Zagg smartbuds, Updated, with a review

Zagg just released these new smartbuds ~ zagg /audio/smart-buds.php~, (can't post actual links yet).
some of there specs are
"Compatible with iPhone, iPhone 3G/3GS, iPhone 4 and all 3.5mm jacks"
I wonder if there "controls will work with Android or at least Double Twist
I went ahead and pulled the trigger on these things and here is what I think so far
Pros:
noise canceling mic (haven't tested it yet)
extensive cord management
armor covered cords, makes them tough and tangle free, REALLY!
built control works with Mixing app
comfortable
Cons:
a little flat in my opinion, compared to shure SE210 but mixing's equalizer made up for it
volume control is analog, it only controls the volume to the phones, independent to phone volume
Still doesn't have the remote functionality of some iphone head phones
I was really hoping to get a little more out of these. I have to say they a probably have the most feature for android users than any other head phones out there. They have one button and a slider on the "mic" part. The one button works like the one button for the latest shuffle, one click=pause, one click= play, double click=forward track, and triple click=back one track. The volume slide is analog so the range of volume depends on how loud the volume is set on the phone. Overall these are pretty good, I'd say the best for the money. the coating of the wires really does make them pretty tangle free. A good buy for $50, a better buy if you check slick deals for a coupon.

I hope they work well with me EVO
Well I just ordered a set of these as I think they will be perfect for work. Still haven't found what buttons will actually work with the EVO but if I can at least answer and hang up then they'll be way better then the Sony set I just returned. Plus I love the way there designed to wear. I have a set of Shure headphones that you wear like that and they are awesome.
it looks like they dropped the price to $50 on zaggs site. and I was able to get them for $40 with the discount code "ZAGG20"
I'll try and post back how well they work with my EVO when I get them.

Actually it's water mixed with baby oil. plus they come with a multipurpose squidgy q-tip. JK.
I really can't wait for mine to come in. I figured the volume control would be analog although I was hoping for digital. and I never really expected them to sound as good as my Shure se210's but when you consider the price difference and the terrible build quality on Shure's optional Mic (which only lasted 6 months for me tops. Which is the same problem I had for the original Shure extension cable) I'm sure I will be happy with them. I mean considering these have a longer warranty and cost the same as I paid for the Shure Mic alone I won't mind carrying these with me too work and risking damage. and my se210's can stay home by my computer where they belong.

Does the mic button work for answering a call and ending it?

well I just got mine in haven't got a chance to give them a good full test yet.
I have noticed that the button does answer incoming calls although it doesn't end them on my Evo running DamageControl V3.5. Instead it mutes the Mic. This is rather annoying and I hope theres an option somewhere to change that so I can hang up on people with out having to take my phone out.
I also haven't been able to get the previous track by triple pressing the button instead it goes forward a track and then pauses.
I'll give more info after I've had more of a chance to play around with them.
Edit: Ok so I did a little looking and it seems a long press on the button will end the call. So now I'm happy. So when in a call a quick press mutes the mic and a long press ends the call.

You probably couldn't run with these, huh. I need a pair of earphones/headphone that I can run with that has a remote so I can play and pause and skip without having to reach for my phone.

Check my signature for my review on the Nokia BH-214. It's bluetooth that costs me $48 shipped from Amazon! It can do all this can and more!

I'm not a runner but I don't see any reason you couldn't run with these. They fit in your ears pretty tight and with the slides you can adjust them so the cable won't tug them out your ear.

Huh never heard of that before. I use to do a little running with my old Sony in-ears and don't remember any such issue. Granted I have very little endurance so I was never running for long. Maybe I'll go to the track in the next few days and give it a try with my shures and zaggs and see if I notice what your talking about.

Do these headphones seal in the air? That's the problem - the ear pressure.

Well, if that`s the case.. maybe some smaller buds would do the trick? (I saw smaller ones on Zagg`s site).
Please note that I haven`t used any bud-type headphones so I`m only speculating.

Well they do come with different sizes. But the problem with buds is if they don't seal then they don't sound right. Plus they would be more likely to fall out. Although I wonder how well it would work if you used the foam style tips and cut breather grooves. You would probably loose some sound quality if it worked but at least they shouldn't fall out all the time. If I get a chance to go to the track in the next couple of days I might try a few things but between rain and drama I haven't gotten over there yet.

