I have bought this philips earplug a few days back. I was using an expensive skull candy headphone which I lost somewhere in the middle of a trek excursion. I was on a budget constraint so I kept searching online for a durable earplug within Rs. 400/-. To my utter surprise, Philips SHE1405WT/94 was priced only Rs. 300/- under some sale. I compared the price on all available shopping sites before purchasing. Again I went through all the reviews on various sites. Trust me Philips is a very good brand & people like me who are on a budget constraint and looking for a decent earphone can give this a try. It has an amazing bass & exceptional sound clarity. Looks wise it is quite sturdy. I am not sure about the durability but hope it gives a decent run with respect to the money. The only con would be that one ear or both might start paining if they are plugged in for a very long time. Hope this helps!
