Im not real sure ANC is all that useful on buds anyway. They are exactly as pictured. The product is supposed to be 6 inches from the base to the edge of the hook. The little box robbed me of valuable counter real estate. Cómodos sin ya no tener que usar cintas. They have been great for phone calls and listening to music. The size is about right, but I recommend going one size larger if your size is near the borderline. My favourite are the Sony ones by a mile, but it wouldnt be fair to compare those with these Tozo ones due to type and price. My last weightlifting strap would cut off circulation at my wrist. Good job Dearfoam!
