For phone conversation its not that good unless you are in a quiet place. Great for running and listening to music while you workout.

Noise cancellation is great, they plug into your ears. The sound quality is awesome!

I can't tell you mine never worked and when I reached out to the seller to try to get the problem fixed they refuse to answer me over and over again so I got a crap piece of headphones

It was ok while they worked. I got two pair. One each for my wife and I. Both went bad in less than a month. I even did replace one pair after a week. Second pair went bad again. Junk. I had hoped for better being Motorola.

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.

I have had people say to me when I turn the headset on in the middle of a conversation that the noise on there end is very load and hurts there ear. This is the first I've herd about the muting noise. Overall I'm very pleased with the head set. It works great for noise cancellation.

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

It all depends on the volume I set it on and if it is too noisy around me. They are pretty good in a normal scenario; that includes the noise canceling.

Absolutely not... That was my only complaint with them though. I just purchased a set of Turtle Beach X12s that have decent noise cancelling. I had a set of Sound Blaster 3d Alphas that also did a fairly good job of noise cancelling. In this price range those other two choices are probably your best bet.Edit: None of the aforementioned sets have active noise cancelling. I am speaking strictly of their ability to block out background noise with minimal volume. For instance right now I am softly listening to music on the Turtle Beach x12s and I can't hear my roomate's rather loud and annoying girlfriend sitting right behind me. Absolutely not...

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.

They arent noise canceling but the ear cups do a good job of blocking out background noise. I've only used these in an office environment and they did well blocking out some ambient and background noise but again they do not have NC technology.

I do not think that is true. If they do cancel noise, I have not noticed it. Still great headphones, but I would not say they are noise cancelling.

Mark, they are pretty good at drowning out background noise. I love mine! They have a great sound as well & are very comfortable!

No, it is not noise canceling. You will hear everything going on in the room while wearing the headphones. No mic

If your asking about background noise threw the earbud it isn't too bad. I worked as a security supervisor for a 100,000 square foot club that holds 6000 people with live LOUD music and had no problems hearing the calls. I do need to warn you about the quality of these headsets if your job is physical . I was frequently in take downs so mine took a beating. I went threw 4 of these in a year. I had bought some for a few of our door guys and they loved them! No problems as far as wear and tear on thiers. Hope this helps.

Hi Jobin - You know, I really don't use them much, so I really can't comment. I went back and see if they work, and they do, and there doesnt seem too much background noise. Hope that helps.

Yes it's noise canceling. The bass is very good and the drivers are incredible. Very good head set.

I cannot understand why you would want to? Noise-cancellation is very helpful and eliminates background distractions when talking to other people online. Again, it's why Sennheiser is the best out there.

The noise cancellation is pretty good, they do a good job of making things quite, they could block out the sound if they where playing music

They don't completely cancel out all the noise. If you want a cheap option, it's good. But if you want better noise cancellation, I'd go with a higher end headphone. I have to turn noise cancelling on plus play music for it to drown out any sounds around me.
