Do the remote control buttons work with Android phones - specifically the Samsung Galaxy S3?

They should---I did use them on my iphone until the volume control stopped working properly--back to using the iphone earphones for now. And FYI--think twice before you purchase the PowerBeats headphones---we've had 2 pair in less than 3 months and in both pairs the volume control stopped working. Hope this helped!

I tried it with galaxy S4 today, controls works for play/pause, next/previous song, but volume control doesn't work, I am not sure about other android phones

I'm not sure if it will. They work with NFC (near field communication), so as long as your phone has the capacity for NFC, these buttons should work

There is no compatible remote.I've gone through 2 of these remotes, so far and BOTH have fried / melted / exploded the batteries with very minimal use. It's ridiculous and so is Samsung's response that it is not an issue!

This is an iPhone compatible product, and as such, the side with the remote may not work on an Android.It could also be a faulty product, or perhaps you don't have it plugged in all the way. Just some suggestions.

the bluetooth can be controlled by the remotes as is skipping mp3s or adjusting volume and you can skip from the phone as well but not switch to radio or power the unit on or off so it would be wise to use the remote i prefer the wired ones

I'm using this remote with android tv box, works fine for me, because I have the box hidden under the seat of my car, and the kids seating in the back are able to change the movies without having to point directly to the unit. Boxee box I really don't know if uses the same software IOS like android tv box

I'm not sure about an actual physical remote, but the last update allows you to use a smart phone as a remote

Yes, so happens I have an S3 and paired with the phone and it works. I bought it to use with a Chromebook and the mouse works very well.

I use the google tv remote app on my phone. I also have an lg universal remote that works too.

I don't know, I did not find a remote control with it. If you look at the back where you can hook up an android phone for music, thats what was broken on it, whe I went to unplug it they bot came off

Unfortunately the controls work onky with iProducts. I returned my earphones. I tried the model down (450 I believe) but they also didnt work. I then got Mobster DNA with "universal remote" but those also did NOT work with my Samsung phone! For now I gave up!

Presume no more. They do not work with my Galaxy S3. The headphones play sound, but the microphone doesn't work, and neither do the volume buttons. The center key activates the android voice command (does anyone actually use that?)

The headband on these are adjustable and they use a standard quarter inch headphone jack so they will work with all ipod/android products but there is no in-line remote on the cord.

The headphone works for audio and answering calls. However, the in-line button remote control capabilites are limited for Android-based phones such as the Samsung S3. You will be able to answer calls but not turn up/down the volume or change tracks.

Here is an article about rkremote, which is a free app. http://tabletrepublic.com/forum/android-mini-pc/rkremotecontrol-remote-control-app-rk3066-3285.html, some say droidmote is a little more responsive, but if you don't want to shell out any money, this one could be good enough.

Yes - all buttons work. The skip forward and skip back are already on the remote anyway. There's not a single function of my 622 that I can't control with this remote. Programming takes just a bit of getting used to, but once you figure out the differences between the remote in "device" and "activity" mode, it's a snap.
