Suggestions on Bluetooth stereo headset - General Accessories

So I am looking for people who have real world experience with their Bluetooth headsets to help me out.
I am quite picky and finicky when it comes to my earpiece preferences.
Firstly I HATE this style of earpiece:

I have tried COUNTLESS tips, they simply do not work with my ear. they fall out and are uncomfortable.
These wired Bose headphones with the "winglet" and the soft "canal" thing are by far the most comfortable earpieces I have ever worn.
I bought them about a year ago wore them straight for about a month. I couldn't live with the "made for iphone" in line remote. So i returned them.
I would likely be interested in custom fit molding, if available.
Audio quality is also important to me, the bose i tried sounded great, but I have heard better. If I can achieve almost bose quality in a bluetooth package I would be very happy.
Volume is not so much a concern with me, that being said I do not want to strain to hear a soft spoken person on the other end of line.
I would prefer controls on the earpiece itself as opposed to the in-line behind the neck controls.
I do not mind the over the ear style in fact these were my go to headphones in high school
Battery life is not that big of an issue for me (obviously the longer lasting the better though XD) as long as they last 4+ hours I should manage just fine.
I am expecting some standard features as well. pause playback(where available) when answering call, relatively good noise cancellation, sweat resistant, etc.
All in all I am willing to spend $200-$300 for the perfect headset for me.
I appreciate any good reviews and suggestions,
thanks,

@thatsnailguy: have you tried Comply Foam Tips? I reviewed it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314567 Also, a lot of vendors starting to implement removable stabilizer wing tips (like BlueBudsX : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2234057 , although I prefer BackBeatGo 2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433088).

@vectron: Those seem very similar, so out of those two I would have to go with whichever one seemed to have the best audio quality. What is your opinion. BTW those reviews were really helpful.
The bluebuds look nice and with 8 hours battery life it sounds great.
Just one thing I cant get over, if I do decide to go with one of these I will have to try the Comply Foam tips, but I am very skeptical. I dont think that my ear canal is shaped to hold the buds up. Have you ever seen tips that are hollow and soft like the bose tips, not designed to be structurally sound but just to funnel the sound into the ear?

Oh, if you want more reviews, check out everything I have reviewed on XDA so far: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192333 - scroll down, a ton of stuff
Regarding BluebudsX vs Plantronics BBG2 comparison, scroll down my BBG2 review to the 2nd post where I made a more detailed comparison including similar Anker headphones as well (but those are very uncomfortable even for my big ear canals lol!!!). BBG2 has fantastic audio sound for wireless headphones, and their case has a built in battery charger so after you use it - store them back int he case where they will get charged up, additional 10hr of playback, including a rapid charge mode; plus they are cheaper. It's tricky with wireless headphones because sound will get compressed through bt protocol. New BT4.0 standard with apt-x technology helps to preserve the sound quality, but not in all the cases. Some vendors come up with their own "decompression" algorithm. I enjoyed quality of Plantronics better. But sound quality is always a matter of personal taste So I always recommend people to buy from Amazon for hassle free return if it doesn't meet your expectations.
Another thing to keep in mind, on the last page of BlueBudsX review, people started to post about Decibullz custom eartips: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2234057&page=6 - maybe that will be a solution for you, to custom mold your own eartip, and its not that expensive either.

Better Samsung OEM headphones on ebay

Hey guys, i bought these headphones http://tiny.cc/ptf4c , there Samsung OEM, the sound coming out these headphones is just mind blowing....the default headphones of the captivate not only are in ear(i hate does types) the sound coming from them is not perfect, so anyways get the ones from ebay, there cheap and the sound is just amazing!

