Anyone know of some good headphones to use with the Incredible 2? I'm looking for something like the sony headphones
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-E10L...D4/ref=sr_1_33?ie=UTF8&qid=1322849895&sr=8-33 like these but with a mic/remote?
I do have bluetooth but it's a PS3 one and it's too much of a hassle to reconnect to my phone after connecting to ps3 and I prefer stereo over just one ear.

These are AMAZING! I use them with my Inc2 all the time. I got 'em when they were on sale on Amazon for $40!
Abit too expensive for me.. and i don't really like in-ear buds =/ Wait is it possible to just use my current headphones and still use the phone to speak through?

yes. i do that all the time as well as use my truck speakers with the tape adapter as my speakerphone.
I use a pair of hd sound buds I got from 5 below for, you guessed it $5. They are the best I have seen. The sound is real good and if they break I just go get another pair. They have a mic for calls too. Everyone I call says I sound real good through this headset. Cant beat $5 for a good set of buds w/ a mic. I have paid a lot more for sets that were not as good. I keep a spare set around b/c I am hard on headsets.
I use audio technica's clip on earphones, really comfortable and portable. The cable is lined with cloth, so it is a lot more sturdy than plastic or rubber, and it is near impossible to get it to tangle up, even after being tossed around in a wadded-up mess for a few days. Best headphones I have ever bought. They are a little on the expensive side, and they don't have a mic, but I listen to a lot of music, and I definitely fee like I got my money out of them.

Might wanna check out Amazon's selection of Sennheiser earbuds right now. I've always trusted in Sennheiser for great quality at a great price.
http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_s...nheiser+earbuds&rh=i:aps,k:sennheiser+earbuds
These ones:
http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-MK...YMF4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1323525004&sr=8-1
are marked down from 80 to 23! And some of the reviews say 70 was a great price for the quality. The next model up retails for 120 and is on sale for 30.
Or, go to Target and get a pair of Skull Candy ink'd earbuds. They are 17 or so, and sound comparable to much more expensive sets. Was really impressed by them for paying under 20. And the noise cancellation is great, too.
I just bought a pair of sony sweet little buds:
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-EX33LP-BLU-Style-Headphones/dp/B001RB24KK
They were 20 or so, and the reviews on Amazon are pretty positive, but I don't think they sound as good as the Skull Candies at all. So they are going back to the store
I find that the urbanears bags works well with a mic for 30, or the klipsch s4a sound pretty amazing for 100. the klipsch app works pretty well for controlling headphones with one button.

The Klipsch s4 is pretty bass heavy though. The phones I prefer for compressed, on the go usage are the Klipsch S2 if you can find any variety of them.

Koss Porta Pro's. Sound great, nice sound balance, and pretty darn affordable. They have a lifetime warranty, and I believe I saw a version with a built-in mic.
I find the klipsch s4 to be reasonably balanced, but the bass is better tuned. they are squeezing a lot out of the high end.
I think that was a very complicated way to say "i agree."

What's Bluetooth phone for great quality at a great price...? Incredible 2.
I use the Skullcandy Titan model. For only $40 they're amazing. I see no reason to go above and beyond and pay $99 or $150 for Beats when these are awesome and compare to the same quality output. They're totally worth the 40 bucks.
For daily music enjoyment riding mass transit (buses/subways or trains) - a pair of in-ear, noise-cancelling headphone/mic is what I carry/use (picked up mine from a Brookstone sale 2 years ago, iphone compatible) and it is great.
The key is to install/enable/use DSP Manager on the ROM if not stock - I can fine tune the music/video settings as needed for various boost & equalization.
For the occassional oversea/long distance air travel, I take the full-sized Sony NC headset with the cups - I just don't feel the need to spend hundreds to buy into the Bose brand.
YMMV, of course.
I use the Beats by Dr Dre ear buds. They are around $75, but the difference between these and a $5 pair is I wont have to buy a new pair next week. These baby's last.

I like my cheap headphones. The sound is as good as I need it to be, they have lasted for two years now, and if I do lose them or break them I can replace them without breaking the bank. I use them on my motorcycle, in the sauna, while I work out, work in the yard, etc. I don't know that I would be comfortable abusing an expensive pair like I do these.
For me they are just like sunglasses, the cheaper they are the more I like them and the longer they last and the more expensive ones get lost, stolen, or broken right away. It's like they have an odd niche in the market for being backwards or contrary to what one would think.

