Hi guys. As you all know the musuc player and loudnes sof s7 edge isnt too great. Iam looking for bluetooth stereo earphones. I have actually bought sony sbh 54 but not too happy with it. The music sound quality and bass is not up to my liking. I can return it within 10 days. I can also use othwr earphone with the sbh 54 as it has 3.5 mm jack. Can you guys suggest any earphones which i can use with sbh 54? My budget is INR 2000 (USD 40).
Alternatively i can buy a totally new bluetooth earphones. Which one would you suggest. How about sbh 80 as it has APTX technology. I intend to use it for music and lits of voice calling in criwded areas while travelling. My budget for this is INR 6500 ( USD 100).

I had the sbh80 for 2 and a half years before they broke. I can tell you one thing that I was fully satisfied with paying 115 pounds for them. The sound quality is great and the battery life is also good about 9 hours with music play back. They have great bass and can reach loud volumes. When you put the sbh80 on in the morning you will notice they are there but very quickly you will forget that you are wearing them, very comfortable around the neck and very light.
If i was in your position I would purchase the sbh80 if you can still get them and make sure you get them in black the white ones will get dirty.
I use these at the gym, and they are pretty good, with excellent battery life:

Thanks a lot Amar . You seem to be from Mumbai. Do those fall over the neck while running? I do a lot of commuting in Mumbai trains. I thought SBH 80 was launched in Sep 2015.

Nope I'm not from Mumbai. Huge giveaway in my reply to you was that I said 115 pounds indicating that I am from the uk. Anyway the sbh80 aren't really good for running they will start to slide around you neck and will eventually fall off. But if you want to use them for running you can get some earphone clips and attach them to the earphones and then clip the sbh80 to your shirt to stop it from sliding around.
Here is a picture of the clips I'm talking about:

Also the sbh80 were released in March 2014 here in the uk.
Get the Samsung Level U Pro or the new Active Noise Cancellation ones - superb

I have the LG HBS-1100 tone platinums. I listen to audiobooks all night at (8-10hrs) everyday and they are awesome. The retractable earbuds alot better to deal with then the previous designs.
If you can get the Samsung Level U Pro in-ear phones, go for them. They work amazingly with the phone and the quality is superb. The Level app is awesome as well. It may end up slightly beyond your price range when on sale, but not by too much.
I just upgraded to the from the Level U pro to the ANC version, will write a review but in short made a superb product even better

I'm thinking about buying some new headphones to go with my HD2 for train journeys. The existing ones are actually not too bad quality for bundled 'phones, but they are not very sound-proof, so if you want to use them on the London Underground you can't hear anything!
I was therefore thinking about some Etymotic HF5 'phones which have very good acoustic isolation. Has anyone tried these with the HD2? Or can anyone suggest some alternatives?
(For people who want a microphone, there is an equivalent, the HF2, which has one).
Oh, I should also have said that I hate headphones which are bass-heavy. Descriptions like "accurate", "neutral", "detailed" and "transparent" tend to attract me. I also quite like 'phones that emphasise the mid-range. But emphasis on bass puts me right off.
QuietComfort
I have used since long the "QuietComfort 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling" headphones from Bose with my iPod and now also with my HD2. They are especially useful on planes and noisy environments, but also good for listening to speach on the phone. For the last you'll need the "QC3 mobile communications kit", which allows you to use the microphone in the cable.
I have used them to participate in long calls during the last weeks and they always feel comfortable.
I know they are not very cheap, but after having tested 3 or 4 different ones, this one is still my favourite.
I like a bit of extra bass kick so I have the Etymotic ER6i's. Noise cancelling is superb - I use most days on commute into London and whenever I fly. Customer support is excellent even if in the USA. My cable became faulty near the plug end and I'd gone over the 1 year warranty by a month or so. No problem - they gave me a returns code and it just cost me a few quid postage out to the states. New cables and plug, good as new on return.
I recently have modified the htc headset that was shipped with my leo. But it surely doesn't replace a high quality headset...

