So did the beats audio files every really work on our phones?
I personally couldn't tell the difference, but it may be because I didn't put the files in the right spot because I placed them in the folders myself, not just flashed the .zip.

Beats audio is a built in equalizer which sounds like poop unless you can control it. That I think on phones its all software not hardware like on laptops. I have the DV6 from HP with beats and stock its terrible... had to adjust and even then it likes to dim when treble is too high and sounds stupid.

Its alright. although to get true beats experience you need full range beats audio headphones. they are pretty awesome if you ask me
You need beats in the kernel, and beats headphones to experience true beats audio.

You both know nothing about audio. Beats are only popular because they are well advertised and look cool. There are much better headphones and audio drivers. The epic does not even need this placebo crap because we have a wolfson audio chip.

Or better yet The older Skull Candy's reason why is the company who makes the speakers for them changed a afew years ago so now they don't sound as good as they used to.
But I really like Klipsch. I have their Pro Media 2.1 for Pc Has some good hard hitting bass.

Don't have them, but thought some of you may be interested. Personally, I thought the ones that came with my phone sounded pretty good. When I have bought some, though, I usually get skull candy.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
I got some $20 skullcandy headphones on amazon that work great. I also have some vmoda ear plug type that I got back with my original iphone. I like the sound but when I put things in my ear they get itchy. I'm not an audiophile but since I am working on my masters in engineering I know a few people who do a lot with audio and they all say beats is a marketing gimmick. I've personally never put on a pair though.

Something we can agree on, this guy in my speech class said he had paid 400$ for them b/c of warranty and he says the sound amazing, and the bass is good I wanted to laugh so effing hard and state some damn facts of how ****ty they are regardless it his opinion but clearly he hasn't listen to some good damn headphones. I think in all honesty my damn 80$ Klipsch s4's sound better than that POS. The bass go outs in one ear in the beats, design is ****ty. Must I Go ON, with Build Quality.
Its all about the speaker drivers and architecture it uses. The amount of impedance it has, OHM's, etc...
There are two types of main speaker drivers and they are dynamic or something else I can't remember but its more like actual live sound the Klipsch x10 use them if I'm not mistaken

Are you trying to argue for the sake of being heard? I specified what they were equivalent in, they're both garbage. I even went on and gave more descriptive words to define their laughable "quality". Please read carefully or dispute with a bit more of intelligence, but please, do state if you're like 13, I don't find myself a point in arguing with children. Lol, I know you may be slightly butt-hurt / bitter because it was your money that was spent on skull candy's, I'm not hating on the Brand, just the quality sound it lacks to offer. I'd sell your skull candy's to some noob/sucker and invest on some CX 300's on Amazon, you'll want to marry me for recommending such an amazing affordable choice.

Was pleasantly surprised by the very good headphones that came with my one v.
Looks like HTC is finally paying attention to detail and not giving crappy earphones with their smart phones.
Totally unlike a certain company which gives you the same earphones whether you buy an iPod shuffle or an iPhone 4s.

therefore its called lifestyle headphone. if HTC bundled HTC One V with Beats headphone, then you are most likely have to pay $120 more for your phone. just like HTC Sensation XE.
Hah! Yeah
Since HTC has already bought beats, I suspect it won't be long until they start to charge a premium for the headfones.
Of course only extremely dumb or extremely rich people or both would actually buy it

There is an audiophile adage,

I'd have to agree though that Beats are also low quality. Wish there was a way to get rid of the beats branding on my phone..

Just grabbed a pair of Sony xba1 for $60. They sound great for the price and super small too.
Soundmagic E10.... currently using. It is far far better than even stock iphone ear phones.. Outstanding soundstage... It will cost you for around $30 - $35.. You can also google for its detailed review...
For a review you can check this link. http://anythingbutipod.com/2011/08/soundmagic-e10-review/
Phones ware OK for me, but when i get Seenheiser HD518, i reborn.
Some of the htc beats can be found online for a pretty good deal they sound great havent got my s3 yet to see if the music controls work yet tho. Im surprised you say the iphone ones work good those are terrible worst headphones ever always blowing out with cheap sound quality.

I am now using AKG K450 and the only difference between K451 and K450 is that K451 has a mic. That's all
AKG is amazing sound and it does very well on pop and something like that
It's worth it
The headphones on this phone are really good.I have over the ear studio beats and these ear buds produce more base and are very clear Htc bought half of Beats so what technology u think they will use?Very surprised nobody is talking about the quality of the headphones I tried my gf new iphone 5 headphones and these destroy them it was funny watching her face.I Think the ear buds are unbranded Beats

Just a shame about the lack of buttons on the stock headphones.
I found that they have too much bass. Used them for 5 minutes and gave them away. Nice if you listen to hip hop and dubstep but not metal. Definitely not for metal.

Yes the supplied ones are pretty good. Much bass but thats ok for my music. I have better ones at home, but now i´ve an alternative with a button :good:
You can also buy the htc 240 set which is similar but they have the track skip, volume change buttons also. These and the urbeats are the only ones that can do this from a wired pair with this phone as far as my research has led me to believe.

That of course is a possibility. I got mine in Taiwan at the HTC store and the ones that came in the box are unbranded beats. They sound excellent, not as good as my Bose but very good for being included for free.
I have Klipsch head phones and I compared them to the head phones that came with the One. The klipsch have much clearer crisper sound and comparable bass. Just my .02. But the klipsch were not free with the purchase of a phone. I did not find the stock headphones to have good sound.

Nope look the same to me as my international one x. They are good for included headphones better than most. Now if we are judging them based on headphones well we know how good Beats headphones sound which is to say if they sounded as good as they look they would be decent headphones but every review will tell you they are eye candy not ear candy

BT sound is quite ok for me, Speaker sound could be a bit louder, yes. Perhaps the soundboost-mod for Xperia Z could work on the Z1C too? As it also runs on a qualcomm-chip, the chances are pretty good.

Yes, I'm currently using mine with the Jabra Clipper bluetooth transmitter, but I have to almost max the volume on it and on the phone as well to get my normal volume.
Quite weird.
Headphone output is subjectively good. Significantly better than that of the Tablet Z anyway.
It's able to drive my Beyerdynamic DT150 (250 ohm) headphones at above listening volume without any notable hiss or distortion, though they're of course bass anaemic due to the lack of a proper headphone amp.
I suspect 'normal' impedance headphones will be driven at very good quality.
The loudspeaker is mediocre overall. It's about as good as the i9000 with voodoo sound speaker hacks on, so not terrible, but it's certainly no HTC One
i find the sound quality through my sound magic E10's very good but yes i agree the volume is very low, almost as if its finding them to hard to drive. Ive not tried the supplied headphones yet to compare and see if the quality of phones makes the difference.
The supplied IEMs are actually brilliant compared to what phone manufacturers usually provide, easily £30 worth of sound quality
Is the bluetooth which is the worst of the lot. Really low and flat

Coming from the lg g2 this is a huge bump in audio volume in every way. BT, loudspeaker, headphones are all exceptionally louder. The HTC one still has it beat for loudspeaker and headphones though.

I asked sony centre about the sound as well and emailed support. The guys in the shop told me that they do it purposely to sell sent blue tooth stuff.

The sound effect settings are something that Sony has baked in to Android so it's sort of obvious these settings only work with apps that support them.
For me the default sound isn't as good with my £35 Sennheiser's as my S3 was, however the earbuds that came out of the Z1c box are pretty amazing with punchy bass using Google Play Music.
