I'm assuming you're talking about the headphones? I've been using some cheap Skull Candy HPs for the longest time with no issues. I got the phone used so all I got was a charger. Haha. Can't say I've ever heard of the problem you're having though.

Bose is over priced, skull candy is worth only if u live in us. But IMO their sound quality isn't very remarkable, skull candy is notorious for its bass which sounds terrible.
If u are looking for Sth cheap while neutral sounding, u could go for the westones um2 series. Or St cheaper... the ultimatears200. Or if u dont wana pay convince some one to pas u their Sony ericsons in ears, they are pretty decent hahas. For ear buds, apple ones are decent.

I've been using MEElectronics m6p and I think they're great. Search around for the best price. I got a great price off eBay. A while back.

The TF10 sounds awesome, but has serious fit issues for a lot of people, myself included.
bluetooth headset all the way, have never plugged a wire in other than for power.
try JLab earphones! paid 30 pounds for it on ebay as they are not being sold in my country. Really amazing sound quality, works perfectly, long lasting (now lasting already for 0.75 year which is long for me).
I have these
List for Samsung galaxy headset and headphones that work all three buttons & mic
- urbeats
- htc beats solo
- Sony smart headset
- Nocs NS200H-001
Update as I found some more
Try beyer dynamic! Best sound. 10 times beter than beatsaudio.

Headphones
Hey friends,
I read all your replies for this post. It seems like all are telling about headphones without mic.
Unfortunately my original headphone which I got with Nexus S is not working properly.
So please suggest me from where can I get the original samsung headphones or is there any adapter with mic with which I can connect to any other headset. Presently I am staying in UAE.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Vinu

Sennheiser is a litter expensive, but the quality is very good
Add pretty much all the Samsung "audio" Bluetooth headsets.
I found an HM6450 for $29.99 at an office supply store. Sounds fine to my (middle-aged) ears.
Sty I'm going to spend a gold chin on a pair of headphones.
My first though was to get sennheiser HD 650 but I read around and it seems they need an amplifier to be able to make good sound. I then looked at b&w p5 but there are so many mixed reviews of it.
Any recommendations on "audiophile" headphones in the same price range as the two mentioned above?

Klipsch S4a, i have the S2 and they are amazing headphones. The S4a is built for android, it has a button on the cable along with an app so you can control the button to do what you like. Ive had my pair for 2.5 years and going strong.

What are you looking for in headphones? Do you want them to be mellow like the hd650? Or do you want something even more bassy? Something that puts emphasis on the treble? Neutrality? Emphasis on both bass and treble? Would you rather them be open like the hd650 or closed?
Anyways, one suggestion I can put up is the he400, but if you can find out what you are looking for, I can give you other suggestions... The he400's performance can be improved with an amp and dac, but it still can sound good without these.

I want the sound to be as close as possible to the original sound (the way the studio equalized the songs to be).
I'll take a look at the he400 and hopefully can test them in a store.

They come with 3 sets of ear tips to fit any ear. BTW
Just check out the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 it's available in multiple colors. I like the White-on-White combination if you have a white Note 2.
The good: The Audio-Technica ATH-M50 Professional Studio Monitor Headphones offer excellent build quality and very detailed, balanced sound with tight bass. They're also very comfortable and are a relative bargain.
The bad: There's no integrated microphone for making cell phone calls; the bulkier design makes them less suitable for mobile use; and the headphone cord isn't detachable.
The bottom line: The Audio-Technica ATH-M50 Professional Studio Monitor Headphones are among the best available for less than $200, offering excellent sound and build quality.

Hmm, well there's the K701/702/Q701 family with their analytical sound signature or the DT880. But, since you don't want to get an amp, it's going to be tough to find something in that price range. The he400 seems like your best bet, however it's more of a fun sounding headphone.
Perhaps, the MS2 or ad900? If you still want to go with sennheisers, you may want to get the hd600 instead, the hd650 have been tuned to have more emphasis in the lower frequencies and are less neutral.
You could also very well think the headphones you chose will sound fine without an amp...
Well I have a pair of detox beats that I love maby not what your lookibg for but I love mine

the OP has the same issue as me. In ears just dont work! I wish they made some on ear or around the ear ones with android functionality.
I know what audiophiles say about bose (Buy Other Sound Equipment) but I have had very good luck with my bose ie2 earphones. They are in ear non noise canceling ear buds, but unlike most ear buds, they actually stay in your ears and are extremely comfortable. Definitely worth a look.

