Any Earbuds for the Note like the iPhone Earbuds? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

anyone know if there are inexpensive earbuds for our Note that do everything the iPhone earbuds do? (talk on phone, pause a song, skip ahead to next song, etc..)
tx --- art.

Bought these for my wife but I haven't tried them. She indicated it does to the pause and skip and mic works as she's called me with them. These were also on sale but originally made for the HTC Rezound (i think). Still a newbie so can post the URL..but if you go to Wireless Emporium and look up the Note I ordered the BEATS for the HTC phone.
Good hunting.

Get the Klipsch S4I's. You can get them for like under a hundred bucks. They're the best out atm.

How "inexpensive" are you talking? The ones that come with the phone do everything you just mentioned.

The phone (ATT Note) doesn't come with phones.

Sorry. My bad.

Use the ones that come with the Samsung Infuse. Those work pretty good for beginner headphones.

Any cheapo ( or expensive) pair of iPhone earphones will work on the Note.
I just tested mine with a cheap pair of iPhone earphones + mic that I got on ebay, and it worked. The click button on the earphones also worked ( with MortPlayer. 1 click = pause, 2 click = next song, 3 clicks = previous song ). Seems pretty good to me.

These did not work. For me either. Only audio with no mic output. The button when pressed 3times fast would advance the track. Thats it. These were from an iPhone 4S.

$20 ear buds
Anyone know of earbuds like klipsch s4a thatare around $20?

Skullcandy and nothing else, swear by them, my wife, daughter, and myself use nothing else, I have two pairs ones the Inked Buds that go for around $20 bucks and Smoking Buds that go for $30, noise isolation with limited lifetime warranty, I've used mine on my note with 5.1 on and it sounds amazing, so crisp. Can't beat them for the price. I've gotten 4 pairs replaced in the last 5 years with an rma from their site and gotten a new one back every time one of the buds stop working, as long as no visual damage is shown free replacement, I think if ripped off you'll get a discount on a new purchase.
RoloRacer on Galaxy Note!

zagg smartbuds work, stop/play/play next song and volume works, and mic works also
they're $50 on their site, but they eternally have a 20% discount code going on their site so I got them for $40.

I was in Best Buy a month ago in an adventurous mood and I came across the Rocketfish Solace. Foam earbuds, call/end button, in line mic, and active noise canceling. The only thing missing was volume control. They were on sale for $50. Best earbuds I've ever had. They do a pretty good job of canceling airplane noise. My wife went back the next day and bought herself a pair.
Unfortunately, since I'm a noob, you'll have to Google it, I can't post the link. It looks like the sale is over and they're back to $80, but I'd happily pay $80 for them.

Headphones with Mic for Note

Hello everyone, Need some advice on picking up a pair of headphones that I can use to listen to music and also make calls. Apart from the Klipsch made specifically for Android, is there anything else out on the market? I really wanted the bose but read on a few sites that they dont full function correctly. I have iPhone buds that I can listen to music but the mic does not work but work fine with my Nexus S.
I use these
amazon.com/V-MODA-Noise-Isolating-Headphone-Universal-One-Button/dp/B002XYUHFY/ref=sr_1_12?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1330051591&sr=1-12
They work great with my Note.
Thanks, I am looking for standard earbuds not those noise cancellation.
I picked up the skullcandy ones from att , they were 39.99. I know they are probably not great especially for the the price but honestly I like them alot. Decent bass to treble mix and ppl say they hear me very well when I use them.

I got some Ifrogz in ear headphones that work get at Walmart the other day. They have a Mic and a button that functions like the iphone button. I believe they were $16. The sound is pretty good I think.

they are standard buds not sure why it says noise cancellation. plus noise cancellation would be way more than 30 bucks.
Sorry i am not being clear but i am talking about the non isolator ones. I am looking for something like the standard iphone style not like the in ear ones.

I have a pair of Altec Lansing muzx I believe they are called. Woot sells them from time to time for like 5 bucks. For the price and with the mic, they are solid. Its a braided and coated cable, just wish the 3.5mm was a right angle plug and not a 90° plug that I will surely break in my pocket eventually.