You know I dont understand why the captivate didnt come with a headset with the volume control/skip-previous control. My brother has an HD2 and I really wish I had that.
for 4 bucks I might bite on those samsung ones as well because I am not a fan of the ones that this came iwth
I suppose it's all relative...
Yeah, I've never been a fan of IEMs. I just use my Yuin PK3s with it. I only listen to music on it, so I don't need a headset.
To be honest, I was impressed with the stock IEMs. For a free set of phones, they don't sound half bad, and they do a good job of blocking out ambient noise. I wear them in bed to listen to something calming when the AC in my room is on (it's super loud). I have yet to use them as a headset, but I've read that the mic is not great. I won't turn my nose up at free stuff if it's good quality.
I also use Yuin PK3s with my Captivate most of the time. They obviously sound leagues better than the Samsung IEMs, but as earbuds don't block any noise.

I had no issues at all with the cheap stock ones, I wore them on my flight to Vegas from DC for Blackhat/Defcon, cut down on most of the engine/plane noise.
The in the ear headphones are ok. But when in a house with 3 kids under 8 it gets a little dangerous cause I can't hear them.
But in some cases that may be a good thing. Lol.

Please tell if they control song selection, other than just pause, such as skip to next song.
i prefer in ear more than those regular one
it helps a lot when you are in a noisy environment,i.e. subway
you don't need to turn the volume to really high to get the music you wants! better for your ears!
the stock is okay but kind of annoying since it doesn't have the control with it
I actually like the stock headphones, except the thin cable is always winding it'self up.
And I doubt that any $4 pair of earbuds will blow any minds with their sound quality
I was rather impressed with the included IEMs... they have great sound quality, and its nice to see earbuds come with a phone. They even have acceptable low end frequency response (sounds like between 10-20 hz).
I'm a dj (hence my name) so i'm a bit of an audiophile, but I was totally fine going on a run using these as my headphones for pandora (since I can use the button to skip and pause).
doubletap the button on the included headphones to skip to next song
I prefer earbuds. These look pretty comfortable. I ordered a set.

Mine either... how did you guys get this to work on your cappys?
http://www.amazon.com/NuForce-NE-7M...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1282721778&sr=8-1
These are pretty much THE BEST earphones I've ever used!
The sound is perfectly balanced with bass you can pretty much feel
It's very comfortable (Though I'm using them with the sony hybrid silicon tips/comply foam tips)
The microphone is of excellent quality! (No one ever complains about voice quality when I'm talking to them on the phone)
And most importantly to me is that the button works with MixZing to play/pause and skip songs.
These ARE in-ears so most people (like the OP) either don't like them at all, or will have to take some time to get used to them.
Now, I'm not an audiophile, but I have tried other "mid-end" earphones *just to try something new* like the Klipsch S4i, Shure SE115+, Bose In Ear, BEATZ by Dre, and the Sony earphones for the Iphone and I always end up falling back to these. Thankfully Apple has a very good return policy ;D It also helps that the NuForce are about half the price of all of the other brands I listed here
What's also great about these is the company has a VERY good warranty. I've had them sent me a replacement absolutely free a couple times, because of the wires going out due to me mishandling them.

Wired Headset Recommendation?

Happy New Year everyone!
I've been searching for a specific type of headset to use with the ET4G for weeks without success and hoping someone might be able to help.
I'm a runner and for years have used these Sony clip on headpones:

I've found that they are the only style of headphones that don't keep falling out when I am out running and sweating (the ear bud style keep falling out, I tried the Motorola S10-HD Bluetooth headset but found that enough sweat will short out the Bluetooth receiver on the back). While the Sony headphones work fine with the ET4G, to use it for phone calls I have to hold the device up to my mouth; so I am looking for something with a built-in microphone.
Might anyone have a recommendation for a wired headset with microphone similar to the headphones pictured above?
Thanks so much for your thoughtful feedback!
I don't know how the skullcandy 50/50's are (w/mic) but the titans sound really great (no mic). The titans have good low end and good clarity.
I can't speak from experience this is just an idea of what "might" work, but the Monster iSport Immersion Headphones may be what you're looking for.
Pros:
Water proof (You can actually rinse them off)
Light weight
Built in cable controls
***Check for device compatibility first as they may or may not work with Android devices as far as the controls go***
Great build quality
Noise cancellation
Cons:
Noise cancellation (Not good if your running in areas with traffic as you'll need to be able to hear oncoming traffic etc)
Price (The Monster cable site lists them at $149.95) though I'm sure they can be had cheaper online (Ebay, Amazon etc)
They also come in black.
I don't run very much, but I have a pair of Sennheiser MM 50 iP earbuds that suction into the ear.
While I'm at work, I can rack servers, change backup batteries, and run around the datacentre like a mad man and they never fall out.
Also, the sound quality is EXCELLENT and I can barely hear anything outside.
Only downside is that I like to hear what's going on outside of my earbuds when talking on the phone. So, they're great for music and quick phone calls, but for longer calls I don't care for them.

