Just asking, comparing 4R and UM3X which would serve better? I read some reviews saying UM3X, while some say 4R. Kinda undecided abt tis.
It will depend on the song and your personal preference. For instance for my case, I didn't like the UM3X as I found the bass to strong to my liking. The 4R have a wider soundstage which I prefer.

What do you mean by wider soundstage? If I prefer to go for clearer lyrics?

I tried both on the same day lol.

What's your budget?

Im alright to either pay for a 4R or UM3X.

- Genre of music you listen to : Electronic mainly and other mainstream music

You can consider the Ultimate Ears 600vi, used it before and the clarity and noise isolation is very good. But the remote control may not be 100% compatible with the HTC One.
