According to our earbuds expert
With the Philips SHB5250BK earbuds, you can listen to your music wirelessly. Connect your smartphone via Bluetooth to the earbuds, select your favorite artist, and enjoy 4.5 hours of uninterrupted listening to the best songs. When your earbud batteries are empty, you can recharge them using the USB cable. You'll have a larger freedom of movement with only 1 modest cable around your neck, featuring a built-in remote control and microphone. You can control your music and make hands-free phone calls in no time. Thanks to the flat cable, it won't become tangled as quickly.

Great sound, lots of detail, but not shrill. Guitars, saxophones, bass - so instruments with low undertones sound really fat. Lots of clear texture in all sounds. I also have a Senheiser PX100, and also a Grado SR60, and these Phillips earbuds have the most balanced sound for me. Wouldn't you say, unbelievable! Although it is wireless. I was used to the Senheiser, and at first the Phillips sounded to me like the midrange was over-exposed relative to the highs and lows. But it takes some getting used to, and I now conclude that the Sennheiser is set too laid back, with the center too far in the background, so that the texture and details disappear. The Grado is also super neutral, and ultimately probably better than the Phillips, but I think the Phillips just sound more interesting now, and for wireless earbuds that's a super performance when measured with an audiophile full size open Grado headphones. In the subway or bus, the Phillips is also fine, dampens the environment reasonably well, and the volume can be turned up loud enough, without sounding painful. I also have magical listening moments on the road (that's what I call it when I hear a song and think - how cool is music and how cool it sounds!). While I was never an 'earphones fan'. I can't get used to the real in-ears, the earbud shape is ideal for me. As someone else wrote: a breath of fresh air. The fact that the battery and buttons are separate is very clever, by the way: you can put the battery under your t-shirt, and the box with buttons and microphone remains nice and light. And if you take them out of your ears, they will stick to the edge of your shirt 'on the battery'.

The product certainly lives up to expectations, but keep in mind the typical inconveniences such as wearing comfort and battery that runs out quickly. In terms of wearing comfort, I put it between my neck and camisole so that the left ear doesn't fall out every time, because of the weight of the battery that disrupts the balance.
