stereo bluetooth 3.5mm adaptor

I was thinking about buying one of these.
Does anyone else have one? Are they an good?

I have just a basic usb to 3.5 headphone adapter, and I use iPod headphones.
Sounds great to me.

Yea, I bought those and they are being shipped to me right now.
But I think that the stereo bluetooth adapter seems pretty convenient, no?
If HTC shipped a bluetooth adapter like this, I wouldn't complain about the lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack

Or you could just get stereo BT headphones and forget the wires and adapters!

No stereo bluetooth headphones can compare to my Shure earbuds.
Plus I think that most stereo bluetooth headphones are clunky.
Do you have a nice pair though? any recomendations?

I got one from ebay as well. I paid less than that, but it's still the same. They all are manufactured in China. I use mine everyday. Good sound quality, works right out of the box. I haven't really had any problems.
I only have two complaints. 1. You cant use them while charging, as the charger shown in the third picture is plugged into the headphone port. Strange, yes but it works. That is not really that much a problem, because it has great battery life! 2. No matter what I do, I cannot connect it to my computer to stream music from my computer to the A2d2p adapter. (or whatever it's called, lol) If you come up with a solution after you get yours, please post, or email me.
For me, price was an issue. I didn't want to spend a whole lot of money to listen to music from my phone, but I wanted good sound quality. Regular Bluetooth Stereo Headphones are expensive. For me, this was the way to go. I bought this and a pair of Sony wrap around headphones, and I am rockin'. I think you will be pleased.
**edit**
PS - I have attached the manual I got from a Chinese Suppliers site, as one doesn't come with it. At least not with mine. (Maybe thats why I got mine cheaper, lol)
PSS - And you know they are not only headphone adapters, but can be used for calls as well. It is kind of awkward to hold the adapter up to talk to someone, but I usually just clip it on my lapel. OK, done editing now.

Nice! Thank you for the information!
I think I'm going to get one, I just have to be careful because most of the ones they are selling on Ebay only have UK outlet plugins. I live in the US, and it looks like you do too by the picture of your plug.

I have these:
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-DRBT21G-...?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1246133334&sr=8-29
Great sound, comfy and durable as hell.
But I think im going to try out these next as I want something smaller and lighter, Im still shoppin though for a newer pair:

Cool dude. The Voyager ones look nice, but I think I'm gonna go the cheap route and just get the converter.

I have one of these:
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/products/accessories/overview/hbh-ds200?cc=CA&lc=en
It's a Sony Ericsson DS-200 which I bought last year specifically so I could plug some decent headphones in!
I think it was fairly expensive - about £50 when I bought it, but it has worked great with anything that I've wanted to pair with it, including my Excalibur.
But it's far better than using a wired headset with a 3.5 jack in my opinion, because if you use "proper" earphones that come with a long-ish cord then combine that with the long-ish cord from the wired headset then it makes for some nightmareish tangles! Using A2DP seems like freedom in comparison!
Highly recommended

Lol about the longish cord, gave up on wired headsets as the ammont of times i'd rip the cord when cycling, i'm using STAK semi enclosed cans made for 3 network they were cheap bout £30 and give loud playback with comfortability and like post above a2dp makes listening to music far more enjoyable skippin tracks in an instant answering calls in an instant...
BT is the deffenat way to go
Then cap it off with PocketPlayer....

I'm using Sennheiser CX300, not audiophile grade by any means but certainly better than bundled headphones or stuff like that, they're great.
I love impressing people on the bus by hiding the A2DP receiver in a pocket and then watching a movie or something on my phone, I've had a few people who were watching over my shoulder anyway ask me how I was listening to the sound! Hehe

[Q] Bluetooth Headphones recomendations?

hey guys i'm looking for a good bluetooth stereo headset to hook up to my phone so i can go run, any recommendation?

How much are you willing to spend? This is for listening to music?

yes listening while working out...i dont want wire ...um 200 is max i guess

Sony Ericsson mw600. All the features work with the gs2 stock music app.
Deebo took your bike too?

