In-ear with mic

Hello,
I'm looking for a headset and in-ear model with mic, but all I can find i "Only for IPhone" and I don't want a bluetooth model as I allready have a Jabra BT3030 and the sound isn't good at all, and it's strange as the headphones are Ok but not over this bluetooth.
I usualy buy earphones for about 100$/75€, but I don't realy know how much to speed for good sound.
Some of the one I have looked up is these:
1. Creative Stereo Headset EP630i for iPhone
2. Klipsch Image S4i Headset
3. Sony DR-EX300IP Headset
...and all these are made for Apple, IPhone/IPod. Isn't there a standard how to comunicate sound in a cable that all phones could use?
My question is, does someone know if IPhones compability means all phones like Nokia or ONLY IPhones and the most important question here, have someone used one of these on your Nokia and sucessfully used earphones and mic an the buttons to answer/etc.
I have a Nokia N900.
...or if you have a better idea for god sound/mic/buttons on the N900.

My problem is the same as Anita's: I find the earbuds uncomfortable, same for the predecessor iPod sets. I was happy with the Earjams for my iPod listening.
Yes, these 'buds are slightly too small for the Earjams BUT I decided to see if I could make them fit. I was successful: I cut a small piece/strip of dense foam from a CD spindle spacer to create a tight fit on one side between the inside of the Earjam and the 'bud. The foam is light gray and the same shade as the detailing on the earbud--practically invisible. Now I can use the headset in comfort.
So, if you already have a set of Earjams, and a spare foam spacer, you could give it a try.

  • I lost one of the earbuds for my Apple In-ear Headphones with Mic. Now what do It do?

    I lost one of the earbuds for my Apple In-ear Headphones with Mic.
    In case you don't see why this could be a big deal, let me remind you that these little earphones will run you $79 new. Naturally, I'm sure there's got to be a reasonable solution that another owner of these headphones may know of or can share with me.
    Should I bring it to the Apple store or will they just laugh at me?
    Basically, all I'm missing is the jelly-like in-ear bud on one side (which is easily replaceable; I just need to know where I can order GENUINE extras from).
    Click here to see the Apple In-ear Headphones I'm referring to.

    I've tried several and the best by far is the Sennheiser MM50 iP ($99 at the apple store). The sound is incredible, particularly the low frequecy response (bass). These are even better than the Bose Triports I used for my iPod, plus they have the mic and button for recieving calls and ipod playback. I also have the airdrives, which don't even compare for sound quality and range because they aren't in-ear (they sit directly in front of the ear canal). I still use the airdrives in situations where I want music distraction but still want to hear what's happening around me, but for in-ear sound quality and iPhone functionality I don't think you're going to find better for the Sennheisers for under $100. In fact I don't think their is anything under $250 right now that would match it for performance, comfort and functionality.
    Note: these are asymmetrical which means the cord for the right earbud goes behind your neck to the right ear. I found this strange at first but now I actually like it because it allows you to pull the earlplugs out and just let them rest over your neck/shoulders.

  • Best alernative headphones with mic rem for iphone 4s

    Which are the best alernative headphones with mic and remote compatible with SIRI for iphone 4s?

    Im using the a-Jays Four. They seem great, mic is supposedly same as the one on Apple's own headset. The position is the same (lower jaw) and all button commands for volume, skip, fwd, siri etc are the same as with the official Apple headet.
    Sound is good enough for my ears and it seems to get the best reviews for any headet under £90.
    Yes there may be some that sound better and you will hear many say that especially from bass heads but none that have the quality of sound and a mic and controls that work as simply as Apple's headset.

    Hi chrissyfromrenton,
    you just have to close completely you Ipod (push 5-10 seconds on the button to open/close you ipod and slide the turn off) after open the ipod and it suppose to be correct I hope I answer to your question!

  • Using Apple Earphones with Mic and Remote with Ipod Nano (3rd generation)

    Hi, I'm just wondering if there is any way i can make the Ipod Nano(3rd generation) compatible with the Apple Earphones with Mic and Remote. I know on the box it says the earphones are only compatible with a few ipods, like the 4th generation ipod nano. But Is there any program i can download or use to allow the ipod to recognize the earphone remote and mic?
    Thanks a lot.

    I'm quite convinced the answer is no for that Apple mic.
    I do believe recording is possible on the Nano 3G with the right attachment. But I don't think the sound comes through the headphone jack the way they do on the nano 4G and iPhone 3G/touch.
    This review http://www.macworld.com/article/60004/2007/09/3gipodnano.html says it's possible, but when I look at "Belkin, Griffin Technology, and XtremeMac" I don't find much... doesn't sound like they worked very well ... the iKaraoke is compatible

  • Bluetooth headphone with MIC

    I'm considering to purchase a Bluetooth headphone with MIC for my iPad mini. If I connect, will the headphone MIC take over the iPad's builtin microphone?