I am somewhat torn by high-end noise-cancelling 'phones. Can't decide if the sound quality and comfort are worth the bulk, or if I really ought to go for something I can fit in my pocket....
If anyone is looking for cheaper noise-cancelling 'phones, btw, these are an absolute steal at £50 (RRP £160!): http://www.play.com/Electronics/Ele...ctive-Noise-Reduction-Headphones/Product.html

As far as I'm aware, Etymotic 'phones aren't noise-cancelling, they simply block out noise by sealing your ears, which is quite different.
As I loathe 'phones that emphasise bass, it sounds like I might be well advised to steer clear of these! But thanks for the info (on Etymotic as well as on the ER6i).
hi,
i first tried the bose quite comfort3, very impressive sound expierience. the size, is way to big to travel/transport them around, its more a home device in my eyes. if the battery is empty, it stops working completly, and you need carry the bose charger to load it. the price of 300€ is simply more then i can/want effort.
the next headphone i tried was the Sennheiser PXC 250-II . they are made for traveling, so you can fold them away. the electronic and the batteries are in an extra case that can be clipped to the belt wich makes the headset lighter weight. the device is powered by 2 'aaa' batteries, and the headset needs the power only for the noise cancelation. wich means you have sound even with no batteries inserted. and the price is aroung 140€.
im travelling a lot by plane and both headsets do a brilliant job on noise reduction.
mad.
*EDIT* as i wrote this i saw bose now also have a more travelling like headset quitecomfort15, wich is using a single 'aaa' battery.
If you want portable and noise cancelling, I have a pair of Sony MDRNC22B Noise cancelling headphones and they are fab. good natural sound quality and the battery lasts for about 50 hours.

Nice guide!!!
I bought some sennheiser MM50ip headphones so that I could it for handsfree, it works but not 100% as they dont have the buttons for channing tracks like the supplied ones. Call quality and sound is great though.
Now do I dare rip them apart to mod them to my likeing
Oh and check out this great site www.fakeheadphones.com if you intend to buy headphones over the internet esp ebay/amazon market place..... its scary how these fake headphones looks so close to the originals
Hey guys, I am looking for a good pair of noise cancelling headphones to use with my iPod touch. I travel long distances every day in the train and seem to have misplaced my old headphones. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
P.S
I wouldn't mind headphones with some extra bass.
For extra bass get vmoda heasdphpnes. However I use klipsch image s4 and can just use the bass eq and wont hear any background noise on the subway. Both are in-ear headphones.

I'm curious about voice calls. With the noise-cancellation, do you find that you speak too loudly? I know I tend to have that problem, in general, when wearing headphones. I am very interested in getting good noise-canceling headphones (preferably bluetooth) to use in my all-day conference calls from my sometimes-noisy house. But I am concerned about the talking too loud problem.

No joy with that but I did find these on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sony-Ericss...WV3G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1311248051&sr=8-1
Ordered last week and delivered yesterday - not bad considering they have come from Germany. Proper Sony box, extra buds. Yay I have sound in both ears
Also.. this looks the business:
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/live-sound?cc=gb&lc=en#view=overview
No word on eta or price though
I got the MW600 Bluetooth... I great to have it wireless..., however... I don't like the quality of the headphones on either the Play Box or the MW600...
I can recommend the Samsung S8000 (JET) heaset... I used to have one it is GREAT!!!!
The sound is great on the and it has a jack for 3.5 on the Mic, so you can change the headphones only if you want... also it has a 90 degree plug. (funny because it make it uncorfortable on the JET... but GREAT for the PLAY.
Mine are also dying, slowly the volume output is getting lower and lower
Undecided on new headphones as well.
Don't want to spend money to have it die a month later, or have poor audio output .
MH650 are the stock ones that came with the phone? don't really want to buy ones that died within a month of use again.
Be careful what headphones you buy!
I bought Skullcandy FIX ear buds ( http://www.skullcandy.com/shop/fix-bud-navy-black.html ) and they dont work with the phone. The plug goes in but because of the curve on the phone, doesnt go in all the way so you get a weird cross channel. The headphones work awesomely in every other thing I tried, so it's basically just the curve on the body of the phone that stops it.
Hi all,
Anyone here recommend a good set of bluetooth headphones fir less than £60 ($90) bought some goji gt016 and they become really distorted when you switch to bluetooth from wired.
I'm looking for a wired option with the ability to take calls and use features on the phone also bluetooth 4.0 if that's an advantage not sure what advantage that has at the moment.
Thanks

