Looking into buying a stereo bluetooth headset for my wing, but not sure what's really out there, or which ones are better. Any suggestions would be appreciated
I did a little bit of research on this topic and recommended HT820 for my brother in law. He bought them on ebay for under $30 brand new. Good reviews (bulkiness was one of the biggest concerns which is find with me) and fit the budget! I will let you know once he get's them. Good luck.
I was thinking of going with the 820, but didn't know if there is much difference between either of them, or if there was something better out in the market.
I got the Plantronics 855, and I love it. Works very well, and has great sound quality. A little pricey at $129 USD, but worth it.
I have the moto S9.. I love it. best price is from Amazon I think.
I even choose stereo a2dp over an iPhone.

Damn, and to think I got the motorola s9s when they first came out at around $99. But you know what ... I still have them, they're good, and it's something I'd definitely recommend getting, (especially for $44.99). So go get 'em for pete's sake and terminate this thread, LOL.
s9's have problems Ive tried 3 headsets and the Insignia ns-bthdp seam to be the best, they pair up soooo easy, they fit on the ear not in the ear,don't have to worry about sweat messing them up,they are super LOUD and clear,you can lay in a chair and listen to music ,and the kicker........you can hear calls and watch movies or videos you downloaded in stereo just my 2 cents.
I love my S9's.
I also have the Motorola S9 and i love the inear plugs. Better than all normal headphones. It is small, light and connects without any problems!
BTW - i only payed 34€
Been hearing that audio over bluetooth sounds better and have been wanting to NOT worry about dropping my Lumia every time I fish it out of my pocket to change a song. So, I've been searching the web over for a great deal on the BH-111.
Found it on Expansys-usa and it the black version just became available for $30.00 USD, while another black is 34.99 and the new colors ar 44.99. Of course, I went for the least expensive since I didn't actually need them. Shipping soon. Will report back on quality.

Audio over Bluetooth should sound worse, as it's compressed, but whether it will be noticeable to everyone, I don't know (I have an A2DP headset and it sounds OK to me).
Interested to hear more about them. Look great.
They just arrived. I've never used earbuds that fit into the canal. Wierd, like wearing earplugs. Sound is good. Better than my Sennheiser MX95. Probably because of the in-ear fit. Down the line, I'll invest in nicer ear phones. In the meantime, these are quite decent.
Sound, to my ears, is the exact same... wired or via bluetooth.
Oh... a few days ago one of the foam pads fell off on my Sennheiser. So, I removed the other until I could get replacements. The sound was horrendous. I understood the complaints people had. It was so horrid that I used local scout to find and call a few Radio Shacks that were still open and then got driving directions. Yeah, I LOVE local scout.
edit: I just purchased the Sennheiser OCX 880 for $34.99 (down from $60, down from $100+) to replace both sets that I currently have. Will see if I can make a few bucks on my MX 95 via online auction.
Update - after an ear irrigation today, I can definitely tell the difference between the BH-111 earbuds and the Sennheiser MX95. The Nokia earbuds aren't so great. Still loving the bluetooth though.
Just got a set of them, granted the price $159 was a little steep. I just didn't want wires, and working out with the Note 3 its a little tough. I was looking on amazon and best buy, but needed to go to target for some house stuff and walked by and saw them for 159 instead of 199 everywhere else. I guess its a 3 day sale according to the clerk that rang me up. The website says 199, but they are on sale in the store. Ill take a pic of the receipt later today...
Sound amazing and have a mic too. Full phone capabilities too. Best part wireless...
Beats Audio - for those more concerned with image than quality.
Bad choice. Sorry to sound harsh but, basically, you have paid a 40% premium for a brand name, and not a particularly good one at that. You could have gotten a far better wireless solution for less money, and they would have had a frequency response that didn't involve the mid and upper ranges being overpowered and ruined by ludicrous levels of bass like all Beats Audio headphones and buds. Just one example are JBL J46BTs which you could have gotten for near half the price. There are others.
Yeah they are over priced but so are many things we buy. How do you like them? I bought some wireless Jaybirds Bluebuds X locally for $55 and i love them but i like the design of the Beats better.