In my ears it is. It took me a while to decide on what ones to get. These can last around 14hrs or so on a charge and charge by micro usb.
I sometimes use the samsung headphones that came with the gs2 if i don't want the bt module on my shirt. I put it to my pocket. Kinda pointless to some but I keep my phone cordless like this.
I an charge it on a table or something while still using the bt function. And the stock ear buds for the gs2 have a mic and I think the mic is used during a call. Cause people say they can hear me fine when the module is in my pocket or far away from my mouth.

I am using a Plantronics Backbeat. The one I bought came with a dongle that plugs into a non-bluetooth device. So I use the headset with my phone, via bluetooth. And also can hook up to my TV using the dongle. Under $100.
Picked it up last year at Fry's.
-LF

I use a Motorola S305 set. They are cheap in price (under $40 at Amazon) but sound pretty decent. Owned them for almost a year with no problems.

i got a huge list
however of the ones that performed the best
Motorola HT820 the best sound and beat, full feature, easy to use, extra long battery life
as of today i've not found anything that can compare, i've pretty much purchased every sony, jabra, motorola, platonic, all other names i forgot, etc, etc
all the rest were like meh.. 3rd place or worse rating
platonics are the worse
in 2nd place best i'll name Jabra BT8010 super convenient, it kinda sucks in the sound quality for audiophile but gets the job done if you want elegance

What about the LG HBS700: http://www.amazon.com/LG-HBS-700-Wi..._1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1319749852&sr=1-1 inexpensive, comfortable. great sounding.

the wires kinda defeats the purpose
that's something i didn't quite like about the Jabra BT8010
i'm looking forward to try out the new Motorola MOTOACTV https://motoactv.com/ which also have bluetooth stereo addon MOTOROLA SF700

any bluetooth headset recomendations?
Has anyone used one that works with the voice recognition software on the phone? I used to have an old wm5.0 phone that worked great with ms voice command.
I was looking at the Voyager 975. Not sure if it supports the voice though.

Have the Samsung HM3700. Great for talking and music with earbuds that attach to the headset.

best Bluetooth headphones

has anyone bought bluetooth headphones? need a good pair to wear to the gym!

DELL BH200 Bluetooth 2.0 Stereo Headset

Sennheiser MM550 - Sony DR-BT50

If you like full sized headphones like I do, I highly recommend Wireless Rythym by Miikey Stereo. The sound quality, bass response, efficiency and ease of use is out of this world.
Keep in mind that I have been through more than 10 different headsets in the last 2 years. I think I have finally found what I have been looking for.

I got my set at Fry's for $50. I can see them being a problem with someone with a large head though, as the cord isn't very long. I also have experience with the Moto S10's which are also nice.

Sony Ericsson MW600 Bluetooth. They are in-ear earbuds but you can simply unplug them and plug in any other headphone that have the 3.5mm plug turning them into Bluetooth. So you can take your favorite wired headphone and make them Bluetooth. I wear them everyday and they are only $40-$50 on Amazon.

I recently bought a pair of future sound lab zero headphones (also for use at the gym) and am quite satisfied with them. Very comfortable and great sound quality.
Only annoyance is the non-standard charging plug. Would've been better if they'd used a mini or micro usb port.

I really like my chinese BH-503 headphones. It's seems to be original Nokia, but so cheap on chinese shops (you can easily find it on ebay). Good sound quality and work time.

I've been using these for about 3 years without a problem. Paired with Poweramp's equaliser, you can really tune them to suit your taste and genre of music. They're also decent on battery, cheap, and eady to modify.

I bought a pair of Motorola S305 headphones, they are over the ear style, the band goes behind the neck, they charge with standard micro usb, the sound is decent, a little static in my ears on phone calls, but people say they can hear me better than on my phone alone. I've recommended them to my friends, and four of them bought them, all but one still loving them. The other sold them for inner ear bud style ones.
I'm still using mine, still loving them
Oh, and like $30 on newegg

Yep, I have the LG Tone+ bluetooth earbuds and they work very well.
I assume you're enquiring about the play/pause/forward/back buttons on the headphones and whether they work with the Play Music program? If so, then yes, they work flawlessly for me at least.