Ah... I didn`t know that... like I said, I haven`t used bud style headphones.

everyone has different reviews, so you cannot use comfort for a reason to buy these. i went through 8 different models of bluetooths at bestbuy before i found one that was good.
yes they hated me for doing it, but that's their fault with the 30day return policy

Looking for Headphones w/ Mic for Samsung Vibrant

As much as I enjoy the stock heaphones shipped with my Vibrant, I want something a little better. Looking for some good inexpensive ($80 or less) headphones with a microphone.
If you all have any good reviews, testimonials or just suggestions for good headsets, please post here. I would really appreciate it and I'm sure plenty of people would want to know too.

Go bluetooth. I'll gladly recommend my Sony MW600. It's just a little receiver that you can plug your own headphones into. It has a mic, FM radio, and can pair up to three devices. I pretty much use it for anything, including listening to music on my computer. The sound is very good (almost indistinguishable from the 3.5mm jack), and it has volume and track controls which work with pretty much any player.
It's also super light and can go 8 hours of audio, prob a little less for voice comms; standby time is in days. In terms of power draw on the phone, I've noticed that leaving BT on drains about 2% total... which probably saves me power since I don't have to turn on the screen as much.
I got mine for about $50 on Amazon. It comes with its own earphones, but I opted to get a nicer pair (Audio Technica, ckm50a) with short cables. Total cost was under $90.
If you must go the wired route, I would suggest the Ultimate Ears Superfi 5vi. You can go more expensive, but this is probably the cheapest wired headset approaching audiophile quality.

you can get skullcandy headphones with the mic at T-Mobile.

I would say try the Skull Candy 50/50's. I have heard good things about them and thats what ill be purchasing soon. U can get them from radioshack or the direct website for more color choices.

Do the volume control's on the 50/50 work on the Vibrant?
Are there any wired headsets with controls other than the one button (hang-up, start/stop) that work well with the vibrant?

[Q] Best wired earbud headset?

I have a Sony Bluetooth earbud headset that is of excellent quality, so I am set on that front. The thing is, it only has six hours of battery life (as most BT headsets do) and often run it down when I'm listening to podcasts and audiobooks while pulling doubles at work. I had the earbuds that came with my Captivate, but they were kind of junky and, honestly, I put them through the washing machine one too many times.
I went on Newegg.com thinking I'd have an easy time choosing the optimal wired earbud headset, but there's a whole universe of them out there, now, and the price has come down on them so much I can't even use that as a benchmarch of quality, anymore.
Does anybody have any good suggestions for a wired earbud headset that has good to excellent sound quality and works particularly well with Android pnones/Samsung Captivate. My price ranges is 50 dollars or less.
Thanks!

I really like the stock ones that came with the Captivate. As a backup I also use the buds from my earlier Sony Ericsson.
Sorry my post was of no help :]

I use a pair of V-Moda headphones w/ mic from the Apple store back when I had an iPhone. The cable is wrapped in a material infused with Kevlar
I'll try to find a link for you
EDIT: Didn't see your price range. Mine were $80, but they may have gone down some? Idk. I'll find it anyway

I've been looking for a good durable set as well. Looked on amazon, and it seems that many many people have problems with that headset breaking constantly.

Sigh. I am checking accessories because I discovered my right earbud stopped working about 15 minutes ago

Disclaimer: I'm not really after audio quality. They're earbuds, after all. I just need them to be indestructible or, failing that, cheap enough to be replaced a couple times a year.
The weak points in most earbuds I've owned are the junctions between the miniplug and the cable or the cable and the earbuds. In fact, the supplied Samsung earbuds are pretty decent, except that the miniplug-cable connection wasn't designed to take any stress at all. Sheared that right off in just a week of pulling the phone in and out of my pocket.
To that end, there have been two products I've been pretty happy with:
If you can find them around (eBay), the "Zune Premium Headphones" have outlasted anything else I've ever had. The cable is wrapped in plastic, so it transmits some noise when rubbing against your clothes, but they're incredibly durable. I only stopped using mine because I wanted something with a microphone button, not because they broke.
What I'm currently using are the JLab J3M earbuds. Got them from Amazon for $25 or so. Cable appears to be wrapped like the Zune earbuds and then coated in a clear, rubbery plastic, which has worked out so far. Only had them for about four months, but holding up well. The headset button works reasonably well with Android (I use DroidShuffle to control everything, and Cubed as the actual music player.)

A case of YMMV... I have a pair of V Moda Vibes that I've worn for over 3000 miles of road cycling over the past year. Not a bit of a problem.

