I'm soon to buy a Samsung YP-T9 (a bluetooth enabled MP3 player) and would like to know you guys opinions on a decent pair of ear/headphones. Ideally I'd like some earbuds since I think they're the most comfortable but I don't think they exist yet

So what are you guys using? Either with your own MP3 player or with your PC.

I haI had the same question just recently. I did a little research and read some users
reviews and just ordered the motorola motorokr s9. I ordered it for the following
reasons: I want it mostly for running and these things look perfect and users on
amazon and newegg said they are good for running. Users also said that they sound
good. They are cool looking and I trust motorola for bluetooth devices. I am supposed to recieve them on wensday so ill let you know what i think of them

[Steve Juneau]

Hmm, they look pretty cool but the fact that they're endorsed by Beckham puts me off them somewhat

Let me know what you think though, they're the best I've seen so far regardless of Beckham.

[Greatbam]

Here's a video review to let you know more about them. It's a pretty decent review.

Oooh I did not know about those buttons on the side. That's definitely sold it for me. They're pretty cheap, I saw some on eBay for only £25 (around $50) which is damn reasonable for what you're buying.

Thanks Bam, these are the ones for me

[Greatbam]

Yeah I had to search a few websites(newegg, amazon, motorola, google) to figure out about the buttons. I thought these websites would've had specific pictures showing the buttons but they don't. That video is the only real place that I actually found out about the buttons.

[Steve Juneau]

Wow, really? I'd figure that something like that they'd make a song and dance about. Not that's it's anything amazing or new or anything, but it's a cool little feature nonetheless.

[Greatbam]

So my Motorola S9 Motorokr headphones came yesterday. I am very impressed so far with them. They are EXTREMELY light. I put them on and can barely notice they are on my head. They sounds very good too.

[Steve Juneau]

Sweet, what have you hooked them up to? They don't pinch your ears do they?

[Greatbam]

No they don't pinch my ears they have been really comfortable so far. I wore them walking to school today and they sounded pretty good. I kind of thought I was getting some static with them but I dunno if it was the phone's fault or my headphones.

I tried moving my phone from my pocket to an upper jacket pocket and I think it made some difference but I can't tell for sure. I have to test it some more. I read a customer review of some dude in New York getting some interference too but like nothing really significant. I still need to test these while running on the treadmill.

I also bought this jabra universal bluetooth adapter for 40$ so I am not too worried right now about a little static. I kind of think the jabra device will fix that problem if it is a problem. I bought the universal thing because I want to be able to use these headphones with my mp3 player or anything with a stereo jack.

This is what one of the users on amazon said about the Jabra bluetooth adapater: "This little device works nicely with my bluetooth earphones and I can get a good 30 feet away from it before it drops out."

sooo Yeah I've had a little static but I haven't really noticed it indoors just outdoors so far. I'm about to go out and about in just a few minutes so i'll keep you updated with what happens.

I have a pair of s9s and i like them, the sound good and have a good response time (meaning there is very little lag between what you hear and press and movie audio is synced.

[Steve Juneau]

All sounding good to me, thanks for your input Shane

One last question though - What's the battery life like? How long will they work on one full charge? I read somewhere that it's only 6hrs which is kinda shit really.

[ivwshane]

They lasted about that but I've never listened to music or watched a movie longer than that.

[Steve Juneau]

Eek. I guess I'll have to take the normal headphones with me then when I'm travelling.

I've decided against the Samsung YP-T9 and am gonna get the YP-P2 instead. Apparantly it's the iPod Touch beater! Anyone have any experience with it?

i've seen many in ebay, are those really original? i'm afraid they are just a cheap copy :/

how good (or bad) do they work with the PC?

[Greatbam]

I paid 70$ for mine so I think it's possible that he could be getting a new pair off of ebay for 50$.

[Steve Juneau]

I just bought a Samsung YP-P2 8gb with a Motorola S9 headset off eBay for £170. Someone obviously had the same idea as me and bought them together so is now selling them together. Should arrive by tomorrow hopefully. I'll hit y'all up with my review after a day of using. Well excited! The Samsung is meant to shit all over the new iPod Touch!
