It does hero cancel some sounds, but others it doesn’t block at all. It seems like it’s in active listening mode all the time. I had thought for the price that the noise canceling would be complete. TV and people speaking can be heard right though.

These are the best headphones I’ve ever purchased. The only reason I didn’t give 4 stars is because I read that they weren’t sweatproof and I was hoping to workout in them. I’m a music lover and want my music to sound like I’m in the front row at a concert. I can hear every little cymbal, guitar note etc
I have had my bose headphones for almost a month now and the sound quality is phenomenal! The earcups are so comfortable! 10/1000! I have a pair of soundcore space one headphones , but my bose headphones 🎧 I love it! Definitely happy the pair I wanted went on sale in the color I wanted too! my first pair of bose headphones 🎧 and I will get more of this brand in the future !
