Handy full remote ; Comfortable earpieces

Wired remote reduces wireless benefits ; Flabby bass ; Remote gets annoying ; Occasionally glitchy wireless

The Phiaton PS 20 BT wireless Bluetooth earphones are a strange mix of good and bad. They offer a remote housing both adds handy functionality and acts as a practical pain in the backside. And while they sound better than most Bluetooth earphones,...

This review would have been a lot simpler were it restricted to evaluating the PS 20 BT’s sound quality and discussing the improvements that Bluetooth 3.0 have brought to the table. The fact is, the PS 20 BT sound excellent as a headphone in general...

High-quality audio performance for the price. Considerable bass response, which is rare for Bluetooth. Call clarity is solid. Easy, quick pairing process.

High-quality audio performance for the price. Considerable bass response, which is rare for Bluetooth. Call clarity is solid. Easy, quick pairing process. ; No AC adapter is included; just a USB cable. Shirt clip is in awkward spot.

Conclusions The pricing for the PS 20 BT is identical to the Phiaton PS 20 NC ($149, 4 stars), which is a wired, noise-canceling model with very similar frequency response. Obviously the differences between the two in the audio realm come from one...

Strong audio performance with pleasant low-frequency response. Can be used in passive (non-noise-canceling mode) without affecting sound. Better-than-average noise cancellation. No distortion at high volumes. Secure fit.

Battery compartment on cable can be cumbersome. Uses non-rechargeable batteries.

Fair noise cancellation with an absolute minimum of distortion, the Phiaton PS 20 NCs aren’t a bad entry-level option.

Well priced, comfortable, great sound, good looking, provides a degree of noise cancellation, plays even when the battery is dead, comes with an airplane adapter and a luxurious carry pouch

Missing the foam earpieces found on other models, noise cancellation could be better, the clip seems cheap

I surely do. Phiaton has done a commendable job of making an affordable, great sounding product that sells at a price that I haven't seen in the noise cancellation market. I believe that just about anyone will be happy with these comfortable and quite...

After living with the Phiaton PS 20 NC's for a while, we didn't really feel that we gained much over certain in-ear headphones that provide excellent passive noise cancellation. Although sonic performance is impressive, the active noise cancellation...

The Phiaton PS 20 NCs are certainly not a bad entry-level option. Their tracking is a bit off, and they’re not the most robust units, but they offer acceptable audio quality with decent active noise cancellation if you elect to use it. While they do...

Clear, refined, and transparent sound; well-weighted and punchy bass; immersive presentation

May be uncomfortable for those with smaller outer ears; mediocre passive noise isolation

The earphones score high marks for real-world usability as well – there are no oversights in the design aside from the size of the housings, which is a result of the large drivers chosen for the earphones, and the moderate isolation, which results from...
