If u really want to experience the superior audio the V10 has to offer, use a very nice set of wired headphones. U can IMMEDIATELY tell the difference in audio quality once the HiFi is switched on.
When it comes to gaming, I don't do intense gaming on mine. I play casual games like Clash of Clans or something. I experience no lag. Battery life does suck in some cases. I've noticed that since I uninstalled facebook, my battery is amazing now. Easily lasts all day.

The only game I play is respawnable and some roms on mame, no lags by far.
The audio quality is best with wired headphones. I use a Lg Bluetooth Headphone and for me sounds good.
Battery life on this device it depends on how you use it, it seems you're a super heavy user, maybe the battery is going to be a problem for you unless you have the time to plug the charger for 15-20 min. twice a day...
Desde V10 (LG-H901)

is Bluetooth set work HiFi or only wired one

mp3 player on Hero?

I am considering if I should get hero or not.
Before I make my decision, I would like to know how the mp3 player is like on Hero because I want to replace my mp3 player with the phone.
I've used HTC Diamond before and I was very dissapointed because with the earphone they gave me, the sound quality was horrible (the usb cable) and the battery life on that device is pretty bad I'd say. Lastly, the external speaker was extremely bad compared to other devices such as Iphone 3G or sonny ericsson devices. I guess HTC doesn't make a good speaker? I'm worried since this is another HTC device so could you guys give me your opinion about the mp3 player on Hero?
1. Battery life when using mp3 player
2. sound quality through headphones and the external speaker (quality and volume wise)
3. mp3 player
Thanks in advance!
Only had mine a few days after coming from the HTC Magic so I do compare the 2 quite a lot, but here goes:
1. Battery life on the phone is pretty good for a smart phone and it has a better battery then the Magic, you should be able to easily get a full days use while listening to say 3-4 hours of music.
2. Firstly if you plan to use this as your MP3 player then I would ditch the supplied headphones and invest in a decent pair. This usually applies to all headphones that are bundled with devices though. The headphones you get with it are ok, but sound a bit tinny and if you like your music clear and bassy like me then you'll want a better pair. Some people don't like the sound the Hero outputs through the headphones, again with a decent pair I have to say I am pretty impressed and more then pleased. Volume is good through the headphones.
I don't usually play music through the speakers as I'm not one of those annoying little twats that sits on the bus playing his music for the whole world to hear but the sound quality is ok through the speakers. It loses quality obviously the more you turn it up and depending what your playing. Basically it's fine for a phone but you wouldn't want to play music to a group of friends for too long through the speaker.
3. The default MP3 player in my opinion is fine, does the job well enough though there is no equaliser. Some people downloads different players from the market but I personally think the installed one is more then adequate.
Thanks for the quick and descriptive response!
I'm not sure if Hero is the phone I'm looking for.
The new Android OS sure does look sleek and refreshing.
Anybody know a good smartphone that comes with:
1. a nice mp3 player
2. good battery life (2-3 days at least with more than average usage)
3. nice and many applications
4. and 3.5mm headphone jack
I have been researching so much but I can't find the right one for me.
-Iphone's great but it seems too common around me.
-palm pre has a very short battery life I hear?
-Sonny Erricson's X1.. kind of outdated
I'm quite excited to see the new xperia.
I think Erricson makes great devices (mp3 player, external speaker, long lasting battery and etc). But does anybody know if the device comes with dual touch?
It is a bit off topic but I need help lol.
From experience of multiple smartphones, to get 2-3 days above average use you are probably going to have to get a phone which has a higher capacity battery available, but then these are usually 3rd party and require a different back to cope with the increased battery size. I tend to get about 2 days usage but a lot depends on how strong a data connection I have.
In practice I have used many WinMo phones and the Hero. Both have good MP3 players available with my current favourites being Nitrogen for WinMo and Meridian for Android.
Nokia E52 has small form factor and good mp3-player, and WAY better battery life than Iphone, any htc or winmobile

Any bluetooth headset recomment?

