anyone know some decent cheap ear buds for an android phone?

nightmarevoid
Go to solution Solved by Arshdeep,

I'm looking for some new ear buds. I'd prefer them to be under $100, sound isolating (I know it won't be excellent at the price point, but anything helps) and have working volume controls on the chord. I couldn't really find anything after a half hour of searching, so I thought I'd come ask the community if anyone has any suggestions based off of personal experience, just to get me going in the right direction. A good website to look on would also help.

Thanks everyone!

I know what you mean. Heres sub $50 that i have owned and still do.

Shure Se 215?

pops up on massdrop every so often... 

 

Really best thing to do is read as many reviews as you can and find something you like the sound of.

Y?

They work fine 4 the price range

Have the worst audio quality to price you could ever think off those sound like tin cans strapped to your head.... like almost anything sounds better than those in that price range. A honda accord would work but for the same price why not get a Lamborghini you know..

They look awesome, but the slightly open design worries me about sound isolation. Thanks for the suggestion though :)

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

they really are for the price. Apple in ears are alright. Not the best but far away from the worst.

Honestly, the best "cheap" ones that I've ever used, are stock HTC earbuds, the one that come with the M8. They actually sound fantastic.

Thanks for all the great suggestions people! I managed to learn about shure brand, which I didn't know about before, but what I'm actually going to go for are these $30 pair my friend showed me on Amazon. They have foam tips and are well reviewed. I'll post a link to them once I'm home.

If you want to be able to adjust what sound you want... inter-changeable sound filters.. wooden housed and under $100

 

 

If you want to stay more budget I can also recommend the SoundMagic E10S Though not sure if they will have the isolation you want, though foam ear pieces can be bought for almost any pair these days for a few $
