overview

THE GOOD
Clearly modeled after Bose's popular QuietComfort 2 noise-canceling headphones, Jabra's much more affordable C820s headphones are comfortable to wear, offer decent sound, and have effective noise-canceling circuitry, and they fold up for compact storage in their included carrying case--just like the Bose headphones.

THE BAD
They don't sound or feel quite as good as the QuietComfort 2.

THE BOTTOM LINE
For about a third of the price, Jabra's C820s noise-canceling headphones deliver much of what the Bose QuietComfort 2 headphones offer.
