Well I got the lg hbs 700 and I am very impressed and happy with them except for one thing.
No bass!!
$9.99 ifrogz head phones from Walmart sound alot better then the lg. Maybe its the Bluetooth technology??
I was thinking of cutting of the lg buds and switching them with ifrogz.
Well that's the bad, everything else is great!!!

Well salty...
I've been wondering the same thing. I see the 903's have better reviews than the HBS-700... they are cheaper, but it seems the "fit" of the 903's are less desirable than the HBS-700's.
Here's my take. Plantronics is "badass". I had several pairs of gaming wired stereo headphones, and they were unbelievable in sound quality. One of my hobbies is Studio Audio production, so I thrive on the best sound possible. Most studio quality headphones cost hundreds of dollars... and here we have Plantronics @ less than $60 blowing away the competition.
Bluetooth technology isn't the best for sound quality... or any wireless for that matter. RF seems to be the best, but for cells? No.
I have a pair of 903+ in my Amazon shopping cart ready for purchase... I can get around the fit, and even minor glitches if I can get the best quality. Get me?
Besides... The HBS-700 still have wires from the unit to your ears... I can just see them getting caught on moving hands or anything else that passes by the head on a daily basis.
Just my 2 cents.
both are good. i have both of them. the plantronics is very irritating at the back of the ear for a long period of time and same with lg irritating at the neck when sweating. sounds for lg, the design for plantronics.

Bass Instruction
While playing music, press and hold VOLUME UP and VOLUME DOWNbuttons simultaneously for 1 second to switch between EQ's(Normal or Bass). The headset will beep
I had the original 903s and now have the 903+. In between these I tried the Jaybirds, which I sent back within two days. I love the fit of 903s and the sound is terrific for a BT headset.
My opinion is buy the 903+. You will not be sorry!

actually, it improved a bit. after comparing my lg bhs 700 with my plantronics backbeat 903+. LG BHS 700 is comportable,
the plantronics BB 903 is still has the best sound. despite of irritation in the ear when you wear it for a long period of time.

I figured I'd resuscitate this thread. I just bought the LG HBS700's to replace my s9-HD's.
maybe I was spoiled by the amazing bass delivered by the S9-HD's but... while the HBS700's sound good all around, they have pretty weak bass in my opinion. if you tweak the EQ enough it gets acceptable. But since my S9-HD's still work, (mic on it is weak though.) I'm taking the LG's back and looking for something else.
...likely just get another set of S9's online, lol. note. regular S9 ROKRS BLOW. the S9-HD are amazing though.

I agree with this sentiment. I was lucky enough to get them for free when Verizon made a mistake in the mobile app, listing them as free one month. Battery life is awesome. Sound quality is superb!
I would get logitech wired headphones. I have had many böse headphones and for $60, none of them compared. They also have a in line button and mic designed for Android. 5/5 overall

i have the plantronic backbeat 903+ and i like it alot. it's pretty discrete but not invisible. sound quality is decent and it also features this function where it opens the mic to pick up and amplify the surrounding noise if you pause your music so you can hear what's going on.
I got mine on sale for 30 bucks. pretty decent. lasts about 6 hours on continuous music. I also took it out for a run and it didn't jiggle. stayed put and comfy.

I have a broken 903+ too, i think its good until started to use stock headphones. Or maybe we can say wired headphones are better, right? But the functionality of 903+ is superb i think.
Thanks
Now i've searched in another forum but they didn't quite understand me.. what I want is a both ears headset, my old one broke, it was the plantronics backbeat 903+, it was practecly perfect.. 7 hours listening to music, complete control over the phone from the headset.. I'm looking for something similer, someone recommended the backbeat GO, but they only have 4 hours.. and it's nothing.. despite how awesome they look.. so.. any suggestions?
tnx in advance.
I have Sony Ericsson Bluetooth dongle. It comes with in ear headphones, but the dongle itself has 3.5 mm input. Yo can use it with all kind of headphones. 10 hours non stop music. And the sound is crystal clear.

If your budget allows ($170), check out the new Jaybird Bluebuds X that just came out a few weeks ago. I ordered mine from their site and am blown away by the sound quality and battery life.
very pricey, but its worth every penny.
how many hours does it actually clock?

I've never done an actual benchmark test on the battery. Perhaps this weekend, I'll pair it with my laptop and leave it streaming throughout the day(s)
I've been pretty happy with the LG Tone headphones I got a while back. They have a collar piece, but it's not bad. Very good battery life and sound.
I got a Motorola s10-hd for $25 from woot.com and it works great

I have an LG Tone headset too (HPS-730). They are pretty comfortable and claimed to have a talk time of 15hours. Although i haven't yet tested that to the max, but i've run through the whole day without charging them.
GS3 has aptX,and the problem is that there are almost no BT headphones that take advantage of this. I have Samsung HS3000 and use with good quality IEMs. It is not as good quality as wired, but is way better than non-aptX headsets.
If you are determined to get a native BT, it is a pretty short list with aptX, like maybe 2-3.
There's a brand new Motorola Bluetooth (S-11 maybe?) Headset which replaces the S10. It has apt-x, the earbuds are adjustable, looks pretty nice. No personal experience though.
I freakin' love my Jabra Sport. Comfortable, light weight, and holds enough charge for 4 trips to the gym each week. And the sound quality is great, with plenty of volume. (http://www.jabra.com/products/bluetooth/jabra_sport/jabra_sport)
I've had the Moto S9 and S10 (essentially identical) and they suck. Moisture always gets in and they stop working. Sound quality is weak and the volume isn't loud enough. Avoid these at all costs. Look at any list of reviews on these and you'll see the same results from everyone.
Hello,
I have a question regarding headset with a mic for GNex.
What is the best? what is most compatible with GNex, play/stop button, answerring/rejecting calls etc. And quite loud and clear sound quality during calls.
Any recomendations?

