my daughter has went through loads of cheap head phones for her blackberry and I want to buy her ones that last but are not too expensive.
Can anyone recommend ?

I would recommend the cheap ones, what makes you think decent ones will last any longer? If she's anything like my teenage lad then they will get a lot of abuse.4 Stones and 0 pounds or 25.4kg lighter :j0

Sennheiser cx200s or cx300s are well-built and last a while for £20 or so.
No idea what they sound like, though.I shot a vein in my neck and coughed up a Quaalude.

I purchased a set of Denon AHC260 In Ear Headphones - Silver, from Amazon, currently £19.95
Excellent sound quality, comfortable in use and for a good price.
Good luck.0 -
Depends how old your daughter is and how much she values her possesions!
If you do go for the sennheisers make sure you buy GENUINE ones. There are lots of sites that sell very poor quality rip offs. (amazon market place being one)Thanks to those that post the comps!!

I didn't actually state how old my daughter is! Actually she is very good with her headphones, but they are cheap ones so thought i would invest in a set of better quality ones.
If you have nothing constructive to say, please refrain from commenting, thanks !0 -
I swear by Skullcandy but they're about £30 (for the in-ear ones, that is. My headphones were about £40!) Great sound quality and build though.2019 Wins

Would these be on-ear, over-ear, in-ear or jammed-into-the-ear 'phones? Any preference at all?0
