"Excellent headphones at an even better price!"
Pros: Great noise cancelling function, works really well when commuting
Overall sound quality is good for the priceCons: A bit of a tight fit for people who need smaller ear buds.
Summary: I picked these earbuds up at the local electronic shop here in Tokyo for only $49. I spend a long time commuting each day and wanted to cut the noise of the train out so I don't have crank my music to drown out the noise around me. These headphones don't completely drown out the sound but pretty close to it.
The overall build quality of the headphones are good for the price and come with 3 different size ear bud attachments to fit any ear size. This is pretty much standard when you buy any earbuds now a days.
The noise cancelling device is a little bulky but tolerable. The device has a monitor button that really allows you instantly turn off the music and cancel the noise cancellation allowing you hear people speaking to you or in my case listen to train announcements.
My only real complaint with the headphones are that they are a earbud/inner earbud hybrid. If you find it hard to wear traditional flat round ear buds like I do then you may feel some discomfort when wearing these. They fit snuggly into your ears however they tend to stretch your ear like a traditional earbud.
If you don't mind traditional ear buds then these are highly recommended if you can find them at a decent price.
