Decent choice for the money

 

In it's price class, these headphones kinda do the trick. The noise cancelling feature is shoddy at best. I was borrowing some open ear Aiwa HP-CN5 and I wish I'd have spent the extra money. I would highly recommend the Aiwa's over these. Trust me when...

Great, Cheap, Headphones!

 

I used to own the Philips SHN5500/37 Noise-Canceling Behind-The-Head Headphone, which stopped working after about half a year(I bought them used and they were shipped in a regular manila envelope) and these are suppose to be the continuing model. While...

Good Headphones

 

The product is great for when I mow the grass. The John Deere lawn mower makes plenty of noise, but I can put these headphones on and it cuts out most of the noise. Plus, I like the behind the neck design because it doesn't lay on top of my boonie hat...

Poor design, great sound

 

I bought these headphones for my pc and have to say that they are the most uncomfortable headphones I've ever had. The sound quality, however, was great--though not enough to deal w/ the comfort issue. I will be returning them.

Great earphones

 

The earphones I purchased are the best earphones under $100 that I know of, and I use them to make a living. I could not find them at any electronics store, but naturally I found them on the net, specifically Amazon.

Terrible headphones!!

 

I just bought these cheap headphones!! Looks nice but not are functional!! I expect good and strong sound quality!! But really doesn't worth a penny!! Terrible sound,!! Dont buy these!

Consumer review by:

Get quality sound with uncomfortable ears

 

Sound quality: It is a decent product if you use on airplanes. It does indeed cancel all that noise of the plane. If you use them in a noisy environment, such as a coffee shop, you definitely see a difference, but it is not like you are sound proof.....

Consumer review by:

Many bad qualities

 

Apparently this product is discontinued, but you can use the reviews here as a guide on what not to buy in the future. Buyer beware and all that. I too found the noise canceling nonexistent. Apparently it works for some units in some instances and not...

stunned

 

I was stunned when I opened these headphones up and used them for my MP3 player. All I can say is they were terrible. My ear buds that came with my MP3 player sounded better than these headphones. The Philips HN050 is not worth the money. I will be...
