Philips headphones

Our noise-cancelling headphones feature tiny microphones that pick up ambient noise around you. Then on-board electronics create a noise-cancelling wave, which is the exact opposite to the ambient noise. This wave acts like a noise eraser, cancelling unwanted sounds without noticeably diminishing the quality of your music. 

Standard headphones send soundwaves to your eardrums, which vibrate in tune with the sounds you’re hearing. Bone-conduction headphones vibrate your cheekbones and cochlea (a bone in the inner ear), bypassing the eardrum altogether.

This lets you listen without wearing headphones in, or on, your ear. Bone-conduction headphones are great for increasing situational awareness during sports or walking. They can also provide a solution for listeners who have some problems in the outer ear, middle ear, or eardrum.

On-ear headphones sit on the ear without enveloping the ear's outer edges. This fit is ideal if you don't want your ears to warm up over long listening sessions, but it can leave you susceptible to external noise. Over-ear headphones completely cover the ear, surrounding the outer edges and hugging the head with a fit that provides much better isolation from outside noise.

Wireless headphones connect wirelessly to your audio device. They come in headband and earbud styles. While there is no wire needed to connect the headphones to your device there is always a cable that connects the earpieces (the cable might be hidden in the headband or a neckband).

True wireless headphones are earbud-style headphones that sit on, or in, your ear. They have no wires at all: each earpiece connects to your device wirelessly via Bluetooth.

Sports headphones are designed for active lifestyles. You'll see an IP rating on our sports headphones, which indicates a level of protection from water, sweat, and dust. Many of our sports headphones also boast features to help you train: like heart-rate monitoring, UV cleaning, or cooling ear cups. 

Downloading the Philips Headphones app lets you unlock the full potential of your headphones. You can turn specific headphone features on or off in the app, adjust settings for functions like noise cancellation or equalizers, and check battery status. The app also lets you update your headphones with the latest software, and gives you access to the user manual.
