The best in-ear headphones with remote control

CitizenLee · Dec 21, 2012

Sorry to grave dig this thread, but just quick post to let you know Nocs have updated their range and the NS400 now come in an Android variant, the NS400U-001:

The reviews on the original NS400 were nothing short of excellent (esp for the price) so I've just ordered a set myself.

If anyone is interested I will report back once they arrive and I've burned them in

Where did you get these from? B&H says they're discontinued, and Amazon only has one pair from some random seller, and they're used. Why must it be so hard to find decent headphones with full music control for Android devices?

I use Beats Tour w/ Control Talk and are awesome. Some problem with Jelly Bean and the control talk shortcut but I've solved it, I've remapped the headset button as "next song" button and used it with Headset Button app.

I use Klipsch S4 II with in-line remote and their app which works about as well as the other remote remap apps do.

I have an issue with them falling out after a while and so I've ordered these these: http://www.averysound.com/as.klipsch.html which I already use with my Jawbone ERA and it is great. I wouldn't use the sealed-off ear buds while running on the road as you won't hear surrounding noises.

Sony MH1C rules! rew ff stop play vol + and - and excelent sound quality.

I've bought Sony Ericsson MH1-BL's and i cant get them to work with my hox, the sound is terrible unless i press and hold in the button between the volume keys and then the sound is really good. Also neither the volume or return buttons work at all. i searched on here to see what the problem could be, whether it was down to the hox or me not using the correct settings etc because the description said that the Sony Ericsson MH1-BL was developed for android, maybe not eh?

I don't understand why a three button, pause/play volume up/down headphone is so scarce for Android and so plentiful for iPhone, and that this hasn't been standardized as part of a hardware spec for Android. This sort of thing doesn't help the consumer or the OS.

Bose Mie2 does the job well, pick them up for around £130

I recommend the SoundMAGIC E10. Excellent headphone for the price!

Dear Friends, i read 2-3 the forum topics about headphones. and still didnt find an answer. Here it goes, im looking for a headphones(really?), controls applied. Now i made my self a list of interesting earphones:

1, Sony 1264-5582 MW600 Hi-Fi Wireless Headset with FM Radio - Retail Packaging
2. NOCS NS200H-001 NS200 3.5mm Earphone
3. Klipsch S4a
3. Klipsch Image S4i Premium
4. LG Tone Wireless Bluetooth Stereo Headset
5. Sony 1262-3330 Smart Headset with SmartKey Control Wired
6. JayBird JF3
6. beats tour (in the list in sake of completeness)
Now i will be using them for jazz, classical, and some rock/blues music. Overall quality, sound quality/ear fitting/noise cancellation/answering the call is main objective. I want to spend maximum 70$ including shipping in the US. In a case of bluetooth device charging adapter is the main concern, as i dont want to use xy charging adapters. i cant make a choice between these 7 items.

Any advice is highly appreciated!
Please help!

Thank you!!

Well, I have a question regarding this...

I have actually bought the a-Jays one+, but they are completely useless as far as "remote controlling" goes on Android 4.1...

NOT happy to find that out after installing the Jays app!

If ANYONE has any advice on what headphones that sound ok, AND will let me control volume and take calls, I will be VERY grateful!!

I mean, seriously, this was something my old Nokia headsets could do, but its not possible on an Android device in 2013!?

Great tip. I tried googling it earlier, but found no info on whether or not it would work in Android 4.1. The Jays headphone app did not. But if you can confirm that they work with Headset Controller App in android 4.1, then I'll go get my jays back from my gf

Bose mie2i awesome quality, amazingly comfortable, bass is lacking a bit
Shure SE 215's amazing quality, sound comes out brilliantly, about 30 quid cheaper than the cheapest bose but no volume control and call taking
The old HTC headsets had suprisingly good sound quality for stock headsets and could take calls and control music

Ever since I updated to 4.1 (official), the JAYS remote control app doesn't work anymore; long press launches Google Now and double tap calls the last called person

.
Anyways, I use Sennheiser MM30i and they are wonderful apart from ^^ (since 4.1)

The Google Now and last number redial issues are both known. Google Now can't be fixed, I believe the last number redial can be solved using Headset Button Controller from the Play Store.
