Seemed to work well while they worked but be careful of the On/Off button – We bought a set of these for my daughter to use with phones because I had a good experience with the previous version that Kmart had sold. There were no problems with connection, battery or sound but one day while pushing the On/Off button it suddenly gave way and recessed into the body. I didn't think I had pushed it that hard so I had closer look to investigate what was going on and discovered the button is only supported by its electrical connection to a circuit board with no other physical support. I think 9 times out of 10 it won't be a problem because you probably don't have to push it hard to switch it on, but be aware if you push it firmly it mayl break. We returned ours for the cheaper pair they make that handily has a slide power switch.

Thanks for the feedback!
Great for audio books on public transport – The active noise cancelling works! I bought these mainly to listen to audiobooks on planes, trains and buses. They are great, albeit bulky. I’m not after fantastic tone reproduction etc. I just want to be able to hear spoken audio clearly without turning the volume way up to drown out background noise and prevent hearing damage in the process. These really worked. I had the volume at 20% instead of 80% in a noisy environment. Unfortunately my headphones were stolen. I’d gladly buy another pair but Kmart don’t stock them any longer.
OK for music with ANC off. I’ve certainly used better cheap headphones. ANC distorted the music.
Purchased in for $40.
Hi Steve, thanks for your review, we appreciate you sharing your experience with us.
Buy it if you have too – The active noise canceling is good, sound quality is good. Build quality is good and doesn’t feel cheap. The design is anti right to repair and down right anti consumer. Only four Philips head screws are visible and when removed nothing is affected at all. No parts can be removed without breaking apart from the ear protectors AND YOU BETTER HOPE THEY DON’T COME OFF. You CANNOT put them back off. Of course it is theoretically possible to put them back on but after 3 hours of continuous attempts I cannot. You can only get the half you started to go on properly. KEEP THE BOX AND RECIPT so you can use the warranty or get it exchanged. Other than that they are good headphones
