The sports model is mainly designed for people who lead an active lifestyle and go in for fitness or sports. Its distinctive feature is the way the earbuds are held in the ears during sudden movements. To do this, it uses comfortable behind-the-ear arches. For those to whom this method seems unusual and inconvenient, another mounting option is provided, using special hooks. If the headphones are used in a quiet home environment, then all additional devices can be removed and used as simple earbuds. The case of this model has a water protection standard IPX4, which means water and sweat resistance. In other words, you can go for a run with Philips SHQ1400 headphones in any weather. The cable is round, reinforced with Kevlar threads. In order to prevent its free sagging and entanglement, a s...pecial cable clamp is included in the kit. The 3.5mm jack plug is L-shaped and is equipped with cable kink protection. Headphones are very light, the weight is almost not felt. In the technical characteristics of the device, the manufacturer claims an extended range of reproducible frequencies — from 15 Hz to 22 kHz. The sensitivity is quite classic, as for devices of this type, at a level of 107 dB.

Headphones SHQ1400 from Philips will be of interest, first of all, to people with an active lifestyle. The model is positioned as sporty, as indicated by the behind-the-ear arms.

With music for life

The advantages of the SHQ1400 do not end there, but only begin. The model is offered in several colours, quite iridescent, attracting attention, has protection against moisture and sweat IPX4 and a cable reinforced with Kevlar threads. In general, everything you need for Spartan conditions. Three pairs of complete soft rubber earbuds (standard, with hooks and temples) will help to achieve the strongest fixation on the ear, but it is worth considering that long-term wearing may cause discomfort, it all depends on the structure of the auricle. So, it is better to hold the headphones in your ears for a while before buying.

Genre intelligibility

Despite the wide frequency range of 15 – 22,000 Hz, the frequency response in the SHQ1400 failed at low frequencies. Actually, there is almost no bass in them. But the middle and top are worked out well. Synthpop, pop, instrumental compositions, soundtracks sound good. Lovers of deep elastic bass pass by.

No talking

Headphones are not intended to be used as a headset, they have neither a remote control nor a built-in microphone, and this, to put it mildly, is inconvenient and incomprehensible, because the option is essentially a penny, and obviously not for the sake of saving. But there is a clip for attaching the wire to clothing. On the run, or in crowded transport, the thing is quite convenient.

Philips SHQ1400 are good sports headphones at an affordable price of $14 for those who are not confused by the lack of a headset function. The main thing is to fit.
