Ok so my cell among numerous other things crapped out on the weekend so I broke down and got an iPhone 3Gs, Im not fond of the headphones that come with it and was wondering if anyone had recommendations on a set of in-ear silicone type headphones with the remote & mic on it that are good, other than the other apple ones. I don't need top drawer ones but I want descent sound quality ones as well.
Unfortunately, in the world of audio, that's a paradox. You can't have a set that's great for audio AND great for communications.
I have a bluetooth that I use for talking on (Jawbone), and then I have these for music. When I feel my phone vibrating for an incoming call, I just pop out my right earbud and switch to my bluetooh... It's a bit of a pain, but the sound is definitely worth it!
ETA:
They DO have a set that is built for mobile and music use! Brand new I guess. I would recommend trying out both and seeing for yourself which sounds better.
I did find a wack of them on the apple site that have the volume and mic on them but range anywhere from $50 to I think about $250 :S
for the headset anyway I dont care much ATM about communications, more so want them for music. I dont mind being tethered for that as thats one less thing drawing power as Im sure the bluetooth sucks up battery life much faster than normal like wi-fi does.
Take a look through the listings here. If you want absolutely great sound, try these. These are a little more budget-conscious, a little less accurate with a little heavier bass line. They are also more compact. Both are highly recommended.
ETA, you can get both for less than at the site I linked to... but that site does a great job with reviewing them. I bought mine from Amazon. I have the ER-4Ps and my son has the ER-6is. He uses his with the iPod Touch, and loves them.
I've got a pair of Sennheiser bluetooth that looks like that Rocketfish set that Jaime linked to. They are great, work with my iTouch and my blackberry, AND my netbook.
well the headphones might have to go on the backburner, my daily driver had a nervous breakdown and fear the puter crapped out in it, soooooo not looking forward to this bill :(
Just finished spending $800 on a new exhaust in my Camaro as the old mufflers were damaged after bottoming out and was leaking CO in to the cab. :( and then with the $600 for the new cell... craaaaaap!!
