- H8000E Philips are new headphones with noise cancellation
- 40 mm graphene controllers, high -resolution audio and bluetooth airc
- “Easily replaceable” batteries for sustainability
Philips has announced its new competitor in the world of the best headphones that cancel noise, H8000E philips. They are headphones with higher ears with ANC, customization options through the applications of Philips headphones, Bluetooth LE Audio and the next -generation LC3 codec, Bluetooth Aortact, 50 hours of battery life with the ANC (70 with it ), and even replaceable batteries for repair.
That is many things, but so far something is missing: the price. Philips has described these headphones as “average range”, but that could mean anything from less than $ 150 to less than $ 250 depending on their particular point of view.
They should be launched in September 2025 in the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe, which means that they will have an interesting moment that will probably compete with the Sony Wh-000xm6 that is expected to be launched in the summer, and also a low price for The existing Sony Wh-1000xm5.
Therefore, it is good that they have some advantages over Sony currently, with the largest that is probably the 50 -hour battery duration: Sony headphones achieve 30 hours with the Ance on.
There is also future proof support for the LC3 codec, which is capable of higher resolution and a better quality sound in general, while using less power, which is not yet totally common among premium headphones.
And like Sony’s headphones, they support the highest Bluetooth LDAC codec.
There are five levels of selectable noise cancellation power through the application, and the promise that ‘the microphones of AI’ will help the quality of the calls.
There is a folding design that is good for traveling, and they are light. Philips says that they also have some sustainability objectives, with recycled plastic in construction, and “easily replaceable integral batteries and removable pads” with the aim of using them for years and years (hopefully the batteries are easier to replace than the last headphones that Ifixit tried to repair).
With eight months to the end until they will be launched, we hope that Philips has really proposed the quality of the sound, the characteristics and the planned price of these cans, because a batch It may have changed in the world of the best headphones by then. I would not be surprised to see new models before, not only from Sony but also Sennheiser.
