Headphones for Nexus 5

Re: Headphones for nexus 5

I would have to recommend the LG Electronics Tone+ HBS-730 Bluetooth Headset. The sound is decent, comes in white or black and is very comfortable, it is about $40

If you want to customize the functions of the in-line controls, you might want to consider buying the app 'Headset button controller'.

Yours sincerely,

I just noticed this too and am pretty excited about it! Totally wasn't expecting the controls to work since they didn't for my Nexus 4.

That's great because I just ordered some for 40 bucks on Microsoft Store.com couldn't pass that up

FWIW, Wirecutter recommends the new Panasonic Ergo Fits.

I recommend the Klipsch s4 ear buds. They're available both with or without an inline mic. I've had two pair and the sound quality is awesome. They even have a rugged version.

I have them as well and coming off of using them with my old Galaxy Nexus they really shine on this phone!

Its becoming more and more common to not include the crappy headphones that used to come as an accessory to the phones. They're so bad that it's almost a good thing that they leave them out as it may force you to actually spend $10-$20 on something that will be far better than what they included. I know not everyone agrees with that but it is what it is.

Hi There so all of the Klipsch 4s work on nexus 5 including volume control?

Your mileage may vary. I'd suspect that most 3-ring 3.5mm earphones/headphones would work precisely as prescribed.

If you want to be able to control the volume from the headphones you'll need headphones made for smartphones (w/3-ring 3.5mm minijack). Regular headphones may give you better audio but you may lose the ability to control volume etc. from the headphone cable.

Re: Headphones for nexus 5

Yes I am aware of that but I need earphones that will fit under helmet, be noise suppressors and have all remote options. I cant try them on when they are in sealed boxes online or in-store so dont know if the volume control will work and whether they have a good sound or not. And for that matter nearly all in-store ones are Iphone these days.

So it sounds like you'll have to actually purchase them to try them.

I also use the Apple Pods and they do sound real good, I wish we could use the click buttons. I am not able to.

The Klipsch S4A works with Android. There is a Klipsch app in the Play Store that you download. It works on my wife's SIII. These have a patented ear cup shape that no one has. My wife says these are the most comfortable in-ear headphones she has ever used; including my expensive Shure headphones. I have listened to them and I will be getting me a pair if mine ever fail. Kohls actually sells them now in the accessories area; $89.