I just tried my Zagg headphones and the paus/play/forward/back button works. I would recommend these headphones if you can find them for cheap, especially since they replace them if they stop working. I don't think they are worth full price.

how do you like those? they look really gimmicky to me.
I am using the one that came with the Samsung Focus (windows phone ). It works great. The mic, volume control, pick up and end call function works too. I actually had a $40 skull candy earbud... but the volume control didn't work. I use it with double twist and when i press the on and off button it plays music using double twist. press twice quickly and it goes to the next track. press 3 times and goes reverse. i <3 OEM

Ive tried sony and jvc. The sony's sound good but ghe volume controls dont work. The jvc's just sound flat out horrible. The klipsch app says it doesnt work specifically with the galaxy s 2 phones. My basic needs are good sound, working controls (volume will probably not be one of them), and a reasonable price.
I've tried many and can say without a doubt, the best money I ever spent on my phone was my headset.

You can get them on Amazon for $35.99 http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-S305-Bluetooth-Microphone-Packaging/dp/B002BH3I9U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1335279230&sr=8-1
The battery lasts for about 8 hours of constant listening, the mic is excellent, you have control over your music with FF/Rev, pause, skip, make a call, answer a call etc.

It's a shame skullcandy doesn't allow their controls to work with Android. I think it's some deal with Apple. They work flawlessly with all of my ipods. Play/pause and answering calls works fine but volume control won't work.

All I need is a mic and one button. It can work as pause/play, answer/end call and (with Poweramp) long-press to skip to the next track. I don't care about volume control, and the only other requirement is that they're the in-ear ones.
I'd really like to get away with spending around $30 or less.
In fact, the stock Samsung headphones from my old Vibrant were great and were what I had been using, but something happened to the right side bud and it died.
I've got some klipsch s4 and i got them cheap as dirt. Paid around 20 bucks for them. I would HIGHLY recommend those to anyone

as far as I can tell the volume control (3 button earbuds) don't work well with Android
Head-fi.org will give you plenty of info (I'm a member over there).
Anyways, I recommend my current buds. These offer phenomenal sound for the money. Denon AH-C560R. If you want a trial run some best buy stores in the USA stock them you can try them and return 'em.
Although if you think the Klipsch S4 are expensive then you may not want these...great sound stage and very good bass. It provides me a fix when I'm not using my "home system".

I definitely do not want to spend more than $30 on headphones I'll only be using at work. I move around a lot and the cord sometimes gets snagged on things.
In any case, I was cleaning my desk and found my old Jabra BT3030 A2DP "tag", and it still works. I'll just use that with my current headphones (they're crap, but they were really cheap crap - $10). Thanks all. Oh, and apologies to sicmadek for jacking his thread!
So what are the best headphones money can buy right now?

I think you'd probably like Skullcandy inkd with mic. You can get them online for $15 - $25. They have the one button like you want and sound decent. Definitely not audiophile good but for the money and features they work pretty well. I upgraded to the Titans but I don't think the sound is much better. I wanna try some of the higher end stuff but I should wait for my 3 pairs of skullcandy buds to die first.

[Q] Are there any bud/hook earphones good for working out and have working mic

Ok, here's the deal. I have some power beats phones that I used with my Galaxy S2, and the mic and center play/pause button worked great. I bought a Note and the mic doesn't work. (Damnit) So I bought the Phillips SHS8105A. Well these don't stay deep enough in the ear canal when running with any of the buds to here the bass good. So then I bought the Klipsch S4A earbuds. I ran like 10 steps and the left bud fell out, SMH. So these will not be my solution either. I would love to just use my problem free power beats, so I guess I'm wondering if the problem is software or hardware based. Works on the S2 but not the Note? Could it just be a file missing that enables it? If it didn't work on a phone from the same company it wouldn't be driving me crazy, Lol. Any opinions, help is welcome
I use dell bluetooth

I've got the Jaybird bluebuds and they are great. I replaced the tips for some foamy ones and they fit great.