Hi,
I'm thinking to buy a bluetooth headset, any one can suggest me one? Battery life is my main concern.
Thanks
i use a nokia one, last me a good 2 days
I have tried alot of headsets since they first came out and all i can say is dont buy a cheap one, I have had the cheap, the medium priced and the highend headsets and I can tell you that the only ones i keep are the high end ones. Right now I have the Plantronics Discovery 975 and I love it. Its really light wieght I wear it mostly all day and i sometimes have to touch my ear to make sure its still there, thankfully it always is because it never falls off. It comes with a really convenient case that can charge it fully three times with one charge which means if I charge the case and the headset together to full charge I dont have to charge either for about four or five days. Great buy in my book and well worth the money
nokia bh 104 cheap'n'good
I use the Jabra BT4080.
Small, light, CHEAP, and has A2DP for listening to music.
i use a motorola one
Jabra BT3030 works good

A few months back I bought a Iqua Sun for about 50 euros (70 bucks), here is a link to the official site:
http://www.iqua.com/products_sub.php?navi_id=1476
I am extremely satisfied with the photovoltaic cells, whenever i get home i leave the headset near a window when it can get sunlight and that's all. In four months of moderate usage (20-30 minutes every day on average) i've only had to recharge the battery (via mini usb, perfect) twice . Of course it works with the Hero . I can't speculate on the extent of solar power charging on daily heavy usage , but if you don't need it beacuse of your work and simply use it when you are driving etc etc imho this is perfect.
I can vouch for my Altec Lansing Backbeat 903 A2DP headphones..what's nice is that they offer noise canceling and music streaming capabilities..and the microphone is out of sight yet accurate when you're talking. I've found them to be very comfortable when using them at the gym and just having them on all day. =D link to site
2 words - Jabra BT530
This is an amazing earpiece that filters background noise, AND can be connected to 2 phones simultaniously
Works like a charm, and fits perfectly in the ear(more ear pieces are enclosed so you can choose the best one)
I can wear mine for hours a day, and not even notice i have it "on"
/Smirge
Jabra BT2020 works well with the hero, clear sound and overall very good
There's only one headset i've tried that's good enough and that's Sennheisers VMX100.
Everyone in our company has one of those and save for a few minor problems, mostly related to generic bluetooth problems and the rest probably related to heavy usage, we havn't had any problems at all using a bunch of WM versions, stock android 1.5, iphone and sonyericsson.
Don't mind people talking about problems pairing it with Windows Mobile, my hero didnt even ask for a pass code.
I use the nokia bh-905 on a daily basis. I am really happy with the features (BT+A2DP+sound cancelation+microphone)
I use Sony-Ericsson stereo one: SDK-MW600, You can pair up to 3 devices, it works well with hero, with GB it even show name of song, calling nr. Quality of sound is very nice. And also long battery life.

Music Capabilities on X10 Mini (esp. vs iPod)

Anyone any idea? Both in terms of hard facts and your own personal opinion? Is this gadget good enough to replace your iPod?
I've always been a happy iPodder. I just ended my multiple Nanos for the Classic particularly because of the fantastic battery, ability to take lossless well and extra storage. But this damn Classic keeps deleting everything and freezing. And the size just kills me. I actually can't put it in any pocket without it being summoned by gravity. Wreaks my head.
So how does are little baby compare? I have to say I've been very impressed with the sound on this phone, and if you use POWERAMP, it dramatically improves the sound capabilities, it is irreplaceable. However, the battery on our phone isn't the best, and maybe it couldn't handle the responsibility as DJ?
Battery life is about 9-10hrs using Music....
So i guess an iPod is much better than this
I am more than satisfied with the X10 Mini as a music player.
Using the PowerAMP and Spotify (an Internet music streaming service available in some countries, Sweden for one).
Connecting the Mini with the home stereo as well as using it's built in speaker, when showering (as an example).
Outside, at work and in the car, am I using a Samsung SBH650 Bluetooth Stereo headset.
Filled up the 16GB mSD card with just above 10GB of music without even having the iTunes installed on the comp
Not knowing what special demands a DJ needs, though
good playback quality small and lightweight are it plus but its qons is the small battery life

in which universe; 4 hours max is all i get from my mini
For me 1 hr means 10% decrease... So i have projected a 8-9hrs backup... You may try and check

Xperia S is a great MP3 player!

