I'm planning to buy a bluetooth headset and a bluetooth usb adapter, but so far I havent found much.
The BT headset will be mostly used for music and some talking, so i will need to have something in both ears and not just 1 like most bt headset.
And I also need a bluetooth usb adapter that i will use together with active sync and do file exploring, and syncing contacts etc. , normal stuff.
I appreciate every help I can get, links, answers, and also if you have used any of the BT headsets, and can write a mini review about it if you think its good, that would also be great!

Anyone that can help?
I don't have the Diamond (yet), but I am very happy with my Plantronics Voyager 855 Stereo BT buds. There is a primary earbud with a loop for use for standard BT handsfree, and a lighter bud with a thin wire for the stereo. I don't use mine too often as stereo, but when I do, the sound is quite good from my HTC Apache (although the ROM I'm using has an issue that requires deleting the profile and recreating periodically to avoid playback problems). As a handsfree, it picks up well and because the buds seal in your ear, it blocks out background noise well. I'm even able to use in stereo mode while mowing without adjusting the volume above a non-mowing comfortable level (again, because the seal blocks out most noise), so I don't destroy my hearing.
My only issue is that when I get sweaty, the buds don't hold their seal really well, so I'd have to occasionally push them back in for a tight seal. I also tried to do without the ear loop when only using the primary side for hands-free, but that lead to my trying to catch it when it fell out while holding my phone in that hand (which lead to a scratch on my phone and an ejected memory card -- oops). If you use the loop and play around with the different sized buds for proper fit, you should be quite happy. Also, if you look for deals, I was able to get mine for around $60.
Hope that helps. I've not used any USB BT adapters, so can't help there.
Thanks for a nice reply with much information, and I've seen a bit on that one before to, looks pretty nice, I've heard it wasn't that good for music playing, but how do you think the sound is? is it very high on max volum or not that high? and how is the quality, maybe compared to the earphones that are you got with the phone or some others if you got.
And when you talk in it, the sound is good on both sides? i mean, do you hear the other one good and does he/her hear you good?
Also, where did you buy it for 60$ looks like a nice price for those, only found them for over 100$ without looking to much yet.

The volume is good. As I mentioned, I mow the lawn with them, and I can hear my podcasts very well even over the sound of the mower. The music I've listened to has sounded good, but I didn't really do an objective comparison with other earphones/buds. I think the quality is about is good as you get from most 128 kbps MP3s. If the earbuds are properly seated in your ears, the base is quite good, but if they are not, they will sound a bit tinny.

I think the call quality is good. It picks me up very well even without extending the mic/slide, and nobody has complained.

I found it on n1wireless (http://www.n1wireless.com/search.cg...+voyager+855&gclid=COedzLn65ZQCFRKhxgodnCirSg), which has it for $69 new or $49 opened box. I bought an open box (which cost me a bit more IIRC).
Because the buds seal your ear canal for proper fit, one issue you might have is the reduction of background noise when not in use. It did take me a bit to get used to basically being partially deaf in one ear when one side was in. When I'm not trying to block out the sound, but am wearing the headset in expectation of a call, I sometimes intentionally break the seal so I can hear outside sounds better. My old headset was the more traditional outside the canal type, and that wasn't an issue, but then again, I couldn't hear anything in noise environs (and certainly not while mowing), so you've got to make that call.
I would REALLY recommend the Motorola S9 and if you can wait, the HD ones are coming out supposedly in September.
Thanks for both replies and i think im going for the plantronic one unless i find something else that is better.
About the motorola s9, i dont really want the looks like that one, I like it better when its a bit smaller and I'm able to have it in my pocket.
I've been looking for plantronics voyager 855 now, but most sites i've been on either dont ship to Norway or it costs like 40-60dollar for shipping.
Does anyone know a place with a low price prefer under 80dollar, with also free or cheap shipping, under 10 dollar atleast. I'm not gonna pay 60 dollar for the headset + 60 dollar for shipping
Cheapest place in Norway is 720kr which is about 150(+/-) dollar
Another option
I got the HBH-DS970 on ebay for £19 about 38 dollars with free postage to UK - they are absolutely amazing in terms of sound quality they look great and also have caller ID and music controls.
Does the music controller work in S2P?
Bump
Still trying to get the plantronics voyager 855, but haven't found any good prices yet, anyone about some places? with also either cheap or free shipping to norway
I use my headsets about 80% of the time... that said the oem headsets are not as loud as I would like them to be. They are ok and just that.
So I'm wondering if anyone knows of any good audiophile headsets for around $50-$70 bucks? I saw Zagg has some but I didn't like that the volume on the headset used a sliding mechanism. I would have preffered a rocker or buttons.
I liked the zagg because it had the mic and everything. I wouldn't buy a headset without the mic for my phone.
I do use the phone as a media player (movies & music) so does anyone have any sites I could check out?

