Philips SHM7410U/97 Headset with MicBlack, On the Ear

I bought this headphone few days back and I had to kinda go through plethora of available headphones to choose the best with my budget i.e. below 1000 bucks. This was the only one which had max reviews esp about mic. Reviews are great and most ppl kinda loved it too much. But for me, its good but not superb! So here's my take: =============================================================== PROS =============================================================== - Very Good bass - Sound is clear even on highest level - Mic is good - Mic movable so can be turned up when not in use - There is a switch given to mute the mic along with the volume control - Wire is long enough to move arnd ur entire room..now this could be a disadv too ha ha but keep it tied and u should be fine at least it provides flexibility ================================================================ CONS ================================================================ - It is heavy - Its hard on ears. You'll feel the pain and pressure within 1 hour of use - Not suitable for prolonged use - Sound is clear even on the highest sound but the highest sound isn't that high really, could have been better for headphone of this price! - Too much long wire could be annoying sometimes if not tied up ================================================================ Summary ================================================================ All in all its a good headphone in this price range but still lacks a few crucial basic needs. I am very happy with sound quality but it just irks me that I cant use it for long time. It may ease with usage but for now it hurts!! So it will make u happy but not satisfied completely.

I was looking for a great mic for taking calls etc. After reading some of the mixed reviews i ordered this product. To my great satisfaction this is a great product from philips. The mic is great and works flawlessly. The sound quality is also good and has a good combination of bass and clarity for the price. It also has a pin convertor which helps it to use in phones with a single pin and laptops with 2 pins for headphone and mic seamlessly. Cons : The sound is a bit on the low side and when being used in phone which might cause some problem when taking calls in a very noisy surroundings. I found no other problem with this. Overall if you want a great mic with decent sound quality you do not need to look any further

Okay, relied on the comments but they falsified me after all, even though a little.. I’m currently using the headphone for about a month, and as I realized there are a lot of small problems that contributes to making up quite a long “con” list… Anyhow some of the pros and cons are:- • Pros 1. It’s a good headphone for long hours of listening…. 2. Frequency range is also quite high ranging from 20Hz to 20kHz. It means that one can get a clear output of nearly all the pitches made by different instruments… 3. The sound output is totally clear and the bass does not overwhelm it. Obviously that does not mean it does not produce bass 4. Distortion of sound is really less.. 5. The bass produced by it is really nice, nice enough to blow the mind of bass lovers. Its like air is blown into the ears. • Cons 1. Though its meant for long hours of listening, the ears sometimes hurt, especially this headphone is not for guys with big ears. 2. The sound is not loud enough when played in cellphones, even not when connected to a computer. 3. Its must be borne in mind that this headphone is meant for gaming and chat. In this perspective its quite good. The music output is not that rich. 4. At extreme volume the deep bass (by applying proper settings in equalizer) cracks. It cant support that much 5. Lastly music lovers don’t go for it unless there is an urgent requirement for mic. Many better headphones are available at flipkart itself for the same price…
