Hello,
I am planning to buy a stereo bt headset to use with phone and computer. I am having Jabra HALO and Rocket fish RF-MAB2 as my options. Any one have experience with one of these how is the quality and durability?
BTW I am considering Jabra because they are cheap today at http://mobile.dailysteals.com/ for just 25 + some shipping, But are they any good? how is the audio quality of Rocketfish. I am fine with not good looks but I really want good audio quality...so any insight on this would be great also please suggest me if there are any options around $60-$70 price tag..
thanks!
Jabra BT3030 is another option if you want to use your own headphones.
I am not to sure about price range , but I can tell you I bought motorola 's S9HD about 20 months ago , best purchase ever and eventhe mic quality is decent I dont get complaints eventho its obvious Im using a headset ,but for music the sound quality is just GREAT (battery life to! )
I bought mine on eBay with no box cost me around 100$ shippe to Canada ( almost 2 yrs ago), dont forget to get the HD one , not the regular one , it really is worth every penny .
I have the rocketfish....
but it all depends on what your going to use it for.
for everyday stuff the motorola is nice. very good quality from what i heard.
but if you are going to be working out and have sweat and rain than i suggest the rocketfish. it doesnt say its waterproof but it takes a better beating than the motorola.
but on the jabra im not sure.
the rocketfish isnt superior in sound but its good and when talking the person on the other side cant seem to tell that its a headset. ^^
hope that helps

Hey thanks guys....that helps a lot. To be honest I am looking for a headphone with excellent audio quality in budget..and mostly I will be using it while traveling only. Also I dont mind the mic call quality..actually I was thinking of some good wired phones like bose without mic but then I realized that third party phones dont always work good with excellent custom ROMs that are out here..and I just noticed that motorola's headphones comes with BT adapter for iPod which is good addition! but all I really care about is audio quality..so I guess moto is good right ??? or any other good options out there.. as it is I will be buying around thanksgiving so right now exploring the options and once decided I will hunt for deals
I bought the S9 (not HD) from Moto last year on Amazon for $29 - sound great for the price. I use them when working out, but otherwise i liked the wired earbuds.
I have the Rocketfish and i love them! Previously i had the Motorola s9-HD and they hurt my ears because they went in the ear. The Rocketfish rest against the ear like the old school sony headphones that wrapped around the head.
I recommend the Sony Ericsson Mw600.
Most flexible BT headset as you can plug in your own headphones. Alsp has a FM radio to boot.
Definitely worth the investment
Hi waghoba - Did you end up with the Jabra BT-650? I was looking at them after you had made your inquirey on that discount site. I started seeing what kind of reviews I could find. By the time I got around to deciding I'd give them a try they were sold out.

Same here. When I decided to buy them, they were sold out. Now I am looking for new deals on some good headphones. Although I was looking for Bluetooth headsets, many people suggested me to buy wired ones for good audio quality.

Motorola S10 HD
Just picked up a pair of the Motorola S10 HD and think they are excellent.
Purchased from HERE.
Hey everyone, I was hoping to get some input from the community on this one as I have been searching all over trying to figure out what the best bluetooth headset with a small form factor is for noise cancellation and overall quality.
I don't want it to be gaudy, I like the subtle headsets that don't extend half way down your face. I work in a very loud environment (auto shop) so I need something that will drown out the ambient noise pretty well.
I don't want to go out and spend hundreds of dollars on different headsets trying to find one that works well. Hopefully some people here can enlighten me on what works and what doesn't based on experience.
TIA!
Why don't you try the new motorola S10-HD ($80 at best buy) , this is the upgrade of the S9-HD. it has only 1 noise cancelling microphone. Compared to the Nokia BH-905 which has 7 noise cancelling microphones, but it cost $249 at amazon.
I have the S9-HD , sonic quality is very good. I haven't tried yet the S10-HD even though it has only 1 noise cancelling mic, I think the sound will be a little bit better than the S9.
I personally use the Motorola H17. Not a fan of Motorola phones but they make excellent Bluetooth headsets. They sell for 100 bucks at your local Tmo store BUT you can always save some money with our good friend the internet.
Newegg sells them for 53 bucks brand new
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...268&cm_re=motorola_h17-_-75-982-268-_-Product
Or you can get it for only 25 bucks if you don't care about the fancy packaging
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...280&cm_re=motorola_h17-_-75-982-280-_-Product
I've used this while driving and windows slightly down and my gf was still able to hear me fine. Also, I never turn this over 60% volume because it is super loud as well. Would definitely recommend it.
try the Sound ID 400, i had it for a while, it's pretty good and you can get it for around $50
i have a blueant q1, noise canceling is good enough that my i could talk to my wife with the top off and doing 60.... couldnt find any others that would do that.

