Summary: Good performance at a decent price...not the best if you travel a lot. 2007-05-13
Comment: The noise reduction in these headphones is good, and they don't drain the battery fast. As long as the phones are fitted tight to your ear, the noise reduction works pretty well. If you travel a lot, like I do, you'd want a stronger headband than these have. The folding function is good, and they're compact when folded up and put in the included carrying bag. But when you travel a lot, like I do, the folding parts of the phones wear out pretty quick. The function still works well, but I'm trying to figure out a way to reinforce the headband so it clamps better to my ear. It's a bummer there's not a better midlevel, more durable folding noise reduction headphones that are at a midlevel pricepoint.

Summary: Great for the noisy office 2007-04-03
Comment: I got these because of construction going on at my office. I didn't have the budget to buy the big boys, or even the need--just wanted something to help drown out the buzz. I've used them on airplanes as well and they're a big step up from standard headphones in both environments--just enough noise reduction to improve my attitude and retain my sanity at the end of the day. Comfort is decent for us low-budget types. Sound quality is as good as standard foam on-ear headphones--not fabulous--but for the features at the price (I paid about $35) I'm very happy!

Summary: OMG THEY SUCK 2004-08-25
Comment: Omg, I got these headphones and they suck!!! I am not even kidding, they are probably the worst headphones in the world and the worst headphones i've had in my life...first of all, when you listen to music there is a loud hissssss noise in the backround, second, these don't even fit over your freakin ears...haha, also, they are tooo bulky, you can't do anything with them...the sound quality is ok...but if your looking for noise cancelling headphones, i dont recommend these, i recommend the sony fontopia headphones or the 120 dollar sony noise cancelling headphones that are ear buds and not too bulky (availible at brookstones)...now those are what you call great, these panasonic earfones are just horrible compared to these, it only takes out like a little of the noise, but the sony 120 dollar ones at brookstone takes out 70% OF THE NOISE! that's amazing, it is probably why they are so expensive...well i have to leave but this is my advice to you DON'T EVER EVER BUY THESE HEADPHONES IN YOUR LIFE!!! THEY ARE HORRIBLE!!!
hope this helped.

Summary: Good idea imperfectly executed 2004-02-17
Comment: I picked these up as possible replacements for the Panasonic RP-HT850's, which apparently have been dropped from the line. Like the 850's they're true "foldaway" headphones--light, compact, comfortable, convenient to carry and wear. Unlike the 850's they use a two-sided, rather than a single-sided, cord connection, and they require insertion of a battery (which makes them marginally heavier). The sound is efficient, or responsive, and bright if not brilliant. But in side-by-side comparisons with my other headphones, including Panasonic RP-HT710's and Sennheiser PX-100's, the Panasonic 100's are definitely wanting in terms of balance, spaciousness, and fullness. If you don't mind the cumbersome size and 16-foot cord, the Panasonic RP-HT 710's are hard to beat for the price. Otherwise, the Sennheiser PX-100's are the inescapable choice--little overachievers that not only make the ride but hold their own against the more costly and conspicuous competition.

Summary: A reasonable buy for the price 2002-11-11
Comment: UPDATE: the plastic broke while travelling, so they no longer stay on my head. Consider a product like Koss' "The Plug" instead.I bought a pair of these about 18 months ago and use them regularly on airplanes. They are a substantial improvement over the usual cheap headphones provided by the airline, because of the noise reduction, the "around the ear" instead of "on the ear" construction which itself seals against outside noise, and the sound quality. The sound quality is quite acceptable for airplane listening. They don't stand up to good quality headphones that don't have NC and don't fold up, but their convenience makes up for it. They don't sound as good as the Bose headphones that are sometimes handed out on business class, but they are substantially cheaper. Two minor downsides. First, they can get uncomfortable after a few hours of listening. Second, there is a little plastic cover for the battery which recently came off and got lost, and now the battery sometimes falls out and gets lost. Overall they are a substantial improvement over what the airplane gives you. You can actually understand the spoken parts of a movie. They are compact, light, and easy to carry around so they are always in my carryon bag, and I use them a lot. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the newer units in the same or slightly higher price range would be better, as this is an older unit.