Thanks to each of you for your suggestions so far; looking forward to any other suggestions folks might have.
The one suggestion that comes somewhat close is the Monster iSport Immersion because it comes close to clipping on the ear which, along with the Mic, is the key feature for me because having tried every modification of in-ear/ear bud style- they all fall out whereas the ear clip prevents that.
Has anyone tried:
Powerbeats by Dre Sport?
or
The Sprint Stereo Headset

Thanks again for your continued help.

Hi all,
I've had these headphones since January (2012). I can vouch how durable they are and they do sound AMAZING. I'd always hated the in-ear phones because they'd always fall out. The little in-ear clip on these does a good job of staying put, once you fit yourself with the properly sized attachments (included).
The iSport Immersions are awesome, but know this...the only part that works with Android devices is the pause/play button. Track skipping does NOT work. When running or working out, I tend to not mess with the music very much, so for me it's not very important.
Monster does make a iSport LIVESTRONG (yellow) with Universal control. Basically the same as the Immersion, but different control. I'd recommend these over the Immersion for Android users.
Cheers!

Go to Wal-Mart and buy a set of body glove in ear buds. They come with over ear clips. I work on an oil rig and they stay put no matter what. Plus they are only 20 bucks and sound 20 times better than the skull candy ear buds I have. Almost as good as my Sure ear buds. Built in mic too

Review: Motorola S10-HD Bluetooth Headphones

So I was looking for new headphones for my S3 that had controls on them and where good for an active lifestyle. I heard about the Motorola S10-HD headphones. They are a wraparound style bluetooth headphones that are "sweatproof". They come with 4 different sizes for the ear pieces. It has 3 buttons on each side, left side being volume up, answer call, volume down; right side being skip forward, play/pause, skip backwards. They have a design to them that are a little akward but you get used to it quick. Sound quality is great, more bass then stock headphones but if you are into dance type music you might be dissapointed but I listen to rock/metal and find they are pretty darn good, volume won't blow your ears off but the design of how it holds the ear buds in your ear and the correct ear piece makes a nice noise cancelling effect. They are supposed to last 8 hours on a full charge for music playback using a micro USB to charge them back up. I've only had them for 2 days and haven't gone through a full charge yet.
I live in Canada which surprisingly they are cheaper here at FutureShop ($79.99) then the US BestBuy ($89.99) considering BB owns FS. FS just recently started price matching online adds so luckily NewEgg Canada had them on for $59.99 with free shipping so I was able to get them for that price. In my opinion they are a great wireless solution for anybody looking for headphones with the controls (and phone capability) built right in

