Default headsets with controls - recommendation please ?

Hi guys,

I'm looking for some good quality headsets + controls (including microphone) for my Galaxy Nexus in order to replace the stock headsets.

Can you guys recommend some brands/models please ?

Thanks

I'm using one from skullcandy.. everything is good, I can pause/stop/move next[previous] song but the only thing doesn't work is the volume button.
The GN seem does not recognize +/- button. But I can still use volume rocker on the phone.

Got those too, quality is good, sound as well and controls work fine.

The flat cables seem to pull the earbuds out more easily for me though...

I'm curious to see what people recommend here, too. I just bought the B&W C5, and they don't work (even though they sound and feel great)

Also saw the Bose MIE2 (Android compatible) but couldn't find any info like above on the Bose website ... must be top secret

So I did not know what to choose so I've decided to choose based on the specification .
I've highlited in red what I thought is important and to me it looks like the Klipsch are the best .

Am I right ? Is this a good method to choose ?

Can't go wrong with the s4a I have the s4i, they lasted me 2 years so far. Plus they are really comfortable
