Xperia z1 box headphones not impressive!

FreezySaga — Sat, 05 Oct 2013 15:07:50 GMT

The box headphones of xperia Z1 are not impressive at all.

Thy are just plain headphones with no controls at all. I strongly need music and call controls with my smartphone.

I dnt understnad y sony dint pack a premium headphones with xperia z1.

Again I have to shell out money to get one!

I googled around and found tht, bluetooth/nfc enabled wireless headphones(sbh20 in-the-ear headset) with all the controls is good. But I dnt need wireless ones, I need wired ones with good controls. Actually If I get only the music & call control headphone adapter which goes well with xperia z1, I will be happy. Coz I have sennheiser headphones which I can connect to it to enjoy music.

Sony Plz suggest me. I am frustrated

Unfortunately I think that the Z1 bundles are differents.

I have a MH1c headphones with Z1 and it is really fantastic about sound quality and controls.

I don't know why Sony makes different bundles...

Hi PhoneChanger...

Very kind of u to give me the link of promotional headphones....

I am from Bangalore,India. Sony unfortunately doesnt value the customers all over the world equally. I am not sure whether such offer exists for indian fans. I am certainly not happy listening to this thing.

Plz let me know if u bump across any such news abt asia or india offers!!

most people got MH750 which are rubbish - some lucky people got MH1c which are absolutly top tier headgear, some people didn't get any at all

The MH750 has a button and mic for making calls and basic control

The worst part about this whole different things in different packages is that I bought direct from Sony store in Australia which gets the worst package at the highest price. If I bought through the phone carrier its not only cheaper but they throw in a magnetic dock charger ... how is that fair ? (found this out after I bought it).

Most cases people have better headphones that the ones that come with the stock phone. I mean Apple's headphones were rubbish for years and didn't even sit in your ear properly. The headset I got had the wired connection and button to answer calls.

The MH1c are the same as MH1 except for the ground and mic connections, the MH1 are originally SE - MH1c are Sony, you can buy a cheap adaptor for the MH1 to swap the ground and mic so it will fully work on the Z1 - the (c) in the MH1c name identifies that it is CITA standard which most mobile phone companies now use for their headphone connection, you can tell the difference by the SE logo on the MH1
