For the people who have tried it, do the buttons work with Android devices? Do the buttons actually change volume and pause/play?

Yes sir they do. All the buttons work you can also answer your phone. The q350 ear buds are very clean I love mine.

The pause button works, but the mic and volume control doesn't. The volume control never works with android products (at least from my experiences), however, I think I might have a faulty mic. Don't quote me on that though.

No, at least not on my galaxy s3 phone. i Cannot tell if it has one or two buttons in the control, but either way it only pauses and plays music for me.

Yes it will work sound wise but buttons i have to say will only work with iphones and ios devices. Sony only labeled those buttons to work on ios devices. The middle button however still works on android like pause and resume, and double clicking to go forward, and triple clicking to go backwards. but volume up and down will not work on android devices. Hope this answers your questions ^.^

No. Do yourself a favor and download the app 'Headset Button Controller' from google play store. You can use this app to re-program the button to control the VOLUME and many other things.

Hi. I only use my iPhone and it works really nice w it. I only use the next and volume buttons and they respond pretty well. Love bought it only so I can listen to playlists on my rides. Enjoy if you buy!

Others say so, but the "volume" buttons on mine don't work at all. I've tried pressing them quickly, holding them for a long time, nothing works. So I simply make sure my phone is as loud as it can go since I like everything else about this cute little thing.

No, it doesn't work as a multi-function button, nor does it activate Siri or S-Voice (on Android). This is a major bummer about this otherwise nice device. If that is what you need your Bluetooth device to do, look at the Noisehush, or even most cheaper, lesser known brands - usually they do work in that manner. I have tested it on several devices. Although others state they can successfully accomplish it, it hasn't worked for me. I am an electronics engineer - so perhaps mine is defective? That's just my experience. Battery life is quite decent the limited times I have used it (because of the non-activating button). Sound quality is also good.

Can't speak for iPhone, but if its anything like my android device, it's pretty much useless. None of the control or EQ buttons doing anything. They only work when playing mp3s on the device itself.

The controls (buttons and microphone) are NOT cross platform compatible. They only work with iPhone.However, these headphones will play sound perfectly well on an Android.To get iPhone headset controls to work with Android requires opening them up and soldering in resistors.Here is the link to the hack:http://www.instructables.com/id/Galaxy-Nexus-and-others-headset-remote-with-medi/I am not fully aware of what models of headsets with controls work with Android, but I am sure they are out there.

No, the set I have does NOT control the volume. They have a single button that works pause/resume audio (works with google play music and my podcast program). This button also activates google voice input so you can say stuff like "navigate to ______" or "call _____". For reference, I have an HTC One M7 android phone.

No, apple and android volume and pause/skip track buttons use different technical approaches. This adapter only works with apple devices.

They have a play/pause function near the mic that should work, at least it works for my Android, but no such luck for the volume on there.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 and the inline controls do not seem to be fully supported. Obviously, they still work as regular headphones though. You can play and pause, but volume and previous/next do not do anything. Long-holding the play/pause button brings up S-Voice.

I did a reply but not sure it went like that. I contacted my son and here is what he said: That button allows you to mute the sounds. It does not speak and you must read the questions. It just plays background sounds like bells or chimes. Again...it's a blast. You and your friends will totally fall in love with it and wonder how it's so darn smart.

The remote is made for Apple, you can pause and play tracks using your Android device. But the volume buttons will not
