HP 400

Advantages: design, price, sound isaolation, bass-line
Disadvantages: materials, a lot of plastic, no volume controller, not competely packable

...(exeption is leather head cover), have much less weight and look much cheaper- in design and materials. But still, compared to similar headphones from other companies, Philips still has pretty good sound for the price (mine cost only 20£), though it seems that Philips is cutting off on quality. ...

Review of Philips SBC-HP 400

Philips SPH 2000

Advantages: Good quality, nice design, confortable.
Disadvantages: Big size.

Philips SHP 2000 great headphones on right price. Few years later I was looking for headphones and i found these one. In shop was not many headphones, so i took this. It wasn't very expensive, so i though i will have it some months and it will broke down. But i was wrong, i still have it and it still working perfectly. Moreover i many times inadvertently dropped it from my table, but that did not change sound quality. Naturally if you keep dropping ...

Review of Philips SHP 2000

BEWARE of buying ANY Philips headphones.

Advantages: They sound fine
Disadvantages: Irreplaceable rubber caps fall of WAY TOO easily

...Beware Beware before buying ANY Philips in-ear headphones. They come with little rubber ear caps... that just loosely "hang" on the end of each headphone to seal into your ear. These things get lost EXTREMELY easily, easpecially if you are running or doing any type of exercise activity. When you lose them in a matter of a few months, you are completely out of luck & WILL NOT find anywhere that seels them. As a matter of fact, I was told Philips purposely ...

Review of Philips SHS 8000 00

Good Earphones Flawed by Noise Cancellation

Advantages: Good Sound Quality, Noise Cancelation Worked Well
Disadvantages: Impractically bulky, Eats up batteries

...purchased a pair of these Philips SHN2500 earphones from a local Maplins store about 3 months ago for £29.99 - recommended by one of the clerks of the store for good quality and I had read some good reviews and seen some pictures of it online. I must say that they weren't exactly what I was expecting. This is the only aspect of the earphones which really bugged me - the noise canceling device of the earphones. I had looked at images online and carefully ...
...large and clunky this box thing actually was. It measure 8cm long, 3.5cm wide and 1.5cm deep and takes a single AAA battery to power it. This box really did annoy me, as its chunky size and weight due to the battery inside. It is positioned, very awkwardly as well. When the earphones are in the ears, if for example you have your music player in your pocket, the box would continuously keep pulling the ear buds out. Fortunately you can leave the noise ...

Review of Philips SHN 2500

Poor build quality, fair sound. Overall - don't bother

Advantages: Sound quality is good to being with
Disadvantages: Poor build quality will tell over time

To begin with the positives. The sound quality, especially the bass was good to begin with good pick up on dance music which is quite bass heavy. Also, the the soft in-ear pieces fit to the inner ear quite well and there are three alternate attachments to suit the users ear size (however, these easily come off and I lost most of them). That was about it in terms of positives, and to be honest I was struggling to remember those. Now to the negatives. ...
...don't feel like I got my moneys worth at all. The build quality is poor and the product has deteriorated rapidly over time. The sound quality has become very poor and fuzzy, and the in-ear pieces no longer fit and the others have been lost, as they kept falling off. Also, the wire easily becomes tangled and is very difficult to untangle. Finally, there is a connector in the wire which allows you to shorten the headphone wire length form long to short. ...
