I bought these headphones because I planned on taking more trips out to California from JFK. They seem to be as good as those very expensive headphones, blocking out other noise. It is also safer for your hearing as it blocks out other noise, you don't need to put the volume on that high. I definitely recommend these.

These headphones are small and comfortable. The noise reduction works well on low to mid frequencies. External conversations and music vocals still come through but at reduced volume, easily covered by your own music through the headphones. My biggest complaint is the ridiculous amount of packaging these come in. Basically a whole plastic and cardboard package within another super heavy duty plastic and cardboard package. And...also included is this ugly zipup hard shell covered with fabric case for your headphones. Who keeps their cheap-o headphones in a case? There must be thousands of these in landfills everywhere. In the end there is a total of 2-3 times the weight of the headphones in packaging and other garbage. Philips should be ashamed.