Well the thread title says you want headphones that cost more than 25 bucks. I'm assuming you meant less than 25. There are very few earbuds that are good for such a low cost. Me, I used the one provided with the phone.
Good ear buds go for more around the 100 price range though. I recommend these http://www.klipsch.com/image-S4A-headphones
I don't own a pair but I tried my friends, man, they are pretty good.

I use smokin buds by skull candy literal every day in the gym, and my main music ranges from meek mills to ffdp and everything in between, they hold up to it all and never have blown on max volume all day. Plus there are tons of colors to choose from. $25 everywhere you go. And even cheaper most places

Although they don't go in the ear canal, the Gumy earbuds by JVC are, by far, the best sounding earbuds I've ever heard for under $25. They are almost as good as my Klipsch s4 earbuds and tend to be more comfortable since they are disc shaped and sit on the outer edge of the ear. They look similar to the Apple earbuds, but produce a much richer sound than the Apple buds.
I would rate the Klipsch s4 buds as the overall best sounding ones I own, followed closely by the JVC Gumy buds. They sound great with the Beats equalizer on my HTC Rezound. Both are better than Skullcandy FMJ earbuds and Skullcandy inkd earbuds, IMHO. Keep in mind that I listen to extreme metal and don't like too much bass in my earbuds.
Gumy earbuds are $9 at Walmart or Target. The Klipsch s4 are $80 at Worst Buy.

I'm using Meelectronics M9P, pretty good for something under $25 as well.
IMO the M9P's bass does slightly overpower the mids, and I personally find that vocals are slightly recessed as well. But it's good enough for my commuting needs
I'm using creative ep 630.
They are great, just remember to glue those ear buds to the thing itself our you're going to lose them for sure
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004S7Q8CA/ref=oh_o00_s00_i00_details I got those, and they are amazing for the price at around 15 pounds.
Look up soundmagic E10, on par with the s4's. Build quality not the best, but sound is brilliant for the price.

I recommend you look through this thread, if you really want to maximize your purchase.

If you find it "TL;DR", skim through the your desired price range, and note down those with the highest(>8.0) Sound and Value ratings, then with your options narrowed down, read his comments on their sounds, and details like what's included in the box, build quality etc.
If you're really not in a rush, go one price-range tier higher, as you can often find them under discount such that they actually fit within your budget.
anyone know how urBeats bundled with the one x compare to senheiser cx300's? I just wanna decide if I should sell the urBeats and BNIB is obviously better for earphones!

pretty decent for the price ...

I'm looking to get a new set of headphones, wondering what everyone is using.
I'm looking for some that are less than $30-40, not looking for audiophile quality, just good solid headphones.
I want earbuds so that i can carry them with me. tangle free would be a plus, as would android controls and a mic.
I found these 2 on amazon for cheap, anyone have any experience with either?

I'm not sure if over the ears are an option but these are excellent for the price, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RB24S2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8. Fantastic bass, clear highs, deep lows. Sound stomps beats. As far as comfort, the pads are extremely soft and light weight.

sorry, I should have specified, I'm looking for ear buds, to be able to put them in my pocket and carry with me. I edited original post.
I would highly suggest the NuForce NE600M ($30). It doesn't have in-line volume controls, but it has the mic and button for pausing/skipping. I don't own this model, but I do own three others from the same company (including the model that this one replaced) and they sound great and the mic is surprisingly decent considering the cost. I can't vouch for how well the self-detangling cord works, since its new to this model, but it does have it.
I can't post links yet, but just search NE600M on amazon, it comes in black, red, and lime. The NE600X ones do not have the mic.
I actually like the ones the phone came with

How about these? Reviews look good. No controls though.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RB24S2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
If you want something with controls that offer quality it's going to cost around ~50. Probably more i.e. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001RB24S2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8
Keep in mind if you want full functionality control, the headphones should be labeled as Android compatible.

Not quite the $40 mark... But I've really enjoyed these noise cancelling buds from Rocketfish. I paid $60 at Bestbuy sometime ago.
Bought the Image S4 Black In-Ear Headphones at Best Buy a year ago. They sell for $79 but they are well worth the money. I've been blown away by them, the sound quality is beyond anything Bose has made and it also blocks out outside noise/sound!

I have the Xears XSR330PRO but most people from head-fi.org seems to appreciate the Xears XE200PRO more.
See head-fi.org XEARS appreciation thread here.
Also... use the promo code: KLANGFUZZIS and the total will be about $43.32 USD for XE200PRO. Only downside is the shipping... I got mine in about 10 days but it was worth the wait.
For reference, my Xears XSR330 has better all around sound with a punchier bass than my $120 Westone UM1. It's also much louder.