They Jaybird Freedom Sprint has Apt-X. I use this one. It has very crappy battery life at 4.5 hours. But then again it is targeted only for working out and so is more than sufficient for a workout session hell even two days off Strictly workout sessions.
I know a LG representative that has the tones and all bias aside he loves them he's a boxer. When he trains he says they do not move even when he sweats. And they also have phenomenal battery life, but for me I would just use the J birds if I was strictly doing workouts.
If you are looking for something that is to replace your headphones and you want to go wireless all around, then I would recommend the Bluedio R+ bluetooth headphones. They are apt X bluetooth 4 NFC and has a slot for microSD card so if your phone is dead and use a micro SD card for your music you can just pop it in the headphones and be good to go! All of this for under $100. Its roughly under a hundred if you order from China or you can get them on Amazon and ebay for about $120 to $140.
I ordered mine from http://m.aliexpress.com/item/1174967490.html
Mine are on the way so I have not tested it personally but if you read all reviews about them everyone has something good to say about it. They are apparently the best in their class for the money if you like to listen to music with alot of bass.

One thing I forgot to mention about the J bird freedom sprint is that it is the second version the one right before the blue but X. The new ones are horrible in terms of sitting in your ears that is the number one thing you read about them. This sounds post to be excellent and so the battery life at about eight and a half hours but what is the point if they can't even fit in your ears comfortably while you're working out.
However the freedom Sprint version which is roughly 80 dollars, is the most comfortable earphones that I have tried. Even the call mic quality is good. They do not fall out if you use the honeycomb shape inserts, which taper off at the end in the same shape as that little groove in your ear right above the ear hole...and it just clicks right in

Not used any BT 4.0 headphones/receivers yet, but been very happy with the Samsung HS3000 for more than a year now. BT 3.0 but with Apt-X, love the versatility of being able to use different headphones with it - IEM for exercise/when portability is of paramount importance, full-sized cans when wanted, or even connecting to stereos etc via 3.5mm-3.5mm cable. Can be had really pretty cheap now too, around the $30USD mark.

The problem with the Jaybirds is that they care about sound quality, so the openings where the sound comes out are really large for a pair of ear buds. This in turn makes it hard to find comfortable tips that fit in your ears.
The tips that come with the buds are all too large to sit comfortably and they all feel like they are going to fall out (though they never actually have)
I recently went to target and found some foam tips in the bargain bin. I forced them over the tips of the bluebuds and it solved all the problems. They fit great and I never feel like it is going to fall out.

They can be pricey, but the battery lasts up to 8 hours, comes with a lifetime warranty, and they are really quality built.
Even the packaging is impressive. Sweat proof.
I'm telling you, I'd buy them again, and I'm a cheapskate.
you guys are right about the LG Tones+. They are awesome! I forget I'm even wearing them half the time because they're so lightweight. Also, they sound amazing, I don't need BT 4.0 for them to work great, they have AMAZING battery life (rated for 10, not 8 hours for music) and I used them all day at work 2 days in a row, while still having the battery on 'medium'. That was 2 10 hour shifts too.
I didn't think I'd like the design, because I thought it looked clunky, but like I said I barely can tell I'm wearing them. Maybe once my Fiance sees them she'll think otherwise on the styling, which is when I'll probably pick up the ankers, but for now, these work wonderfully and impressed me.
The only gripe I have (and this isn't specific to this headset, it pertains to all BT headsets) is I can only pair with two deices at once, unless I'm mistaken? I want to use this with my new MBP, my iPad and my Note III. My PS3 would be an added bonus, anyone know how to accomplish this or if I'm just being a newb and doing it wrong?
My Jaybird Bluebuds X work great as well. You can buy the tips from the site below.

FYI for those interested in the BackBeat Go 2 Tiger Direct has them for $69.99 (instant $10 off) and a $20 mail in rebate for a final price of $49.99.
I know mail-in rebates kinda suck. But it a good deal at $49.99

Those are the exact same tips I got. But for like 3 dollars at Target.

Looking for some decent bluetooth headphones

I'm looking for some decent bluetooth headphones to pair with my dish hopper. I don't want to spend too much, maybe 20-$30. I just want them to watch tv and want them with decent battery life. Any suggestions or anyone own any?

I know those are too expensive for what you actually said but I got them 2 weeks ago and I'm simply blown away. They sound just like they would've cost at least double the price they are sold by Amazon They are chargable via Micro-USB. 1 Full charge lasts for about 1 week with approx. 2h of use daily.