From playing around with my Xperia I noticed that it had a great looking music player, so I thought I'd give it a proper spin today. I've been on the lookout for something to replace my old Creative Zen for a while and I must say, I'm very impressed.
I wouldn't call myself a full-blown audiophile but I'm definitely quite fussy about sound quality. I was initially quite surprised at how good the Xperia S sounded, but didn't quite believe it at first because I've never had a good experience with mobile phone audio. However, having just tested it against my Zen, I can confirm that it sounds very good indeed.
There is perhaps slightly more hiss on the Xperia (only audible at high volumes), but the bass in particular sounds a lot deeper and more detailed, and I'm also starting to notice other little details of the music in the background - always a sign of a good audio player.
Better still, it supports gapless playback, which is something that very few media players seem to have.
Anyone else using their Xperia for music?
I really think they missed a trick though. The should of supplied the phones with decent headphones like they use to.

By the time they release their LiveSound they'll properly add it to their latest shipments
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
I think it's because the eq. curve is quite flat(so you can hear more detail, because all frequencies have the same intensity), and the impedance is high (so less level pressure and more dinamic)
Remember sony is one of the best home audio constructor
Which independance do you mean?

i got the live sound smart headset with xperia s.... i bought mine the first week the phone was released in the UK.
How does the battery do when playing MP3? The reason I've never really used my phone for music is because the battery already struggles to make it through the day, so playing MP3s through it as well just makes things worse.

Not a big hit, really! The big hit comes from me fiddling with the display all the time to switch tracks

Depends, if you stress the amp with high impedance headphones you'll have battery issues, but normal buds it wont be a problem.
The sound quality compared to my Cowon i5 mp3 player is very dull!
Cowon has a nice sound output, but telling it is VERY dull is a bit over the top ...
sony devices always have a clear output also when there is a lot of bass the higher tones do not get lost.
Its not over the top, I tell it how I hear it.
Tried it with cheap-ish Klipsch in ear buds, over ear Sennheiser HD 25-1 II & Grado SR60.
I wanted the phone to perform I have no reason not to but unfortunately it doesn't compare.
I have a set of PXC 250-II with noise reduction ( bass is enhanced ) the phones sounds very good...
better then may desire ?
Yes.
Better then an Ithingy ...
Yes.
I do suffer bad battery life .

Most likely the drain is caused by the EQ.
Pity most headphones only come with specialised controllers for iSomething and not Android devices
I dont think the drain is the EQ. I've tested it with three players and its pretty clear that the drain is the headphones.
This is a mobile phone, most people will be using Earphones or small consumer headphones. As such the amplifier in the phone is designed to power such things. If you plug in larger headphones which take far more power to operate(4mm driver at 150ohm vs 40mm driver at 300Ohm!) you will see a battery drain.
I use CX-300II's when I'm out and about and they're a great mix of value/sound quality/power consumption. Worth checking out.
I've had the cx300 II's. While they sound good they broke fairly quick. I think after about 5 months use or so. Problem was with the cable.

