For that cheap I dont know...In the past I had a knock off sony ericsson bt headset. Even though it looked like the OEM product, the unit itself was a copy and was not up to par. It worked, but not to specs.
Looking at the headset itself it looks legit. But being from China, it's a crapshoot.
I have the black ones, but I bought it stateside. I guess you can try and report back if you are brave enough

HD2,HD3,HD7
I didn't know there was an HD3

They do look very much like the ones that came with my XE (except the XE ones are black. Apparently the XL ones are white).
However, there's no small ziplock bag of ear tips/clothing clip in the photo.
Also take a look at their negative/neutral feedback. Lots of complaints that the seller has fake stock of various items.
My guess is that they're using a photo of genuine headphones but you'll receive something different...
I'd avoid. In fact, i'd always avoid buying 'genuine' items from China/Hong Kong/Thailand etc.

I ordered these ones:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/20068164169...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_5063wt_1185
Don't even know why I waste so much money especially when I'm in school. This is going to bite me in the ass one day.
These seem real enough, they even have the "urBeats" on them. I don't think "iBeats" with the XE headset controls exist.. so I trusted this seller enough and if I find out it's fake or something then I'll deal with that then!

i ordered today one of these:

Cool deal! Too bad I paid almost double for it lol...but it was someone here in the US, so I was cool paying for the peace of mind I guess
EDIT:
Just a fyi for people who use the ibeats. This app may work for other headphones with button/mic combos like the beats headsets.
I use this free app called jays headset app. This can be found in the market and can make your earbuds/headphones have volume control with a long press/two press combo to increase and decrease the volume.

You are a saint for finding this

Very tempted to get this, are these original for sure? I see the guy has bad rep for listing items OEM and selling fake ones.

to be honest I compared them to rezound beats that my friend has and they are 1000% the same

Good in copying, the Chinese...
Hope you're right, though.

Android device as a PMP?

Anyone got a suggestion on some good android phones I could look up ebay/craigslist to use as a PMP?
My budget is $100 or so, and I realize I won't get top of the line, but used is fine.
A used Optimus One on various prepaids seems to go for $40-$50, so I'm hoping for something that has a tad better spec.

Pick up a used vibrant and enjoy awesome sound quality with a voodoo sound kernel.. Can be bought for like 125 if you catch a deal.

There's a Samsung Galaxy media player...but it's a bit pricier.
Does it have to be a phone?
Why not just buy a PMP? Where's the necessity that it be Android?
If you looked hard enough, you could probably find a Philips for that price, especially if you're willing to buy used.
But my thoughts are, well, if it doesn't need phoning capabilities, you could probably get more GB for your buck.

You would think, but it's not true. Most MP3 players in the $50 dollar range suck.
Also the galaxy players are, as you saw - pricey. I'm looking for something cheap.
And I want it to be an android because I have a galaxy nexus, so I own paid apps that I could use on it as well.
I found a galaxy S for $65 on craigslist, seems like a pretty good deal as long the phone isn't in terrible condition.

Sounds like you could just use your Nex, but instead you'll then be carrying around a lot of extra functionality (carrying a Nexus around to be used as a phone/surfer and another Andy as a PMP), but I'm not one to judge. To each his own. If it were me, I'd buy another battery for the Nex and use the sh*t out of that! The PPI-count on that thing is sensational!!
An HTC HD2 may be just the device for you, but scoring one for a C-note will be a challange, I'd bet. Hack Android onto it, and BAAAAMMM!!

don't get htc, the audio sucks, even on beats models
(sucks in a comparative sense, not subjective)

Yes I realize my Nexus is more than capable
I'm looking for a cheap alternative mostly because I will be abusing it more and I want to keep my expensive phone pristine.

The sound on the HD2 sucks. Even with decent headphones. It's not bad over BT stereo, though, considering how bad BT stereo is to begin with. I'm not really an Apple fan, but the iPod Classics have a tremendous sound and enormous capacity. I use a 160GB iPod to tote around a chunk of my collection. The built in EQ is pretty handy as well. You can pick them up used for less than $100 also.

Well I picked up a bootlooping galaxy S for $40. Hopefully I can get it working
The stock recovery was corrupted so the volume keys weren't working.
Oh yeh, got me a working galaxy S! Sure beats any $40 PMP out there!

Well the guy posted for $70, I talked him down to $40. He didn't sound like he had any clue what was wrong with the phone, which probably helped.

The sound is not very good, my G4 bud's are much better..

My G4 and G5 never came with headphones..

Headphones for my U12+

Hello U12+ users!
Since the standard in-ear headphones that came with my U12+ have quite a short cord that prove to be unusable for me, I'm looking for good over-ear headphones, preferably bluetooth, for my U12+. I can't figure out which ones would be usable, since there seem to be 'Android compatible' headphones which suggests there are 'Android incompatible' headphones
Is there anyone that can give me more info about this? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I'm using Beoplay H9i, works great for me. Also I have tested my secondary Beoplay E8 (inear). We have in our office Sennheisser PXC550 and Momentum, both worked great.
PS I don't even know there is some Android Compatible. But everything I tested works fine.

Thanks!
Though I think my wife will divorce me as soon as I tell her I'll be buying headphones about half the cost of the already not too cheap phone. :laugh:
Any less expensive options?

Haha, I know that feeling. I don't bought them aswell, I was just lucky thanks to my job.
Well, I recommend to try something like this: Sony MDR-XB950B1. I think overear headphones by sony can provide you good price and good quality as well.

That looks like a good deal indeed.
I think I'll be getting those then.
Thanks for the input.
