Apple Vs. Google (earpods) !!!

[rupam95]

They both cost about the same and have a mic also. So which one would you prefer?

The new Apple "earpods" hurt my ears after a couple of hours. YMMV

EarPods definitly better.

Apple's EarPods aren't any better than the headset they replaced that came with iPods/iPhones for years. Not sure about Google's; but I wouldn't expect them to be much better either. Spend a little bit more and get some nice ones that will last. The Klipse S4 are very nice.

I didn't even know that Google sells earbuds.

havent tried google, but apple headphones has really high clarity and bass. coming from the old apple headphones, the earpods bass is AMAZING, i just dont like the shape of it cause it kept falling out and kinda hurts my ears too, hope they sell a cheaper in ear one then their $100

I like the apple earbuds because they're relatively cheap, good combo of sound quality and portability, have a one year warranty and the remote clicker works well enough with android. A rundown of how the apple earbud's remote works for the N4:

Can: pause/play audio (google music, pocketcasts, pandora, sticher), answer phone calls.

Can't: hang up phone calls, adjust volume, double and triple click features and pretty much anything thats unique to apple phones.

Neither, Soundmagic e10's or Sennheiser CX300ii.

To be honest, I wouldn't get either. Unless you listen to a lot of hip-hop and bass heavy music, look as some Sennheisers. They are some of the best sounding headphones out there. They don't artificially boost the bass though which seems to be very popular these days.
