Skullcandy earphones

---

I'm planning to buy new earphones [not headphones], from some store in mumbai, or via flipkart...so want some recommendations...

Things I'm looking for:

• microphone inbuilt, so i can use them for calls (like the stock one)
• better sound quality, compared to stock
• medium/good length of cord (not too short, so that i can keep the phone in my jeans pocket, and still listen to music comfortably)
• good enough build quality, something that can handle day-to-day use (i mean, they shouldnt be too delicate)

i would prefer skullcandy, but people lately have been complimenting senheiser also, so i'm confused...

i can just google for these features, but here's where my problem starts...
i have an apple ipod 3rd gen...and this one doesnt have any buttons on the ipod for music and volume control, the controls are present on the earphones!!
tried searching at a lot of places, but cant find any decent earphones which would work on both my devices...
even searched for "adapters", but most of them dont work with skullcandy earphones, or arent available in india atm (cant import)...

anyhelp with either the earphones, or the ipod adapter, or both, would be appreciated...

budget for earphones = 700-1300 INR (1$=55INR, atm)

I use Sennheiser earphones and am extremely satisfied with them..

The only thing they did lack was the mic thing you mentioned..

Its also worth mentioning that their customer service and all is outstanding.

Thats my opinion of sennheiser , from what i've heard Skullkandy is still the leader in this field, but you seriously should consider sennheiser.

Also if you're looking for bass, give Beats a try..

For the volume control thing try-
Mx- 580..

For how much did you buy mx 580 for? With all accessories?
You got warranty for how long?

Uh, I have the mx 170 that cost INR 500 not the mx 580 which you can get for INR 1500-1800..
Warranty is for two years.

ITS been 2 weeks now since i got my skullCandy SMOIKIN' BUDS ..... they made a 1400rs hole in my pocket....but the earphones are worth the price.... i would rate it 5stars
awesome bass capability
smooth fitting
way too better than stock.....(guess wat u wont use dsp or any mod for better sound...its natural wid them.....but using dsp gives more life to them ...i use dsp at minimum )
the wire is long...
flat wire so no tangling

close your eyes and get them

Can you give me their model/make number?

I bought des..

I would prefer skullcandy as most of them love listening with it..

I was using senhieser earphones. I got the ibeats earphones, meant for the iphone and they are absolutely brilliant.
