Bundled headset / headphones - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I notice that the Z3+ / Z4 did not come with any bundled headphones. What are the chances of the Z5 premium coming with headphones? If not can you use any Sony headphones to utilise the noise cancellation?

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00HX9AJ5M works with all the current ones with built in noise cancellation, so would imagine they would work with the Z5 too. The listing on all the Z5 versions on clove.co.uk don't have any headphones listed as being included in box, so I would suspect there isn't going to be.

Does the Z5 actually state it has noise cancellation for the earphones, I've only seen it mentioned for the mic

No headset with Z5 Premium
Hi all. I just purchased a Z5 Premium and there was no headset or quick charger including..... Really really poor choice for Sony not to include headset and the quick charger. I'm going to contact Sony today abd complain about it. It can't be right that I almost paid 1200$ for the phone and then no headset. They could at least include a headset with a phone that expensive.

Got my z5 dual with headphones,quick charger and sony flip case. I am from India...may be offer is available for certain regions..

For the regular Z5 there was nothing else than the normal charger itself... however there is a dedicated space in the box for headphones nothing was there in Poland... Official Sony distribution
Ehh, it is wrong way of selling premium devices...

mine came with headphones, it came from Taiwan though

Mh750- headphones.
UCH10- quick charger.
Along with Sony flip case-SCR42

I love this unit. Connects to 3 devices, FM Radio, standard 3.5mm jack for using your own headphones.
I got myself a Rapoo H6020 from DX.com for about 35$, ofcource not comparible with the high end marketleaders, but i can certainly recommend this unit,
light, good sound quality (even some BOOM) built in microphone (didn't use it as handsfree yet).

Compatible earphones

Okay, this hasn't been the best day of my life. I was Skyping with my Z and in a hurry of having to do something in the house I pulled out my stock earphones (which model are they anyway, I can't seem to find the model version) out of my ears and while I was getting up I somehow pulled the wire and my phone fell down from my desk. When I picked it up, I had an unpleasant surprise awating for me. My earphone jack was broken from the fall, and is quite unusable now as the sound is distorted.
So, my question is, is there any list of compatible earphones for XZ? I tried my SE Xperia Arc's stock earphones, but Sony gentlemen decided to make them INCOMPATIBLE with XZ (which pissed me off good). I really need help as I'm using my XZ as an mp3 player as well.
Thanks in advance!
I think any iPhone compatible headset will do just fine.
I am thinking of buying Sennheiser CX 275s, but I'm not sure if they'll work with Z.

I own the Sennheiser Momentum and they work OK with the Xperia Z even though they are branded for iPhone use.
Mic works, control remote is limited though. Volume up and down don't work, but the middle button can be used to pause, answer, skip track, hang a call.
Most of the time u do will have issues with headphone that have a control or a hands free system in it. Unless they aren't the sony ones u might get in to issues but pretty much every other headphone that don't have a control or hands free on it should work flawless. Or Bluetooth Stereo headphone even with control and Hands free should work fine too. As long as they aren't branded from any other cellphone manufacturer. For example my beats headphone from htc have issues with the xperia z the Samsung headphones do too. But my other 2 pair that aren't branded from a cellphone manufacturer work fine.

[Z] Headphone selection (Z2 earbuds)

Hello.
I have Z for an year already and I'm still enjoying this phone much. One BIG disadvantage was very low volume with headphones.
I have one panasonic headphone, one from sony, and that one which came with it.
Recently my gf bought Z2 and I was testing it. Incredible device. But I'm not talking about that. I tested earbuds which came with Z2.
I found them ABSOLUTELY fantastic. incredibly high volume, best bass ever, best treble.
one little thing. if you want to make it work, you have to NOT plug it in phone completely. make sure you left some 0.2-0.5mm of jack outside of phone. it's not that comfortable, but headphones are worth of that (if you will not leave a bit of jack outside, you will hear only in one speaker)
MDR-NC31EM is name of it.
P.S. voice it has is REALLY good.

They work on Z like all others when I plug it completely, but you won't be able to use the mic or noise cancellation as the power source required for the noise-cancelling microphone is located in the earphone's connector. And volume of my old Xperia Z buds is fantastic and almost the same as with Z1 and Z2 buds (I'm a sony earbuds freak ). Better check your earbuds or phone connector.

quality headphones

hey guys just lost my note 4 samsung headphone that i was very happy with. what kind of headphones are you guys using and where are you guys getting them from. definitely not trying to break the bank
Klipsch S4A (II) because I read on What hifi that they have a good performance / price ratio. After almost 4 years of daily use and abuse still working perfectly.
I use Xiaomi Piston 2.0, cheap and they do the job.

As an IEM I'm using the Ultimate Ears UE900, On Ear Beyerdynamic dt1350 and at home Beyerdynamic T90.
Both UE900 and dt1350 I'm using with Viper4Android and headphone correction filters
Been running my Shure 215s for a few months now. Fantastic IEMs with detachable cords and a nice warranty. Can go wrong for $100.

