Philips SHS390/00 Neckband Headphones

This product has good sound quality.However the problem i have is that the ear pieces are too big and even though they hook over my ears, the ear pieces end up half on my face. I wouldn't buy them again.I much prefer my previous Sony headphones.

I love this reasonably priced product! I use it when I'm working out at the gym. The sound reproduction is very good with the bass being reasonable. I use it mainly when doing cardio. Because they are not adjustable, I do find some movement/sliding of the band behind my neck which can put the ear pieces out of position, but this doesn't happen often.The only problems I had were with DHL. They tried to deliver to my home address, but I was out. I contacted them by phone and was given an e-mail address which I could write to to re-arrange delivery to my work address. This went ignored and they tried to redeliver to my home address. I called and e-mailed again, but still received no response. I gave it a few more days and called them up, at which point they told me that they had deliverd successfully. I asked why they didn't deliver to the new address as instructed, and was told that that particular depot covered my home area only. I asked why my e-mails had not received any responses and was told they didn't know. Anyway, I knocked on a few doors and found that one of my neighbours had signed for it, and they handed it over to me.

Basically I ordered a pair, found that upon opening the package the connection was faulty. Sent them back received another pair and within about two months the contact in the thin straggly cable deteriorated until they simply no longer worked. They are now in the bin and I am looking for new headphones.They used to make these years ago and they were good well made headphones. Not anymore, they will probably only last a few months if you are lucky before the wired break and you get no sound whatsoever....And they call this progress? Explains why they're cheap at the moment though.

I guess you get what you pay for. Bought these when they were less than a fiver so can't complain too much. They do everything you'd expect however i've had two now and both of them have lost the sound in one of the ear pieces after 6-9 months of use. Would buy another pair (at the original price) but not for the current price.

I am sure that I do not have the best hearing in the world and don't know if I am missing half of what is there.This product fits well and delivers sound which sounds good to me. (They look better that sitting there with 'ear-muffs' on!) Nice phones!

A simple headphone. It's bit small and the backneck band is not very flexible and probably cause I've a bigger head/ unusual head shape at times I feel it to be bit tight and can feel it rubbing against my hair. I was looking for a headphone which I wish is circlar and cover up most of my ear so I can look cool (hahaha yes I know I'm weird) but it doesn't really cover up the upper part of the ear and the shape of the headphone is fairly oval as well.Despite the slight incoherent rambling, a nice simple headphone and nothing more really.

The headphones arrived about 2 days after I ordered them - which means they arrived on christmas eve, despite all the postal problems. The product itself is exceptionally good value for money: they give good quality, high volume sound and are comfortable to wear. Everything I was looking for.

Got these headphones to replace my old Philips foldaway ones which gave me a great 5/6 years of service. I use them mainly when out on my bike, hence the reason I prefer the neck band style, and they get soaked and filthy on a regular basis so a fairly rough life for headphones I guess.The wire seems a bit flimsy compared my previous set, but they have a decent sound quality for a budget price.
