iPhone headphones are iGay

[RevoGLI]

So this is for the iPhone mkv-er's:

I have a 3GS which I got in December to replace my old original iPhone.
I've noticed that whenever I have my phone in my pocket and I am
walking an listening to music, I hear this popping and crackling sound with each step.
However, when I hold it, it goes away. I know it has something to do with
tension on the cord, but can anyone actually explain what's going on.

I've also been shocked too. I heard that its the actual headphones themselves, wtf mate?

I've had nothing but problems with Apple earbuds. Between my girl and I we've gone through 6 pairs over the last 5 years - no joke.

I know you will lose the mic for the phone, but look into getting some better buds. From what I've read, the noise from the cord is very hard (and expensive) to get rid of.

Cord? I walk around work with my Motorola bluetooth headphones on and my Blackjack on my desk and never hear anything but crystal clear music. :iono:

Like 100 feet away, through walls.

The traditional iPhone headphones (the white ones) with the mic and volume click controls.

I hate my apple ear buds. They lack low end and get tinny when they are turned up. I got this replacement pair made by v-moda and they kicked ass. I recommend those.

If you liked the included headphones why would you ever buy the higher end ones?

V moda is what we try to sell people at radio shack. They have really good sound for 30$.
