Are the earbuds noise cancelling? how does this interact with wearing sun glasses? is it comfortable while wearing sun glasses? Thanks!

The sound and stereo separation is very good. I only wear them in the pool so no sunglasses. Cant help you there. They are waterproof and meant for use in the water.

Hi Andrea S., this Sony NWZW273S is not a noise cancelling earbuds but rather suppresses the outside sound especially when the buds are perfectly fitted on your ear. On the other hand depending on what type of sunglasses you use, it may give you comfort or may not. -Ely

Yes, very good noise canceling when they are playing and is comfortable if you wear sunglasses.

No, you can still hear background noise, which is good especially if you street run. Depending on the device, I used 7 Th generation nano, they can play pretty loud. As I mentioned they are great but not if you wear glasses, which I do.

Jonah, these are not noise cancelling head phones so it you're looking to shut yourself off from the world these are not for you. I feel like these were designed for the bast sound, and yeah you can turn it up so you can't hear anything from the outside world if you would like. There is some leakage when you have them turned up. I work next to a lady that pays way too much attention to everyone else and she can hear them when I have them about 75% up. These are meant for the pleasure of the listener.

They do more than most headphones but they are not noise cancelling so not completely. For example without music you CAN hear people talking that are a few feet away, but with music you CAN NOT. Hope this helped. I would recommended these headphones, they're great.

The ones I have are in my opinion not noise-cancelling. They are just simple high quality headphones.

These headphones do not have active noise-cancellation, so in that regard their the same as every other over-the-ear headphone. However, when I'm listening to music on them or playing along with my guitar, I really don't hear any outside noise that is at the ambient level. I am impressed with the sound quality and the workmanship of these headphones, however, and really like the swivel ear cups for quick one-ear listening. Overall, for the price I paid, I'm very happy with the product. Hope this helps.

No, they are not noise cancelling. In fact, I've used mine on flights before. While they block the engine noise better than my earbuds, they are far from completely eliminating the engine noise.

It isn't technically noise canceling considering there's no need for batteries. However, the sound isolation is similar to noise canceling due to the design of the cups. They are really great headphones and keep out most sounds. I use them all the time. Plenty of times my girlfriend has asked for favors that I never heard because these headphones are so boss.

Thanks very much for your question. Fit and comfort with headphones is very individual. That having been said you should be able to use these while wearing glasses. They are wonderful sounding headphones.

Hi Olivia,As an eyeglass wearer myself, I find that these headphones are indeed comfortable while wearing glasses. Like any over the ear headphone, after extended wear, greater than an hour, you may find some discomfort behind your ears wear the glasses can be pressed against the head. I've found so far that this has happened few and far between; a quick readjustment of either the headphones or glasses has resolved the discomfort.

I wear glasses and they do not interfere since they go around the back of the head/neck, beneath the earpieces of glasses. I like them. Very good quality sound. Better than you owuld expect for such a low cost. I use them with MacIntosh and iPhone.

I wear glasses and have no problems with them. They are on-ear however rather than around the the ear. If you have a friend then try before you buy. If you are in the DFW area, give me a holler and Ill let you try mine.

I wear glasses too and I found these are pretty comfortable compared to other large/over the ears headphones I've had. The padding is soft and the length + angle of the individual headphones is adjustable which helps relieve any pressure on your ears/glasses.

sorry for the delayed response. You can change the size of the rubber earbuds, which sort of snap into place. Sony ones work,if that helps.The larger the earbud, the less environmental noise, but not "noise cancelling" like headphones would be. (btw, to drown out hip-hop, I'd use top of the line Bose headphones, or find another gym :-)

I wear glasses as well and the ear pieces are very cushioned. I have even fallen asleep with the glasses on and headset as well!
