Advantages: Comfortable, Affordable Disadvantages: Can Be Difficult To Put On
...Picture the scene, You arrive home from buying you new portable mp3/cd/cassette player only to find out that through the headphones provided it sounds like 10 angry wasps trapped in a beer can. Well this nightmare scenario need no longer be the case, if you invest a little extra in these babies.
These headphones are made by Philips in conjunction with Nike aimed at the sports market. They come equipped with behind the ear hooks which hold the earpiece in place so you can partake in some activities that would be otherwise impossible with normal in ear headphones.

...really insulated the sound and it was left to my wife to procure the PhilipsNike SBCHJ080 headphones for my birthday. The cost being £34.99, slightly more expensive than Apple headphones but the additional price is definitely worth paying due to the increased clarity of sound, build quality, adjustable bass and treble and other associated quirky features, more of which I expand on further within the opinion.
Pleasing on the eye, the silver hooks and lightweight padded clips provide the ultimate in comfort, allowing prolonged usage without them digging in or being so heavy that they cause any form of discomfort whatsoever.
