lowest frequency
7 Hz
The lowest frequency at which the device produces audio. The lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.
highest frequency
40000 Hz
The highest frequency at which device produces audio. The higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.
driver unit size
40 mm
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device. Bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
impedance
16 Ohms
Impedance is the device’s electrical resistance to the current being pushed through it. The lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power.
sound pressure level
90 dB/mW
Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
has a neodymium magnet
✔Philips PH805
Devices with neodymium magnets are lighter and more powerful than those which use ferrite magnets. They also have more bass and clear high notes.
has passive noise reduction
✔Philips PH805
The device sits tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal which reduces background noise and prevents your music from leaking out.
Power
Battery life
30 hours
The device's battery life (when in use) as given by the manufacturer. With a longer battery life you have to charge the device less often.
Battery life (ANC)
25 hours
The battery life when using active noise cancellation (ANC), as given by the manufacturer.
charge time
2 hours
The time it takes to fully charge the battery.
Has USB Type-C

✖Philips PH805
It supports a wireless charging standard such as Qi. To charge the device, you simply put it down on a compatible charging pad.
battery power
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. More battery power can be an indication of longer battery life.
Has a solar power battery
✖Philips PH805
A solar battery takes its energy from light, and stores it in a self-recharging battery which never needs to be changed.
has a rechargeable battery
✔Philips PH805
The battery can be recharged and used over again.
Connectivity
Connectivity
Wireless
The connectivity type of the headphones.

has aptX Adaptive
✖Philips PH805
aptx Adaptive is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps), which means it can adjust the bit rate for different scenarios, such as listening to HD audio or reducing interference from other devices.
has aptX
✖Philips PH805
aptX is a codec used for transmitting audio wirelessly with Bluetooth. It is developed by Qualcomm, and supports 16-bit audio at a bit rate of 384kbps.
has LDAC
✖Philips PH805
LDAC is a codec developed by Sony for Bluetooth audio. It is capable of a very high bitrate of 990kbps, which provides high resolution audio. It can also automatically adjust to a lower bitrate of 330kbps or 660kbps to increase stability.
has aptX Low Latency
✖Philips PH805
aptX Low Latency is a codec developed by Qualcomm. It uses Bluetooth 5.0 technology to provide low latency audio (around 40ms), which is useful when you want to avoid audio lag (e.g. when playing games).

✖Philips PH805
aptX HD is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It supports high quality 24-bit audio (at a bit rate of 576kbps).
has aptX Lossless
✖Philips PH805
aptX Lossless is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It supports high quality 16-bit/44.1kHz audio (at a maximum bit rate of 1200kbps). This codec provides CD-quality audio without any loss of data.
has AAC
✖Philips PH805
AAC is a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Features
has a noise-canceling microphone
✔Philips PH805
These microphones are designed to filter out background noise from the desired sound. Especially useful in noisy environments.
has ambient sound mode
✔Philips PH805
Ambient sound mode uses microphones to pass through ambient noises so that they can still be heard. It’s useful when you want to listen to music but also be aware of what’s happening around you, for example when you’re jogging but still want to be able to hear traffic.