I bought LG-Tone+ 700. I like them alot but they won't be 20 or 30 bucks US. I assume probably Close to 40 or 50. I got mine from Amazon but since I live in Europe, they cost me 55 euros. Best Investment because I've bought 100 Dollar wired headphones that aren't as good as these.
+1 on the LG tone, on sale you can get them for slightly under 40. Haven't had to buy new headphones for over a year now with these things because there aren't any wires to get messed up with prolonged use. Went through so many pairs of headphones where it broke near the 3mm jack. No more problems

I have owned the Lg hbs700 and the 730. Both are excellent bluetooth headphones for the price. I recently purchased a pair of Arctic p311's because I had a $30 giftcard to Tiger Direct and could not find anything else that I wanted from them. I have to say that I am absolutely blown away from the sound that these produce for under $30.
I have a pretty big head and although they don't look like they would be comfortable, they very much are! They also stay in place if you want to use them in the gym. The Lg models always slip off when laying down to do bench pressing.
Here is a link to them from Amazon if you want to check them out.

I have a pair of Jaybird BlueBuds. They have very good fidelity, 8 hours of charge time and VERY light weight obviously. If you're looking for something minimal and not as bulky as over-the-ear units then take a look at these.
http://www.amazon.com/JayBird-BlueB...e=UTF8&qid=1390957322&sr=1-1&keywords=jaybird
I got these are they're pretty nice and not too expensive. They have Bluetooth 4.0 and have APT-X.
The earpieces look bulky but are surprisingly light.

bt headphones
I just need some BT headphones for light exercise, running, etc. Bought these tonight due to the good reviews. Its behind the head style Bluetooth headphones with built in microphone (although reviews say the mic is garbage, it's not why I want it, anyway).

Also, for $10 less (approximately $20, total) you can get one model lower. It has equally good reviews but is said to have a little less sound quality and has no built in microphone.

Sorry about the links. I am a new user (less than ten posts) and the forum won't let me post links. Just copy and paste the links.
Love how people don't read. Anyways, thanks to the ones who did and suggested headphone in my price range, will definitely be looking into some of these.

I bought a pair of these.
Charge by mini USB (not micro, unfortunately).
Cheap and cheerful, but work just fine.
Used mostly for spoken word podcasts and audiobooks as well as phone calls, so high quality for music wasn't necessary.

LG Tone+ HBS-730 is a very good BT headphone. Very lightweight and easy to wear. Like the Note 3 it supports apt-x for CD quality sound.

People are offering what they can. How about a thanks to everyone who DID suggest something. Next time, instead of the nasty response, maybe saying, "thanks" would be more in order. Perhaps NO response would have been better.

Thanks for your suggestion. And not trying to start ****, but I would rather get no response than someone suggesting $100 headphones. That is why I asked about cheaper headphones. I want to find some DECENT CHEAP ones. I don't mind some more expensive ones like the ones you and a few others suggested, but some of these responses were way more than I asked for in price range.

It was your response that led me to respond as I did. If you don't appreciate the help you get, don't ask for help at all. People are doing it because they are trying to be HELPFUL. Ignore what doesn't work for you by $20 or so (and, you get what you pay for), and instead look at the cheaper suggestions. Posting a snarky comment about people not reading your EXACT parameters and posting what they did is honestly, NOT going to engender people from helping next time.

Nasty <> Help
Just a suggestion.
These sure seem legit. http://1sale.com/electronics/audio-gaming/backbeat-go2-wireless-earbuds/

After seeing the way this thread has gone...It would be pretty safe to say that you are barking up the way wrong tree!

Here are some pictures and mini-review I have for the Arctic P311.

Kinivio makes a great affordable headphone
I was notified of this set on slickdeals last week from Newegg.com for 20 bucks, they are fantastic, comfortable and have a great battery life. Right now they are 30 bucks. So I ordered one and lo and behold I open the package yesterday, guess what...Newegg accidentally sent me 2 lmao! Scooore! Seriously though they sound way better than my cheapo pair of insignia before, plus those had the mesh part of the earpiece breakoff and they were just uncomfortable as all hell to wear. These Kinivios have padding instead, very comfortable.
