Help me with earbuds
My current earbuds broke, they were the ones that came with the HTC One M7.
I'm between Skullcandy Ink'd 2 and JVC HA-FR201. They both cost the same.

I have $10 Wal-Mart ones and they work great.
I had my Skullcandy Ink'd 2 for 2 years now. Still works fine, dood.
For $5, you can get a radio mic earpiece, it works with phones/mp3 players, it comes with a collar clip so it won't be loose among your shirt, and you'll look like an secret agent.
i use the same ones as enoch, the rock zircons
this site was pretty helpful to me

I personally like and use Ink'd 2. Nice quality, comfortable, all that.
BEST PART.. I'm super clumsy, that said.. All Skullcandy products come with a free manufacture's warranty (if you live in US and CA). Depending how they break you either get 50% off the next, or basically brand new ones for free. However, because I get mine at BestBuy, and pay for BestBuy's $5 two year warranty- it doesn't matter how I break them they always give a completely new pair. Buy another $5 warranty on those- rinse and repeat. $20 earbuds for $5 until they go out of business.
I might be cheating the system..
I've gone through hoards of budget sub-$100 IEMs (earbuds) in the past 10 years or so.
The longest lasting ones, and in the top 3 for sound (IMO) were these:
Soundmagic E10

I used these until I got my Senheisser ones, but REALLY good for only ~$20.
Huge value, trust me. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016ISVYXE/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1WRDNWO5ZTILH

@dupants here's all the earbuds they sell at Best Buy:
-crappy rebrands of crap made in the same factory
-Beats
-Bose
-Skullcandy
You're no expert you're gonna go out of business because of Amazon.
the skullcandy with the flat cable will last longer and the cable is longer than the JVC ones, but the JVC ones are more comfortable. With the JVC ones you can lay sideways on a pillow and barely feel them in your ear which is pretty nice.
I work at best buy and I've owned multiple earbuds so I know best.
Skullcandy sucks and will break in about 20 minutes.
