it would be nice to have a set of portable speakers around.

Have look over this Link.
dude i checked that model . it is not available for now.
However i saw a DBEST model on flipkart and on ebay. has anybody tried it?
Let me recommend you the SE MW600 BT receiver. It's a small device with a jack output, so you can plug any speakers, headphones, or external amp. It has a Hifi DAC, and a outstanding battery life (I'm talking about weeks).
It also serves as a wireless headset as it has a built mic and volume/call/track buttons. There are newer models, but from my experience this one is very good. Around 40$:

Does anyone use a stereo bluetooth headset with the S4? I'm a runner and would like something nice to run with. I've seen great reviews on these LG sets that just rest around your neck, but I think those wouldn't be that good for running.
I have some JLab wired headphones that I love, so I was pondering their bluetooth headphones.
Any experience with these things?

That has the FM Radio in it. Is the unit able to broadcast the incoming BT audio over an FM signal or is it just an FM Receiver?

How does that "around the neck" design work for you? Is there any chance of it falling off while running or something?
I use these but the price will probably scare you: http://www.jaybirdgear.com/bluebuds-x-bluetooth-headphones/
I can tell that I am a very dedicated audiophile however, and these headphones are honestly the best sounding headphones I've ever heard (and this is coming from someone who didn't use to believe in earbuds at all before).

pretty secure, doesn't feel like it's gonna fall out cause the wires are short to the earbuds that go in your ears, and the neck thing is rounded so it hugs your neck.
Another runner and big fan of the Jaybird. No problem pairing and working with the S4.

I use the Novero Rockaway & the Jaybird Bluebuds X. i always had problems keeping headphones like these lodged in my ear canal, but with the extra ear piece that is incorporated with the Bluebuds, they have not come out of my ears since using them for about a week now. the sound on the Bluebuds is superior to the Rockaway but not as good as over the ear headphones. I dont do much running but these things dont budge while doing calisthenics and weight lifting.
I'm no runner, I have been using the Samsung hs3000 since my early s3 days and I can say it's one of the best headsets I have tried.
Pairs easily, sounds amazing, and has aptX.

I also recommend the Samsung HS3000, premium build, good audio quality, has apt-x, plus you have the option to use your preferred headset
I also have mw600 and I'm very happy with them. I'm no music quality freak but I did noticed that sound quality is pretty good even with stock headphones I received with mw600. Best thing for me is the ability to plug in any kind of output device which support 3,5mm jack. I've been using mw600 with my PC, MAC, iPhone and Android without any problems.

How does that one work? Does it just have a headphone jack that you plug regular headphones into? Then, what, it just dangles around your neck?
Also, what is aptX?

Although I can't comment or recommend any headphones, but I've read that the next update will solve the crackling issue, the i9505 variant has that update like 2 weeks ago. I actually used the stock headphones last night for some music, it sounded better than the ones from the s3, my opinion only.

I got cheapo skullcandies for 12 dollars and they work fine. Bought them when I was in the road since I left mine at home but I actually prefer it over the klipsh s4. Just by the $20 skulls and save the $80 for when you lose them.

I picked up a pair of these when I was in Japan, but I think you can get them through Amazon in other countries or on eBay. Comes with a volume slider (I prefer this to digital volume buttons) and the one button does work for skipping tracks (I use PowerAmp). Sound is decent, certainly better than the stock ones, comes in a variety of colors and certainly won't break the bank.

what's wrong with the ones that come with the phone? i end up using them more than my Shure SE535's!
My biggest concern was with something that stayed in the ear when running while having good sound for less than $50, as i tend to go through a set of headphones every year. Ive been very pleased with these from ME Electronics for. Great bass and very clear for the price, but more importantly they stay in your ear.
