Philips TAUH202BK - our opinion

In regards to purchasing consumer electronics we would always advice to spend a bit more and buy quality merchandise. In the past couple of years we bought or tested many headsets, corded and wireless headphones and we were not happy with the sound quality of most. Still there were some good examples for cheap in-ear headphones like the JBL Tune 110 which sounded more than adequate for the price.

Our point here is that you are going to get what you paid for - decent but not great sound from the Philips TAUH202BK, adequate battery life and good wireless range.
