How many calls have you missed because you’ve been listening to music when your iPhone rings? If you’re anything like us, then it’s probably quite a few (even if we only get calls from the bank). With these ZaggBud Noise Cancelling Headphones, you can not only control the volume, but also answer the phone when it rings – problem solved. Using the neat in-line controller, forget about missing important calls just because you were paying too much attention to the guitar solo in ‘Stairway To Heaven’. They’re compatible with the iPhone and iPhone 3G, so when that call does come in, all you have to do is click a button on the control and talk. The built-in noise-cancelling microphone will pick up whatever it is that you have to say (how can I pay off an overdraft if you charge me for it?! and other such platitudes, no doubt), and then click it again to hang up. Of course, it’s essential that the sound quality is excellent too, and it is. The 10mm speakers in the headphones deliver a whopping sound and, thanks to the comfortable ‘bud’ style, there’s very little chance of them popping out if you have to run for the bus. And did we mention that they’re noise-cancelling? Speaking of comfort, the cord (which is surprisingly tangle-resistant) features multiple sliders so you can arrange it to come around the back of your neck rather than flop around in front of you. Even though these are designed to work with iPhones, they’re also great for any other devices that have 3.5mm headphone jacks. So next time you’re rummaging desperately in your pocket to turn your music off because your phone’s ringing, think of the hassle you could save with the ZaggBuds.
