End Flight Fatigue! Nothing wears you out faster on a flight than noise! These earbuds filter out the hum or engine noise in the cabin that drives me nuts! I keep them on and in my ears even if I don't have them plugged into anything! Arrive more relaxed without lugging big headsets around. What a deal! February 2, 2012
Good product I got these as a gift. Used them on the airplane and it did filter out some of the plane's drone. Unfortunately, it didn't do much for the crying baby behind me, but the instructions say they won't work on high pitched noise. THese are the first noise-cancelling ear buds I've used, so I can't compare to others, but without switching on the noise feature they are comfortable and work well, and probably only $15 or $20 more than a decent pair without the noise feature, so they seem like a good buy.
