If you prefer a sporty on-ear, the Philips SH402 is the ideal companion: The Bluetooth model is pleasantly light at 175 grams, protected against splash water according to IPX4, reaches a playing time of up to 20 hours with one battery charge and offers a very firm but still comfortable fit on the ears - nothing slips here even when jogging, weight training or skipping.

The Philips SH402 stands out from the competition mainly because of its ear pads: as soon as you put them on, a cooling effect occurs. They are filled with a special gel that reduces the temperature by three to five degrees Celsius when they are placed directly on the skin. The breathable fabric covering does the rest. The pads can simply be removed for cleaning. The headphones themselves are made of easy-care plastic.

On the right ear cup, there is not only the (covered) micro-USB port for charging the battery, but also three buttons on which you can control the music playback, volume and phone function. The built-in neodymium drivers turn out considerably larger than the in-ear versions (6 millimeters) at 40 millimeters, which naturally benefits the sound quality. Thanks to its quick-charging technology, the Philips SH402 can recharge enough energy for two hours of playing time in just 15 minutes.
