These are the FM20 headphones by FIO MOTUS, my mom ordered these off Amazon. And I had to get them in my favorite color, purple.

They fit comfortably on my head, and even though I feel like I have a big head, I didn't have extend them much at all for them to fit.

The sound quality is great. These are actually good noise cancelling, which is great because I live by myself in an apartment complex and the walls are thin. And I'm currently watching tv whilst wearing them and I cant hear anything else.

And they charge fast: apparently 10 minutes of charging can give you 12 hours of playtime. We'll see how true that rings, but so far I am enjoying my new headphones.

Awesome, what did you have before? I've generally found the only noise canceling that actually works is usually Bose, though I don't really like their headphones, otherwise. Especially considering the price. But their noise cancelation is top notch. Even eliminates most engine noise on an airplane. But I love my Klipsh headphones for sound, just the noise canceling is not even half as good as Bose. The other nice thing is the battery lifespan, not talking how long it lasts before charge, but the fact that I've charged them so many times and they still hold several hours of charge with noise canceling turned on. That's usually what gets you on the cheaper devices is the bad battery longevity. Wish Bose made some really good drivers and not the crappy rattly bass tuned junk they use so I could have the best of both worlds in one headset.

The brand i had before was called ZIHNIC. And they were okay for 25 bucks. But it eventually stopped charging and eventually died forever.

My new headphones cost a little more, about $45, still cheaper than bose but much better bang for your buck imo.

Thanks. Handy to know.

I'm still on my first pair of noise cancelling headphones. The "cheap"[est] Bose ones (^around that same price). They do a fair job of noise cancelling [~ though not great enough to immunise me from SensoryProcessingDisorder triggers]. But I have nothing else to compare to. Have been considering making a big investment for their more expensive ones that I've seen get great reviews.
