The good: Earbud-style noise-canceling headphones; lanyard has an appealing convenience factor; earbuds fit comfortably in your ear; decent sound.
The bad: The noise-cancellation circuitry is too subtle; shy on bass compared to other earbud-style headphones in this price range; extension cord is too long.
The bottom line: The Philips SHN7500 earbud-style headphones have a unique design that's well-suited to frequent flyers, but their noise cancellation is lackluster.

Nice styling, lousy performance

Summary: These were purchased immediately prior to going on a long haul flight. The packaging advertises 80% noise cancellation, which is more than 10dB. The pair I bought gave no perceptible reduction in background noise during the flight, although they worked well as (expensive!) passive headphones. I have a supra-aural pair which I acquired in the early 90's, and I used to work with the team that developed the active noise cancellation system that went into the UK Warrior Armoured Fighting Vehicle in the 1980's, so I know what ANC should sound like. Considering that these cost me €69, I consider them to be extremely poor value for money.
