Question Headphone with Mic?

I get a far too much static feed back when I try to use my stock headphones that came with my x10 when I use them with my Ion. Does anyone have a suggestion for a different set?
I like to use them when I drive and need to make phone calls

Hmm I've used ones from my Dell Streak, Xperia S and now using the Smart Wireless Headset Pro and haven't had static issues with any of them.

Current Phones/Tablets:
Lumia 920 // Xperia Z // Xperia TL // Xperia ion // Xperia P // iPad 3
Accessories
Sony Smartwatch // Sony Smart Wireless Headset pro // Sony LiveDock™ // Xperia ion Smartdock
Past Phones/Tablets:
iPhone 1st Gen/3GS/4S // Nexus One // Dell Streak // Atrix 4g // Xperia Play // Lumia 900 // Xperia S // iPad 1

Click here for my Xperia firmware downloads.
Use the Thanks button if I helped.

lol I had this same problem as well. basically, the ion's audio jack is a newer format(used in iphone's), meaning the mic/earphone that came with the x10 are not supported since they used an older version.

Makes sense. I ended up getting a pair of skullcandy ear buds with a mic. they seem to work pretty well

Same jack like in iPhone, but does not support white iphone headphones with volume control :/

I don't know about this being a new format jack ..... the three ring 1/8" jack has been around for a long time. Left, right and Mic contacts, its pretty standard.

I thing the ones that came with my ion are really great. the only thing i would want is the ability to use voice controls on the mic. But pause music, last song and next song work fine.