If you want the open pure sennheiser sound get the HD 558s. The note 2 drives them no problem. Sound is a little more pure than the ath-m50s.
Hmm wonder if it's worth it to get a portable headphone amplifier. And if so what one?

I personally do not think its worth it unless you are really serious about listening to music on your phone. I just take what my phone gives me and save the actual listening for when I'm connected into my setup. The Note 2 does the job with my Sennheiser 558s. I wouldn't want to add extra bulk and things to carry around for better audio out of my phone while walking around.

When I plug my beats headphones in (the ones coming with the One), it doesn't seem like they're plugged in correctly. Like if I twist or turn the headphones jack a bit, I get a crackling/distorted sound, but the headphones are plugged in as far as they can go. I even tried applying some force but they're as far in as they can go.
Sound faulty to me mate, do they work fine in any other device like an mp3 player or another phone? Worth checking ... to see if it's the phones or the phone lol

Tried them in another phone and it seems it's the same. The headphones don't seem to wanna plug in correctly. I tried a few other headsets on the One and they all connect as they should?
Why can't phone makers make completely flat jacks?
Lol who knows mate. My biggest gripe with the headphone jack on the one is that it's at the top. It should be at the bottom, that way when I take my phone out of my pocket, the screen is the right way up and facing me instead of it being the opposite.

I think you could probably change them at you're local dealer. It sounds like they won't do it in any case.
Also the headphone are not beats. You mean the in-ear headphones?

I'd bet money on the earphones being Beats, just unbranded ones ... I have used mine and compared to some Sony ones, which I paid about 70 squid for, they sound every bit as good, if not better ... Fact is, Beats or not, they sound very good and are by far, the best earphones I've ever received with a phone, or mp3 player for that matter.

The jack isn't the issue, because other headphones work well. It seems to be the headphone pin. The thing you insert into the jack.

The iPhone 5 was my previous phone after my Xperia Ray so when I traded up to my One (the mere suggestion of anything bettering an iPhone would have fanboys abusing me about now) I decided to keep the Apple Pods as they call them lol but tbh they are nothing special, certainly not as good as the ones with the One, my opinion of course but I do consider myself somewhat of an Audiophile. :laugh:

But the new "earpods" are slightly better than the old ones until the iphone 4s. But I'm not an audiophile like you. I would use those in ear headphones only for sports or somewhat. At home I'm using an over ear headphone from akg because they are much more comfortable and sounds better for me.

While the headphones aren't bad they probably aren't beats. they are built very cheaply and are not anywhere as bass heavy as beats would be. Mine died about a week after using them with computer.
Hi there. Since I am not happy with the bundled headphones (the main problem is the volume, it is far from enough), I decided to buy better ones.
What do you recommend?

No such thing as best. It depends on the music you listen. Different head/ear phones for different genres.

Right. I listen mainly pop/rock. Since the bundled is simply not loud enough, I would need something much louder.

Well many people complain about the loudness of the XZ, try flashing ZeroFinity's soundmod. And for the ear phones I would suggest you to take a look @ headfi.org. There is no other place where you can get recommendations to what device you should buy. I also got mine after read that forum.

I just tried the XZ with a Skullcandy 50/50 and that one is way louder. Also, tested the Sony earbuds with the laptop and it is bad with it either, so it is deffinitely the earpods. I will check on headfi as well, thanks for the advice.
I'm using Shure SE215 in-ears. Would recommend them any day!
Amazing bass and nice hights when you use an EQ to finetune them a little. Also the cable is completely detachable / replaceable.
The customer support is amazing too, my old SE115 started to fail after 2,5 years of excessive use, still I got a 50% rebate when I send them in in exchange for the SE215.

Hey there,
I'm looking at getting a bluetooth speaker to take with me while I am running. I'm looking for something that:
-Is somewhat waterproof
-Somewhat light (less than a pound would be nice)
-Loud enough for multiple people to hear it
-Under $100
Do you guys know of anything? I was thinking about going with the Voombox Ongo.
I've got a JBL Charge 2. Can very much recommend it.
But I think it's a bit too big and heavy for what you intend to use it for.

Sorry, it cut off the rest of the message somehow. :silly:
What the rest of the message said was that it's going to be hard to find one with those specs. Most under $99 sound distorted at a volume loud enough for multiple people in a room to hear. They can't handle the middle and low tones very well.
I think there are some cheap handsized speakers for around 40 quid with relative waterresistance, but those sound worse than your phone's own speakers.
Anything under 30 quid either needs a 3.5mm cable or sounds worse than a phone in a Pringles can.
I think the Voombox Ongo is indeed your best bet. It has a surprisingly decent sound for something so small.