Yea, I like them they sound great. Granted the price is higher than most they are the only ones that fit my ears correctly and comfortably. I hate having earphones fall out when i am running or zipping while mountain biking. Sure Beats is expensive, they sound good, feel great.
I tried theses - JBL Synchros Reflect BT In-Ear Bluetooth Headphones with Mic - Black (JBLREFLECTBTBLK) they are $100 dollars, they would pull out because they don't wrap around the ears. I also tried I tried Bose's SIE2i headphones, but the volume was far too low. They are great headphones but wanted something wireless.
Comfort - I wore these for 4 hours straight doing yardwork today. My ears didn't ache or felt uncomfortable.
Bluetooth - connects instantly, long range is great approx 30-45 feet outside, and have not experienced any skips or connection interruptions yet.
Mic - Great for calls can hear the other party on the line, and they can hear me great.
Price - $159, But in my opinion, they're worth it.
Its like anything, as a Mechanic I buy SNAP-ON, why because they are top tier when it comes to tools. Smooth and allow the ratchets to move in a few degrees to get what you need done. We all buy Brands that we like. Whether its clothing or what not. 200 dollars is steep, but 159 I needed to try them to make sure they fit and got the Job Done.
take care of them they brake way too fast agree with the other guys you could got a better deal you could bought some lg tone which last you 10h+ straight for a cheaper price also
Comparing Snap-On tools to Beats is disingenuous. Snap-On are worth the premium you're expected to pay, Beats are not.
Looking online here in the UK at least, the Beats retail for around £160 and the JBLs for around £70. You also have the Jabra Rox which can be picked up for around £90. Both of which have better sound quality than the Beats offering.

Not sure how the beats sound but I just got a pair of jaybird freedoms for $30. They sound great. I've tried a few bluetooth headsets and they are the best I've used. The only issue I have is I have to put a tie in the cord that connects the earpieces otherwise it hangs on my neck and sticks while I jog. Other then that they are great especially at $30.
My beats2 wireless earphones won't pair with galaxy alpha HELP
I got these for $14 on Amazon lightning, but they are worth $25. The first pair went back under warranty repair.
Overall, they are great. Battery life is awesome, and they are, in fact, waterproof! ( The second pair I got I inadvertently left outside in the rain for 24 hours once and they still work fine)

jbl with note 3
Hi guys,i i have my new bluetooth speaker jbl 3 and i have a problem when i connect it with my note 3.when i play music from my library,everything is ok.if i turn on the wi fi (to play music by live radios or you tube)it disconnect!after 1-2 minutes connects again for a while and after that disconnect again.has anybody problem like this with his note?
Just got me a pair of the PowerBeats 2 wireless at Best Buy for $99. Not sure how long the sale is going to be. I don't understand why people give it so much flak. The market is there to give choices to the customer. Animosity towards those that purchase Beats is like someone being upset someone bought Nike Jordans or UA Currys for basketball shoes over another more affordable brand.
I have the Bluebuds X that I purchased last year and Bluebuds X2 that I purchased when they came out. For what they are marketed for, they are by far the best. The market isn't for audiophiles. It's for people that need them for an active lifestyle. I can't speak for everyone else but they work great for the upbeat music I listen to when I work out.
The fit when compared to my Bluebuds X & X2 is much better. I can wear them without them falling out during a sweaty cardio session and they don't irritate my ears like the wings on the Bluebuds do.
Sound quality wise I think everything in the $100 - 200 price range for the most part sound the same in regards to bluetooth headsets (please read https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/bluetooth-basics to understand the limitations of bluetooth headphone technologies). The differences are subtle enough that if you aren't actively trying to critique them, it sounds the same. Also keep in mind the source file quality. Let's just be honest, many people utilize one or another type of streaming service. The free ones are typically music compressed down to anywhere between 64-128 kbps for free streaming, and caps out at 320 kbps for paid services. I highly doubt anyone has a lossless 1411 kbps audio collection on their phone/ipod/etc. Unless you have a lossless audio collection, the differences in sound quality for BT headphones in this price range are for the most part negligible. What's noticeable are the preconfigured EQ settings of the headset. (I.E beats products tend to be a "U" with a focus on bass and treble, Bluebuds for the most part are flat with slightly more emphasis on mids).
For specific comparison, the Bluebuds when comparing to the Powerbeats 2, the Beats have much clearer bass response, mids and highs are comparable. Overall, I prefer the listening experience with the Powerbeats because with my Bluebuds there are times when the music sounds artificially filtered.
Bluebuds have a much better sound isolation, whereas the Powerbeats are designed to allow some ambient noise so that if you have them in while running/gym/exercising you'll still be aware of your environment.
Just my two cents.
I used to have some old Skullcandy earbuds that I bought discounted in early 2012. Since then they have went out so I had to replace them and got ink'd 2 off Ebay. The pack I got did not come in the original packaging, so I'm not sure if they were fakes, but at any rate they were total junk and one earpiece was not working.
Do you have any recommended earbuds that work well and are priced around $20-25 max ? I use earbuds (corded), no muffs or cordless. Typically they get used pretty heavily at the gym so there's sweat, dropping, etc, etc...hence I don't want to spend too much on earbuds that will get roughed up.
I had some dual driver Xiaomi I bought, they are OK, but nothing too wild. The reviews were good so I was expecting something better, but they were not as good as my old Skullcandy ones.
Bluetooth earbuds are now in the $15-20 range. I personally got a taotronics pair from amazon that are no longer available apparently for $15. The sound is fine. The problem of course is that the battery is about 6 hours of sound and when you are done, you have to make sure you turn them off to save battery. But still, go for them. Not having a cord wrapped around your body is nice.