Headphone.com is my go-to source for headwear. There's a bunch of headset options in your price range.
look up Grado. they make great headphones... they have entry levels in your price range if you find them on sale.
here's a good site:
http://www.audioadvisor.com/products.asp?dept=45&sort_on=title&sort_by=&view_all=true
they're also on amazon for the same price.
Check the impedance (given in ohms)
The volume issue most likely has to do with impedance. Headsets with high impedance will have less volume than those with lower impedence. Higher impedance models will tend to last longer, though. Just something else to keep in mind.

shure has headphones made for phone usage with mic and such built in.
I've got Ety's, Shure, v-moda, Sony, Bose, etc and I keep coming back to these:
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-DREX300i...TF8&coliid=I2UPGX0VBD6T7G&colid=18N1HGC0EJEDW
I have the ones without the inline control, but I think I'm going to get these or go back to Bluetooth with the Motorola S-10 HD when those come out on the 28th.
Will these work for sure on the G2?? Looks like I'm going with these...
The grado's are too expensive with a mic. Its redick and the reviews I have read aren't that positive compared to the sonys.

I haven't had a chance to use those specifically, as I have the "normal" version of those to listen with (and they sound great with nice, tight bass). I went to test my v-modas with my G2, and they keep launching Subsonic rather than the stock music app, but I assume that it works just like it did on my Nexus One. The volume buttons will NOT work on the Sonys (or any others that are for the iPhone 3GS/4), but the call button should work with the music player and answer phone calls.
Kicker makes some of the best headphones. I have the EB91M. The fit very deep in my ear and have tons of bass. I got the M series so I would have a mic to use with my G2.

I have V-Moda Vibe Duos for awhile now. They've went through 3 designs the past 3 years I think. So far, the headset works pretty well but the headphones are more tuned for dance music meaning you'd have to boost midtones in the EQ to flatten the spectrum you hear. Otherwise, it has been pretty good so far.
A pair should set you back $40 - $70 depending on where you find them sold.
whenever this conversation comes up, I have to pimp the Head-Direct RE0.
$350+ sound for ~$70
I currently use:
Sony Ericsson MW-600 Stereo Bluetooth headsets -- they have a mic clip with OLED display that clips to your shirt and a stereo jack to use any headphones you want to it. They work great. Also has an FM Tuner built-in if you want to use that and can pair to two BT devices at once.
I also use Sony MDR-NC7 noise canceling headphones. They are fairly inexpensive for what they are -- $50-$70 USD (I paid 50 at Target). They have decent noise cancellation and are very comfy for long airplane rides. Sound quality is above average. Great for the price, but its not the best.
As far as earbuds, I use the ones that come with my SE BT headset and they sound pretty good. Again, not great, but good enough. The real limit factor is the phone itself. It's not the best audio player in my opinion.
Where can I find these?

NOTE: There is no microphone, which might make this pointless.
Also, if you want accurate sound reproduction, these are EXCELLENT. However, if you need ear-drum bursting bass, look elsewhere. I can honestly say these phones are some of the most accurate I've ever used, and I've bought some EXPENSIVE cans in my day.
JL buds, they require 24hr burn in, the have a wireless phone with a mic, and the sound quality is amazing.

