OMG! my iphone headphone got damaged!

Vinpin · 5th May 2008, 20:26

Look, my only iphone headphone I had, is now damage, knowing that its hard to get a spare one gives me a panic attack. anyone experience this?

I wouldn't blame Apple of California for its design. It must be Chinese screw-up.

Any ideas when is iphone launching in UAE?

If they are working, they won't be for long.
What happened to them?

I found some unbranded headphones in Mall of the Emirates.
In Virgin it was for about 85 Dhs.
No idea how they sound or what works.
You can go for a bluetooth or get an Apple headphone from the US.

go for the new version of senheisser mx 500 for ipod...white, good sound as well.

for a good expensive ones, go for bose earbuds.

Wow! I like the recommendations of all of you guys. I wish I could just drop in to istyle Abu Dhabi mall and pick up one. unfortunately they don't have any. Good at least they had one iphone cover-case from Griffin.

they dont have iPhone headsphones newhere
and if u wna buy headphones wihtout the mic, i would recommend sennheiser CX95s, they're very very very good, with noise-isolation... not too expensive either, and a very decent set of ears... i lukd@the v-moda ones on amazon, the ones tht venky suggested, but they luk like phones made out of bullet-shells... but u'll need the headphone adapter none-the-less

The ones I found have a mic and remote for the iPhone.
I also found some in Sharaf DG.

Both are not brand names.
