Best iPhone earphones

I've had a few Sennheiser mm50s over the last few months from eBay.
Problem is that they seem to break quite easily (after one month's use).
Does anyone know where I can get quality earphones (with a microphone) for a good price?

    You probabley don't want a microphone they don't tend to work to well. I use a pair of Soundwise G4 with my phone and they work really well. I just speak to phone and it works fine. I don't even need the phone near mouth.

    Play.com or Amazon is the best bet, Sennheisers are quite pricey anyway but at least if you buy from the likes of these retailers you have 1 years warranty

    I bought 2 on Amazon and sent them back as they failed within a month.
    I take it you both bought from Amazon and not from the sellers on Amazon.

    Which other earphones are decent besides the one I mentioned?

    No I have bought from both but I never buy unless there have been reviews

    Both Amazon and Play have been found to be selling fakes(sometimes). If you read the small print they handel the sale but are not the seller. Really its no diffrent to ebay. I was going to go for Sennheiser but then read lots of stuff about fakes. I was looking for info on how to avoid fakes when I saw and article about a Company called Soundwise who make a model that is very similar to Sennheiser cx300, although has a slightly better driver (the speaker thing). If you google fake cx300 and soundwise t4
    you will prob find information.

    All retailers MUST give you a 1 year warranty some give you 2. I have 2 years with mine

    In my opinion always buy from smaller companies they care much more about there reputation.
  • Can anyone confirm if this is a genuine site
