Some extra information might be helpful. What do you like to listen to? What style do you want? Ear-buds/IEMS, Over-ear, or on-ear?

 

I recently posted my impressions of the Sennheiser Urbanite On-Ears. They're in your price range, are pretty comfortable for on-years, fold up nicely and have decent sound for many types of music.

Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7 is currently only $200 in black. That would be my personal suggestion out of all options for mobile closed cans under $200.

The title says it all. It's for smartphones. And I use it for music.

I would go for either over ear or on ear.

Audio technica m50x. Good yet famous. I will have to try it myself to see its full potential.

M50x have a terrible value, do not get them. There is much better for same price/less money

I'd recommend the Creative Aurvana Live! or NVX XPT100 over the M50X easily, and those sell for less than half the price of the M50X. The M50X is simply an overhyped and overpriced headphone, nothing more really. If it were around the $80-$90 (maybe even $100), then sure I could say it's worth something, but they aren't....
