What headset?

What headset are you all using with your HC Touch?
Let us know what audio quality is like for handsfree phone function and listening to music/MP3s. Please also share your experiences in using the included HTC headset (which I think is appalling)

Had it two days - Sony DR-BT10CX Bluetooth stereo/handsfree - great for running and excellent sound quality for both calls and music.
Cheap too!

That looks great.
Unfortunately I have already a great headset... with 3.5mm connector.
Is there any MiniUSB-to-3.5mm-adapter?
Thanks

Yes, but this is without microphone. Just for listening music.

Thanks, but the description says:
Description
Use this adaptor to convert the HTC Touch extUSB socket to support any 3.5mm stereo headphones. The adaptor also has a hangup/answer button for normal voice calls through a stereo headset.
So I think it has a button
Thats great

Jawbone headset is amazing
I have ordered one of these after hearing from many people just how good these are. I got mine from Expansys.co.uk

Man, those things look/sound badass...I might have to pick one of those up - I don't really have a quiet car, and I LOVE driving with the windows down! Hefty price tag on eBay though - pay to play though, right?

If you are looking at the DR-BT10CX, I suggest you get the DR-BT20NX instead because it got a remote for music - same earbuds and receiver essentially.

The HTC headset works fine for calling and music. For use in the car I have a jabra BT5020 and quality is good, auto-pair ofcourse.

I'm thinking of DIY-ing the usb to 3.5mm audio jack, does anyone have any idea how the usb connectors corresponed to the audio outputs? thanks!

Been shopping around now, since I saw that Jawbone...but I'm wondering...
Is there a Stereo Bluetooth headset with noise-canceling technology out there that anyone knows of???
I've been searching, but to no avail.

Motorola S9 for Stereo and Plantronics 665 for phone
If I am not listening to music I use the Plantronics 665. If I want to listen to music and take calls I use the Motorola S9 stereo BT headphones. The S9 is amazing for quality and fit. Don't let the strange (to some people) design fool you. These are high quality headphones. I have compared these to the Motorola 805s (DJ style) and HT820 (behind the head) and expected the S9 not to sound as good - not true. All 3 Motorola headsets sound great, but for the size the S9 sounds overall just as good if not better. I didn't like the sound of the Jabra BT headphones and the Plantronics over the head (590A) headset sounded good, but not as good as the S9.
By the way I tested a Jawbone and was not impressed at all. Didn't like the fit, sound was only OK and if you need the noise cancellation you have to press a button on the unit for 3 seconds to turn it on - each time. Certainly this is good technology, but for me the Plantronics 665 fits better and over all sounds much better.

I am using a Jabra BT620s for music and calls. Sound quality is very good. Nice fit, good battery performance and fits nicely on my head It has blue leds on both sides that blink when in use, its a bit weird at first but once you get past the oooohs and aaaahs from everyone its great
Has controls aswell (next, previous, volume up/down, accept call/hang up, play/pause) The accept/hangup key has the extra function when not in a call, it activates the voice command program so you can talk commands to your phone

has anyone tried SE HBH-DS970 with this ? comments ?
thx

sorry this is a double post

Anyone tested the HTC Touch E100 or W100 Wired Remote Control?
http://www.expansys.com/htc/p_htc_item.aspx?i=147565
http://www.expansys.com/htc/p_htc_item.aspx?i=150194
-Does it work on the Touch?
-Does it work with HTC Audio Manager?
-Does the FM Radio works?
What's the difference between E100 & W100 model?

I have a Nokia CK-7W buildin carkit in my car (company carkit) which also had bluetooth. Unfortunatly this bluetooth connection gives alot of problems when calling.
I can hear people fine but they hear constant break-ups in the connection. I tried it with a Sony bluetooth headset and everything worked fine.
So dont use the touch combined with a Nokia CK-7W

I'm using the Sony BT20NX and theyre absolutely the best. High quality stereo audio with AVRCP (?) remote profile which works with Windows Media Player, Audio Manager, and TCPMP. The headset is comfortable to wear, blocks outside sound so you can enjoy music at a low volume. The sound is clear and the connection is solid. The buttons are easy to use and I use it for MS Voice Command too, which is awesome. Perfect headset, if you can still find them (I heard theyre discontinued).

Best Bluetooth Stereo Headset

What is the best bluetooth stereo headset?

That's sort of a tough question to answer... I doubt many of us have experience with a large enough variety of headsets to say what's "best." You're going to get a lot of personal opinion.
I have a Motorola H700 and have been very happy with it. With my phone on the charger in my office, I can be anywhere in my house and hear clear as day. The volume goes plenty loud, it charges quickly, and is quite small and comfortable. My callers usually can't tell I'm on a headset. The flip-out-to-answer feature is really nice as well.

DR-BT20NX by sony.
Are definitely not the best

The H700 is very popular. Unfortunately, it isn't stereo.
I'll be sure to stay away from the Sony DR-BT20NX.

