90 degree connector? I received my MEElectronics m9 from Amazon today and notice that it has a 90 degrees connector. The product description on the official website say it's 45 degrees, as it's also shown on the images and video reviews. Does anyone else noticed this too? Hopefully it was just a redesign and not a counterfeit. 90 degree connector? I received my MEElectronics m9 from Amazon today and notice that it has a 90 degrees connector.

http://www.meelec.com/MEElectronics_M9P_Earphones_for_iPhone_iPod_p/earphone-m9p-bk-mee.htm The site was updated with new images of the 90 degree connector.

I was also curious about this. My friend has a pair of M9 with the 45 degree plug that he got a few months ago, but the pair I ordered has a cheaper looking 90 degree plug, and the packaging is much different. I was unable to reach the manufacturer; the phone number listed on their website went to the voicemail of some guy named Marty with a strange accent. It's not a huge problem, as the headphones still work just fine, but I want to make sure I got the same product I paid for.If I'm able to find out anything else from the manufacturer or elsewhere, I will post it here.

UPDATE: I was able to contact the manufacturer by phone, and the customer service rep told me that the 90-degree plug and new packaging are part of a recent redesign. The new design is supposed to improve durability in the long run. I was told that the new M9s had only begun to ship out a few weeks ago, and that the images on websites like Amazon, Newegg, etc. have not been updated yet (apparently, the official MeElectronics website hasn't either, but whatever...)So fear not, you have not received a counterfeit product. The headphones have indeed been redesigned with a new 90-degree gold-plated connector.

From the pictures, it looks like a mini-USB, but I'm not 100% sure. It looks like the one labeled "mini" on this page: http://phandroid.com/2009/06/30/microusb-becomes-european-standard-in-2010/. It has the wiggly sides, and the top where the metal comes together also looks like the "mini" picture. I have no idea why they don't give the connector information in the product specs. Since I knew what my Tom Tom model was, I just picked a connector that was supposed to be compatible with it.

This charger does work with TracFone's Motorola W376g. I'm trying to determine if the unit I got is counterfeit or not. Mine had a single blue LED-the entire M logo does not light up as in 99% of the pictures I've seen, and many of the descriptions here. Motorola has a counterfeit ID site (you can download a book there) which may be out of date? I received SNY1630A-I see there are also SYN1630 (no "A")-I'm wondering if the A model is a revised model with the single blue LED? Thinking mine might be counterfeit (I have an e-mail into Motorola), I went to a local WalMart and found the same unit in retail packaging, and it both looks like mine and has a picture on the box of a unit with the single LED. At this point, I'm guessing the single LED unit is an update? If not, then the one I saw at WalMart must be counterfeit also?

As phrased your question could be interpreted two ways so I'm going to be nitpicky. The metal portion of the headphone connector is straight BUT the plastic portion that the metal pin is mounted in is at a 90° angle to the pin. I think this means that these headphones are not for you.

I have been trying to find the 90 lumen model everywhere (the one without the silver ring) and have ordered one from Amazon and one from ebay. Both came with the silver ring and both were 125 lumens. I want the regular one, as pictured, for a more tactical look. That silver ring is gaudy. I can't find it anywhere. Best bet is to buy on bunbroker.com with actual pics of the individual unit being sold.

I haven't tried it past about 45 degrees, but it works great on mine at that angle.

Not sure about the date of mfr on my unit. I bought it in late April/early May this year -- 2013. Mine is NOT the GS40, it's a newer updated model very similar to the GS40, but has different handles, etc. Can't vouch for any interior differences. Model number on the plate shows #20051111, but it doesn't show a date on it. Masterbuilt did not have it on their website when I got mine. I ordered thru Cabela's because they had it on sale with a cover, sausage racks and a DVD. In-store locally did not have it on the floor. This doesn't even come close to answering your question, but I'll provide as much info as I know to you, if you need more. Not sure about the date of mfr on my unit.

Monoprice may have updated their design since the other answers. Mine (purchased late 2014) clearly has 4 contacts on the jacks/female ends, and of course 4 contacts on the male end as pictured.On the female ends, there's a contact directly below the outer ring, then 2 more contacts on the sides (one farther out, one farther in), & then the end point contact way in.Unfortunately I don't have a 4-connector mic to test with, but other people answering similar questions for this product have reported that combo mic/earphones that use 4-ring 3.5mm plugs do work with this product.

Be careful, as the reviews for three different models are bunched together... paper, plastic and wire collated, or model NR90ADPR - 35 degree paper collated clipped head, then model NR90AE(S) - 21 degree plastic collated round head and finally model NR90AF - 28 degree wire collated offset round head.I also was confused until I realized the reviews were for three models and hope this helps. That said, I went to the Hitachi website... that by the way, is not a com, but ca for Canada and read the specs, as well as the owner manuals for each.

In this model the numbers showing the degrees of the angle are etched into the metal. I believe the other model you are looking into it is just a sticker which, to my knowledge, can be off when applied to the device.

Hey Robert.. I am wondering the same thing.. I actually bought 2 of the M305..they work great but its a little small for my hand. My girlfriend luvs hers, But she has smaller hands. Hope that helps a little bit.

It is angled 90 degrees. To clarify, The wire is angled 90 degrees from the pin.

I have no idea. maybe there is something on their website? fwiw mine is still as good as the day i got it :)

Yep. You will be angry.Mine arrived today from TRD Trading. Guess what? It's a i9023 intended for Europe (this model has a google.fr sticker on it).I will post photos today. It's going back and I expect a full refund. Amazon's listing is totally misleading and incorrect.Very frustrating.

Well, a lot of them. i had mine go out (as ecotemp said) and i don't think it got below 38f. if you do have a problem with yours im sure they will say it's because you let it freeze. thats what all their complaints are about it seems. and their customer service is non existent, they just said it was all my fault then (get this) he hung up on me. i never raised my voice (but he did) i tried to call back and they would not pick up my call. i will never even think about using them again. good luck!

It's 90°, I use the product with. Maaassice "otterbox" style laaayered case on my phone. . But be aware that there has been a problem with this product -it seems Amazon fulfilment (who handles sales for all 3rd party prime sales) -if you look through the feedback on this item, you will find multiple complaints that nobody is getting this item, they're instead getting the version with no microphone and no in-line volume control.

Yeah it seems just fine to me. Also, it's a 90 degree jack instead of a straight jack if you know what I mean.
