Z1c compatible earbuds

ergo — Mon, 16 Jun 2014 10:57:24 GMT

Hi!

Does anyone use earbuds with volume control, mediaplayer previous/next track control and they should be cheaper than 100€ euro. I am trying to find right one but they either do not comply or are meant for iPhone + I have heard the Z1c is very picky on headphones... I do not know if those rumors are true.

OK. After a lot of research I think, I found almost perfect set. They look nice and are inexpencive.

HTC RC E240

They are almost perfect since I do not know if I can change tracks from its remote control.

Any experiences with those or has any other suggestions?

I wouldn't buy unless i could try them. Apparently not all the headphones work properly with Z1C

Check my experience with JBL headphones

Thanks for warning, but I was too tired from searching and already ordered these. I will let you know if they work.

I have received those.

Pros:

Volume buttons and next track button seems to work with Walkman.

Sound is good for my untrained ear.

For 15$ they are OK

Could be useful as an extra pair into backbag or car.

Cons:

Remote is too close to ear.

When walking and wires are hitting against clothes, I can hear that sound into ear.

One of earbuds keeps falling out of my ear, but I have not tried other sizes yet.

Feels cheap.

Thanks for the update.

I boguht myself a pair of a-jays-five for about $90 and they are (just) OK... They too have pretty annoying cable noise, so I won't worry :smileysmileythumbsup:
