- 📶 Bluetooth 5.3 with SBC support

The Philips TAT1108BK/97 true wireless earbuds provide a straightforward combination of clear sound, secure in-ear comfort and portable battery life. Their compact black design suits commuting, office use, online classes, calls, podcasts and daily music without adding complex controls or premium features that many users do not need.
Custom 6 mm dynamic drivers reproduce vocals and rhythm clearly, while an AI-assisted microphone uses processing to reduce the effect of unwanted background noise during calls. IPX4 protection handles sweat and light splashes, and the charging case extends total listening time to up to 15 hours.
Custom 6 mm Drivers
The 6 mm dynamic drivers are tuned for clear everyday listening and controlled bass. Because the earbuds use silicone tips to seal the ear canal, correct fit has a significant effect on bass response, stability and passive noise reduction.
AI-Assisted Microphone for Calls
The built-in AI microphone applies an algorithm intended to make speech easier to understand by filtering some environmental noise. It is useful for routine phone and online calls, although wind, traffic, network quality and very loud surroundings can still affect performance.
Up to 15 Hours with the Charging Case
The earbuds provide up to 5 hours of music playback, and the pocket-sized charging case adds approximately 10 more hours. A full charge takes about 2 hours. Actual runtime varies with volume, calls and wireless conditions.
Bluetooth 5.3 and Mono Mode
Bluetooth 5.3 supports compatible phones, tablets and computers at a normal range of up to 10 metres in suitable conditions. Mono mode allows either earbud to be used independently while the other remains in the case, making it useful for calls and extended one-ear listening.
IPX4 Protection and Secure Fit
Three pairs of silicone ear tips are included in small, medium and large sizes. Choosing the correct size improves comfort and helps the earbuds remain stable. IPX4 means resistance to sweat and splashing water; it does not make the earbuds waterproof.

Recommended Uses
Suitable for commuting, work calls, online learning, podcasts, video streaming, casual music, walking and light gym sessions. They do not include active noise cancellation, so customers requiring stronger electronic noise reduction should consider an ANC model.
Care and Safe Listening
Clean the ear tips regularly and let them dry completely before refitting. Wipe moisture from the earbuds and charging contacts before placing them in the case. Do not swim, shower or immerse them. Keep the charging case dry and use moderate volume levels, particularly when the silicone seal reduces surrounding sound.
Why Choose the Philips TAT1108BK/97?
This model is a practical choice for customers who want a secure black in-ear design, modern Bluetooth connectivity, clear calls and enough case-assisted battery life for normal daily routines at an accessible level.
