I've read that many people have trouble keeping them in, but I had no problem doing so while jogging, jumping around, using public tansport, etc, although that might be due to my odd ear shape. I've also noticed from other people using these headphones is that there's pretty much no sound leakage, meaning you can drive up the volume without bothering the guy sitting next to you, although they don't really block outside noise too well (still bet...more

Premium Review Philips SBC HE590: Great value for sound, but might not fit you (261 words)

After struggling to find a pair of earbuds that I find comfortable (all but the gummi-style earbuds are too large for me, and I dislike the feel of the gummi-style ones), I've finally found these little beauties. They offer great sound quality for the price (at least compared to a sennheiser pair that cost twice as much), with a very effective virtual surround sound feature (quite often you'll be able to hear the position of most of the instruments), and can go very, very loud. I've read that many people have trouble keeping them in, but I had no problem doing so while jogging, jumping around, using public tansport, etc, although that might be due to my odd ear shape. ...  Read the complete review

These headphones have great quality sound, when i read the words "virtual surround sound" i wondered how that was possible, but it is. You sit there wondering how this stuff is working, but get used it and enjoy it. They can be a little fiddley to get in the right position, but when they are, they stay, it may be a little painful to get them there, but only a little, nothing worth moaning about. I only got them a week or so back so cant really comment on the reliability yet. One bigger problem however is that they definatly aren't very discreet, anyone around you can hear your tunes, which is fine if you want them to, but midway through a lecture or the like ...  Read the complete review

I recently bought these headphones and i had to review them and to be totally honest the sound is absolutly amazing and the price of these things is really good too i picked them up for £6.00 on ebay brand new and they are going for even less now but that is where the love story ends because unless you have ear canels the size of the grand canyon you have no chance of keeping these in your ears i mean ok walking down the street you may get the odd pull that pulls them out but no these fall out when not your not even moving, i even tried using the extra different shaped buds that came with them but guess what no change still to big, they only stay in if you take the buds ...  Read the complete review
