Manual of product SHB1603
Editorial note
The Philips SHB1603 headphones stand out for their lightness and comfort, weighing only 7 g, making them ideal for prolonged use, especially during daily commutes. Their in-ear design ensures a pleasant sound immersion, although the monophonic model may not satisfy audiophiles seeking an immersive stereo experience. In terms of performance, the audio quality is generally satisfactory, but the lack of a noise-canceling microphone can affect call clarity in noisy environments. The Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity is stable, but it has limitations compared to newer versions, which can lead to compatibility issues with certain devices. The battery life is one of the strong points of these headphones, with 168 hours on standby and 5 hours of talk time, although this latter figure may seem limited for some users. However, the lack of 3.5 mm or USB connectors limits connection options with other audio devices, which could be a drawback for those seeking more flexibility. In summary, the Philips SHB1603 are a practical and comfortable option for users looking for lightness and good battery life, despite some limitations in connectivity and audio quality in noisy environments.Score details
