Has anyone tried these on an airplane?
Do these have good enough sound isolation that they will be able to cut out some of the noise from the engine?

Best AnswerI use mine frequently on airplanes and they don't do a great job of canceling airplane noise. If you're listening to music it's not usually a big issue, but can be problematic watching movies.

Can you hear the thud of your footsteps when walking or running
I have some sehnheisser earphones already that when worn you can hear the thud of your own footsteps when you walk or run when they are in your ears. This is very annoying and want to upgrade to a better pair.
Has anyone ever experienced this with this product?- Asked by Mark A from Burwell

AnswerYou cannot here the thud of your footsteps while running like you do with in-ear headphones. This is the exact reason I replaced my beats for the bose.

Has anyone tried these on an airplane?
I was wondering if these headphones were good enough at sound isolation to cut out the sound of the engines at all.

Best AnswerYes, several times - they are perfect. There are still some planes that you will need an airline adapter for. Either way, they perform brilliantly - but remember they are NOT sound cancelling earphones, so you will get some background noise as you'd expect.

Do these now work with the iPhone 4? Last pair did not shut off the bottom microphone, picking up distracting noise.
It was particularly bad when I put the iPhone 4 in my pocket during calls; it picked up all sorts of friction noise that, I'm told, was very loud on the end. Otherwise, I like the Bose earphones very much.
