For those who've been looking for a pair of great of IEMs with android compatable inline controls, the S4a's are out. Happened to come across them at Futureshop today so it was a pleasant surprise, although I'm still iffy about the 120CAD I put towards them. Once they have about 100+ hours of burn in I'll decide if I'll keep 'em for a few reasons.
The box includes the usual multiple sized tips and the earbuds themselves, but they also come with a clip to use to attach the mic/control onto clothing and a nice sized carrying case.
According to Kilpsch themselves, they have incredible functionality with their customized app, which I'll be looking into it over the next few weeks.
Anyone else been interested in these?

I wasn't even aware of them until now...and now I NEED them. I really have to stop visiting the accessories forum
A simple review would be nice after you've used them a little

Sure.
Just from toying around with them thus far I've come across a couple things that irritate me personally to do with the controls, but I might be able to find workarounds for these little hassles.
Hey guys also there is a klipsch app for these headphones so you can customize the button function

I got them from Futureshop up here in Canada for 120CAD.
Quick first impression:
I expected that you could only customize the three functions (single, double, and triple click) and speed of clicking. That's certainly the case. Their volume control is non-customizable and very finicky, and the speed to control the button timing isn't all too great either. Otherwise it does what it says it does, just not every function at once of course.
I won't go into their sound as there are hundreds of reviews of the S4's sound online, and the only difference with these to the usual S4 is the addition of a button.
the app works for me too no problems
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Old thread by now, but I'm thinking of picking these up for my S2.
I'm sure the sound and stuff is great from the sound of other online reviews, but what I'm worried about is the durability of the cord.
How has your cords been?
And if you could, give a little description of how you've been using them.
Thanks
I saw this on you tube its basically a metal bumper style case its for the normal GS2so i guess it fits the At&t one as well. Has anyone seen somthing along the same lines for our phones

There is one manufactured by a company or called a BLADE, and it is much less flimsy looking that this, it is one large piece basically a frame and a small attachment to lock it in the frame. Seemed much more durable, this thing appears less durable than good old tpu...

i totally agree, its photoshop.
who is the idiot who could render such a beautiful device (ics keys as capacitive at bottom) yet the app drawer icon looks like poo? i JUST learned cs4 2 weeks ago and i coulda done better with the icon...
Ok let's just say it is fake... But what if Samsung decides to make the ics buttons into capacitive buttons and not built in to the screen like the nexus? From my understanding they always **** up Android to their liking so I wouldn't put it past them. I'm sure (to them) anything is better to differentiate them from the rest.

I'm not a big fan of the on screen buttons anyway so I wouldn't mind that.
Anyone care? I will be sticking to the GS3 because the size is just where I like it anything biger would probably be too much...

Take it from me you'll get use to it fairly easy, and whoever said they couldn't fit a note in their pocket is lying, I normally wear skinny jeans and never had a issue with the original note. Only thing I will say is that it will look fairly ridiculous holding it up to your ear to talk, but I've never been one to worry about what people say or think, and I got plenty of compliments about the phone on a daily basis while commuting in the city.

im very interested in this and conflicted on what to do...
i never even held the original note, but i dont mind the bigger size at all... the more the better to me, and with those specs, wooooo...
might have to hold onto one in the store before deciding what to do...
One thing I'm looking forward to is the stylus, I haven't had one since the touch pro 2, I liked it a lot. Less fingerprints, but I don't like how it's on the Bottom? why would they make it come out of the bottom, it's going to wear out and simply fall out eventually... kinda stupid but whatever...
Yup, I'll be selling my S2 and S3 to pick one up as soon as they come out!

How much do you use, and for what do you use the stylus for?
I like having it, it's cool to show off. When I'm not at home I have my phone pin locked so unlocking the phone, pulling the stylus out and then activating whatever I want to use it for is to many steps.
I've tried! I've taken musician numbers, I tried to make a scrap book of stuff I wanted to go shopping for. As a whole, most of those neat things Samsung through it I have no use for. Multi-Window seems one step to much, s-pen window as well.
I thought the stylus would be great for playing retro dos games. Or even games like Shadowrun Returns, the stylus is a "mouse" and Shadowrun Returns does not support other input devices. I installed Fallout and the stylus as mouse didn't work the way I had hoped it would. Where you tap the screen and that's where you click.
To answer my question, I don't use it.
You?

Yep, I use it all the time. I use it in multi Window, s note, action memo. I use it for work taking notes, I use it for the shortcuts it gives instead of the cut and paste things. Instead I just tap drag and drop. It's so useful. Hell, I really don't even use pen and paper much anymore unless it's for signing stuff and at work I get stuff I have to sign of for sent down from a different floor, I sign it and send it back to them. No more having people run around to get things approved.
Not too often, but the stylus comes in really handy when taking screenshots and sharing them with friends.
Not at all, I prefer my fingers. LOL!
No my kid lost mine and it bugs the **** out of me that I can't figure out how to turn off the s-pen on top of the screen but besides that I wouldn't mind using my s-pen. Thanks In advance!!!

I got this phone to help teach myself to draw, two months later I can do a pretty good drawing of any cute lady on a bar napkin! Why would someone have this phone but not use the pen? You're paying a premium for that unique feature...

The premium was the size of the screen to me, not the pen. that was like extra. I use it occasionally, but mostly for making notations on screen captures. My hand writing is pretty bad and the pen does not help that.

But at release there were bigger/same size screens for less money...
The screen size made me get this phone too.
I purchased the Note 3 for the large high quality screen, the Snapdragon 800 processor, 3gb of RAM, SDcard and removable battery. I viewed the Spen as a bonus which, as it turns out, I almost never use for anything other than occasionally marking up photos.
I disagree that it's pointless to buy the N3 and not use the pen. At the time of purchase (Dec 2013), I wasn't aware of any other device that combined all of those specs into one package. At least, not that supported LTE on major carriers here in the US. The Z Ultra came close but was about the same price, and I really wanted that 3gb of RAM. Plus, after reading reviews, I was concerned that the Z ultra wasn't actually pocketable with normal clothing.
It comes in handy
I like to use it when I'm creating quick contact information or when I need to take a screenshot and edit (circle, whatever) the picture before sending it.
I use the pen more often than I thought I would. It has some really nifty features, such as pen hover gives some extra detail in some places, and action memo is fantastic. I thought I'd never use the pen when I first bought the device, but I really do like it.