Check out the Jabra BT8010. It is a bit big though.

go 4 snookey s9 motorola i think i used correct name
these r those neck band ones go 4 it

I have a Sony-Ericcson HBH-DS970 and really like it - very small in-ear buds with great sound, and remote control unit for music.
Still use my Jawbone mono for when I'm just making calls - but if I'm out for a walk and want to listen to music and be able to take calls, the HBH-DS970 works great.

[Q] What's best, most comfortable stereo bluetooth headset?

Just looking for personal experiences. Please provide links.

This is the easiest question ever.
Jabra BT3030. You plug in your own preferred headphones that YOU like.
I think their NEW version is called the "clipper" or something.

Don't know how these compare to others cause haven't tried any others.

I just bought the Samsung HM3500 and love it.

Second. i use these as well. they're awesome.

Jawbone Icon

If your looking for stereo, this headset is very comfortable and sounds great.

Samsung WEP870. Not only good for music, but the unit separates to let you use it as a bluetooth jawbone type headset. Adjustable volume, answers calls from the headset, and has 2 mics, as well. $~30. Bass is *excellent*, as is battery life.

Best Bluetooth Headphone/Headset with Stereo and Mic for phone calls?

The pace of change of Bluetooth Headsets make it hard to keep up.
Can anyone recommend a good quality Bluetooth Headset/Headphones.
I would get the Sennheiser PCX 360 BT except it doesn't appear to have a microphone built in so there's no way to use it for phone calls.
Suggestions and reasons please folks........

I like my Nokia BH-905.
More compact then the PX360 BT with great clarity and call sound, also has Noise canceling which is not as great as Bose, but work fine for my light travel use.
I would highly recommend these over the Sennheiser.

My MW600 with a good headphone make the job perfectly and give me also FM tuner

The best in-ear headphones with remote control

Hello everybody !
I'm looking for the good-quality headset with mike and remote control (VolumeUp/Down FF/Rewind and answering button.
Are there any really good one compatible with our great HOX ?
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,

Try the urBeats that comes with the HTC sensation xe the remote works well with the one x or else try the sony smart headset (wired)
If you dont want to buy a new headset use this apphttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.chobirich.tools.mediabutton&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImpwLmNvLmNob2JpcmljaC50b29scy5tZWRpYWJ1dHRvbiJd
It can remap your stock headset button to do a lot more functions!

the a-Jays One+ Earphones are especially made for Android and have that functionality

Ya they are also good but they also have only one button on the remote and do all the functions through the provided software!

I've tested today in 4 Sony's and HTC brand stores, Sony works like Ipone headphones - u can listen, but can't control, only one button active - start/stop. The same with HTC RC E190, only DrDre Monster in-ear recognized by stock player and PlayerPro - you can FF/Rewind/Start/Stop and answer a call plus better sound than others. There is no way to control sound level (volume) by DrDre monster as far as i know, i will try to resolve this by the ProPlayer settings.

I have heard that the HTC RC E190 works with the one x from the other threads and the sound quality is also good for its really cheap price !
But I personally use the urBeats that come with the sensation xe they work well and sound quality is good in my opinion !
And to control the volume I use the remote control app with the beats headset so the play/pause button can be used to control the volume..Press 5 times to decrease and 6 times to increase it !

Cool!!! Thanx, it's really works!

i have a phiaton ps 20 bluetooth headset. they are semi in-ears. you can adjust volume, fast forward or back songs and answer or decline phone calls with them. sound quality is actually pretty good. they can be pricey (in the $120+ range on amazon) but i did see them somewhere for about $70. my only complaint is no voice dialing function.

love my Jays a-Jays One+.. even though there's only 1 button, most audio players these days have options to utilize the single button with single/double/triple clicks so doesn't bother me in terms of control. and the main point, they sound great.. way better than the urBeats (or any Monster/Beats in-ear headphones for that matter) ... and are way cheaper

i have the sony mw600 bluetooth stereo headset. it links up to phone and controls music etc and also calls from it. also can just be a stand alone radio if needed. very pleased with it.

I'm using Bose ie2 (I guess) - the ones with remote control but not for iPhone...
In combination with headset button controller.... I really like it
sent from my HTC One X

I bought some NOCS NS400 - 3 buttons remote, but it's made for the iPhone: I can only use one button. I am very happy with the way they sound.
NOCS also has NS200 made for Android with a 3 buttons remote.

I'm currently using urBeats (came with my One X)....they sound pretty good and the remote buttons works perfectly...i've also got a Sony Ericsson MW600 Bluetooth headset but I haven't paired it up yet to test
For those who said that buttons don't work on their headset, I would purchase/download Headset Button Controller (or even download the trail version first). You can assign commands to the non working buttons on your headset remote...it's great for all those headsets that are designed to work on iPhone

I just bought NOCS NS200 as per the recommendation above. Got it for 40USD.

Got a pair of white NoiseHush NX80 for about £15. Awesome effect combined with the beats audio plugin on my One X. The a-Jays android app works with this. So double click skips to next track and triple click goes backwards. Click and hold increases volume and double click and hold decreases volume.
Gives an excellent performance and on the cheap.

Bought the headset and it is so good. I can't wait to break them in for 20 hours and feel its real power. Mine is with one button. I suggest you use the NOCS software in Google Play. It kicks.
