Philips Nike HJO3O Clip On Headphones

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. The clamping system works very well and does not budge even when put to the test by running cycling etc. Another benefit of these headphones is that they are sweatproof, which is handy if you are keen on music and working out. Obviously the most important aspect to...

NIKE do CD players now?

Advantages: Long battery life, plays mp3s
Disadvantages: Battery compartment in awkward place

...so they?re not quite so ?designed for movement? like the player itself. It has butterfly clip attached for wire management. I?ve been using earphones I got separately. The ones with hooks to hook behind your ear to secure the ear pieces. *****Please note ****** I think they?ve replaced the headphones and the hand strap with better ones/accessories. (Don?t quote me on this). On the official site: http://www.philips-nike.com/productdetails.jsp?lang=en&product=psacd12 The listed accessories are different to what I?ve got. - Psaduro Headphones (with ear hooks) - Sport pack with waistband extension ...and I MISSED OUT! I would have liked to get a waistband and those headphones with mine. ----------------------------------------------- ********* Also includes...

Philips SHS 4701, comfortable earphones at last

Advantages: The fit & design. Comfy, brilliant sound & base, owning a pair!
Disadvantages: Not owning a pair!!!!! The price is high at £19.99, see below about price

...I am sitting infront of my laptop with these wonderfull headphones attached to my ears & my iphone! I have been surfing the internet for ages & it just occurred to me how good these earphones are so I had to tell you all. I am very funny with earphones, I have very small earlobes & all the normal fit in the ear ones just fall straight out of my ear within seconds. I have tried all sorts, but none stay in my ear long enough to listen to any song, so I have long given up on finding a pair of suitable earphones that dont look like 2 satelite dishes have been attached to the side of my head via a massive headband that would make Alice in Wonderland cringe in shame! Well I was browsing in my local shop & found these Philips earphones, there are about 3 sorts in the range, well there were in this shop, but these were specifically...

Mattygroves and Her Unexpectedly Good Earphones

Advantages: Superb sound, comfortable fit, volume control on the cord
Disadvantages: Some earbuds were missing, slighly pricy for in-ear earphones

...I am coming to realise that iPod/MP3 player earphones take quite a beating indeed. I have owned a number of pairs of said earphones over the past two or three years, and inevitably, eventually they break down (normally the wires get frayed or something, and so you receive audio out of only one ear). The durability of the earphones is compromised also by my habit of wrapping the cord around the iPod itself (apparently a no-no, but I've never found a sufficient convenient alternative). I use in the ear soft earphones. I have small ear canals, and so find rigid earpieces uncomfortable. I'd be tempted by over the ear headphones, but they are inconvenient to transport. Now, you can buy earphones for as little as a fiver, or you can spend a small fortune, necessitating a re-mortgage. I have tried the cheaper, and the mid-cheap (say £15 - £20...

Nike Tiempo Legend

Advantages: Soft, Leathery, Goal Scorers Classic
Disadvantages: Leather wears slightly

...The world renowned Ronaldinho sports these amazing, sultry boots they are soft inside and the leather is ever so soft. The custom nike pattern gives it a fashionable design. Nike Tiempo Legend are used by 9% Premier League Players. This boot is great for soft ground and this is seen by the amount of footballers who wear it. I had these shoes last season and they are still in mint condition which show quality is a must as with most Nike products. I normally go for the coveted 3 striped but this was an eye catching yet basic design i thoroughly enjoyed putting 25 goals past the keeper last year and will certainly use these as they have fast become my favourite and luckiest boots. I advise you to purchase this as it is a bargain. You'll be mad to miss it....

Review of Nike Tiempo

nike tiempo boots

Advantages: nice design, light
Disadvantages: not strong, dont prevent injury

...been wearing my mitre boots the injury would not have occurred as the leather would have been stronger and would have prevented my ankle from twisting. This is just in my experience but i am noticing this more and more in the modern day nike boots. I gotta say in defense of them though that the design is nice and they are extremely light. But maybe as my story proves that isnt such a good thing. If you are a real footballer who likes to play alot and not just against mates but competitively then i would not recommend these boots. Sure they look nice but if they dont prevent injury then it doesnt matter how they look. Save some money and get the old school mitre boots lol, or just buy the total 90s they are my personal favourites and are still quite cheap....

Review of Nike Tiempo

Philips Headphones

Advantages: Lightweight, Good Bass
Disadvantages: Cable comes out of the casing

...I bought these headphones about 6 months ago. They were cheap, and they looked good. The bass on them is extremely good for the size of the headphones. The sound quality of the headphones is excellent, depending on the quality of the sound file. They are comfortable to wear. They are easy to put on, and can be worn for hours on end. The wire connecting the headphones to an external device is concealed in a string type material. After many hours of use, the wire casing has started to come through the casing. This is bad because I am unable to get it back in, but it is probably my own fault. The length of the wiring is generous, and is always long enough. The headphones can fold flat, but aren't meant to, but it is only the plastic that is moving so it is alright. The band that goes around the head has a reflective cover. So...

Review of Philips SBC-HS 520

Ba-Ba Boom

Advantages: Comfortable to wear. Good sound quality. An excellent set of budget infra red headphones.
Disadvantages: Not a lot!

...I recently changed my old TV for a new flat screen model (Mikai), so at the same time decided to replace my ancient headphones which were quite literally beginning to fall apart from constant daily use over the years. The foam ear protectors were long gone, so after wearing the headphones for anything more than a few minutes your ears began to ache from contact with the hard plastic. The ratchets for adjusting the headset to fit your head size were also worn out, so the earpieces had a habit of slipping of your ears. My old headphones were made by Philips, and because of their years of faithful service I decided that their replacements would be from the same manufacturer. So off I went to one of my favourite eBay shops (name supplied on request) and after a couple of minutes browsing I found what I was after. A lovely set of big...

Review of Philips SHC2000 Headphones

Nike PSA

Advantages: Sturdy
Disadvantages: Annoying headphones

...From the off this looks a smart piece of equiptment, at first i was a bit dubious as to whether purchase this. I never realised until i actually bought it that it was a philips piece of electronics with bits of input from nike themselves. I'll keep it short and sweet so it doesnt take an age to read. Disadvantages 1. The headphones arent really the best on the market, although the remote on it is good you'll find the headphones are pretty uncomfortable. You can if you want change the original and use the remote with another set of headphones but this makes for an overly long cable. 2. If you forget to put the hold button on the remote you'll find it constantly likes to pause or jump. 3. The battery compartment is actually under the cd itself., this can become pretty annoying when your batteries run out and you have to take...

ipod earphones

Advantages: The come packaged when you buy an ipod.
Disadvantages: Poor Sound Quality, Uncomfortable.

...The apple ipod earphones come as standard with all apple ipod products but you can also purchase them from official apple dealers and outlets for around £15-£20. I used my ipod earphones for a few weeks after I got my ipod but as soon as I found a suitable replacement, I got rid of them. The sound quality is very poor, I had to turn my ipod up to full volume (even with the volume limiter off) before I could hear the music properly. The bass sounds I got from these earphones was also very poor, a problem which was not helped by the volume required as it distorted the sound quite a lot. Considering the price you pay for these, they are not even comfortable, I felt them slipping out of my ear one more than one occasion and a few times, after using them for about an hour, I had a severe pain in my ear. The connector of these earphones is...