Some of the comment said it is easily break ( about the plastic thing over the ear?), and I can't figure out how the flip works
Is it really fragile?

I agree. Value wise, the Sound ID's are a great bang for your buck. I've had Motorola, Jabra, and BlueAnt that cost double, but were not much better quality.
For overall sound, the BlueAnt was best, but durability was bad. I left it in my car and the rubber over the earpiece pretty much disintegrated within 6 months.
Jawbone ICON! You will never use another.
Hi there, I just purchased the Blueant Q2 from ebay for $40.00 and it is the best bluetooth I have ever had. I am constantly driving for my job and while on the road, even with the window down doing 75 I can hear every word the other person is saying perfectly and they can hear me clearly with no other noises ever. SIMPLY THE BEST EVER!!!!
I would say the best option for your money is the official PS3 headset. It works with cellphones, and has a noise-canceling microphone. It also comes with a dock which if connected to your PC or PS3, will turn your headset into a desktop mic. Ive seen it as low as $25, but you may be able to find it for cheaper, especially since a new model was recently released.
I use the motorola rokr its a dual speaker headset with great sound and very weather resistant I'm outside everyday all day with it at work, charges in about 15 min and last about 8 hours

I just bought the sound ID 510 about a week ago....found it for on $40 (refurbed) on amazon...I have bought about 5 different Bluetooth headsets in the past 2yrs....And this one is IMO the best device out....especially at that price....Oh and the app in the android market has some pretty nice features..

I read a lot of positive comments in xda or amazon review,
after getting one new from ebay,
I am totally disappointed.
The sound is so choppy and is even worse than the Samsung WEP490 which is only $10 bucks when I got my vibrant.
I followed the procedure and the sensor is physically touching my face,
I even tried putting it on both ears!
I dont know if it is only my device is defective but the first impression is so bad..

This just came out the other day, and I was wondering if anyone had grabbed it yet?

Well the original Jawbone was $120 or $130 when first released. Can't complain if it really works. The Jawbone was and still is the best bluetooth released to date IMO. Well worth every penny. I purchased 3 of them. Only downside was the design wasn't the best fitting but the sound was perfect.

Jawbone not necessarily the best anymore either...
agreed; that honor now goes to plantronics voyage pro plus...simply 5 ****
in every area, except style...
best sound, best comfort, best multipoint/a2dp, "stereo" sound through a single earpiece, longest battery life, and everything else.
I think after owning at least 25 bt headsets, I can say with confidence that this is the winner!
and, if you look carefully, you can grab it for 69 bucks or so!
Voyager pro plus, nice headset but hurts my ear and royally sucks with glasses.... I hear they are releasing the same thing in a bud style. M1100 or something.

I was talking about the first Jawbone. I didn't care for the Jawbone 2. I do own & like the Icon but the first model is still tops in my book. Still have 2 of those laying around, just got tired of ordering ear loops for them. They break too easily plus they get very uncomfortable. The design wasn't all that great but it gave me the best sound of any Bluetooth I've used to date.

yeah, I could see that some glass frames would be a bit of a problem..
I saw the earbud model as well; I think its on CNET or somewhere like that...
does it hurt your ear because of your glasses, or for some other reason?
I can wear this thing for 8 hours with no discomfort what so ever, and I hate things in my ears..

