Has anyone bought or tried the Nokia Purity In-Ear Stereo Headset by Monster - i am at the verge of buying this & I will really appreciate any form of review.
I have been using the ibeats by Dre, but it is absolutely rubbish from a design and durability perspective. i am on the second which has just gone mental already in 3 months.
My TITAN also could not utilize the controls on the headset. i think the drivers were not optimized for Windows Phone. Hopefully the Nokia Purity In-Ear Stereo Headset by Monster will, since it is fully compatible wit the lumia's
I will order one today none the less....
can anyone confirm these work on other windows phones?
I just received mine today & yes it does work on my TITAN beautifully if i may add
where did you buy them?
I'd really love to hear more about these headphone. Do they support the radio functionality of windows phone and do all the controls work?
I've never gotten to try fully functional headphones because the two phones I bought off craigslist didn't have any and the Titan doesn't come with any.
Sweet man. Glad to hear they work. Do you have a link to where you purchased them?

Do they have volume controls?
Mic?
Answer/hangup/voice command button?
Thanks!! Been looking for some headphones. Would love to know if these will fit the bill.
I bought them via Expansys UK -

Yes, with my TITAN i have voice control, music pause/play. forward and backward, for F/B you double tap and triple tap respectively since it has just one button. You can control the volume with the +/- volume rocker buttons

Yes, radio functionality works perfect on my TITAN, and i am sure they will too for any other Windows phone ...
Slightly odd question, but is the end straight or L shaped? With the Titan being so large, a straight ended headphone cable doesnt fit so well in the pocket and is subject to breakages.
Also, anyone care to say anything about sound and build quality?

the end is straight, but it has the flat (patent pending) cable design which fits perfectly in my pockets and jackets!
the sound quality is excellent comparing it with the ibeats. it really kicks in when you turn on the the sound enhancer under settings.
$110.99 yikes...
Hope the price goes down when they officially come to the states
Just got mine. The controls work perfectly with my LG Optimus 7.
It work well as handsfree for my lumia, my razr and my wife's iphone. But the controls only work fully on lumia, on iphone only action middle button work while on razr any button i pressed brinv me to voicecommannd, LoL. Yet it is clearly written on the box, so you got what you expect ;-)
SQ wise, i always thought monster's ranges from the turbine, dre,etc as overpriced boombox. Surprisingly, this one is entirely different animal. Yes the bass are more pronounced but it's nicely controlled and accurate without exaggeration. The mids are nice, the highs bit rolled off but still there. Overall, the most balanced and neutral amongst monster creations.
It also sounds great out of the box, quite rare since usually headphones/speakers need burn-in time forthe sound signature to settle. I dontknow how it will sound after used several hours but i'm on my second day now and it grow on me. I like it more now than my UE Superfi i've been using for 2 years.
Recommended to try!
Hope it will have in VN with a better price
Good headset with very nice and decent sound. Good bass and nice high. Controls work perfectly with HTC Titan I.
Anyone have any opinions on which is better? I'm an avid runner and cyclist and looking for a stereo bluetooth headset to get rid of the wire. Sweat resistance and sound quality are my biggest concerns.

