Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have been using these for a couple months now and wanted to write a review since I debated for months before putting down the money on them. Some of the reviews were not real promising and I was really concerned with spending money on headphones yet again that didn’t deliver. I use these almost exculsively for traveling. I fly a couple times a week and have used the over ear Bose headphones for years but they tend to be too bulky and hard to sleep in. I have loved these so far but let me explain what they do and don’t do. Unlike the over ear headphones, they don’t drown out all outside noise. Even with the noise cancelling feature turned on, you can still hear someone speaking to you if they are right next to you and can still hear the announcements in the cabin although depending on the volume you may have to turn off the noice canceling to understand them. I am okay with this because that isn’t the noise I am trying to get rid of. What these headphones do great is remove the background noices such as the airplane engines. They also bring out the clarity in the music or movies you are watching which reduces the incendental background noises like babies crying or just general noice from people talking, although once again, not completely. For me, it’s never enough to be annoying or prevent me hearing my movie. They are very comfortable to wear and can sleep in them with no problem. I love that you can turn the noise cancelling feature off and still use the headphones. It saves on the battery when it’s not needed. (The over ear headphones stopped working if the battery died.) They are also rechargabable and I have went a couple weeks a without recharging them. Just keep in mind that I only use them a couple times each week. One other note on these that may help if you purchase them. I originally thought they didn’t work very well, but tried the next larger size of ear buds, (they come with 3 sizes), and going to larger size that I thought would be too big improved the noice cancelling feature 100%.