I bought a pair on woot.com for $25 and got them a week ago, they work great and the sound is decent. I like the fit and form factor, they are easy to carry, and easy to wear. I have seen them at costco for $50-60. I think they are a good value at about $50 or less. I think if I were spending more than that, you are getting into some low end bluetooth headphones with apt-x (which is supposed to be a better codec for better sound quality).
had one and thought it sucked like hell. you can't take one off and have the other on the ear. you can't have it on your neck, because it feels like a choke hold and sound was not good at all. I came across a Backbeat Go from plantronics. looks like a wired headset with out the wire going to the phone. and yes it's bluetooth... very light very good quality and sounds awesome. also works for phone calls and phone audio, like for listening to music and all that.
In my opinion, the s10 is pure trash. If you came from the s9 and then went to the s10 the sound on the s10 is garbage. No bass whatsoever.
I have had my S-10 for about 7-8 months now. Keep in mind, I ONLY use this thing for the gym. I have a Bose if I am traveling or wanting better sound quality.
Overall, it's decent and it will almost get loud enough. Battery life is great along with the range. I have two MAJOR complaints...
It is advertised as sweat proof. BS! The rubber pads on the inside are held in with Elmer's glue. Once they get hot and wet, they fall out.
The track advance buttons. I have found very few ROMs that they work with. I guess that is just a ROM issue.
I bought these off Woot as well and I must say that I hate them. I personally find them very uncomfortable for short periods of time, let alone all day. The buttons seem to work, but just barely. They have some type of rubber coating over them that makes them awkward to press. The power button is terrible, and not easy to turn on/off. With having that huge hump on the rear of them it would appear the battery would last for weeks, if not years, but this isn't the case...
Sound quality is decent, but nothing to write home about. I had a $20 pair of rocketfish RMFAB-2's that I though had superior sound quality compared to these.
I will definitely be pawning these off on a friend while I continue my search for decent BT headies.
Anyone tried the Jaybird Freedom headset? The Plantronics Backbeat Go looks good, except the LONG wire.

Review of MEElectronics KidJamz headphones with volume limiting w/lots of pics!!!

This is a review of MEElectronics KidJamz safe listening headphones for kids with a volume limiting technology http://www.meelec.com/KidJamz_Safe_Listening_Headphones_for_Kids_p/hp-kj15-bk-mee.htm , currently available on Amazon at an introduction price of $9.99 : http://www.amazon.com/MEElectronics-KJ15-Lightweight-Headphones-Volume-Limiting/dp/B00O5A4WHS/
Today I'm going to share with you about a very special pair of headphones. It doesn't have removable cables or multi-driver design, it doesn't have endorsement of rap stars or other celebrities, and it doesn't even have in-line controls for your smartphone. But if you are a parent or a grandparent with little/young kids in the house, these $10 headphones will be more valuable than any fancy IEMs or full size cans with all of the above mentioned features. Here is why.
The name MEElectronics is often associated with a high quality budget priced headphones, and it's well respected among many headphone enthusiasts. As a matter of fact, you will even hear quite often a seasoned Head-Fi audiophiles recommending Meelec eartips. I have tested and reviewed a number of their wired and wireless headphones in the past, but those were for my own listening pleasure. As a father of two young kids, I'm obviously concerned about their headphone listening habits, but have no way of regulating it when they use my headphones. We have purchased a number of children headphones in the past that had volume limiting feature, but they never lasted too long. That is a big problem with these types of headphones, and it's beyond me how you can design a product for an audience of 4-10 year olds, put appropriate safety features, and... have a thin cable and a flimsy plastic headband.
KidJamz headphone have a check mark next to every parents requirement. They have a thick durable tangle-free cable with a heavy duty headphone plug which has a decent strain relief and comfortable grip. The cable connection to earcup also has a good strain relief. Earcups shape and fitment is very comfortable, and they have removable foam earpads which I found to be of a higher density than other headphones of the same type. The headband is adjustable with a default state small enough for little kids, and being able to extend to an adult head size. The headband itself is rather wide which significantly helps with a comfort of wearing, and it doesn't slide off kids head. Furthermore, the headband is super flexible where it can withstand a lot of abuse without snapping in pieces. The built quality is definitely great!
I know a sound quality is not a primary requirement of these headphones, but I actually found them to sound better than I expected. Other kids headphones we owned in the past had a thin veiled sound, probably because manufacturers thought kids will not care about it. KidJamz on a contrary have a relatively clear full body sound and even some bass presence. I think it's definitely great for kids not only to experience a safe volume level and comfortable fit, but also to be able to appreciate music they are listening to. Even so the headphones are limited to 85dB level, it was still loud enough to enjoy the music or YT streaming, etc.
Overall, I was very happy I found these headphones and just wish MEElec guys would have released it sooner! We went through half a dozen of kids safe headphones in the past at twice this price, and it felt like a waste of money. KidJamz has a fantastic build quality designed specifically for kids using BPA-free non-toxic plastic, it has a very comfortable flexible headband to stay on-top of kids head without sliding down, it has a very durable cord and plenty of strain relief, and it has a very pleasant sound characteristic for a non-fatigue listening at a safe volume level. KidJamz comes in 3 vibrant colors and dirt cheap price tag of under $10. If you have little kids at home, I can't think of any reason why you shouldn't get at least a few pairs of these!!! HIGHLY recommend it!!!
Here are the pictures.