I personally found the S10's to be extremely uncomfortable after only a few minutes. They were returned the next day.
I haven't tried the other model.
I've owned S9, S9-HD and S10. Sound quality is so disappointing with the S10, get the S9-HD. It is the best.
I bought the LG Tone Bluetooth earphones. I liked them because of the 10 hour battery charge and because of the small earphones.
I actually took them to the gym last night and they weren't bothersome while I was on the treadmill. they didn't fall out or anything. at the beginning, the base jumped around a little. but then I tucked them into my sweater and they stayed in place. they did get sweaty but I just cleaned them down with a sanitary wipe a couple of hours later when I got home. didn't notice anything today.
and just now I wore them for a couple of hours while I went out for a long walk at the beach.
answer call buttons, play/pause, volume up/down, forward/back buttons.
they're pretty inconspicuous when wearing something with a collar. the audio is good. like i said... 8-10 hours on a single charge. that itself was a big selling point for me.
I had originally wanted these Sony instead: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001GXR1P2/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8 Sony Ericsson Bluetooth HBH-IS800 - Headset ( in-ear ear-bud ) - wireless... but they only hold a 3-4 charge. and they stick out from your ear more than regular in-ear earphones because I guess that's where the Bluetooth stuff is located. as well as the battery. and these lack any sort of buttons. I really like the simplicity of them but I passed.
and then I thought about going this route: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003DQ1DCM/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8 Sony Ericsson Hi-Fi Bluetooth Stereo Headset with FM Radio... but i figured I'd still have to deal with the length of wire from the headphones you choose to plug in. but the good thing about these ones is that you can plug in some high quality headphones if you choose to.
and finally, if all you're going to use the earphones is for exercising... then you could go with these: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005FVNHBI/ref=cm_sw_r_an_am_ap_am_us?ie=UTF8 Jabra SPORT Bluetooth Stereo Headset - Black/Yellow... but then you can't use them for casual stuff without looking silly.
I didn't even consider those Motorola ones because they look silly to use say at work... and they look rigid.
I looked into a wide variety of available Bluetooth earphones. I chose the LG Tone for the reasons I stated. I like them. and I found them new on Craigslist for $40.
What would you guys recommend for a cheap bluetooth headset capable of streaming music from my Atrix while at the gym? Doesn't have to be flashy or expensive or have insane sound quality.... just something reliable, that will work for a while and be somewhat resistant to drops etc...
I've got the S10 headset. It's okay, seems pretty durable, and stays on snugly when running. I do get a little tired of wearing them after a couple of hours. And the sound is just mediocre without using some king of EQ app, like DSPManager or something.
They work pretty well for running, though. And casual listening at work. And conference calls.
I've had mine for 9 months or so.
I personally use the MW600 by sony ericsson which lets you actually use your own headphones - a big plus if you care about the sound, seeing almost any high quality headphones are better then the ones that are built into these usual bluetooth pieces.
also battery life is pretty damn good and it has a led screen which shows which song you are playing and also has control buttons and volume, its very lightweight and all-around a pretty good device.
i've also found this device very useful for a lot of other occasions, seeing as you can plug anything that has the right cable to it, like speakers and what not.
I've had the Moto S9 and S9HD. Sound quality of the S9HD is great. However, I'm on set #4 as sweat kills the control buttons if you sweat heavily. I've heard that the S10s are a little more sweat resistant, but still subject to the same mode of failure. Due to this, and the inferior sound quality of the S10s, I'd pass on them. If you don't sweat heavily, the S9HDs are a good choice.

Thanks for all the responses. I've really learned a ton from the suggestions in this thread. The Motorola reviews here have matched what i've read on the web. S10 is more sweat resistant but sound quality is severely lacking. The other recommendations also suggest that they will not survive my situation (the humidity in NOLA is brutal year round). Still have not seen anyone with experience with the jaybird gear. The price is almost double compared to the other recommendations. Could that unit have the sound and build quality i'm looking for?
As much as I'd love to get rid of the wires, it seems like the better solution, for me anyway, may be wired earphones.

I will say my cheap Skullcandy earbuds sound better than the S10 headset I have. My only beef was that they would fall out while I was running.
Sorry if this is a bit late but I have owned both the S9 and the S10. I've had no problems with sweat.
The biggest advantage of these over pretty much all of the alternatives is that you can wear them whilst running. Anything with a cable I found whipped about and the headphone type ones weren't secure enough for my liking.
S10 sound quality isn't great but can be improved by changing the ear buds for some of the larger items which come with the headset. Other than this I like the S10s and they are (otherwise) a step up from the S9s.
I used the jaybirds for a while and i found them far more comfortable than the motos. Quality was good as well.

