Apple In-Ear headphones and BB Curve

**bmorris** · 09-10-2008, 10:14 PM

so the the new apple in-ear headphones has mic input,
would it work with a bb curve?

not sure why i would want to?

but $79 for quality (i hope) in-ear headphones as compared to $100-$300 shure brand headphones seems like a good buy.

i could use for my ipod then maybe curve?

I'm confused what you are asking exactly. But I don't see why they wouldn't work. I use my Apple headphones with my BB.

They want to know if the microphone part would work.
I honestly have no idea... good question though.

I have both the BB Curve 8310 and iPhone 3G. Curve headset broke some time ago, and I've been using the iPhone headset with both the Curve and the iPhone. iPhone headset (with microphone and click button) works well. Call quality and volume are fine - stereo works. Click to answer, click to end - haven't found a way to mute from the click button, though.

That said - I just ordered TheBoom headset, because nothing works well in my convertible. Hoping that'll do the trick.

Even though i love apple and have a macbook myself, i seriously hate the earbuds that come with the ipods.

the audio quality is extremely bad. Get any decent pair of earphones of the shelf for a decent price and they automatically trump the earbuds.

sure the earbuds look nice but the quality is really abysmal.

as for the new apple in ear phones, i hope apple has raised the bar and made them better.

They do work. I have a Blackberry Curve and I use the Apple in-ear bud to listen to music and talk at the same time.

That's what i'm driving at. Hopefully better quality for the new buds.

I'm avoiding purchasing some well-priced Shure's based on the fact that I'll be able to get the Apple In-Ears and the mic portion will work with the Storm. Can anyone else confirm this?!?!?!??

I believe the the page that tells about the in ear headphones tells what they are compatible with? I remember seeing it somewhere. I was just looking over them yesterday.

edit:
Well, my bad. It only talks about apple products its compatible with.

Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic - Apple Store (U.S.)

Those look nice...
Maybe go to a mac store and ask them to try....
I'll see if I can do it this week and ask...
