Most Liked Positive Review

Good for G1 iPhones

The headphones are actually very nice. They don't have quite the response of my gaming headphones but they are far preferrable to the iPhone earbuds. The speakers sit comfortably on my ears and the entire set folds up nicely. The two problems I've encountered are how uncomfortable the band is while using them and the difficulty in wrapping the cord. The first problem is solved by wearing a hat. The headband is rather hard and wearing a ball cap fixes the issue. The other has a solution already built-in: the headphones come with a pouch in which to keep them. Simply dump the cord in there when you stow the 'phones.

Honestly, the best thing is that they work fine with my first generation iPhone. The casing on the iPhone made it difficult or impossible to firmly connect audio cables aside from the Apple brand earbuds. These headphones fit perfectly.

The headphones are modest in their noise cancelling ability which is what they "tout" on the label. Cord is too short for use when attempting to use with computer and don't allow for movement at desk. For the price, they could have included an AAA battery and is was disconcerting to get home and realize that, in very small print "battery required" was on part of the package. The least they could have done was print "BATTERY NOT INCLUDED" on the label, thereby saving a trip to purchase one!!! I have other products by same maker and am used to better quality and upfront advertising from them!

I have been using this product while air traveling for 3 years and I can't say enough good things about them. Compact, comfortable and excellent sound. A real bargain and comparable to Bose.

Comments about Sony Noise Canceling Headphones:

I use for transcribing. It is very comfortable on ears, not so much on top of head. Earpiece is flat, soft and fits snug to ear which really helps drown out surrounding noise so I can concentrate on what I am listening to!

Comments about Sony Noise Canceling Headphones:

Fantastic sound... These headphones will take you to another world...until the chord of death entangles itself into your own personal hell! The chord is unmanageable, can not break it in. It keeps wrapping around itself until it becomes a ball of twisted mess. I get so upset with the chord that I lose focus on the enjoyment of the great audio coming from the headphones... Sony really skimped on the materials used to make the chords that its hardware uses. Such a small thing and it makes such a huge difference! Grr!

We have tried several TV earsets to block the sound so others don't hear it and none of them worked that great. We purchased these earphone and it is THE BEST.

Comments about Sony Noise Canceling Headphones:

Not a good product at all compared to the competition. The only noise-canceling it seems to do is when your music is turned all the way up!

Also ears start hurting after wearing it for about 10-15 minutes ... very poor product for the price I paid.