    Shardsofmetal wrote:
    However, it sounds like you're saying that the headphones will work but the microphone won't, right? Thanks
    mainly true and most likely yeah! The sound will come through the headsets but the microphone will not be able to function at all.... The bluetooth on the iPod touch is very limited to what function it can perform, like Meg St. Clair mentioned is for stereo Headphone; wireless speakers and games. Things like headsets or anything(like microphones)that might be used as with Bluetooth is not supported. The only way you can get a microphone to work is if it's plugged in on the headphone Jack at the bottom of the iPod touch. Sorry that you had to hear that, you were probably hoping that you could use the Bluetooth with that microphone.....

  • Using Skull Candy 50/50 with Mic on it

    I got these skull candys with mic built in on it. There is only one plug that goes with the headset. I got it thinking I could just plug it into my Macbook Pro and the mic would work and the earbuds would work with it too. I use this for skype. I plug it into the headset slot and the mic doesn't work. I plug it into the mic one and the headset doesn't work. I don't think the mic worked either. How do I make it work? I'm also using bootcamp for windows 7 on this macbook pro. I switch between mac and windows depending if I'm gaming or not. Any tips? Am I going to need to purchase some adapter?

    The copy protection on any tracks purchased from the iTunes Store would have absolutely no effect on opening up any disk on which those tracks were backed up. If the disk won't even open on your system, then the problem is in the backup or in the optical drive in your system.
    They recommended buying a $50.00 program that removes the licensing
    No such program exists, and even if it did, it wouldn't apply to this problem.
    You really need to go back to the geeks and get them to help you. If you can't even view the contents of the disk, then the problem has nothing to do with iTunes. If they can open the disk on their system, first get them to show you can it will, and then get them to burn the tracks to another disk, confirming that it's a disk that your system can read (check your system's specs to make sure you know what formats your drive can accept). Or take the system back to them and have them figure out why the disk won't even load.
    Good luck.

  • Is the iPod Touch 2nd Gen compatible with current iPhone earbuds with mic?

    I have a friend that wants to talk to me on Skype with an iPod touch 2nd gen, but the earbuds don't have a microphone to talk into.
    Is the iPhone earbuds with mic compatible with the Touch Gen 2? Thanks.

    I found an Apple brand iPhone stereo headset (with mic) on eBay, but when I try it with my iPod Touch 2G on apps like Skype or QuickVoice, I get a message saying that there is no microphone attached. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

  • Best headset with mic to use with macbook pro

    Hello,
    I have a headset with a mic that I am using through Skype and other applications to speak to customers.
    The mic is connected through a stereo mini plug, going through the headphone input jack on my MacBook Pro.
    The mic audio is no longer registering through the audio input, and I can see (hear through recordings) that the only audio coming through when I where that headset is being picked up by the laptop built in mic.
    I've done some reseach on line and have a few questions:
    1)  Is there a known issue with mic audio coming through the headphone input?
    2) Is there a known issue with mic audio coming through the headphone input specifically only when using Mountain Lion?
    3) Is it better audio quality to have a headset with mic connected via a USB input rather than the stereo mini input.
    4) Are there any recommendations for mic/headset combos out there or a brand that makes good product compatible with the MacBook Pro?
    Thank you,
    Suzanne

    Good heatset mics very nearly dont exist.
    If you want quality audio at all, mid-level grade USB mic is the best route.
    And the use of headphones seperately.
    Best mic sub-200$ is the Zoom H2n
    Macbook Air uses a headset jack if you want a headset mic/headphone setup.
    the downside being most mics on headsets are ubiquitously bad quality.
    The PRO mics for laptops/ computers, most of them plug in via USB, not the headset jack.
    SONY ICD-SX712 is a great choice (best "cheap" mic Ive found)

  • Has anyone found any glow-in-the-dark earbuds (with mic) for the iPhone?   I'm looking for some that glow or light up so they can be seen when I walk in the dark.

    In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
    So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
    If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

  • Headphone with mic not working properly on Bootcamp Windows 7

    Hey, guys. I have a Macbook Air mid-2012, installed Windows 7 (Bootcamp) and I wish a I could use my Sony Stereo Headset DR-EX12iP with mic for chatting while playing some games. But the microphone isn't working in Windows 7 and I don't know why. I already searched over the internet about an answer but found none. The build-in microphone of MBA is too much sensitive and bother my friends. Just for information, I use the same headset in Mac OS X and it works perfectly with facetime and skype.
    I hope somebody can help me out. Thanks!

    Many bluetooth headsets used on phones will work for your application. I guess no one has replied because there are so many.
