I got a kz as10, great for music but not really for conference calls since the inline mic has no noise cancellation. I got myself a Samsung buds live for causal music listening + conference calls.

It's just a normal inline mic on the speaker cable, if you are speaking in a noisy environment, the other person won't be able to hear you well. On higher end earphones like the Jabras, Sony wf-1000xm3, Samsung live and a few more there's multiple mics to cancel the outside noise..

Hi bros!

am new here, not lazy to research but dk **** about earphones and not a audiophile

- Your rig: Xiaomi Max 3
- What type of usage: music or light gaming
- File format used in your source: Spotify
- Genre of music you listen to: generally any
- Headphone / earphone type: earphones
- Budget: max $100
- Requirement: very durable cables

previously bought 1More earphone on promo from Stereo, gonna say it's pretty good and their cable is made of Kevlar(?)

How is this 1more? Think to buy it too.

Any reason u changing brand instead of buying the same one?

Luv an Audio technica (wired) all along? hve u tried any earbud(wireless) of Audio Technica too?



but not tried what u recommeneded : audio technica anc100bt - i dont think this is very strong at bass (which is what ATH is gd@) ?


Not many manufacturers make earphones with noise cancellation anymore. Maybe you can consider the audio technica anc100bt, it's slightly more than $100 but there's bluetooth and a cable for wired use :s12:

You can look at
Audio Tech AD700X
Audio Tech ATHPDG1
EPOS I Sennheiser GAME ONE Gaming Headset
Philips SHP9500

Some has ext mic, some don't

But you can always invest to get a decent ext mic for better speaking quality.

I am using one from JBL - Quantum 200.
It's a gaming headphones but very useful for conference calls and meetings. I am using it for around three hours everyday.

Hmmmmmm... How about the wired ones which comes free with your smartphone (except iphones)

Actually if one side of your earpiece spoils right, is thr a fix for this?
Wire or wireless?