Ive had s9, s9-hd, s10, and jf3. s9 was a great headset, survived alot of beating, but quality was so-so. s9-hd had great quality, but lost it after about 6 months, presumably from sweat (I use my headset primarily when i am working around the yard, or riding a motorcycle in the summer, both of which cause me to sweat like a beast). S10 was far less comfortable than the S9 and 9-hd, seemed that the band was much stiffer and it pressed against my ears resulting in me only being able to wear them for about an hour pain free. Additionally, I never saw more than about 6 hours battery life out of any of the motorola products, which is problematic if you ride for 8-10 hours on a saturday trip. I picked up the JF3 in july of last year after the s10 bit the dust in an unfortunate encounter with a truck tire (oops). Sound quality is better than the 3 motorolas by a good bit, and i listen to them turned WAY up often, due to ambient noise from wind (motorcycle) or lawnmower. They also have much better noise canceling characteristics. It takes a bit to get the correct configuration worked out as they come with multiple size and styles of earbuds, however, once all is said and done, I can ride comfortably with them securely in my ears with interstate speed winds hitting me in the face, have plenty of volume and quality to go with it, and the battery life seems to be in the 10-12 hour range. So far no ill effects from perspiration, and ive put alot of sweat on them. Additionally, I had problems with bluetooth communication with the motorolas. I used to leave the phone in a saddlebag prior to having a handlebar mount, and with it behind me like that, the motorolas would often skip and cutout, the jf3 did not do this for the 1 month I had it in the saddlebag (I got a handlebar mount shortly after).
So far its the best bluetooth headset ive owned, and unless something changes drastically, ill run them till they wear out and buy another set just like em. The only downside i can come up with, is that like most bluetooth headsets, they dont fit well under a full face helmet, but that is a general problem with all that i have used, not just these.
I just received my Jaybird JF3 set today. I have to agree that the sound quality is a tad better than my Moto S9HD set. However, the Motos do have a little more bass than the Jaybirds. Haven't used the Jaybirds in the gym yet -- will try them tomorrow. I'm hoping that they withstand sweating better than the Motos. They have a lifetime warranty against sweat damage, so I'm hopeful that they'll last longer than my Motos, which seem to die from sweat exposure after 4-6 months of hard use at the gym.

rickwood, it's been a little more than a day. So what is your opinion now that you have had enough time to review the headphones? I am trying to find the best and least bothering bluetooth stereo headset there is for running. this seems to be the product to choose, and i look forward to your opinion.
I've been using the Jaybirds for a while now. I can attest that they are indeed sweat proof! This was my primary reason for buying them, so I'm happy. Sound quality and battery life have also been great for use at the gym. I can also lay on my back with them either on a gym bench or in bed without issue (can't do that with the Moto's due to the rigid back piece). Volume level is also acceptable, although the don't go quite as loud as my S9-HDs.
Now for the annoyances:
First, the bass on the S9-HDs is just better. I personally believe that this is due to the Jaybirds inability to seal in my ear properly. Even the largest set of ear pads on the Jaybirds is too small -- about half the size of the pads on the S9-HDs. I called Jaybird to see if they offered a larger set of ear pads, but they don't.
Second, the Jaybirds tend to want to fall out of my ears. This is due to the smaller ear pads, the weight all being concentrated right below the ears, and the fact that unlike the S9-HDs, they don't rely on compression to hold them in securely. I tried all three sets of the pads and the ear clips, but I still have some issues holding them in securely. They're not awful, but they're not as secure as the Moto's.
The controls on the Jaybirds are also not as good as the Moto's. I can advance to the next track just fine, but can't ever seem to get them to play the previous track when I want to. Volume controls work just fine.
Jaybird ships only a very short USB cable with the headphones. This is very annoying. I mean really, how much would it have cost to include a proper wall charger? The connector on the headphones is very small -- not sure if it's proprietary or not, but I think to rectify the situation you'll have to buy a longer cable from Jaybird if they offer one. I've just been using the supplied 1-ft cable and plugging into the USB port on my laptop, but this can be annoying.
I have not used them for calls, so I can't give you any meaningful feedback on that.
All in all I do like the Jaybirds. But if Motorola made a truly sweat proof set of the S9-HDs, they would be my first choice. I still wear my S9-HDs to the gym when I'm doing weights only. But if I'm doing cardio too, I use the Jaybirds.
One other annoyance with both sets (but this is phone related). On my Atrix, bluetooth range was fantastic. With my new Galaxy S III, range is much worse. Not a problem when running, but really annoying in the weight room if I walk behind a weight rack or machine and my phone is sitting on the other side and the music cuts out. Oh well. Sometimes I miss my Atrix (but my daughter is now enjoying it).