Usually my review follow-ups are based on answering questions from my readers or providing updates if it has something to do with a firmware, a new accessory, etc. I don't get a chance to write "long term use" follow ups simply because I write hundreds of reviews across multiple communities and it's physically impossible to keep a track of everything. But there is one product which I get reminded about almost every day for the last 6 months, and I feel compelled to write a short follow up to my original review of Meelectronics KidJamz headphones.
It's not accidental KidJamz never came up in any of my other reviews where I usually compare products. The truth is that I haven't found anything as simple and durable at such a low price for the little ears, thus I never compared them to anything else. Now after seeing my 7 year old, day in and day out, using KidJamz in the most extreme way by throwing them on a floor, dragging them across the room, sometime even sitting on them!!! - and they still look great and sound excellent (relative to their purpose).
The durability and flexibility of the headband, the thickness of the cable with a tough shielding, the secure connection of the cable to earcup, and high quality of build material - all that keeps these headphones intact and still usable 6 months later. I can't say the same about any of our previous "kids" headphones that never survived even a few months of my sons torture.
So here you have it. If you are still looking for super durable kid friendly headphones, you don't need to spend a fortune and can get it dirt cheap when you buy these Meelec KidJamz. Still gets my high approval as a reviewer and as a parent!

Review of Axgio Sprint w/ pictures

This is a review of the Axgio Sprint bluetooth earphones - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0123KN5TC
During the past years I’ve used many different pairs of sport earphones, but many of the other pairs I’ve tried have been too bulky or been not very convenient to use. The Axgio Sprint really caught my eye as they’re a pair of Bluetooth earphones that are made for sports and other activities, as well as they’re lightweight and use Bluetooth.
So first of all, I like the packaging that these came in as it provides a sneak peak of the actual product and looks really good. On the box there’s a variety of things, such as the specifications of the earphones and more information regarding the features they have. Inside the box the earphones themselves can be found as well as a USB cable, a bunch of silicone and foam ear tips.
After removing the earphones from the actual packaging I must say that I’m rather impressed by how small they’re compared to other alternatives in this price range. They’re much smaller than the M-Pow Swift, and the actual ear pieces fits better in the ears. The battery and Bluetooth chip is inside the remote of the earphones, which is great to see as it reduces the bulkiness.
The earphones themselves fits snug in the ear with the included foam ear tips, and the memory cable is pretty nice as it makes them stay in the ear while running. You simply put the cable over your ear, and then around the back of your neck. I really like this as it's more comfortable than most sport earphones.
When it comes to the actual sound quality I must say that I’m satisfied, as these provide quite good sound for the price tag. They have a punchy bass that’s a bit boosted, but it does not overpower the mids or highs either. The sound is not muddy or so, but for people that want a pair of earphones that sound natural these might not the best choice out there.
So to conclusion time; I’ve got to say that I am very pleased by these earphones as they sound great for the price tag. They also fit very nicely in the ear and comes with many different ear tips, which is great. I definitely recommend these as they’re great!
