Hello,
 
I first posted my topic in a wrong forum, but I think here is the good place to ask my question.
 
For a while I've been looking for a headset for my smartphone (not an iPhone, but Android... and soon Windows Phone).
The problem is that most headsets are in-ear's and I don't want those because I don't like them.
 
Now I'm looking for a Headset that doesn't cost more than +/- €30,- .. The only headset I found was from AKG (K318), and it costed €39,- while I've read that the quality is not worth the money. And the box says that it is made for iPhone. (Don't know if there is any difference in it).
 
So I'm looking for a headset, with volume control and a Mic, with a good price/quality ratio. Does anyone here have any good advice?
 Thanks in advance,
 
Best Regards

Hello,
 
Thanks for your tip, but the Sony you mentioned is a in-ear model.:

I'm looking for a earbud model.:

I gave up the searching for a particular earbud headset with volumecontrol and a mic.
Only brands I know are: Sony, AKG, Sennheiser, Philips, Shure & Bose.
 
Now I found this: http://www.pdamax.de/fotos/nz-250.jpg
 
And then i'm planning to buy a good earbud headset (without volumecontrol or mic) to plug it in.
Does anyone have any experience with the above Nokia controller or advice for a better one?
And does anyone knows good earphones with a good price/quality ratio?
I'm looking at an AKG K315, is this considered to be a good buy?