Anybody have any good suggestions for some bluetooth earbuds? I have both the Motorola SD 9's and 10's as a headset but never could really get good sound isolation from them. I've been using some wired earbuds lately and am noticing how much of a difference in tone that makes(especially on lower frequencies). Still hate these wires though. Headphones that go over your entire ear aren't my thing either.

First impression on these. Ho-lee-sheet! You weren't kidding. I snagged a pair today. BLOWN AWAY! So comfortable(more so than a headset), sound is a-ma-zing(I can hear things I never could before). and the bluetooth range is very impressive. I get about the same range with these as I did with the S-9's and S-10's,,, and those are headset sized. I'm hoping they will hold up as these are mainly for working out.

I've had them for at least 10 months now, and they have been my daily driver headphones. They are perfect for working out, snowboarding, and since I work night-shifts at a factory here in Denver, they are pretty nice at noise cancelling.
I hope you enjoy as much as I did!
I know this is late but for anybody else that is looking try the Motorola S9, S10, S11 or any of the on the S line. I have had S10's for over two years and they work flawlessly

I'd like to make an amendment to this. the S9's had super weak bass, but the S9-HD's were REALLY good and brought the bass up to respectable levels. S10's to big headed fellas like myself were not comfortable at ALL. So, keep that in mind. I haven't tried the S11's
I'm currently using the Jaybird Freedom 3's and I really like that, very comfy, better treble than the S9's and the bass, with some EQ manipulation with Viper4Android, and very good too.
LG tone
Really like the lg hbs-730 tone+. I run in them and they have been great. Also had the S9s before that and liked them but have felt that the in ear aspect of the 730's has been a nice upgrade.
Do they stay in your ear?

One thing I loved about the s9 and s10 sets is that they never came out of my ear during a workout (except for when bench pressing, but that was to be expected). How has that experience been with the lg's?
I mostly just run with the LGs and almost exclusively outdoors. I have had zero problems with them falling out. The only thing I will note is that there is sometimes a noticeable wind noise over the buds when it is windy. I guess because of the shape of the exposed end. It isn't terrible though and doesn't ruin the experience.

The Sol Republic Shadow very good sound performance for the price. And it is very comfortable to wear both around the neck with nice design. The life batterry is long enough for using, about 8 hours. The best bluetooth earbuds that I've used.
Enjoy it

Hi all,
I recently decided to upgrade from an N7000 to the N9005. And what a change it is ^_^ I can finally keep up with the latest games and whatnot.
I however find the Note 3 speaker terrible. It distorts with the slightest sound it seems. I tried a few units and it seems to be a problem with most Note 3s.
Does anyone know of any portable speakers (preferably bluetooth) that aren't too expensive? I'm not really looking for high quality here. Mostly to use with podcasts and some gaming. I looked around for some soundbars, but they are very expensive apparently

i like my jbl charge no call answering but real loud and my headset stays connected for calls
I recommend the Jambox Mini. On sale $30 cheaper than I just paid at a big box store. It comes in several face design and color options and the sound puts the more expensive Beats Pill to shame.

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.
