OVC Active Noise Cancelling Earphones, 60 Hours ANC Playtime in Ear Earbuds, Dual Driver wired headphone, Bass Enhancement, Volume Control with Microphone, 3.5mm Plug for Android Samsung Huawei Xiaomi

These arrived quickly and at £30 are at the low end of price for noise cancelling headphones. They are similar in format to the Bose QC20 at £180, that is, in ear buds with a lozenge shaped package of electronics in line near the end of the cable. The Cable and components look and feel robust enough to last. The lozenge as well as having the USB port for recharging has a single button for turning on the the noise cancelling feature. The rest of the controls are on the cable near to the point where the cable splits for the left and right ear peaces. It has three control buttons as we as a slider switch to turn on or off the bass boost capability which really does make a difference to the sound quality produced.I was disappointed with the noise cancelling on two levels. Firstly turning it on seems to mute the base boost feature and seems to effectively reduce the volume. Secondly the noise cancellation is nit particularly effective even with the consisting rumbling background noises that others excel at such as engine noise.They come with a selection of ear buds so I have had no issues with fit. The case is also well made an comes complete with USB charging cable and air line adaptor. As for making calls they are excellent, the microphones and noise cancelling make a positive improvement to the call quality for the person I'm calling compared to ordinary head headsets. I have had no problems with battery life at all but not tested it enough to prove that the noise cancelling last 60 hours but after a week of normal use they have not gone flat.They are value for money but don't expect noise cancelling at the standard of Bose QC products.

I chose these headphones after reading the reviews, but when I used them last month on a flight to America, I found turning on the noise cancelling function had no effect (turning the Bass enhancement on or off made no difference). When I returned, I e-mailed the support team at OVC with the problem and asking for help. They replied straight away saying the unit must be defective and sent another one. I haven't flown since to test the new ones, but there is a difference to the sound when I turn the noise cancelling function on, so I'm hopeful these will be ok.

First impressions are good, they come in a nice zip up case and seem quite well built.The sound quality is fair for the money although my standard Samsung Galaxy buds are noticeably louder.The silicone inserts are a good fit so noise isolation is fair.However, noise cancellation is not existent.I wasn't expecting total silence or for it to cope with irregular noise but I did expect a reduction from regular machine noise, not unlike a constant aircraft engine drone. There was absolutely no difference other than a reduction in music volume when ANC was turned on.As I don't want to spend £200+ on Bose and the like I may just try and find a decent pair of noise isolating buds instead.Battery life rated as 5* as I returned them before the battery ran out, so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.

Nice headphones that arrived quick, but the noise cancelling is not amazing (when compared to my Bose headphones but you get what you pay for after all). Headphones come with extra earbuds to different buds sizes and the the cord material is great for helping to untangle

I had an older version of these headphones, which were really good. They cancelled noise well, the earbuds were comfortable, and they were excellent for the price.They have changed the design, now, so the earbuds are really uncomfortable and don't passively block much noise at all. On top of this, the active noise cancellation barely does anything. I don't know whether I just have a duff unit, but the old ones were much better.Further, the microphone on mine does not work. I have contacted OVC twice to claim under their so-called 18-month warranty, and have not heard back.Do not buy.

I love listening to music and I have change a lot of earphone before finding those what allow me to enjoy every sound and kind of music, without spend too much money. This is the perfect compromise. More expensive arphones didn't give me the same experience of this one. The ear tips ergonomics allow a good adherence and it is perfect also during the jogging. During this activity, the noise cancelling device makes them a little bit bulky, but this problem is resolved through the gudget (grip) provided with the earphone.Already without noise cancelling they isolate very well from noise, but in presence of a continous intrusively noise, the noise cancelling function can be useful. I'm fully satisfied.

I bought this earphones for traveling, becouse it has active noise cancelation, but this not somthing super, sound quality aswel. Earphones quite biger that others, aswel i don't like Braided Nylon. Bass is week even when you use bass buton to increase.

Overall everything does exactly that they said it would. Great product with great sound. Professional little carry case and and aeroplane splitter also included so very impressed by the team at OVC audio.The bass boost does not work with the noise cancelation on but it states that in the manual, which is worth a read if you want the best from your product. If you have any issues with the product the OVC customer service team seem very helpful and customer orientated so worries there. Perfect for a music lover or someone who just listens when they're on a jog etc
