Headphones!

Mods.. feel free to move this to the correct forum if its in the wrong spot!

I currently have the Sprint Diamond and it came with the set of HTC head phones.. Well I extremely dislike the length, the wrap around head piece, everything about it i just really hate!

As well as the adapter for the 3.5mm jack.. it makes the phone wayyy to bulky and awkward.

So I was just looking for feedback as to people who have found a headset that works well such as a plug in with mini usb that is about the length of iphone headphones or even a bluetooth headset for both ears. Links would be great! I am not really interested in using it for a phone per say but more along the lines of listening to music while walking, at the gym, on the bus, etc.

Thanks!!

i have the pro so i'm not sure, but didn't your diamond come with an adapter with a 3.5mm port?

Yeah it came with one... but its very awkward when its in the case or in pocket I just want one that plugs either straight into the phone or bluetooth

bluetooth-wise, i use the plantronics 590 series. you can score a new pair on ebay. i have a pair of moto s9s but frankly they stink.

Also, if you want to go wired, Seidio has an adapter that isn't bulky like the one that came with the phone.

Yeah I was looking at that.. looks a lot more promising and pretty close to what I want! Thanks

Will any mini usb work with the diamond?

Thanks for the input!

How was the battery life on both the head set and the phone when using them??

I also use the Moto S9-HD's, they work great as long as you stay indoors, battery life is about 3-5 hours.
