In ear earphone or bluetooth headphone for use in mobile/laptop??

Dear friends,

I had been using a Byte bluetooth headset for listening to music and watching movies (from Blackberry bold 9900 mobile and Dell XPS laptop). Thanks to God the headset is not working properly anymore. I am looking for another one and seeking your help in this regard.

USAGE- Listening to songs and watching movies from Blackebrry bold 9900 mobile and Dell XPS laptop. I don't have any hifi audio system like amplifiers and all. I may be using while on road. So please suggest me either a in ear earphone or a bluetooth headset. Th in ear earphone should have an angular connection (90 degree angle between cord and the 3.5 mm metal part/jack that goes into the phone/laptop) as my mobile has a hole at its side. SORRY for the non-technical language as I am not at all an expert (rather a newbie).

BUDGET- $ 100 - 200 (May add few more bucks if product is too good)
Please help me by clearing following doubts.

1. Which one will provide better sound quality: An in ear earphone or a bluetooth headset?

2. Please suggest brand and model names also as per the price range.

3. Once I had Creative EP 630 in ear earphones and they used to fit properly to my ears. Considering this could you plz advice if the Ultimate Ears triple fi10 would fit to my ears (I am asking this as I have heard that UE tf10 has some fitting issues)?

4. I am thinking of purchasing either a sennheiser bluetooth headphone or an ultimate ears in ear earphone.

Looking forward to your valuable suggestions,

Thanking you in advance..

Bij.

The IEMs will sound better than Bluetooth headphones and i will recommend to try Sony EX7550, JVC FXT90, Yamaha EPH100, Etymotic HF5.

Well, Thanks for your 2nd replytongue_smile.gif

 

Could you please provide some comments regarding using an ultimate ears triple fi 10 with a laptop or mobile?

As I will be using it while on car or office I won't be having any amplifier to connect. So, considering this will it be a waste of money or still its worth listening using tf10 ???

 

Thanking you once again for your valuable advice.

:)
