    Even superfluous DSP programmes and a poor quick-start guide within the app cannot prevent the Philips from catapulting itself clearly into first place among Bluetooth headphones with ANC in the price league up to 400 euros. Acoustically, it asserts itself with almost frightening sovereignty even against the strongest competition: Neither Sony nor beyerdynamic nor JBL have a proven way to get the Fidelio...