I'm still partial to Skull Candy's 2XL brand...I picked up a set of Spokes I believe they were called (the ones without a mic) for like $7- $11. Pair them with Viper4android and they're surprisingly good....they can handle more than my Sennheiser set it spent over $80 for.

Great information. Thanks for the heads up !

KZ ATEs or Piston 3s
Got some SoundPeats from Amazon or $30! They since went down a LOT! You can get em for like, $16 or so. I got the SoundPeats QY9 but some claimed the QY8 had deeper bass. Not sure, but i love em! Bluetooth headphones.
The Sony Extra Bass sound pretty good, especially with V4A and Dolby Atmos. Also durable and comfortable. I've seen them on Amazon for $25-30.

Personally I use Aukee bluetooth earbuds and I love these! I got them at Amazon for about $25 or so. Really good sound. AUKEY EP-B24 Bluetooth Headphones. Android guys did a review on them but I think they understated them. If you use a music player with good EQ they rock. I like doubletwist for that.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I haven't been able to check out these yet as its been a busy time for me but I have lots of recommendations to look into. Thanks for everyone's input!

Well they actually just quit working on me this week. The battery no longer charges so they only work plugged in making them pointless. So, guess my reccomendation was premature.

Klipsch S4 for wired. I really like my Bluetooth Power Beats 2 (sweat and water resistant) with a little bass reduction.
For $25-$30 a set of AKG Y20U earbuds are hard to beat, hands down.
They tested really well against many other earbuds according to The Wirecutter.

I like mine, which live in a zip lock bag at the bottom of a soft briefcase. They roll out and work everytime, no problem. They're tough, crisp, deep, and CHEAP. They also have a built in mic and action button...

