Anyone seeing any BF offers for these in the UK?
10% off at Selfridges is the best I am seeing. As usual, all the advertised BF offers are on old tat, nothing you might actually want...

Just picked these up over the weekend. They will be put to a lot of use on my upcoming trip to Thailand.
Had zero issues in connecting with my iPhone and my laptop. Tested out the phone capability and again, no problems with the microphone.

Thinking of picking up a pair soon for an xmas present. The best deal I could find is 2x miles through the shopping portals. I thought I remembered seeing a flat rate bonus (2000 miles?) in years past. Does there happen to be a special offer I'm not seeing?

Bit the bullet and got a QC35, retail. Report after two 8 hr flights. My concern of size (they replaced QC20's) was solved with creative repacking of my backpack.
Second; rechargeable battery--well after each 8 hr flight, the green light was still on (do not know what that means). I am on very few long hauls that do not have USB ports if needed.
Comfort, much better then my QC15's and for sure the QC20's. Sound quality, I am no where near an audiophile so it was fine for me. Great not to have that wire in the way when getting in and out of the seat.
Overall I am very happy

Finally got to try a pair of these on a recent flight. The noise cancelling is improved over QC15s, but not noticeable enough to warrant upgrading. Wireless was great, as I do move around in my seat a bit. Finally, having controls is quite handy for skipping songs. That being said, the controls seem to not work when using the audio cable, even if the battery is still charged.

Sony has a new piece that online reviews seems to bring them equal if not better in NC but more important SQ is better than Bose.
Friend got some and will provide a review to me.

I use those Sonys almost daily now and love them. Recently did a comparison between those and the newish Sennheisers that are also intended to compete with the QC35s.
