I just got my second pair of that exact same model in the mail, today. The first did not survive the 3rd time through the wash. They are the suggested low cost ear buds on thewirecutter.com.

Edit. Woops, these are the ones I got. Very similar: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00E4LGVUO/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?ref_=pe_385040_30332190_TE_3p_dp_1

Most headphones also have a microphone. This is just one example. If you have one, plug it into your phone and make a call just to test.
You won't be allowed to use the headphone during the test, but I think you can use the microphone.

Thank you all for the recommendations! I've added them to my wish list and will try each as the former ones die.

Here's some more info on what I'm looking for from a previous post that got down voted-

I liked the AKG braided cable feel a lot. Eventually they broke and I used the S7 headphones which I loved but I had to buy in packs of 3 since I broke them every couple weeks. The 'wing anti slip sport hook' silicon tips were extra awesome and I prefer that style-

Eventually those ran out and I read in a thread that these Panasonic in ear buds were good and tried those, which worked for a while but had Meh build quality.

I've got these taotronics Bluetooth wireless ones that I hardly used that I need to actually get used to charging - but might get the single airpod style off brand bud that are selling for $20 just to avoid the wires-

The most Infuriating thing and my biggest complaint is my wires getting caught in random shit and being ripped out of my ears. I essentially listen to no music, and only listen to podcasts and NPR and YouTube.

So-

  • better build quality, harder to break than S7 ones

  • good at staying in ear like the s7 winged style

  • braided or just less tangle prone wire like AKG stock ones

  • good for podcasts, not necessarily high quality for music

What would you recommend? Under $30 if wireless

Also the latter question.

Sorry for the wall
