Bluetooth headset

What would be a good Bluetooth headset that has noise cancellation while on calls and could allow listening to mp3s or Pandora?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Jawbone Icon, but I hear the battery life isn't quit that good. That's the only thing that's prevented me from getting it. Maybe someone else can confirm or recommend something better.

I used this one from Sony Ericsson, http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs...:mw600:dg_ggldf&productId=8198552921666198163
Got it from mobile city for $40 back in June...

I've considered a jawbone for a while but its kinda heavy on the price... the other one is interesting but I don't know

Been using every model of the Jawbone since they were released. The newest Icon is the best ever. Great sound & battery life.

I have a convertible and have always used a bluetooth headset in my car. I have tried almost every dual mic mono bluetooth and the best overall brand is Plantronics. The Voyager has the highest ratings, but is so big and uncomfortable. The 975 is very good, but pricey. The first Jawbones were not great, but the newest Icon is a great headset. However, for the money, the headset I have found to be the most feature rich and best sounding is the Motorola 790. These are all mono sets.

Jawbones are great headsets. Nice audio quality, but not the best volume.
Blueants are another great set, I have used them for a while now.
If you want a stereo, jaybirds are awesome. Hands down.

I agree, and the blueant also has an app from the market that allows custimizations for the headset, if i was honestly gonna invest more money into a bt headset thats the direction i would go

Just fyi;
the blueant Q1 (the one I have) the app doesn't work for Froyo.
and,
the Blueant Q2 (the one I want to get) doesn't have an app yet. However, the Q2 is still pretty new, so I'm sure the app is en route.
Supposedly the Q2 has some kickass sound. Can't wait, personally

Had the original jawbone for years now and it was a ga=ood headset but uncomfortable fit. Got the blueant z9i but the noise cancellation wasn't as good as the jawbone. Just picked up the jawbone icon and the noise cancellation is unparalleled. People can't even tell I'm in my car with the windows halfway down. Plus it has a much smaller and more comfortable fit than the original. Oh yeah, it handles a2dp also! Definitely the way to go. Only complaint, volume could be louder.

Ya know, that's the problem with so many of these headsets. They just don't have the volume for real world applications.
It's like they only think people use them in a car or in the office. That's why I took back my Jawbone. Great set, but I couldn't hear squat.
Oh yeah, the Blueant Q1 and Q2 support A2DP...

I have the BluAnt Q2 and it works pretty good for playing music and everything else.

I use lg hbs-700

I second that motion, jawbone is the way to go. Battery life is approximately 4 hours more or less(constant streaming). It does support Ad2p and extreamly well. Everybody's talking about the audio not loud enough but if you have a rooted phone you can find dsp manager, (I know cayogen offers it in his roms) and you can find the standalone apk and adjust the volume till its too loud.

[Q] Dr Dre, Klipsch, Bose Headsets?

Anyone tried Klipsch Image S4i, Bose - MIE2 mobile headset, or Beats By Dr. Dre - Monster Solo High-Definition Over-the-Ear Headphones with ControlTalk? (I got the titles off Best Buy). I hear a lot of the more expensive headsets have trouble with phones that are not apple brand. Anyone own any of these and use it with the vibrant? I am running latest axura rom with voodoo enabled, if that matters.
Can anyone skim through the best buy online store and tell me what are the some of the best headphones they carry (preferably with mic but without mic is fine too)? thanks

Best earbuds imo:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001NABXXE/ref=twister_dp_update?ie=UTF8&psc=1
They are on a severe discount now too. As for where it's coming from, I'm an audiophile and did my research on ear canals when I was looking for a pair for my Vibrant. The microphone also works perfect with the phone and can control music players just fine.
This set is a tad bass-heavy, just warning ya. It can handle ANY volume you throw at it too.

hmmm those look really good, I really want to get something from best buy though because I can get employee discount, if none of the best buy ones work maybe i'll get that

I own the Beats by Dre Solo HDs and use them with my Vibrant. The audio is perfect, but I haven't been able to get the Control Talk to work (although I haven't tested them yet with Nero). I definitely recommend them!

