Philips TAA5508
Score: 81/100Rankings
Philips TAA5508 sport earbuds combine hybrid ANC with wind cancellation, long 31-hour total battery life, and rapid 5-minute quick charge in an IPX5-rated design. The treble is less detailed and codec support is limited to LC3. They target active users needing reliable ANC and endurance.
The Sony WF-C510 are ultra-light true-wireless earbuds offering up to 22 hours of total playback and convenient multipoint Bluetooth. They lack active noise cancellation and premium codecs, limiting audiophile appeal. Ideal for commuters and budget-focused users seeking comfort and long battery life.

Professional reviewers commend the WF-C510 for its feather-light weight, solid 11-hour battery life, and convenient Bluetooth Multipoint capability, positioning it as a strong value proposition in the budget true-wireless segment. However, they note the high-frequency roll-off and absence of ANC or premium codecs, indicating the sound signature may not satisfy audiophiles or users seeking advanced audio features.
Everyday users praise the earbuds for their comfort, long battery life, and easy device switching, highlighting the compact case and IPX4 rating as practical for daily commutes and workouts. Recurring complaints focus on the subdued treble, lack of ANC, and limited information about call quality, suggesting the product is best for casual listening rather than critical audio or noisy environments.
Professional reviewers consider the TAA5508 a solid choice for sport-oriented users, praising its secure fit, adaptive ANC with wind-noise mitigation, strong battery life with quick charge, and clear call performance, while noting that the treble is not as refined as premium competitors.
Everyday users generally express high satisfaction, highlighting comfort, lasting battery, effective ANC during runs, and reliable water resistance, with occasional remarks about the need for sharper high-frequency detail.
