Does this microphone block unwanted background when on the phone?

The noise isolation is provided by the interchangeable foam or plastic plugs; that part that is actually inserted into your ear. They are never not isolating sound. This isn't active noise cancelling that can be turned on and off and requires power. These ear buds are more like simple ear plugs an industrial worker might use, but with a high-quality ear bud speaker embedded behind them.

It does not have a microphone on it. You can buy an optional cable set with in-line microphone for an additional $50. iPhone: Shure CBL-M+-K-EFS Music Phone Cable with Remote + Mic (Three-Button Control) Android: Shure CBL-M-K Music Phone Cable with Remote + Mic (One-Button Control)

This is NOT a microphone. It's a quality set of onstage personal monitor type ear buds or eye phones,lol.

yes to both questions, it has a mic jack that you can plug the directional mic into and as for the backgroundnoise go to the filter settings and set to the percent you desire filtered out mine goes up to 40 percent of the low end noise I use it for live recordings all the time at church setting in the pew and I can cut out the movement around me.

No, it doesn't mute your voice when you tuck the mic in, but I'm sure there's a way to manually mute yourself through your device.

Yes it does. My phone is run by android and it works great. Only the is when I'm not in a call and I hit the mic button my music starts playin. By itself.

Thanks for the reply,Does it only mask other people's music if you have music on? Like Bradley I want mostly noise cancelation, not too much worried about music. Thanks again

The mask itself does not cancel out the background noise. It help reduce some but not much, may be just 10%. What I did was to use wax ear plug (also available on Amazon) to cancel out the background noise and use the mask to block the light (which is good and comfortable)

These phones do not cancel out ambient noise. They do seal pretty well around the ears and, as far as I can tell, unless the volume is cranked way up, nobody can hear what I'm listening to.

It should cancel out the noise, but they are a bit bulky. If you want to hear voices some others allow those sounds to be heard while filtering the white noise. If you don't care about voices, these are great and very affordable.

No it does NOT, however it blocks 80% of the external sound very well. (100% if you crank it up like I do.)

Not exactly sure if device itself has a mute feature, but if you mute the call using mute option on device, you should achieve desired result

I have only used the microphone during a phone call one time but the person seemed to hear me just fine. The music/media completely stops and my phone begins to vibrate (I keep my phone on vibrate but if I had a ringtone I'm assuming my ring tone would come on since the music turns off). I hope this helps.

not to my knowledge. You would have to mute your phone just as if you had microphone/headphones in.

I have not had a problem with microphone in the past, but it works like charm when listening to music and making phone calls.

Good question, There are holes in the case corresponding to the microphone holes. It doesn't seem to affect quality, judging from the voicemails I've heard of my voice left with this phone.

Honestly I can't say. I haven't used it as I use headphones with a mic attached to them when I make calls so I know I hear the other person clearly directed in my ears and they hear me nicely while I keep my phone tucked away in my pocket. Try looking up a youtube feature and see if anyone has used that feature specifically or commonly. Sorry I couldn't give you a direct answer.

Correction, I was responding about a different device. I use the phones with my Apple Nano, so I don't use the mic at all.

I have not tried this myself, i use them for the computer. There is no button to use voice control so you would have to hit the button on the phone itself, but the microphone itself is of very high quality. It is mono-directional so background noise would be minimal compared to a wire-mounted mic, and because it sits close to your face the sound of your voice will be very clear. I don't know if the iphone would properly detect the microphone because i have never tried it. I will try it with my Iphone 5S and see if things work as they should. I hope that helps
