Is it really noise isolating?

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.

They work well. Key word is "isolate." I could still hear outside noises; they simply did not interfere with (or dampen the quality of) whatever I was playing in my ears. (...as mentioned by others.) Love the price. Will purchase a couple more sets.

Any earbud provides SOME noise isolation and some with tight-fitting eartips do better. Although I really like the JBuds sound and comfort (and the price!), the noise isolation doesn't seem any better than any other earbud set I've used. Some ear canals are harder to fit than others, though, so some of the sound leakage might be due to MY ear canals.

Not sure I understand what you mean by noise isolating. They do not prevent you from hearing ambient sounds. You can hear people talking to you, etc. I haven't used them in my car enough to know if you can hear emergency sirens, but I expect you can.

They won't prevent you from hearing loud noises like say a motorcycle or truck when your out jogging,walking, etc (which may be a good thing) but they do a decent job of letting you hear the music with minimum interference. I think they are worth the price. You can spend more for better earbuds but if your looking for decent sound without high price they are worth the money.

I have had this item for some time and have never noticed a noise. I am pretty sensitive to noise, so I'd say no.

I'm not so sure about containing sound. It breaks up a room well, but I don't think it would be what you might consider an incredible sound barrier.

when its up on max, people next to you can hear ithowever you cannot hear people well with it on, even with no music playing, so yes isolation is good for you, not for others, lol

I did use it on airplane and noise isolation was acceptable. It is not the same as active noise cancellation but if you keep volume high enough and use right tips, you should be able to achieve decent isolation

No, it's super quiet. No one would know what you were doing. The only noise it makes is a soft suction noise, but only you and maybe the person next to you would be able to hear it.

Yes, I would say there is a decent amount of noise isolation, though perhaps not as much as those soft type that completely block the ear canal.

Not particularly. I used it for sanding and the noise needs to be lessened with earplugs.

They don't actively cancel noise but they a pretty good job of isolating. And if somebody can here the sound coming from them, you are probably going deaf from the volume.

It is not silent. It makes a noticeable fluttering sound as it operates. But it does work well.

No. No noise at all. 100% happy/satisfied with this purchase. Product meets or exceeds all expectations. Good luck!

It is not silent and it is not noisy. You can easily hold a conversation while standing next to it. It is quieter than window air conditioners I've been around. If it is running next to the head of the bed while you are trying to sleep, there is no doubt you will know it is there. Will it annoy you? My wife is phonophobic and on low speed it didn't bother her: she described it as a white noise she could overlook.

Noise isolation only keeps background noise from ruining the sound of your music.

To be honest its a little on the noisier side. If u put it in an enclosed space or box it does eliminate some of the noise.

They block out ambient noise well but are not noise cancelling. At best, you might consider these "noise isolating".

It's not completely silent, but I don't believe it's loud. It doesn't squeeze pretty tight, so you do have to get used to that!