3rd set, so yeah. But they've lasted longer than any other pair I have used. The cable is thinner than most but far stronger than many other brands.
I have noticed some definite battery drainage when using the MP3 player, but definitely nowhere near as fast as when doing something with the screen.
Having said that, the music player is so pretty I keep finding myself fiddling around with it, and I'm also experimenting a lot with EQs.
I have no doubt a Cowon player does sound better. I may actually buy one if I fill up my phone. But the Xperia still sounds a lot better than my old Creative Zen, and that until recently still managed to beat any other MP3 playing device I'd listened to, including the iPhone 4S.
I dont think its a very good music player. Before i get a text the music will skip. Also sometimes when the phone is playing music and asleep, when i go back in a open an app the player will skip. Not the best

FYI - Found Bluetooth Headphones that were 30 euros, has A2DP and bluetooth 4.0

Hi all,
I live in Germany and saw that the local Aldi's (grocery/mini walmart store) had some bluetooth headphones on sale. They were 30 euros so about 35 US dollars. Decided to give them a try since I thought 30 euros wasn't bad. I'm really surprised how good they are. I have LG+ Tone 700 and these are pretty comparable. This also has A2DP and uses bluetooth 4.0. It paired quickly with the note 3 and got it up and running with no hitches. The sound quality is good. I'm going to give them more of a trial run later.
They also charged extremely fast at only 2 hours. Run time it says is about 4 hours but if the recharge time is that small, I don't see a big deal with it being shorter time for the charge to last. They have a 3 year guarantee and it's USB chargeable only but I'm sure you can find an normal adapter if you wanted the wall plug. To charge the headphones, it's kind of funky. It's like a clip to some small prongs. Not a normal microusb charger. The controller on it is pretty small and you need to like mash on the buttons a little but it seems to be alright for normal use. They're really light and have only the headphone wire which I like because the neck loop on the LG sometimes is irritating for me.
Anyhow, thought you all might want to check it out for those who live near an Aldi's in Europe or in Germany. The manufacturer is Maginon, model BTH-100. I think it's probably a no name but I'm not sure of products here.
here's the german link. Not much info but enough: http://www.supra-electronics.com/typo3/?id=119&tx_oid=685&L=0
long term use
Hi Kamfl610,
Thanks for the short review. I just run into this and I would like to ask if you opinion changed after a longer use? You are using it for almost 2 months now.
Thanks

I'm interested about feed backs. Wanna share? Thanks!
I too had a pair of LG Tone 700, and due to how much I used them, one of the wires to the earbud shorted out. I replaced my set with the LG Tone 730 (the newer model), I gotta say, I love those even more!
I do have to add, however, that as far as I know, the HBS-700 model uses bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, not 4.0. The 730 model uses bluetooth 3.0, which isn't bad, but that's not 4.0. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3-oUPLWaNGNN0p4NEs2OEJkalk/edit?usp=sharing
I do suggest paying the difference and getting the LG HBS 730 instead of the 700. The battery seems to last longer as compared to the 700s I had, and I like that fact that it tells me if the battery is high, medium, or low when I turn it on (as the old set did not do).

Hi all,
Meant to reply to this. I took them out for a longer run. The sound quality is still decent for 30 euros but how far away the phone had to be away from the headphones is not very far. I started getting a little static and some stuttering quality when i had the phone down in my bag. Along with that, when the phone was kind of bumping against me, I was getting gaps in the sound from the headphones and my music. I find this kind of not a good thing. If you want something cheap and just for daily use (no running with them or heavy exercise) and you can keep the phone close, it's not bad. I've gone back to LG tone +700 again. The 730's are too expensive right now in Germany and I don't even see the 800 model yet. I tried also the Delycons because they were 50 euros and i saw decent reviews on Amazon for them and I was disappointed with them. They were similar in style to the 30 euro ones but were suppose to have good sound. I didn't find that. I normally use PowerAmp Player but the bass was so muddy in the Delycons that I had to go to the Google Music player to even out the sounds. That seemed totally wrong to me so I sent them back. I'm going to use the 700's for awhile because I haven't found anything that remotely meets the same specs and sound quality. I just wish it didn't have the neckband. Anyhow, that's just my view.