I actually have a pair of the ZAGGsmartbuds (yes, the same ZAGG that makes Invisible Shield) that I received as a gift. They are very sturdy (the site has a cool video of a Boston Terrier trying to tear one apart - that alone would sell it for me ) and the volume and button controls work on the Captivate as well. The cord is actually coated with the same material as Invisible Shield.
Sound quality is quite good (compared to some V-Modas and some high end Sony earbuds I had from before) and it retails for a shade under $50 (but I think you can easily find it online for much cheaper).
http://www.zagg.com/audio/smart-buds.php

I've tried lots of different earbuds and I think the stock ones are one of the best under $50. they may not have the most bass but the complete sound range is great, nice and smooth/clear.

$25 Skull Candy set does right by me. Killer sound and I can talk while driving. Covers the basics. Did I mention they sound killer? The sound is great and they sound awesome too.

Best Wired Headphone on the Market!
Skullcandy (Full Metal Jacket) FMJ. You can check out this products here: http://www.skullcandy.com/shop/all-products/headphones.html?limit=all&cat=6
but you can pick up brand new ones on ebay for $20-$40. They have an in-line mic, you can work the music player with a toggle on the wire, they they are LOUD and HIGH QUALITY music. Check them out, you would be disappointed.

That may be true, but they seem to have close to a 50/50 fail rate. Waaaay to high for me.

If you're going to buy skullcandy, don't get more than the inkd line. They arent great on the first place and it seems like the higher you go in the line up the worse they sound.
The ones I have have lasted for two or three years now.
They aren't the best thing ever SQ-wise, but they do isolate well enough, and that's important to me when riding to and from school/work.
Just my opinion.

I agree with this.

I use Sony's MDR-EX57LP/BLK. They are mostly noise canceling and I found mine at walmart for about $40. Great bass and ok highs.

Hippo Pearl if your after balanced and an all rounder. Got e'm for around $20. Best pair of earbuds I've had.
Swyped from my Froyo-ed Captivate.

ive got a set of meelectronics from newegg that have been awesome as far as sound goes, otherwise the mic has been questionable at best can't tell if its the rom or the headset itself. btw it was cheap as hell too 10 bucks or something.

I've had good luck with the skull candy full metal jackets but I think the ink'd sound slightly cleaner but the longest I have used them is two months before I catch them on something. If I don't need a mic I use Shure e2c's.

I've never had that problem. I run my wire through my shirt. Also helps to get rid of microphonics.
Im about to "upgrade" to a bluetooth set. Hopefully it will be on par with what im currently using. But im willing to sacrifice a little SQ for the peace of mind. I use an otterbox defender so the headphone jack is partially blocked off.
I just hope it isn't TOO bad because I really like my belt clip.

lol, beyond awful

I use a pair of Panasonic RP-HSC200K as my dedicated gym buds. They're the kind that wrap around your ear so they don't fall out and can resist my gross sweat. They're flexible and can take the abuse of throwing them into my gym bag with my shoes and gear (so far). I like that style because buds like the stock one and iPod ones I have kept popping out my ear when I jog/use the elliptical and get sweaty. They cost $60 and the sound is decent in my opinion. I wasn't looking for audiophile quality considering that I knew they would be abused and soaked in sweat, lol. I didn't want to get something that I would have to worry about.
The mic integration works fine and the button to pause/skip to next song, but the volume controls don't work with my Nexus. They do on iPhone and iPods.

I hear that. I carried these headphones over from when I used to have an iPhone 4 and yeah, it kind of sucks to lose that functionality.
Apparently it's difficult overall to find a pair where both volume up and down work on the in-line controls? Doesn't seem like a lot of models that are iPhone compatible work with Android as well. I dunno. I do have a pair of Skull Candy earbuds as well with mic and volume controls. I'll have to re-test it and see if it works.

If your willing to spend the $100 I HIGHLY recommend the Jaybird Freedom. They are very good. Sweat/water resistant, comfortable, bluetooth, and sound really great especially for blue tooth.
I've had mine for about 3 weeks now and I now use them more than my cans or Bose wired headset. They have nice all around sound and nice bass and I've honestly never heard blue tooth headset sound so good.
Only two drawbacks I've seen with them are the mic is a little choppy if your talking to someone (Focus on your workout, not talking ), and your going to need to wear an armband if your outside as the signal won't have walls to bounce off and will cut in and out if your phone is in your pocket.
Check them out:

Edit: These things are easily worth the $99 price tag on Amazon. Now that I've used them and broke them in, I'd gladly pay $200 for them.

Nothing sounds better than the Bose IE2's. You'll never regret getting these.

