Hey pt020, that's a collection of earphones you have!!!!
I too have the Beats one and it does not fall off. I changed the earbuds so that it remains tight in my ears and no problems!!
I wished for a Flat Cable because the round ones get tangled easily. Strangely the flat ones don't!!

It is !
Everytime I move the cable moves with me and they just fall out of my ear.
Have few headphones and this one and the Beats have that flat cable and both have the same problem ,only the beats have softer cable so the problem is less.
Nice collection. I still disagree however I think the root cause is that the cables tend to be easier to be tugged onto fabric, that the conical cables. Also I've noticed they don't damage as much (LG Optimus G headphones). But you have more experience with several flat cable in-ear headphones than myself.

Thank you ...
The cables on this bluetooth receivers are too short to tangle,if it was a long one I could understand the need in it.
But as I wrote before the Sony cable are just too hard.
My experience with them is that they are uncomfortable and it is a pity because they have a good sound.
I understand that people have to learn from their own experience but do not say I didn't warn you.  |

Look if it was such a good idea from the beginning Sony would not go back to the normal cables,but I suppose not only me complained about them and thats why they went back. |

I'd say the sound quality is good with a good pair of earphone. The supplied earphones are not that good.
Why don't you wait for SBH50? Will be similar to MW600, with respect to display...

Bought a SBH20 today for my Xperia S.
Works as advertised with NFC, just touch the phones back and it pairs. Works with my Nexus 7 through BT pairing.
Sound is clear and OK I would say. Buttons > are a bit stiff. Connection is lost after maybe 5m with your back against the phone.
Something neat is that you can connect it to any speaker/speakers and turns it/them into BT speakers.
With it you get a 15cm USB cable with it, 3 pairs of ear buds and a standard 850 mA  charger.
Edit: I bought the black one.

My first impressions of the Sony SBH20
in the box ... love the short USB cable.
Build quality is the best of all the bluetooth receivers I had until now!
size is alos perfect and the clip feels very durable.
My phone does not have NFC so paired it in the old fashioned way.
straight forwards,no issues.
turned music on and there I had my first small disappointment,the headphones sound could be better ....
The older headphones were better even my cheap HPM77 headphones (14€) sound better.
So I tried it with other headphones and I must say on my Bose headphones the sound is amazing!!
Better then any bluetooth receivers I had until now, high and low tones sound just wow .
battery life is still unknown will test it soon.