I didn't order the bluetooth earbuds. I tried the Ep c2 from aukey, and aukey was a very good advice. For 12 € on amazon together with arise soundmod I really do enjoy the sound of my Nexus for cheap money.
Thanks for the aukey advice :good:
I really recommand hammerhead by razor.
Would love TW Earbuds coming directly from Oneplus as those would have been VFM but I don't see anything coming from them. The wireless bullets they have released are not Truly wireless. So looking forward to suggestions for some budget truly wireless earbuds.
I just purchased the Jabra Active Elite 65t wireless earbuds for all around music and movie watching on my phone and tablet. Great for workouts too. Sound is excellent and battery life is decent as I get a little over 5 hours of continuous play before having to recharge them with the small case / charger it came with. The Sound plus app is also good as it adds more features to the earbuds. Give it a try. Enjoy.
I've been using the Jabra Elite Sport since last year. Initially with my OG Pixel. And now either the OP6t.
It's done what I needed a TW earbuds for workouts, running, listening to tunes while working and answering and making phone calls. The call quality has been superb on both ends
The ones i am using right now:
I am using the Insignia bluetooth headsets (NS-CAHBTEB01) that i picked up at BestBuy for about $30 and they are great in both sound and design. These are made of plastic mostly so they might be more inclined to break if mishandled but they work perfectly for me. Average life for music is about 10 hours apparently and have a comfortable neckstrap to keep things clean. It includes controls for music and incoming calls on the headsets as well so they truly provide the bluetooth experience that i was looking for.
+1 for the Jabra elite 65t. 5 hours for one session is considered excellent battery life for truly wireless buds. The case is good for another 3 charges or so and it only takes like an hour to recharge.
Use it mainly for workouts but also on the bus/train in NYC on occasion. As with any truly wireless earbuds, you will get some interference when you are around a ton of other people with tech. Doesn't happen often but walking around NYC it does tend to happen here and there.

Using apple airpods. Great that there’s no buttons. Turns on and connects once taken out of case. Double tap either pauses music or hangs up calls. Bluetooth audio tuner has an apple AirPod preset so they are tuned and sound good.
Down side no volume control on the buds.
Using TicPods Free, Lava color. Love them. Definitely recommend

Blue TicPods here - I love them. My wife has the white ones and she likes them too.
I have the Bose Soundsport free buds.
Another vote for the Jabra Elite 65t.
Out of all the wireless earbuds I've tried, it's the best battery life and sound quality. It also just works seamlessly when connecting to my phone.
Finally settled with the Samsung Galaxy Buds. Fits great without being too obvious like the Bose Soundsports. No problems with connection. Sounds nice. Completely satisfied till now.
Mifa X3 are what I've just bought. Inexpensive and great sound quality once I found some 'ear cushions' that fitted my ears better than the ones fitted on delivery. Of the sets supplied, one pair fitted well and gave good sound, but going through my selection of spare 'ear cushions' I found some that fitted even better and sounded even better too. Charged them up and had them running last night for almost 3 hours non stop. The touch controls are tricky to master, but other than that, no complaints. Sound just as good as my Denon (partially wired) Bluetooth ones that cost £170, and are more comfortable to wear. Bought from Amazon for only £26.
I too have the Jabra 65t buds. Beware though, I've sent mine back in for RMA due to a known issue where they won't sync and the right bud becomes so quiet that it's unusable, they have a new hardware revision that fixes this. I will say that Jabra customer support is excellent and gave me no runaround at all. The worst part was having to wait for the week on exchange.
I'm waiting for the Sabbat E12. I saw great reviews online.

I use the IconX 2018 edition! Amazing hardware! One of the few earbuds where you can listen to your own tunes from the bud itself. No need for Bluetooth connection
The newer buds you cannot do that but I believe those have slightly better battery and wireless charging.
The first model, forget it. Battery life I believe was 3 hours
I use the Anker Soundcore Liberty Air and they are amazing! Has a good and secure fit and thanks to Bluetooth 5.0, it seamlessly connects with my 6T. Sound is pretty good. Here are some pictures. And as for price, I stay in the United Arab Emirates so it's for AED 230.
Honestly I work in I.T. as an IMAC tech. I build computers all day and deploy. I'm able to get 8 hours out of my "Tranya T2" headphones.
The sound is fantastic for just $59.49 CAD or $45 USD.
There is no lack of bass, in fact it's pretty mind blowing, however it does not muddy up the sound at all. Its' right where you need it when you want it.
The right earbud is the master, and the left one is a slave to the right one. So if you want to use it mono, it'll just be the right one. This isn't a problem for me.
I've used them for 8 hours on a single charge *each earbud can last much longer than 8 hours* The charging case will charge the earbuds 4x before the case itself needs to be charged. Luckily it charges in something like an hour or less.
Each earbud magnetically snaps into it's own charging port. Not overly necessary but I love that feature.
I'm a bit of an audiophile, have been my entire life however I feel pretty safe bringing something of this value to work, and not having to worry about my top earphones.
I also cut the lawn with them, as the sound isolation is amazing.
