Hello guys, just got this phone 4 days ago & I'll have to say I'm in love.
As a music lover, my only issue - for now lol, is that i got the best earpiece sound with LG quadbeat earphones for my V10 which got missing this morning.
I want to get a recommendation for the best earphones (better than the included OEM) for this phone.
Thanks
Just get some quadbeat 3 on eBay again. I bought some for 10€ since i had to send back my v10
Using Sony XB50SB, which costed about 50 Eur, so far enough satisfied. I have the feeling that the phone is not pushing them to their max capability. Any improvement sugestion is welcome!

Hi folks,
apparently the headset that came with my XDA II device and which I use for listening to my music is in trouble. The left earphone is not working correctly. Most of the time it's completly mute but sometimes I get it to work by playing around and bending the cable right above or beneath the mike (the little thing you use to adjust volume, take and end calls). So I figure it's a loose connection/broken cable. To check on this I'd like to open the microphone part but I don't know how. It looks rather fragile and I don't wanna make things worse.
So what I need is a hint how to safely open this device. And if all fails maybe an address where to get a new headset. There are only a few original headsets on ebay and o2 Germany doesn't sell these headsets.
Thanxs for your replies.

the headsets on ebay work perfectly well and are a real bargain. bought 5 pcs for 1€ each recently, hope those will last as long as my xda (waiting for it to return from rma).

Searched for XDA 2 headset on ebay UK. Got nothing but the official ones selling at 8 pounds each which is still a major rip off.
Anyone here know of any places to get the official headset (or even an unofficial one that has the mic/control buttons on it?) for a cheap price?
The crappy Samsung earbuds that come with the awesome S6 just don't cut it for me. I've owned several HTC devices past years, and always kept their earbuds when I soled them.
Just bought couple more on eBay. HTC earbuds.
But as the S6 has exceptional sound coming from the headset jack, what earbuds are the best out there? For reasonable price! Not Sure category ☺

I've always -really- liked skull candy. not that expensive, but you have to accept theyll break in 3-6 months
Sennheiser and Audio Technica make some nice ones. You get what you pay for.
There are some real good deals to be had in the china market for ear buds if you know what your looking for. Buds that cost fractions of the big names and sound just as good if not better. Have a look at this thread on Head-Fi.org

I personally own the Havi B3 Professional 1 Version( can buy on amazon) and the Original Xiaomi Piston Earphone Updated Version Browns (these will blow your mind for $20) both are fantastic.
Monster Turbines have been great to me, excellent bass and mids and highs.
The Klpisch S4 sound fairly good for their price. They are quite easy to find for $40 -$50 on sale.

When you sign into galaxy apps
Samsung emails you a 30% coupon.
Use that on the Samsung site to buy the headphones that came with the s5 and s4
Those are actually really nice and at $20 after coupon they are a steal
Mine lasted me on average 14 months
(I've bought many for friends and family)

Anyone buy one? If yes, how is it?
Just ordered one, I'll post a review when it arrives.
Im waiting for mine too.
Received yesterday...
Sounds great, no distortion at all on high volume, but the battery could be a bit stronger. After the first full charge I had 3 hours on 3/4 volume.
I've got mine from my carrier to my M9 for 10.000 HUF (approximately 40USD) so its worth the price.

Just received mine this afternoon. Typical Harman Kardon quality. Rich sound, multiple connectivity options and excellent build quality. Volume is sufficient to fill a large room.
i plan to buy also. waiting for you review..:good:
After a few week of usage i have to say its still very good. Sometimes i can hear sounds that newer heard before in a music.
The only weak point imho is the battery.
On highest volume i can reach only 4 hours. But if you have a portable battery you are good to go.

Where are you guys ordering these things? I can't find them anywhere online.
I bought mine from my carrier with my M9.

