Editorial note

The Philips SHD8850 is a wireless headphone that stands out for its impressive battery life of 20 hours, allowing you to enjoy your music without interruption. Its hybrid nickel-metal rechargeable battery (NiMH) technology ensures both durability and performance, while being economical and environmentally friendly. The sound experience is also on point, thanks to 40 mm speakers and neodymium magnets, guaranteeing immersive audio quality. However, this model has some drawbacks. The use of NiMH AAA batteries may require regular replacement, which can be less convenient than fully rechargeable models. Additionally, the lack of an integrated microphone limits its usability for calls or voice commands, reducing its versatility. Although the wireless range is advertised at 30 meters, physical obstacles can reduce this distance, thus affecting usage flexibility. The product design is modern and ergonomic, but its weight of 221 g can become uncomfortable during long listening sessions. In-ear headphones may not suit all users, with some preferring a supra-aural model for increased comfort. In summary, the Philips SHD8850 offers good audio quality and remarkable battery life, while presenting some limitations in terms of practicality and comfort. For those who prioritize an immersive listening experience, it represents good value for money, despite a few drawbacks to consider.