The glasses, yes, caused too many issues plus, I guess I have odd ears because the rubber loop and bulk behind my ear caused too much pressure and annoyance. (and pulled my ear out like dumbo)
I have to have custom ear molds done for headsets and can only use my right ear.
Side note....
If you've never done a custom ear mold, you haven't really experienced perfection! Even with your pro plus. My audiologist does mine usually but I've ordered from http://www.averysound.com before too.
yeah, I have heard that the custom ear molds are the way to go..expensive, but great if you need them..
I have the bose, it's my 2nd favorite. 1st place goes to the new Motorola oasis. Still looking for the perfect BT. Both the bose and Oasis sound good to people on the other end. THe bose sounds better than the motorola oasis on my end. The Oasis is just so comfortable, the best feeling BT yet. I've tried 30+ different models and those 2 are the best. I'll try that plantronics pro next. A friend of mine who has used BT for years as well, says the Sound ID is his favorite. Anybody else tried them? The bose should have a2dp for $150 but it doesnt, that sucks.
sound ID is overpriced and worthless; no mac support, and only firmware up dateable on 32 bit windows machines..plus, only average sound quality, just overpriced, and targeted to iphone users...

he's using an iPhone so maybe that is why. I know he had tried all the expensive motoroalas, platronics, blueant etc and likes the S ID the best. Must be an iphone thing..

My biggest complaint with bluetooth headsets is the sound. None of them are loud enough. Someone needs to make a weather proof, loud headset for construction workers.
Sent from your Moms EVO using 4G speed
I have a few BT's as far as sound quality goes the Bose works the best IMHO, it is comfortable for me, now is it worth 150 ... Thats up to you. I concure the lack of a2dp is a huge bummer. Try it out for 14 days, Best Buy will let you return it, at least they always let me.
I have the Bose Bluetooth. It works well with my Samsung Captivate (Android 2.2), but it will not play music via Music Player. Can't seem to get it to pair to the music player.
And I've discovered why, on the Bose site itself:Can I listen to music on my mobile phone with the Bose Bluetooth headset?
No. The Bose Bluetooth headset was designed as a communications device. It was not designed to receive stereo music from a phone or PC.
Figured I'd ask for some opinions!
My earbud stopped working (well, the mic part still does. somewhat) and I've been without for probably a few months now. Does anyone have any recommendations on what would be a decent replacement? I see a bunch on ebay but I'm afraid to end up paying for a mediocre one.
I do place some value on good sound quality, and don't mind spending a bit more $50~100? if they're really good.
Thanks!
does it have to have the inline mic?
I've used Klipsch S4's for a year now- best "budget" earbuds IMO. They are ~80USD, and if you get the S4i (inline mic) they'll set you back 100. You won't be disappointed.
the klipsh s4 are supposed to be pretty good. but reading user reviews some like cheaper alternatives better, not that the cheaper ones are actually better but everything is a matter of taste.
as for what i've been reading and what i know i like started lookin into woodies and also found thicksound, reviews looked good on both but brought me to reviews on xeers from germany. they supply a large number of iem's at reasonable prices. of those the td iii blackwoods (they have ebony housings for what that's worth) got excellant reviews, ordered them on ebay and will review them as soon as they get here.
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300540943565
if these things are as sensitive and wide ranged as they claim they might make your ears bleed. not recomending them yet but will let you know!
Ultimate Ears 5vi great ear-buds and they are usually on sale for about 75 or so.
Ah, yes, having the inline mic is probably necessary. I'll probably pick up a bluetooth eventually but I think my main issue now is not being able to talk to the girlfriend while working on stuff at the computer with two hands
I'll google up the ones listed in this thread, thanks! If anyone else has some alternatives, that'd be great too.