Damn, I found a couple on eBay but doesn't seem to be available for order in the US. It's listed on the HK web site but no way to order one that I can see.
Edit: Grabbed one of the ones on eBay. Apparently this is a "limited release" and HK is only selling them through select carrier outlets.
Got mine on eBay also.
Just got mine. Really nice speaker. Excellent build quality, great sound and volume for the size. Comes with a nice rigid case as well.
Not exactly cheap (got mine for $169), but you get what you pay for with this stuff.
hello guys i got a headphone from china which is so well build and gives so fine sound.
if you want to share this with you
http://www.gearbest.com/earphones/pp_182191.html
i got it from here because they only sell 100 % original to good prices
ah pay with paypal so you safe twice
I guess you're a child or young teenager since you bought the "Youth" model. Those probably wouldn't be the best option for the majority of XDA users, though.
In my opinion, the best Xiaomi earbuds are these http://m.gearbest.com/earphones/pp_169225.html, though I definitely would NOT buy from that site...
I bought a pair of the piston 3 lately, really good stuff for only $17. Bought 3 more for my coworkers and an extra pair as backup. Got them from geekbuying, and it shipped to me in NYC in a week.

I use the piston II inner ear phones. Awesome for the ridiculous price and a darn site better than the Seinheisers AND BOSE I have.
For headphones I use Sony MBT 10DBR
i have the piston 3 after a month the head jack comes off although everything still works fine but it looks ugly now. i would not buy them again even though they sounded great. i have the piston 2 it lasted over 6 months.
I've just pulled the trigger on a new V30+ (at a great price) but it doesn't come with a set of the B&O headphones (go figure). I'd like to get a set of matching B&O's to take advantage of the DAC.

My question is whether anyone has a spare set of these B&O headphones that they'd be willing to sell? Thx.

You know you don't need those specific headphones to use the DAC, right?

In the U.S. the V30+ came with "LG" quad headphones, not the B&O branded headphones.

Yep, totally. I need some new in-ears anyway so I just fancied having the whole complete original set. I've heard they're quite good....annoying they don't come with them. They do come as standard so I'm assuming they're taking them out before shipping.
Request still stands though, happy to pay a fair price for an unused set of them.
They're not taking them out. Until a couple of weeks ago, Eglobal was selling the Hong Kong version, it included the B&O earphones.
The versions Eglobal is selling right now are indian variants of the H930DS, those just don't include the earphones for India market (check your software version, it should be Vxxx-IND-xx).
But hey, you get VoLTE out of the box! HK versions don't have that.
$20 and they're yours. I've worn them for about ten minutes btw.
I have a new set in the box. Let me know if you are still interested.
Thanks.

My 16y old daughter took my brand new B&O to make a call and munched the wire while talking and now it's broken...
I compared these headphones to other models from different manufacturers.
They play on the V plan. They are good for OEM, but compared to other headphones they are rather weak.
I think that you can buy much better headphones for 25-30 USD.
For example, RHA MA390.

*whispering* I bought a V30+ just a few days ago from BH photo video and they came with the B&O.
------------- EDIT --------------
@ChazzMatt, sorry, I was wrong, it is a pair or LG.

Right. In North America LG doesn't have the rights to B&O distribution.
I feel the B&O headphones are super weak (do not trigger high impedance mode) and very flat sounding. Anyone else experience this problem? I will gladly sell my gently used B&O's. Also have one brand new in box. Worst sounding earbuds ever.
The included B&O earbuds don't even come close to any of the retail B&O earbuds.. The only thing B&O to them is their name.. For the rest they can at best be considered as cheap OEM freebees. Don't waste your money on them. Instead get yourself Etymotic ER4 XRs. They do way more justice to the internal quad-dac....
(Or alternatively get a good pair of wireless cans such as the B&W PX or Sony WH-1000xm2)

Get BeoPlay H3 in ear wired. I own them for nearly 2 years and they're gorgeous, hit the floor many time and still working fine, wire condition is perfect. These added to LG V30 are rather low class earphones and I'm quite surprised that they're branded by B&O, it only works against them. If earphone cost 25$ you can be sure that it has nothing to do with real Bang and Olufsen sound quality.
