Good price on these, they are "Optimised of Android" and come with a 3.5mm plug/jack A big fan of Sennheiser and these have dropped another tenner recently (was looking not so long back) Delivery is free :smiley:
Reviews are good and most I have seen were from when theses were at a much higher price anyway (I guess as expected as time rolls on)
With its striking aesthetics and unsurpassed sound quality Sennheiser’s HD 471 offers pure listening pleasure, whether you’re on the go or in your living room. Highly advanced transducers and innovative, lightweight diaphragms work in conjunction to provide clear, detailed sound reproduction, while the ergonomic circumaural design ensures maximum attenuation of ambient noise and a comfortable fit even after hours of use. And because these headphones are fully compatible with both portable devices as well as home stereo equipment, you’ll be able to enjoy amazing sound quality anywhere. Sennheiser’s HD 471: If you’re looking for high-performance audio, you’ve found it.

What's in the box?
Stereo headphones
1.4m audio cable with integrated smart remote and microphone
They have both the Samsung g and Apple i versions (although the picture is incorrect on the i model)
I returned my pair last weekend as the removable cable developed a fault that made one earpiece cut out and Sennheiser wanted £17-25 for a replacement. So as the model is now discontinued I opted for a replacement as there are few alternatives in this price bracket.
I also looked at the Monster N Pulse headphones available at HMV but these were a bit too "Road Man" for my liking.
My thoughts after 3 months of use:
+Lightweight and comfortable.
-Cable is uncommon 2.5mm to 3.5mm and too flimsy in my opinion.
-Sound is good but not flat, lacking detail.
+Works great on a PS4.
+Great value for the price paid.
Voted hot as delivery available here if your local Maplin is out of stock.

agree with the cable being flimsy. Had these for a year and it became exposed at the earpiece.