Hi Guys,
Can you please suggest me a good in-ear earplugs with mic for my N1.
I love heavy bass.
if the mic has song previous next controls would be great.
Budget < $40(with shipping) or a deal would be great.
these two are the candidates as of now

The bass isn't the best but not bad if you get them seated properly.
Don't listen to these people. Get the V-Modas. I got the M9P and I love it but if I could spend more, I'd get the V-Moda Vibe.

ordered ..thanks man.
Too late I guess, and out of your price range. But I use the Bose MIE2 mobile headset and the sound quality is just incredible with the nexus, and all functions work well. Price is high at 140 dollars but totally worth it if you have the means. Best accessory I've got for my nexus.
I am using the Radius Atomic Bass II and love it.
Have a few brand new spare ones. If anyone interested, please PM me.
Sony Ericsson MW600 bluetooth in-ears.
Good audio (well, it is Sony).
Music play/pause rwd/fwd. They even have an FM in-built radio. Fully functions as HF.
Happily using them for over a year now.

I tried out over the ears and didnt like the pressure on my head. i tried the lg tones 7 and 8 series and either the bluetooth didnt work well or the audio quality wasnt great. i want to try the infinium, the new lg tones but cant justify to pay that much for similar types of headsets on thr market.

Any BT that uses apt x codec will sound great for being bt headphones. The jaybird x are nice as they support apt x. As well as many of the LG tone headphones. I know the Tone 730 I used sounds great for music. I wonder if your old phone did not have apt x support. Not all of them do. What price range are you looking at?

i have the z10 currently therefore i am estatic to get my n4
my budget is up to 100 but the more cost effective, the better so i can spend more on other accessories!
I have own the jaybirds x for a while now. Couldn't be happier with them. Sure they are a bit expensive but in my opinion worth every penny. My backup pair is the Motorola s10. The range is awesome on them. I could run a 1/8 mile track and never lose signal with my device.
I love my jaybirds bluebuds x they have amazing sound
The jay birds are the best, i found the next best at a fair price to be the Plantronics backbeat 2 to be the next best thing. Great sound good range and small footprint. People have claimed poor battery life. I avagerage about 5 to 6 hours of constant use. They claim 4 to 6 from the company i believe. Can be purchased around 50 dollars.

I've tried two models of the LG Tone with my Note 2. At times they sounded horrible, and also frequently cut the microphone out; the people on the call thought I hung up but I could still hear them but they couldn't hear me. That seemed to be a software issue on the Note 2. And it also got to where the headphones were staticy or went out even though they were only 2 feet from the phone. A reboot 90% of the time fixed those problems for a while.
So far I haven't experienced that with the Note 4 thankfully.
I have a pair of these under the anker brand. Not bad for only 30 bucks that I paid for them.

I think my next headphones may be something like the samsung Level on set. Just waiting for a better price on them.
For those with the Jaybirds, how is the battery life?
AS long as they don't cut out/mute when wifi is on.. Had that issue with my Note 3 and LG HBS-750
I got the jaybirds. Love them. I've never ran them completely out of battery before charging, so I don't know the exact battery life. Have gotten over 5 hours many times though.

I want something unintrusive, to take advantage from android wear to actually control the device: so earphones, sound quality and almost no cable... right now the only thing I found are the Jaybirds.
JasonJoel, may I ask how fares the mic and noise cancellation system? The only complaint I've ever heard is about poor voice in-call!
I think the noise cancelation is pretty good. The mic quality is ok, but not great.

I just purchased the Plantronics Backbeats 2 about 3 days ago. Had never seen them but I went into Vzn to look for Note 4 accessories and saw the last pair hanging. I thought to myself, WOW only one pair....that's a good sign, right? lol. Anyway, I have to say I am satisfied with the sound quality. I love the pouch & fact that it is a on the go charger as well. I had plantronics before as a bluetooth earpiece about 10yrs ago and that was a good device way back then. I have issues with finding the proper sized buds to use. Oddly enough the large ones work best as fully plugging my ear for best sound quality. I am still gonna try Sammy' s Circle Gear though.