If you think the beat by dre are perfect you have alot to learn about audio all they are are heavy bass and crappy mids and highs, people only buy bose and dre **** just because media tells them too when theya re really some of the ****tiest things you can get
and vmoda is tits.

Klipsch s4i is the best out of all in the OP. Etymotic, shure, and ultimate ears also make good headsets in the same price range, not sure if BB carries any of them though. Beats and bose are all marketing, you'll find little in the way of actual sound quality.
Personally I am using ultimate ears triple fi 10s with my vibrant to listen to music, and they are very revealing-the vibrant is not a very good source in this regard. I highly prefer a dedicated DAP with a decent internal amp for optimum sound quality. These are probably out of your price range, though.

If you haven't heard the new MIE2 you shouldn't make a generalization about it. I hope those S4i's last longer than they have for others.

Some Bose are good but all of them way too overpriced for the quality.
Dr. Dre is marketing mostly though, don't get that if you're looking for actual sound quality. If you're looking for bling that looks nice in your ears, get them.

heygrl does the mie2's mic work with vibrant? anyone know if the s4i's mic works with vibrant?

I read some of the reviews and quite a few say they have poor build quality, is this true? one of the reviews said that the manufacturer wouldn't honor the warranty because it was purchased from an Amazon reseller.

anyone with the beats by dre, either solo or tours...do they come with a regular cord and then the one with the control talk? im thinking i can use my sony mw600 bluetooth with the beats without the control talk cord.
thanks.

The earphones that come with the vibrant aren't bad at all for freebies. I'd rather listen to these than the beats or the bose headphones. That said, I don't typically use my vibrant to listen to music with headphones, if listen with headphones i have a dac hooked upto my pc that goes to a hornet headphone amp and a pair of hd650 sen's.
Since I drive to work and don't take public transportation, I find that I rarely am in a position to consume media from my phone in that manner.
I do like the shure se series, you should look into them and see if they're right for you.

I have a pair of klipsch (forgot the model), the sound quality is great. Highs and lows are very clear.

Ah nice to see another headphone enthusiast on xda. Im also running a usb dac from my laptop to a hifiman ef2 to drive my denon d2000s. Been thinking about picking up some hd600s to compliment the denons.

quality headsets with microphone

I looking to buy a quality headsets with microphone that will be compatible with my Galaxy S2.
I am thinking to buy the Zagg smurtbuds.
Do you know if they will work with the Galaxy S2? will the sound be good? the microphone will work? the controller will work with the Galaxy S2 player?
If this headsets are not compatible with the Galaxy S2, do you know about other alternatives?
Thanks!

Could you please elaborate. I'm pretty new to this so I apologize.
How would this work? Through bluetooth? RF signal?
Haven't bought any of the brands above so am not sure.
Also what kind of adapter with remote do I need to buy? (Name?)
Any links if possible would be great for both.
Thanks in advance!

Get a SonyEricsson MW600 bluetooth adaptor and plug any headphone you want in. It has Play, Pause, Back, Forward, Volume buttons and microphone. Problem solved.

Thanks for the quick response - will check them out. Which earphone would you say is the best on audio quality for listening to music (as well as using it for handsfree)?

The problem with Bluetooth remote's is that the audio stream get's compressed, so that kinda defeats the purpose of getting high end ear/headphones. As technology stands today, wired is the only way to go for achieving the best sound quality.
I suppose the real question is this:
For ear/headphone microphone sets that we know work with the SGS2 (such as the one that came in the box) which have four connectors, I suppose the next thing to try is to see whether or not ear/headphones designed for iPhones will work correctly. If iPhone designed headphones work properly (including all controls etc.) then this makes finding a decent pair of working earphones a HELL of a lot easier.

