They came in packaging that obviously want from Plantronics (these are expensive headphones, so you know the kind of packaging to expect). They seal your ear canal so I wouldnt really comment on noise cancellation, but they block external sounds. I purchased 2 chargers and I love the style and small footprint. The plastic almost broke trying to get it into shape to fit. Someone is going to get seriously hurt. He really loved it! There are a bunch of HARD spikes that stab your feet. I have no problem with wireless technology, but Bluetooth in 2020 still provides inferior sound quality when compared to a wired connection. If the video you?re watching is dark then rather than seeing the beautiful perfect black scenes you can achieve with an OLED screen, you see the camera. It?s a headset that helps you emerge into the VR world and it does just that.