There're two models. I have second version which is better. (less likely to break the cables)
For over-ear headphones I'd use my current (albeit pricey pair)- Sony MDR 1RNC
Alternatively for in-ear headphones, try Sennheiser Momentum IN Ear earphones- they're fantastic and you can get them with an in-line mic.
Just make sure you buy the ones specifically for Android as there is also a pair compatible with Apple in line controls.

First, do you mean Headphone or Earphone?
If you mean Earphone, do you need inline remote?
If you need the remote, Samsung's OEM Earphone is quite good.
Earphone
Budget : Mid-Hi
Sony Earphones is great, just browse online for your preferred price/quality ratio.
Philips Earphone. Also browse online for price/quality ratio
Sennheiser Earphones
Headphones
Budget : Hi
Sony MDR-10R (with inline remote)
Sony MDR-1R (with inline remote)
Sony MDR-1A (with inline remote)
Sony MDR-1RBT (Bluetooth with remote)
Sony MDR-1ABT (Bluetooth with remote)
Philips Fidelio Series
Sennheiser Momentum Series
Logitech Ultimate Ears Series
I'm using Sony MDR-1ABT for now & it costs around USD400.
I get it from an online shop in my country.
I choose Sony MDR-1ABT because :
It has great battery life, around 30 hours of nonstop music play
It has a great audio quality
It has cable option
It support High Fidelity / High Definition audio (24Bit 194KHz) through cable
It support near HiFi quality through Bluetooth
Great look
Comfortable Earpad for long time usage
Can be used for answering phone
It has NFC for quick connect
Battery can be replaced if it's broken (non user replaceable though, but I can do that )

I'm currently using a pair of Ausdom earphones. I used to hunt good quality earphones at cheap price from SlickDeals.
When on the road, I need something reasonable in every aspect, reasonable in price and performance. The earphones that meet those criteria for me are Sony MH-1 and Xiaomi Pistons 2.1. The Sonys are a little more bassy, but the older, cheaper models (the MH-1Cs I think) need a OMTP to CTIA adaptor (dirt cheap) to work correctly. The Xiaomi pistons are incredibly beautiful to me, have great feel and built quality and they are equally cheap.
When at home, I use the Nokia WH-930 by Monster, good enough for me.
Here is the king of low budget earphones : https://www.monoprice.com/Product?p_id=8320
They are $5 right now and according to several tests, you will hardly find anything better for less than $30.
I am using the stock ones and they're quite good.
I find the stock ones pure garbage. Using shure se215.
I have been using the new Vmoda wireless. Awesome bluetooth headset!!

RE-400 by HiFi-man.
About $100 CAD and sound amazing.
Just brought Aukey Bluetooth 4.1 earbuds. Good sound quality and nice texture. Now £12.99 with code. You could find the code on the amazon product page.

SONY Xperia XZ3 MH750 headphones In the XZ2 Box..

Just Unboxed my Gorgeous Green/Blue XZ2 from O2UK...
I was a bit disappointed to see that SONY have included a pair of MH-750 In-Ear Buds in the box... which not only came with the original Z3, but also have a 3.5mm headphone jack plug on them..
Yes I got a 3.5mm - usb-C dongle in the box, but Ide hoped SONY wouldve made more of an effort with them..
Did anyone else (from ANY region) get anything different.
Cheers
Same here (Slovenia) - eu...
Last good headphones came with Z2 ?
Be glad you got something extra in the box.
I bought mine then it was pree release and got the worthless wireles in ear.
They drop connection and also have a sound delay in them.

Did some tests with my xz2compact and my good old beats in-ear headphones.
The HTC u11 usb c headphones work too but the sound quality and especially loudness are that bad that you can't really use them.
The U11 adapter works too and is even louder than the Sony one.
However i got the h.ear2 (mh900) as preorder bonus and prefer to use them i guess. At least when the question about carrying the bigger ones with me is not important.
Lets be honest: There will be no phone like the HTC 10 regarding sound quality. As they remove the headphone jack they would need to include a very good adapter or usb c headphones. Too much costs for almost every company. HTC includes some very good headphones and i heard razor dongle should be very good. But still i can live with that, it's still only a phone and i rarely use headphones (mostly on longer flights etc).
I bought the HTC 10 in-ear headphones to use with my XZ2 as my original ones were broken. The HTC 10 headphones work extremely well for my use with the XZ2 and those coming from the 10 should definitely use those. For those of you who haven't come from the 10, buy the headphones if you want a quality, cheap in-ear pair! They're around £20 on eBay.
Hmm, sounds like im not the only one... I also have the HTC U11, so I might try the dongle / ear buds from that.. as the dongle has a DAC built in... I guess I had hoped SONY mightve pushed something new out with a new flagship because SONY can be pretty expensive
A friend of mine told me that theres an offer in the UK with O2 for a FREE pair of WF-1000X in-ear buds somewhere
Mhmmm i'm using the Xiaomi ProHD, using PowerAmp v709 and a 24bit 192khz Flac tune and it does sound kinda similar to my HTC10.
I'll try some Benches in the future....
This isn't a bad thing.
MH750 remains a very good in-ear.
I still have my first, from Z3 package.
Working perfectly well and sounding smoothly.
