Best earphones/headphones for Nokia 5530 XpressMusic

Earlier we used to have 2.5 mm audio jack in most of the Nokia Smartphones.It restricts the usage of high quality earphones compatible with MP3 Player and PC.But now cellphones with standard 3.5 mm headphone jack are becoming quite common.So,why not utilize this cool feature and plug in the best earphones/headphones around there and get the most out of our cellphone’s music player.
I have selected the best portable earphones/headphones under $100 for 5530 Xpress Music.These are the world’s most popular portable budget earphones/headphones your money can buy.Many of you may be already familiar with these names.Choose any of these and you won’t regret.They are in no specific order.

  1. Hi,

    creative earphones are good, but do these have mic too in it ??. I was looking for this kinda earphone w/mic builtin… which brand has this ?? let me know

  2. Hi,Hanu
    I’m sorry but none of the creative earphones have built-in mic.
    As most of the high quality earphones are designed for MP3 Players such as ipod,they don’t have mic in it.
    I you need them with mic then check the accessories provided by your cellphone manufacturer.

  4. [...] audio quality through noise isolating earphones in the sales package.It also includes standard 3.5 mm jack to plug in you own earphones. There is no such provision in Samsung Star.You can play full length DVD movies in .avi format on [...]

  5. I’m liking the Koss Ksc75. Nice how it folds in on itself for easy portability but best of all is the way the wires seem to be retractable too. My headphone wires always look like a bowl of spaghetti and it take me 5 minutes to unwind them before I can get any use. And at 14 bucks…what a price.

  6. Hi, I have a Nokia N97. I have already bought replacement earbuds -Sony MDREX76, but still not happy. The sound is good, but not great volume. I am not hard of hearing by the way. Is there a decent set of earbuds/phones out there that will improve the output, apart from using amps, etc ..

  7. I’ve used Creative EP-630 with my N82 and I’m impressed.Even at 80% volume it is loud.

  8. Hi, is my headset just defective or the button where the mic is really can’t be used to change tracks/radio stations? Thanks!

  9. hey i’m a fan off Lady Gaga’s new headphones ‘ Heartbeats ‘ do you think it’ll work?? THX . . . .

  10. the nokia 5530 digitally changes sound and extracts the best bits. When i put other earphones in the sound is muffled.

  11. Hi everyone

  12. Sennheiser will be a good option

  13. Thanks Naveen R for the reply

    can u tell me where i can buy those earphones from, either Sennheiser or Creative, there is no outlet or store of these two where i live.

  14. hi… good work on the review of these… now i’m interested which one of these headphones are loud. i own the 5530 and i bought a spare philips earphone which works good but i am not satisfied with how much weaker it’s volume is compare to the in-ear earphone that came with the 5530. i like to listen to music while I commute to work and back. dilemma is while i’m comfortable wearing the philips, outside(traffic, horns, like) noise getsin, the nokia headset that came with the phone can cancel that noise because of its in-ear function but its is very uncomfortable to wear for the same reason. any suggestions for a loud enough headphone for me? thanks.

  15. i want to buy best 3.5mm earphone with mic for nokia phones, i have creative EP630 earphones, but these are without mic, i have nokia 5800 express music phone, can anybody suggest any earphone(with mic) available in indian market having sound quality like my creative EP630.

  16. hi! is the beats headphone by dr. dre compatible with nokia 5800 expressmusic?
