Anybody recommend headphones?

hmm yeah the battery is putting me off



don't want to have to charge it often especially with me taking these earphones everywhere



might look for some wired ones....


They last around 6~7 hours of constant usage, I listen to more music than the average joe. Also, the newer versions of the Freedom 3 seem to have a "standby sensor" where after certain amount of minutes of inactivity, it automatically goes into sleep mode and instantly turn on when media is being played. The Jaybirds BlueBirds X (4th Gen Bluetooth headphones) have 8~10 hours of battery but are more expansive (prices on Amazon are dropping fast). I believe that the drivers are increased for better sound quality. The main advantage is the wireless feature but the battery life and the sound quality is what is having me look to other options (sound quality is fine, just for what I'm looking for it's not doing me any justification).

hmmm thats what I'm thinking
maybe i should choose some good wired earphones

i have to bare in mine that the bluebirds are really expensive
 
Nocs NS400. Really superb sound and sub for that kind of money. Here in my country they cost 65 American bucks. Way better than my old Sennheiser CX400-II and my AKG-headphones. And the best of all: cables don't lash together while you walk/run. Noise canceling is one of the best, you can't hear almost anything so I recommend that you not use a bike and listening at music in the city with busy traffic.
 
Check out the munitios, I've got the munitio billets and the bass is excellent, mids are better, and highs are excellent as well. I've heard the Munitio nines are real bass heavy but after burn in the highs and mids come in real nice. The billets are the best 50 bucks I've ever spent.
 
Hi there,

Will use this thread so I don't need to make a new one. With 5/5s and 5C, so has the headphone jack has been placed at the bottom. I wonder what your opinion is the best headphones for that particular location? I have the headphones that everyone got with the iPhone and I know I want a more sensible option.

Do you recommend having a pair of headphones that are L-shaped or not? I had imagined a couple having a microphone and volume costing preferably not more than around 76-140 USD.
 
I have the Bose IE2(no mic) and I love them. The bass is great, the sound is crisp and clear with a lot of debt. It was like listening to music for the first time again. And they are very comfortable with apple-like customer service

Best headphones I have. Upgrade from beats solo hd's:
