Gadget Review: Active Noise Cancellation headphones 

One of London Mums magazine reviewers, dad Stevie, has reviewed the latest and most innovative headphones, the House of Marley Positive Vibration XL ANC Over-Ear Headphones

Here’s what he thinks of them:

“What great headphones, immediately I opened the packaging I could feel they were robust yet lightweight.

The Positive Vibration XL ANC from the House of Marley are very comfortable “over the ears” fitting, they fold up to save space and have an active noise cancelling feature, in fact you cannot hear anything around you even without music playing through them. I jumped when somebody “crept” up on me and I couldn’t even hear them saying my name. The ear cushions are protected by very comfortable memory foam and are totally painless. When my music ran out I just carried on wearing them I forgot I had them on, they were that smoothly fitting.

Their Bluetooth connects easily to my phone’s music and even have a fast forward and rewind on them. I can even accept or reject phone calls seamlessly.

The battery life is over 30 hours and a quick charge through a USB outlet of 15 minutes gives 2 hours of playtime. The controls are really easy to operate without having to take the headphones off.

They come with a 2 year warranty and are available in black or copper. Finally it comes with an auxiliary cable with microphone and remote button, if a cable is easier for you.”

The Positive Vibration XL ANC retail price is £149.99. They are available thehouseofmarley.co.ukAmazonHMV.