Klipsch s4 - Haven't heard better yet. Only problem for me with any in-ear is even the smallest buds don't fit very well.
I vote S4's too. Amazon is not the best place to buy though. I got mine for $59 shipped on Ebay, from Beach Camera which is an official dealer.
so i hear this question all the time, for every phone. i personally use $15 sony earbuds, but if you are looking for the best and dont mind spending money....
The Most Intense Ear Buds Sennheiser Has Ever Made will run you about $1000 according to reviews, but i haven't found anywhere to buy them...
If you are trying to save money, the IE80's will run you under $400
but seriously, i think they have some for under $20 also =)
Well I must say that ie80's working great together with sgs3...

Audio is extremely subjective. Not everyone has the same hearing, the same sound signature preferences or even budget for that matter. Headfi is a good place to get started, but in order to appreciate the sound of the headphones, words are not nearly enough You'll have to give them a listen yourself.
I own 3 headphones I use with my S3.
1st. Samsung Infuse Earphones that came with that phone when I got it back in March. Works good for me honestly.
2nd. Motorola S9-HD 1stGen. Bluetooth. Yeah they actually still work even with all my sweat in them. Sounds good but can't get good bass cause I lost my large ear cushions for them.
3rd. My Motorola S805? I believe that came with my Giro snowboarding helmet 3 years ago. Those things are also still kicking!!!
Yeah I take care of my stuff. Honestly though, clear sound is important, but holy flippin' crap I'm not spending $400 for music listening!!!
I find my s3 oem is good enough for daily use . I also have klipsch x10 which is amazing for its size the only thing bad about the klipsch is the built quality other than that the sound is superb !

Waiting for some money, then I'm getting Jays a-Jays One+. Had the ordinary One until it died, superb sound and phenomenal bass. Courtesy of my SGS and Voodoo Sound

I have some Logitech UE 300vm's that I just picked up and they are the finest pair of relatively inexpensive ear buds I have ever owned. Sound quality is amazing with structural quality to match. I have had plenty of high dollar earbuds that we no where near this nice. Highly recommend checking these out if you have a quick $60 laying around they do not disappoint. :thumbup:

IE800 are much, much better:
http://en-de.sennheiser.com/ie-800
They can be fitted with a cable that works 100% with Samsung Galaxy S series phones.
I have used Audeo Phonak PFE 022 and cannot recommend them: the mic is really not very good and the sound quality left me wanting compared to even Sennheiser's low end line, like mm70i.
There really aren't very many good mic-headsets that work with Galaxy S III without any additional adapter cables and w/ full inline remote controls.

Are you using any kind Portable Amplifier with your IE80?
Loving my Rock-It R50's, but it really depends what kind of music you listen to.
check out http://www.head-fi.org
Currently, Shure SE315 's. Next week I'll have VSonic GR07. However for the high-end IEM's mentioned here. What's your complete setup? Please.
SE315, Paid version of Equalizer
(fx music off) and most importantly is my fiio E6 Portable Amplifier (best $25 I've ever spent)
The IE80's, Shure 535's mentioned, please what kind of setup?
I was about to purchase the Westone 4r but the VSonic GR07 are too highly rated at half the price with the FiiO E11, It will be the music I've ever heard. But these new small portable Amplifier give us the power needed.

While I am at home, I use a pair of Audio Technica's ATH-M40fs. They sound great with the awesome beats mod. If you decide to get these, you will need a 1/4 inch to 1/8 inch adapter. It can be found at any Radioshack. Also the cable is very long since it is a pair of studio headphones so it isn't good to use while on the go.
Koss portapros are weird looking but cheap and have excellent sound (and quite a cult following)
I only listen to audiobooks and talk radio, so any old earbud for less than $25 IMO
I like my Sennheiser CX200 ear buds rather well.
Blocks out most sound, clean crisp sound and get nice and loud if I want them to.
Best of all, somewhere like the "egg" has 'em for $20 US.
Vsonic GR02 With Poweramp is best combination
Still best IEM for price tag, value for money
Soundmagic e10's, they sound great and are a great value at $35 on Amazon. I bought them as back ups as they were pretty cheap and the reviews were great. They have replaced my s4's and a pair of Sony iem's I paid about a 100 bucks for lol.