It's not less then $90 but it is extremely good, as it makes uses of Samsung's proprietary UHQ bluetooth. http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EO-PN920CBEGUS . I got mine for $170. I use this with PowerAmp Alpha and the Samsung control application . I only play 24 bit 192 hz flac's. I may be drinking the Koolaid, ut I find the difference, with everything tuned to these encoding protocols, absolutely breathtaking for a set of bluetooth headphones. By way of background, since 2006, I have purchased and lived with over 20 different bluetooth stereo earbuds, on ear, over ear headphones. I currently have a V-Moda wireless and a set of the Bragi Dash wireless earbuds. Now, YMMV, but I can't praise these enough. I may get trolled for this, but they are comparable to the wired KEF M500 http://www.kef.com/html/en/showroom/mseries/m500/m500/index.html#.V1aRRbgrI-U
I really liked my Samsung Level U Pro headphones that I paid $60 for, but now I'm using the LG Tone Platinum's which are more expensive ($200) but sound great. I would give the Samsung Level U Pro headphones a chance, they support aptX, and UHQ streaming on top of getting good battery life.
I've had these

I stumbled across a great deal on what I think is an amazing sounding little Bluetooth speaker, full of great features like NFC touch to pair, speaker phone, and some of the best sounding bass I ever seen come from a tiny little speaker, the Klipshch Gig
http://www.cnet.com/products/klipsch-gig-black/review/
It has a bit of age to the model, as it's currently being phased out. What used to sell for $200 is now under $60 bucks, and let me tell you, it was money well spent. It with my new oneplus3 keep me jamming all day long!
Hmmm an interesting device but you can't go wrong with a ue boom or similar products tho more expensive. I just go for an awesome pair of headphones

If you are from India, you can get a good deal during the Diwali sale on Amazon etc.

JBL Charge 2(+) if you really like dat bass. Charge 3 if you want more natural sound, and its waterproofed . Charge 2 and 3 are one of the very best speakers in this size
Is it just me or the headphones that I got with my M20pro are lousy?
They are white apple looking ones. They are realy uncomfortable to wear and the sound quality is mediocre. I don't expect studio quality, but for a 900-1000 euros phone, I expect decency at least. I can endure 40 mins to hour, then my earlobe hurts and I have to remove them to rest my ears. I never had any problems with any headphones, but tbh I allways used in-ear ones.
Even worse, I wanted really bad to have Bluetooth heaphones that have wireless charging option so I can use my M20pro to charge them. So I read that maybe the best option is to go with Huawei freebuds, bcs they are kinda meant for this phone. But I saw that they are the same design as this ear-destroyers of headphones. So any advice or suggestion is welcome.

I never used the ones that came with the phone as I hate having a cable going from my head to my pocket where my phone usually is.
As far as wireless goes, I'm not yet sold on true wireless as I find their batteries are too small. Yeah you can use the case but if I have to do so every 3-4 hours it's annoying (usually use them on a 8 hours work shift).
Anyway, all that to say a year ago I ended up ordering this cheap one while waiting for something good to come to the market.. and was really not expecting much but been super impressed for a pair of 30$ earphones. Sound is all right for the price especially because of their shape, they fit nice and tightly in your ear and have better sound isolation than most regular buds that come with phones (huawei, apple, etc) which I think helps improve the illusion of sound quality when in a bus etc. Battery last about 8h. Been very happy with them:

Great, thanks man.
I am actually okay with that 3 hour battery.
Small disadvantage, I am from Serbia, Europe and Amazon do not ship products to me.
I m using Funcl AI with my M20P, this supports APTx which is an added advantage in terms of bandwidth and sound quality. I brought it for $49 USD. Now its available on Amazon and indiegogo.com
Mine are really good!
The standard plug in headset that came with my mate 20 pro are really good!
I've just got some jabra evolve 65t ear buds and I prefer the sound quality of huawei's.
I've been tinkering about with all the sound controls and options from the jabra sound app and from my phone and still I can't get the jabra earbuds to sound as good as the huwawei standard headset.
