I read these are not noise cancelling headphones, but do they cancel a lot of noise by fitting over the ears?

They do cancel a fair amount of background noise from being over the ears but that is correct that they do not have noise cancelling tech inside of them.

They don't cancel out noise but they can get loud enough to overpower the outside noise
453497
I find that they do reduce noise, and of course, the higher the volume you use, the less outside noise you hear

Yes. It's true they aren't noise canceling, but they do a pretty good job as far as I can tell. My parents complain that I can't hear them calling if I have them on, so that gives you some idea :-)

Well they don't have "active" noise cancelling they do however cancel out a lot of outside noise because of the over the ear design of the earphones... Best $40 I ever spent on Amazon

I'm a man with decent sized ears and they fit nicely over them. They are not technically noise cancelling. Try on a pair of noise cancelling headphones, I'm sure you will find that they are all heavy and bulky. These phones do a nice job of noise cancelling without sacrificing comfort. All MEE headphones whether they are on ear or over ear are very comfortable compared to Beat's!

Noise canceling not certain if that is a claimed feature, but because they are over the ear they do reduce surrounding noise , greatly. I've worn them at the gym, work and cautiously when skateboarding and they completely wipe out sounds

They are not noise cancelling but since they do cover both ears and fit very well there is not a lot of background noise that get thru.

I'm glad you note "noise REDUCTION" because these are not true "noise-cancelling" just because they cover the ear and block out sound to some extent. Noise cancelling is an extra white noise sound that plays throughout use.

They are pretty good when using them. They aren't 100% noise canceling. But you will notice a difference compared to most headphones.

Yes. They do very well for the price. I personally like them a lot. They block out sound like any others would. I mean, if you're in an area where people are being extra loud, loud machinery, etc, then naturally, it won't block that out, but it serves it's purpose. Don't go into buying these expecting them to be total noise cancelling headphones like you'd find in a firing range or something.

They are not noise-cancelling headphones but they definitely reduce external noise very well. In terms of media playback and such, these are quite possibly the best headphones that you will purchase.

Yes, these headphones go over and around the ear and seal to the sides of your head. Although they are not noise-cancelling, I find that they block out most of the ambient noise. I like these headphones a lot but they are fairly heavy.

They are over-ear and do block out most ambient noise. If you're looking for something that lets you hear both music and your environment, these aren't it.

Not really. It's on the large side, and it's not noise canceling. They're open headphones, so people around you will hear what you're listening to if it's loud enough.

they are not noise cancelling. they do though keep out pretty much all sound though and they do get very very loud.

They are not advertised as noise cancelling head phones and do not have the noise cancelling feature. With that said it does seem that you are only able to hear negligible outside noise while wearing. As well there is minimal sound leak.

No, these are not noise cancelling at all. The only noise that is cancelled out is if you crank the volume way up which leads to distortion. If you keep the volume at a decent level you can still hear the outside world fairly well.

They do not seem to be noise canceling. However, they do a decent job at it for non-noise canceling headphones.

Though not actively noise canceling, these headphones do dampen ambient noise. in my experience, these headphones do cancel most sounds in my home, but perhaps not all the sound of a moving train, or a busy crowd. despite this, they managed to cancel out enough noise around you that your music will sound spectacular.

They are pretty snugged on your ears but it's not 100% sound Proof, their is no noise cancelation but it does provide a lot of noise to be blocked off, if you want more detail on noise cancelation for these watch YouTube videos on what they look like, sound like and how they feel live on video to get a better perspective of it.
