This product is better for a non Xperia phone user because of the noise cancellation

I bought these earbuds for use when travelling light. I have owned both Phillips and Sony noise cancelling earbuds in the past and this pair is by far the best. The battery life is sufficient for all but the longest flights. The noise cancelling works well for most background noise, but does allow some speech through (e.g airplane announcements). Not sure if this is by design. These are not a replacement for over ear noise cancelling headphones like my Bose quiet comfort qc25'sin terms of sound quality and noise cancelling, but they don't sit in the same space. The fact they are available in a range of colours other than traditional black or silver is a bonus.
