How good is noise isolation?

I'm really satisfied with the noise isolation, even though these don't have any switch to enable it. I think they isolate about 70% - 80% of external noise by themselves. Hope this helps!

I suppose it depends on what types of noise you are trying to not hear.. I wear them to bed and I don't hear anything but the audio book I am listening to.. I took them on my recent flight and I didn't hear the hum of the plane while in flight.. so I personally find they are pretty good at blocking out outside noises.. But I don't use them for any high end work or need to use them for any such, I am purely a casual user (over age 35), I don't have to turn the volume way up to reduce outside noise either. I hope this helped!

I have used it - the big difference is in the headsets. You need good noise canceling headsets.

Not that good really, that will also depend how you wear them in our ears and which in-ear tips size(4 size available).With the music playing loud you may not hear outside noise. I would say isolation is about 50%, enough for medium noise environment.

I feel that the padding works pretty well as noise cancelling. If you have music playing at a moderate volume, the padding and the music is enough for you to not hear pretty much anything.

The noise isolation is very good but not perfect, and they come with a very nice carry pouch. Their quality is superb, especially if you want good bass.

Yes, they are noise isolated. And I discovered, after very careful manipulation, that you can bend them to fit your head. Before that I was ready to trash them!

haven't tried that yet, but while working out, and it gets pretty noisy, I can't here the other machines while I'm listening, so I'd rate them about an 8 on noise cancelling. I'm thinking they would do just fine.

Yes there is; it is reduced but the isolation is no way as good as say the BeyerDynamic DT 1350 (say 60-70% of it, subjectively) - DT is like a gold standard. If you are in a faintly noisy environment, it probably is fine. It may even be ok in an aircraft with general noise around you, but in a dead quiet place (or room), the sounds emanating will be heard.

Noise pollution is very small. I can have volume on my Samsung S3 on max level and if I'm on bus, my neighbour can't hear. If the bus were to stop he might hear something but on normal listening level, which is 2 hits below the max, people around usually can't hear anything. Isolation isn't perfect but I is good and I sure was surprised by it.

It is not bad. We use it in a room with other ambient noise so we don't notice it at all. In a super quiet room you may hear it.

Yes the noise cancellation is really good. I travel a ton so I have used it on every size plane. It's not as good as the Bose Quiet Comfort, but it is pretty damn close.

For the price id say it's very good at blocking out external noise. An aside; if you fidget with the headphone jack area it may be a scratchy connection. Eventually these types of headphones just lose connection and one side will play and all sorts of stuff. But I love them while they laat

The sound isolation is pretty great. Nobody can ever hear what I'm listening to, and at mid to higher volumes I can't hear anything around me. Once you turn the volume down pretty low, you can hear outside noise, but for the most part they cancel noise ridiculously well for the price. Comparable to headphones that cost twice as much and more.

I have used them on public transportation. They do a pretty good job of keeping room-level noise out (e.g. nearby conversations), but you'll hear louder noises like a train running through tunnels, etc. I think the noise suppression is fine but not remarkable.

Isolating? Yes. Canceling? No. If you get a good fit, they block a lot of the ambient noise but as others have mentioned they do not block out everything. I've used them in airliners and they help. Not as good as the expensive noise canceling buds but they do help. JLab sells replacement silicone tips that have an additional flange which may improve the fit and thus the isolation.

The noise is not significant, and you'll get used to it the more you use it. The unit is most effective the more you use it.

They are not studio quality isolation, they are just slightly better than the old foam Walkman headphones. I do like them for playing on the computer but my wife can definitely hear the noise.