Old school Plantronic BackBeat 903's work fine.

Rocking the Jaybird Bluebuds X and it connects within 2 seconds, consistently. I use them with Play Music for my cloud music, and PowerAmp for offline media. Their MSRP is expensive, but I got them brand new for way under MSRP, thanks to SlickDeals

I bought them in the apple store $129.00

Not earbuds, but have been using the Sony DR-BTN200 bluetooth on ear headphones and they work great! It is NFC compatible as well, so it complements marvelously with my Nexus 5.

not earbuds but I use this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Avantree-Saturn-Bluetooth-Transmitter-corporated/dp/B0085HOM4K
With my very old but awesome sounding denon 751's. It makes any ear/headphones bt compatible and in my experience it works great at close range either in the car or while commuting. Battery lasts me about 5 to 6 hours use over 4 days.
Sound quality has not been hit at all my denons sound the same as when plugged in directly to the nexus 5.

Yup I've used both GoGroove BlueVibe EBX and Klipsch Image ONE Bluetooth headphones.

i really like them for working out or running. they stay in place. the only con i have about them is that if you wear them with the cord behind your neck sometimes they can get caught when turning your head certain ways. to avoid that now i just wear them with the cord to the front. doesnt look as cool lol but cant feel anything but the buds in your ears. the sound quality is decent. one big thing i loved about these tho is that when you're wearing them it doesnt feel like you're covering your ears with your hands and can hear everything like footsteps or anything rubbing up against you. i originaly bought some jaybirds and they did exactly that, it was just too annoying for the price i had paid. i could hear my footsteps in my head and the cord rubbing up against my neck, you had to put the music too loud to try and cover the noises but you could always hear it

Great, thanks for all the replies guys.
I got myself a Plantronics BackBeat GO 2 Bluetooth Earbuds and they worked amaizingly with all the buttoms features it has, they are like 8 diferent combos for calls and etc.
I would really recommend this if anyone is looking for great bluetooth earbuds. :highfive:

they work perfectly... even though they're a bit older now and kind of bulky

Headphones?

I already have the bullet wireless v1. But i don't no if I should update to the v2 or should i get the skullcandy indy. Qnd suggestions would be appreciated.

For $99, how good can they really be?! SkullCandy is the better choice, if you feel the need to buy new headphones. Just remember though, the device does not come with a USB-C to headphone adapter in the box, in case you are interested in using wired headphones. Personally, I still prefer to use my Sennheiser HD598C's.

I can't stand earphones that completely plug your ears. So... I use airpods with my android phone. Shhh. Don't tell anyone.

Go with bluetooth head phones

If you already have wired earphones, instead of a dongle, I highly recommend this: https://www.fiio.com/btr3

I bought a Set of Massdrop X Nuforce EDC and very happy with them, so I have pre-ordered https://drop.com/buy/drop-nuforce-move-wireless-in-ear-monitors

At what price

Can someone confirm that I can get any headphones that are USB-C?
I see headsets on Amazon listed that show specific "compatibility" requirements, so I'm wondering if this would be something I need to worry about.
Or is just any headset with USB-C ok?

Instead of wearing down the USB C port with constant connects and disconnects of a dongle, get a good bluetooth DAC and you are set. I myself use a combination of Fiio FH1 in-ear monitors and Fiio BTR3, planning to upgrade to BTR5 when it launches

Buy a pair of redmi airdots for just 20$ that's very good

If you've already got the V1 Bullets Wireless, don't bother upgrading. I lost my V1s so I bought the V2s, they sound awesome, but it doesn't matter because they keep falling out of my ears. I miss the fins on the V1s because then I didn't have to keep adjusting them and putting them back in my ears.
