Default Help Pls Req:-Cheap htc one S in ear (buds) headphones with mic and working remote ?

Hi Alllll , just got my new htc one S a few days ago , great phone , very happy etc , but the headphones that come with the phone would be great if they where ear bud / in ear type......ideally i would like a decent quality pair for around £5.00 - £10.00 with mic and remote suitable for working with my new phone

I have tried my old samsung galaxy 1 headphones , but alas the sound echo's , the mic works and the remote....

Any reccomendations welcomed but please ideally tried and tested

I take it your in the UK? If so for the price range your looking at your not going to get the sound quality you want or deserve for music.
Have a look in Argos for code 514/6062 (KitSound KS1 Colours In Ear Headphones With Mic - Black) for £15. My choice for your price range would be a trip to eBay for a set of HTC ear phones with Mic.

As I posted, its down to your price range. Even if you where to get around £30-40 you would get a decent set with the functions that you require. A friend has a set but is away on holidays at the moment, when he returns I'll get some info on them for you and post it.


EDIT: 903/6013 Philips O'Neill The Specked In-Ear Headphones - Green/Black.

At £10.00 your choices will be pretty limited. I suggest using an app like JAYS Headset Control with a single button set instead of one with a more functional remote.

I settled on a pair of Brainwavz M4 with mic for under £20. There's also the ebay Skullcandy store that has mic'd sets starting at under £7. But I suspect my choices and prices are a little better here in the US.

Have to bump this thread, also need something fairly cheap that has decent remote. Not really audiophile, just need my headphones occasionally for in-car use, so no point in spending £50. So £20 is probably my max. Any suggestions appreciated.

These are "fake" (I believe) HTC headphones. The same ones that came with older HTC phones (the One S I have did not come with any headphones at all!)

Edit: Don't flame me, I suggested these because he wanted cheap ones, and these are identical to the ones HTC used to supply.

Haha nothing wrong if you're buying cheap goods. I wouldn't buy any of their more expensive stuff though.

Hi guys, I'd also like to ask for some advice on a decent headphone set with a remote that actually has more than 1 button and works on the One S. I live in Germany though, so it should preferably be something that's available here or at least deliverable and cheap to import. I'd like to set the price limit to 20€, but if you really mean nothing with a decent quality can be found for that little, I might consider going up to 30€. Thanks a lot!