might i ask what your taste is. the cheaper ones tend to be bass cannons. i kinda like that and can add more mids and highs in galaxy tuner to compensate. when you spend $100+ you will see flatter respose curves which is great for classical and hearing vocals but the lowend might sound weak.
http://www.headphone.com/
read the user reviews as well as the top ratings. you might find that a $30 set from dennon is better for you than a $200 set from etymotics or $80 set from klipch.
Coming from an audiophile that has spent way too much money on headphones, I recommend that you give this massive review a look.
http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/478568/
I, personally, recommend the Denon C452, I bought mine months back for only $30, and they retail at $70. Right now, I could not stand to listen to them (after hearing $300+ iems), but before then, these were outstanding. They blow anything from Bose out of the water, including the Beats Tour.

true im definately not impressed by the beats by dre series or anything from monster cable especially not there cables!
It's also worth noting what you listen to. I don't listen to too much rap so I care more for mids and highs instead of bass. Certain buds perform better listening to certain genres, so keep that in mind when you read reviews.

it is nice to see others that are serious about there iem's. audio performance is soo overlooked when selecting a phone, i mean they play various codecs of music and have massive internal storage. why not give phones the same scrutiny that we give mp3 players.
The NuForce NE-700Ms are exactly what you are looking for. They have excellent sound quality, a microphone, and aren't ridiculously expensive.
Their sound quality and NuForce's customer support are often praised on Head-Fi.
You could even go for the now cheaper older versions, the NE-7Ms. They are what I have and I still love them, though I've had to contact customer support about once a year to get replacement foam tips, which they kindly reply back that for $4.00 for shipping they'll send me some.
And for more ratings, the buds without a microphone have 5/5 stars out of 38 outstanding reviews. In fact, out of 38 reviews there are no 1 or 2 star ratings, and only 2 for 3 stars and 3 for 4 stars. The rest are 5/5. I say go NuForce and you will not be let down.

TBH, it's the Wolfson WM8994 chip that kinda sealed the deal for me.
And SuperAMOLED too.
I bought my phone a little after it came out, so I was not even aware at the time of the Wolfson WM8994 codec. I'm happy that there are others that appreciate headphones as much as I do...at least on XDA. I'd also overlook all reviews from Amazon, as they, a lot of the time, come from people that do not listen to high end headphones and do not know what true quality is. I'd peruse Head-Fi though if anyone is truly serious about a GOOD set of headphones.

well it seems you dont have the appreciation for headphones as others do. $80 is barely entry level but i see your point. i wont spend $300+ like some do.
from the reviews at headfi and headroom the cheaper dennons tendto get good review even from people that have more expensive klipch earbuds.

Well, first, I don't have a collection of FLAC encoded music on my phone, and even then, the phone isn't the best at sound reproduction/noise reduction, so why spend the money on high end headphones? Plus, I've easily lost them in the past, so when it's less cost, it doesn't hurt as much to have to replace.

Unfortunately I have not experienced any RHA products myself but they definitely look really clean and would match the HTC10 well
For anyone who's looking for cheap buds, the LG Quadbeats 3 sound pretty good. They actually sound better than my Bose IE2s because of the great isolation on a high quality source. They came with my G4 and sounded so cheap. Perfect example of the 10 making cheap buds sound amazing.

I have the rha ma750, bought it a few years ago. I do recommend it for the $130 range. I also have the rha t20.
Sony mdr ex750ap is also very nice with many colours and great sound.
Vsonic gr07 classic and gr07 bass are great as well.

A decent pair of earbuds, the Klipsch R6. Can't go wrong with, especially if you buy the Isolation Comply Tips. You'll get some great sound from them. That's the combo I use.
Got the RHA MA750 a few days ago. Very pleased. Phenomenal clarity and balance overall. A little less bassy and warm than I was expecting though. Although I've read they get better after a good break in period.
Thinking about trying the Shure se215s just to compare.
Still keeping the MA750s regardless though, between comfort and build quality they're well worth the price.
i have shure se215s, very nice, detachable cable, bit bass heavy but very durable.

