These earphones promise to cut you off from the real world, let us see if they really do.
Music is something that all of us want to listen to undisturbed, and that is the way it is enjoyed best. Unfortunately, we are surrounded by so much ambient sounds (especially in a city like Mumbai), that such solitude is really hard to find. Sony has taken it upon itself to take care of this issue by releasing its noise-cancelling pair of earphones - MDR-NC22. These aren't the cans as you may have wrongly guessed (and we don't blame you for that), these are in-ear type of earphones, the first of such a pair with noise-cancelling feature; we have got our hands on. Let us see if they really walk the walk as they talk the talk.
The Sony MDR-NC22 comes in an attractive see-through packaging
What's in the box?
A lot of things are bundled along
Sony MDR-NC22
Two extra pair of silicone rubber earplugs
Airplane adapter
Black felt carry pouch
Quick start guide
Some time ago I read in an article in an Indian business magazine, where SONY said that it charges a premium on its products because its SONY. I was a big SONY fan till then. I do not purchase any SONY products after that. I sold my SONY TV and purchased a Samsug 42" LCD at much less than the equivalent SONY product. I'm writing this actually in support of the post of 'Rav from Mumbai'. My stand today is that there are a number of excellent products available at much less than SONY prices. Let SONY sell to the rich and famous, who often have more money than brains.

Agree with your view, Sony or for that matter Nokia are companies which charge atleast 25-30% for their brand. Who ends up paying this? we the consumers. Just because its a sony or its priced prohibitively does not always mean its better.
Compare features, technology version, specifications, brand, post sales support and then make a sensible value for money decision!!
"original sony products dont sell on the streets.so please do not give wrong advice."what i mean is that they only sell at the mrp not one rupee more not one rupee less at least in mumbai.
