Editorial note

The Philips SHB5900 headphones stand out for their superior sound quality, thanks to their in-ear design and a closed acoustic system that offers total immersion in music. With a sensitivity of 107 dB and a frequency range of 10 to 22000 Hz, these headphones promise an enjoyable listening experience. Battery life is a strong point with up to 150 hours on standby, although continuous audio playback is limited to 5.5 hours, which may not suit all users wishing to listen to music for long periods without interruption.