Just received these myself and the sound quality is phenominal once you get the set dialed in with the right tips.
However, I think the button functions dont work properly, or mine are broken. Do your button controls work properly?
Top button works for Vol+
Middle button is stop/start, 2 presses nothing. three presses next track
Bottom button does nothing.
Im gonna contact 1more but am curious if yours work ok.

When switching from an iOS device and an android device I often find issues for the controls to work properly haha.
Most of the time the controls work flawlessly hopefully it gets better overtime. If you get a response back let me know what they say! Also, I agree so much haha these headphones are absolutely amazing and for the price they are absolutely amazing!!

Most of the time the controls work flawlessly hopefully it gets better overtime. If you get a response back let me know what they say! Also, I agree so much haha these headphones are absolutely amazing and for the price they are absolutely amazing!!

I will post here if they reply. I didnt come from IOS though. My last phone was the LG G2. Oddly the controls work on that phone, except for skipping back one track.
I'm guessing that maybe HTC didnt stick to a standard implementation.
So Im assuming your button controls dont work either? I cant tell by your reply if you answered my question?!?
I am a proud new owner of a Carbon Gray HTC 10! (coming from Failsung S7)
My sugestions for HTC 10 (of the same color) users:
AKG Y50 Black
AKG N20U Black
AKG K450
Sennheiser HD 2.20s
Philips Fidelio L2BO/27
Philips Fidelio S2BK/28
Senfer UEs (Dinamic driver + balanced armature)
KZ ZST (Dinamic driver + balanced armature)
A short update on the 1more Triple drivers. Support said that the inline button issues were fixed for android on their titanium color set. Apparently the black/gold have not been fixed yet (old stock?).
They offered to switch them out for me. Sucks cause I dont really want that color, but for $100 I want them to work properly. And they sound incredible so I'll deal.
For now, if anyone plans to buy them, get titanium color if you want the inline controls to work properly. I asked them on eta for corrections to black stock. Will update if I lean more.
I came from using sure's, xiaomi piston 2 and dual drivers, and sennheiser momentum in ears. These 1more triples shatter those in comparison of sound quality. I mean its not even a contest. Ive heard $1,500 cans that sound worse.
I'm unsure of how good they are, but the HTC Hi Res Audio earbuds and JBL Reflect Aware C Earphones are both 40% off if you sign up to join Team HTC. I bought the Hi Res Audio ones for less than $20. They should be here today (only took 2 days to ship).

the hi res sound great... but you gotta be careful with them... the wires are weak and will disconnect inside
Yes -.-
my Hi Res earbuds broke on the right side after 2 months....
Then i bought the Xiaomi Hybried IEM. For 18$ really nice stuff.
I think they're also designed by 1More.
Shure Se-215 with aftermarket cables from ebay that allow the in-line buttons to work on Android. They have a in-line mic as well. The se-315 are supposedly great too, a bit more $.
I also actually love the Amazon buds. $15 and they are great. Fit is nice, buttons work and in-line mic, sound is decent and I love that they are not sound isolating. Great for walks and hikes where you'd like to hear traffic and such.

Yea. 1more currently makes all of the xiaomi piston range and dual drivers. I have them all. Its what convinced me to try the triple drivers. In comparison to the dual drivers the triples are really 10x better sound quality. Not knocking any of the xiaomi range. At their price points they are all the best there is in the low end $ range, ......by far. I personally think the Piston 2's are fantastic, although base heavy.
As an aside, I also have thr JBL reflect and the HiRes HTC's. Guys, they are not even close to being anything near the right quality to take advantage of the DAC and amp on the 10. Rhey sound horrible. I'd rather use my non aptx photive bth3's than those.
My replacement 1mores's should be here tomorrow. I'll update on whether the controls actually work right on the 10.
