Looking for $60-$90 android-compatible earbuds.

I'm looking for a pair of earbuds less than $90. I previously used these which I got for $3 on black friday.

 

The earphones should have a right angle connector, or something more low-profile than the regular straight connector, and I'd prefer a regular round cord rather than a flat one. Durability is a big one.

 

If there's an in-line mic, I'd prefer it be Android compatible. I don't know if the 3-button remotes work with android at all.

 

I live in the US and would prefer it be Amazon or Newegg. At this point I don't care too much about the sound, ask long as it sounds better than the stock earbuds.

 

I've looked at the Klipsch s4a II but many reviews state that they aren't durable and suffer from the cable falling apart at the connector.

Same with the bose mie2,  even though they're out of my budget.

 

Is there a good pair of earbuds for android under $90 that sound good and won't fall apart?

Or the dx160's. The dx120's sound as good if not better then my Sennheiser 558's. It depends if you prefer different sound levels. They are extremely comfortable and they don't tangle that much.

Are you sure about that I don't think you can get same sound experience with earphones like you can with headphones?

Yes well they do sound very good. To me anyway they sound very similar. But I have never messed around with expensive IE's or headphones before so it's difficult to compare them but my dx120's to me sound similar to my 558's.