I think that the headsets that comes with the device are quality, dont you think so ?

yesterday i bought the "Bose MIE2" and they are just great.
link for the international site
there are not many controls. just one button that lets you pick up/hang up calls and play/pause/skip music. thats more than enough for me.
the sound is so great but the best thing is the design of the speakers itself.
there is something called "Stay here" attached to them, which makes it almost impossible for them to drop out of your ear.
this works so well that i am even considering to use them for sports too...
unfortunately they cost about 130€ which is a lot. but for me the quality makes it worth it!

So far i'm enjoying the phonak pfe122 on my S2. Sound level seems to have improved possibly due to better isolation and clarity is second to none
I haven't had the opportunity to try out as many earbuds as this guy but his opinion in iem/earbuds is very similar to mine
http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showpost.php?p=128853&postcount=1

I've bought A-Jays Four and for the price range they just sound amazing. As for inline remote, only middle button works, but thats enough in my case.

good quality but you have to keep pressing button to skip song,you can also answer calls but you can hear the phone ringing even with the phones in which defeats the purpose for me,back to the drawing board lol

The MIE2I's are excellent imho, but like most others the volume buttons don't work with the SGS2.
Headset button controller app is workable and for me worth the hassle to use these headphones.
Mic works well. No one has complained about the quality when I call them.
Totally agree with nimroth. Very few earphones will stay in my weird ears, but these are perfect.

i meant a wired adapter not a bluetooth one, bluetooth is not reccomended for high end headphones especially because flac and uncompressed formats are of a way to high bitrate to stream correctly
if i meant bluetooth i would've said so , i haven't tested any with my sgs as i dont have access to any atm but what i would do is find the cheapest possible headphones with remotes that work maybe even old htc ones or something laying around, then cut off the headphones above the mic/remote section and attach a 3.5mm jack so i can use my Q-jays
least that is my plan.
the loss of quality from the extension will be negligible and either way the sound out of any phone cannot compete with high end audio device anyway, so if you really care about audio quality start carrying a Cowon player.

just for you in case you didnt know: there are two different models:
- the "mie2" only have the mike and ONE button for pause/play/skip/accept or end call (those are the ones i have)
- the "mie2i" are the ones for the iphone and have more buttons (like volume and stuff)
just like MarkyH said the mike-quality is really good (maybe because it is quite next to your mouth), but the volume controls wont work with the sgs2 and most other phones because of a different framework.
i decided to buy the mie2 because i dont mind the missing volume controls or the "one track back" button...

Thank you Nimroth and Also thanks to MarkyH..
Good to know that the headset mie2i works well i.e compatible with SGS2 except for the volume controller.
I've already one and I going to get SGS2 soon.

does the fm radio still work with the mie2i?

best Bluetooth headphones

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

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

Wired Headset Recommendation

Well I have given up on wireless headsets and am looking for a quality wired headset for my HTC One.
I make quite a few calls and occasionally listen to music.
I am tossing up between a more mp3 audio headset such as the Klipsch Image S4 and the more call orientated Plantronics MX500.
Can anyone recommend a good quality headset with inbuilt microphone?

My gut says similar. The wireless headsets I have used are Plantronics Legend so have some exposure.
I listen to music probably 5-10% of the time though so the ability to play music is secondary.
My impression is that the wired call centre headsets have not been updated in a long time and are outdated.

My experiences with the legend were less than pleasant.
I was getting the problem of chronic interference when talking on a cell phone but reasonably clear talking on skype. I could never get to the bottom of it. I am using the headset that came with the phone but looking for something that is a step up in quality.

Anyone got an additional take on this or should I consider giving bluetooth another try?

Look at JLabs
http://www.jlabaudio.com
Usually they have sales and anything with an "m" after the name (example: J4m, J.Fi.m) are "mobile phone" headsets that have the mic and button integrated into the right cable. Right now I am using a J4m (that I got for 5 bucks in a grab bag), it is incredibly rugged.
Have been using Jlabs earbuds for years and they are some of the best sound (until you get into the 100-200 dollar range) I have heard out of an earbud. Also just bought the crasher bluetooth speakers.