something cheaper?
I like the Creative EP-650 In-Ear Earphones (there is a hands free model can't remember the model number) had them for more than 5 years still have their bass the best buy so far only thing is cable jingles a little and due to they Y shape it transmits the noise to your years, you need to wear them under your shirt to stop the noise transfer.
Nexus 4 Wired Headset https://play.google.com/store/devic...dset_with_Microphone?id=nexus_4_headset&hl=en
LG Tone HBS700
Bluetooth, all the buttons, great sound.
Recommended the product of aromic floyd.
maybe samsungs stock headset in the box is the best one as the speakers sound...
but i think beats one is the best for microphone...
I had tried a bunch and have been continuously dissapointed with the sound quality on BT headsets. I finally went out and splurged on the Plantronics Voyager Legend and I must say people couldn't even tell I was talking from a BT. Unfortunately mine had a bug and wasn't loud enough on my end and I need to send it back to be replaced but I do think that for good sound quality it is worth the high price tag especially if you are using your phone for business (which is why I needed it). I think some models of similar items to the voyager legend from a year or two ago have already gone down in price so that can help to cut costs.
The plantronics units mentioned above I believe are for use in the building when you are hooking your phone up to them. The units I am referring to are cellphone BT headset
I am using a Jabra Wave headset which is quite convenient and really cheap (14€)
For a bluetooth headset, I am using an LG HBS-730. Sounds great with music. Would sound better if the GNex came with the Apt-x codec, but I have no complaints about the sound. Call functions are compatible with the buttons on the headset. Highly recommended. Can get a refurb model on Ebay for around $40 shipped.
So my last phone before getting the Pixel 3 XL was an LG V30. One of the things I really missed about that phone was the built in quad DAC. I'm not a huge audiophile but I bought a pair of 50 ohm earbuds that the Pixel just won't power enough. I was looking at getting the FiiO A1. Any opinions on that or any other amp/DAC?

Checkout creatives headphone amp, you wont be dissapointed.
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll look it up

Boost volume big time, at some point in high volume gets distorted but full eq to tune to your iiking.
There is a free version to try before buying
go to visit your ear doctor and get the ears picked might solve your problem.
Just teasing lol
Man....many years of listening to music at high volume has led me here. No doctor needed ?
Might be worth keeping an eye on the Helm Boostcable. It's a minimalist, inline amp so it's ultra portable... It just hasn't released yet so who knows if it will actually be worth buying at launch.
Seems like a cool idea though.
I just order this today. Lots of good reviews.

Okay, I just got both units today the spectra X and the Sennheiser 650. WOW! right off the bat I can tell you that both units are well worth the money. The spectra X can be ordered with different connections. I order the USB C to 3.5 Jack. The dac makes a huge difference even with light weight headphones the sound is cleaner, clearer and WAY more distinct then the dac build into the Pixel 3xl. So far I really like it and highly recommend.
The Sennheiser 650, oh my God it's day and night compared to my bose QC35ll. I'm listening to them right out of the box, raw without burning them in and the sound is already amazing! The sound stage is so much larger and smooootthhhher then my bose. I'm no stereo expert, all I know is what I like, and boy, what I hear, I like!

The P3XL doesn't have an analogue output, the built-in DAC exclusively drives the speakers

You should see tge costs of numerous studio grade headsets. These are actually middle of the road in terms of price. A number of sers exceed $700. In no way am I saying the juice is worth the squeeze just that while high compared to generally good consumer sets these are not crazy $$ when you get into top audiophile levels. Forums in general bring out those of extremes regardless of the focus.
I will say the dac analog inline converter while may be great perf even @ the $189 price tag seems to have an issue with droppibg the left channel to speaker. I have seen a few complaints about this and they are specific to the left channel. One I just thought was some extreme nut given his novel long review rant update but then there want another then anothet. All got bad CS and for this price tag which is the top in this form factor that is just not acceptable. The issue could be minor but NOT bad unattentive CS when average unit prices are less thsn 1/2 the cost of this unit.

Razer's Hammerhead BT headphones work great with the OP7P. No lag, great audio (which is better than when they were paired to my Razer Phone 2 where there was noticeable audio lag)

I've got some tranya true wireless which for the money are good. Can't beat my shure 215 with an mmcx bt adapter with aptx from trinity audio though that's round the back of the neck.
Mpow on Amazon cheap and work
I've bought 3 pair of solo 3 beats 29.00 ,41.00 , 42.00 you just have to keep eye out for style you like headband is all the beats needed anything Bluetooth 5.0 is good stay away from old used stuff (2018 or before) unless you can change battery out powerbeats 3 I have paid 12.00 put 8.00 battery in easy good luck

Using Jabra Elite 65ts, completely wireless, was able to get them for 122 bucks. Well worth it. You can listen to one ear bud like ear pods BUT it has to be the right earbud. Also has a hear through feature so you can hear ambient noise (can be turned on and off) and also google assistant.