I appreciate everyone's input.
Unfortunately at the moment I can not spend more than I guess 50 to 60 dollars on a pair. A) cause I need to replace my windshield and B) This will be probably only to listen to music while I work out I rarely ever since myself in situations where I am listening to music while I am out and about unless I am driving I would have it plugged into my stereo.
Those Jaybirds looks so legit I wish I could get them. I think I am going to have to get the skull candy one. God I wish they didn't have the ****ty logo. Looks so high schoolish. Ugh I hate that. I probably look like so punk kid that has no respect for their elders lol.
Unless anyone else has any suggestions for something under 60 or 50. Sound quality would be nice I understand you get what you pay for.

SGS3 and Sony MH1C compatibility

Hi guys,
I want to order miracle playing headset Sony MH1C. Did anybody buy them as Im interested in control buttons and 3,5mm jack compatibility with our beloved SGS3.
Many thanks in advice.:cyclops:

They work great with the S3. The play/pause and volume buttons work with the media player, and the sound quality is outstanding. Three times I have spent more than a hundred bucks on headphones and I like these better than 2 of them. Those being the Re0 and the Triple Fi TF10's.
I bought the oem kit for $20. Last I checked the price had gone up to $27 on Amazon and ebay because of the excellent reviews. Good luck!

Thanks man I red that it has excellent sound in some reviews...in my country the bulk package costed only around $18 but after one review everybody wanted it and now it costs more than $30 and its out of stock I ordered it on ebay for $26...on amazon the low-price package is out of stock too and there are only expensive ones anyway thank you for the compatibility review nice to hear that the play/pause button works...what about next-previous track function?

Besides the play/pause buttons there's only two buttons for volume control and one button unique to Sony phones. There's no dedicated next track or last track buttons.
I don't know if it's possible to reprogram the buttons in an app but usually double clicking the pause button will take you to the next track.

Ok thank you I will try it then there are several programs for controling music players through the buttons on headphones...

Just want to THANK YOU Sony MH1C is the best headset up to $100. It plays clear music after burnout for around 60-80 hours and still good amount of bass. And as I said it plays better than in-ears in price range around $100... It has full functional control buttons for play/pause, next/previous song and ofcourse volume buttons. Only drawback is cable which is tought but when you find out how them wear WOOHOO I listening FLAC with Jetaudio basic its the best free music player nowadays...

I'm looking to buy these to use with my S3. Where's the cheapest I can get them (shipped to the US)? Seems like the prices have gone up recently..

You're quite welcome. I'm glad you like them as much as I do. I think they are the best value in audio I have ever come across.
As for price, the cheapest place to get them is on ebay if you don't care about retail packaging.

Just bought bought them cause of your reviews 35 usd which was 27,5 € on ebay.com there is only one selling them right nowfrom hHong Kong but he has only good reviews for this product so I guess it will be fine only stupid thing is the long shipping time, but I still have my Samsung ones so not that much of a problem.
Thx for reviews im excited to test them.

Man, the sound quality is great but the remote is in an awkward location and the buds pop out of my ear quite often, unfortunately.

Same, the remote is quite bulky and heavy, which doesn't help since it uses a j-cord cable which pisses me off so much. Wore these for about 5 minutes on my walk to the bus stop, both buds were loose by the time I got there. Annoying because they're good for the price. I might just splash out on something that comes with a Y-cord instead and warranty too.

Today mine arrived, like the other people said these headphones have awesome sound. I never had expensive in ear headphones but i could imagine that you can get the same quality for more than 100$. They feel comfy for now about the popping out of my ears i cant tell anything cause i was only sitting till now
I always head my headphones in my pocket but i guess this is not the best way to treat such a good product. Does anyone of you know a good case which still fits in jeans pockets? Link would be great.
Cheers

Even with a Y-cord, I think they would still come out of your ears. I have a set of mx310lps which also have a J-cord, and they never fall out of my ears.

I've got a few Y cords and they are perfect. Only ever had issues with J Cords

Anyone got an Idea for this?

i want to purchase this but the end is L shaped, which will be awkward and not to mention that it won't fit all the way on my otter box case.

Anyone knows a good reliable / cheap shop?
Prices are crazy except the hong kong shops (bulk items).

I'm facing problem with music playback.
When I listen to music with these headphones and lock the screen the music stops playing and the player gets closed (Google music and jet audio basic). Can anyone reproduce and tell me how to solve thisI guess it is related to usus in the stop and play button while on lock screen or something like that, I don't know how exactly it happend but it is really annoying.
Greetings