Thanks! I have the Platronics Backbeat Go 2, but the ear tips are terrible. There isn't any Comply Foam I can order either. No budget earbuds seem to have better fit and audio quality than the good old Klipsch S4a. I'll definitely pick these up to use with my Klipschs.
Since my vz note 4 didn't come with earphones, can someone recommend me some decent earphones (in black if possible) that has compatible mic and vol controls? I'm not an audiophile, so I'm not looking to spend a lot. Whatever that doesn't break down quick and has good audio for music/podcasts. Also, does anyone know the model number of the earphones that came with the note 4 for other carriers? Thanks.

Without the silicone the Samsung OEM are a little bigger (in picture white is Samsung) but for me they fit much more comfortable then the Samsung. Oh and as with most earpieces it comes with 3 sizes of silicone earpieces small, medium and large. I just looked up my invoice, I paid 20 euro for them here in the Netherlands, not 20 USD, so prolly you will by able to find them for 30 USD

I am currently using the earphones that came with the gs3 and none of the different earpieces fit me properly. Every time I moved my head, they would fall out. I am using different adapters and was hoping they would fit on the MM30G. If there isn't that much of a size difference, I think they might work. Yeah, I was going to ask where you got it for 20 cause I can't find them for that price. Closest I can find is like almost $60usd. Appreciate the quick replies, man. If I can find them for around $30, I just might get them. I will still look for some different earphones til then.

The build quality is better but the sound quality is not good. I started to use them first because they look ok and I was expecting them to be better but when I put on the backbeat fit for a workout I just understood how bad the sound is on the included earphones and how much of the music is lost. I am not an audiophile but I can notice obvious differences. And this is compared with bluetooth headphones which supposedly do not have as good sound as wired headphones.

Ohh...I guess I can ignore the newer OEM earphones then. I always wanted a wireless headset cause the cords always get caught on something. Only thing stopping me is that I just know I'll forget to charge them up. Do the bluetooth headphones eat a lot of the phone's battery?

Do you know if these headphones have different length wires for each ear? So you can put one of them behind your head. I recently got some popular Chinese ones that were recommended here. They sound great, but I really miss the behind the head wire feature.

Nope, wires are same length for left and right

Ohh...I guess I can ignore the newer OEM earphones then. I always wanted a wireless headset cause the cords always get caught on something. Only thing stopping me is that I just know I'll forget to charge them up. Do the bluetooth headphones eat a lot of the phone's battery?

I use mostly bluetooth headphones and I do not see it impacting the battery a lot but overall I am not so happy with the battery life of om Note 4 (910C model). Maybe because I have skype, lync, good and other stuff running all the time...
I also use the sennheiser mm30g... Only thing with them if you listening to music on full volume you need good quality audio, using Spotify definitely notice the difference between different audio bit rates... Also they have a great mic as I use it a lot and stock Samsung ones are junk imo for voice calls
I have these and love them.

Thanks, I'll look into them. If you took out the silicone pieces, are the parts where the audio come out the same dimensions as the oem Samsung earphones?
I'm coming from the gs3 earphones and heard the recent earphones are better so I thought I'd try them out. Thanks for your suggestions, but I am not looking for anything BT or over the ear type devices.

Jay birds are one of my favorites
You could try the Etymotic MC2 and HF2 models, which are made to be compatible with controlling Android phones. They have them at Etymotic website but also on Amazon.
Will give you a heads up that while these are nice my experience is that, for heavy users who dont baby these things and keep them a bag and all that, they get beat up after a while - the cords fray. But the sound is pretty good.
The jaybird bluebuds x are hands down the best earbuds I have ever used. Absolutely love them.

Yeah, I just got them and really like them too. I bought them from Amazon but interestingly, this showed up on the Amazon site page for these in the last day or two:

Thanks for the late suggestions, but I ended up getting the sennheiser mm30g because that was suggested the most. I might look into the jaybirds in the future, but they are too expensive at the moment.
