Philips Announces the TAG5106 Wireless Gaming Headset
MMD, the leading display specialist and brand license partner for Philips monitors, announces the launch of an all-new premium gaming headset designed for gamers seeking the ideal combination of comfort, superior sound performance, and advanced wireless technologies. Equipped with a dual wireless system supporting both 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth, the Philips TAG5106 offers a true two-in-one solution that delivers advanced quality in gaming audio as well as mobile music, all in a single sleek, award-winning product.
"Today's gamers are looking for gaming headphones that deliver on their promises, and the Philips TAG5106 meets every expectation. With its dual wireless system supporting both 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth, this headset combines flexibility, comfort, and sound quality that really packs a punch," said Ilkan Reyhanoglu, Product Manager of IT Accessories at MMD Monitors & Displays.Superior sound for superior gaming
When it comes to creating a truly immersive gaming experience, the sound is every bit as important as graphics. Equipped with DTS Headphone:X 2.0 next-gen 7.1 channel surround sound technology, the Philips TAG5106 delivers enhanced bass rendering, audio clarity, and proximity cues, as well as a new level of distance awareness that differentiates between near-field and far-field audio. This creates an exceptional sense of realism that places gamers at the centre of the action, allowing them to enjoy the experience like never before. But the Philips TAG5106 goes a step further, with custom-tuned 50 mm drivers tuned by professional acoustic engineers to provide rich and accurate sound so precise that gamers can hear approaching footsteps, giving them the competitive upper hand that they seek. Finally, a detachable unidirectional noise-cancelling microphone offers the added benefit of enabling gamers to communicate with their teammates clearly and easily.
The Philips TAG5106 is also the ideal choice for those looking for more than just gaming performance. In addition to 2.4 GHz wireless technology, which can deliver reliable, lossless gaming audio with ultra-low latency on PC, Mac, and PlayStation, these headphones feature simultaneous Bluetooth connectivity for mobile devices. Gamers can conveniently swap between 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth wireless connection at the click of a button, ensuring maximum flexibility. Ultra-long 45-hour battery life provides hours of enjoyment, whether gaming or listening to music or other audio content. And regardless of how they're used, the Philips TAG5106 headphones provide extreme comfort thanks to an award-winning ergonomic design that includes an adaptive head beam and ear pads with leatherette and memory foam to ensure comfort that's both long-lasting and stylish.
Pricing and availability
The Philips TAG5106 will be available for purchase now at the price of £74.99.

7 Comments on Philips Announces the TAG5106 Wireless Gaming Headset
They connect with a fairly standard 3-pin connector, but are as you can see, often glued in.
Third party replacements seem to cost around $15-20.
Not sure how Philips has done it in this headset, but I'm sure it's not that different.
To be honest, I have no idea what batteries cost on these particular devices, but $15-20 doesn't seem all that bad assuming you're getting a couple of years out of them and frequently use the headphones. :toast:
