I have a pair of these and they're incredible, especially for flights. Saw that Amazon.es were offering a decent saving from .co.uk so thought I'd share in case anyone was looking for a pair.
The QC35 launch should help the price to drop a bit.

Very tempting, guess the new QC35's will be driving down the price of the 25's.

it's getting towards the John Lewis price match deal I got them at a couple of months ago .. the best at noise cancellation and very good acoustics for noise cancelled so... my biggest gripe is that the cable they supply only does EITHER android or IOS and they expect you to buy another at 25 quid .. it's doubly annoying as you can buy on eBay a dual IOS/Android cable for less than a tenner that's perfect .. incidentally the QC25 cables are interchangeable with several AKG models :-)
the QC35 obviously gets over this annoyance :-)

Didn't realise this! - Never thought of checking. Thanks for mentioning :-)
As for QC25, I also got these on the JL price match deal on here a few months back.
Yes, the sound quality isn't amazing and there are better cans out there if sound quality is of utmost importance to you.
However, the noise cancellation is fantastic. I bought them to make my commute a little nicer on the ears, blocking out the horrid noise of trains, tubes and conversations I don't want to hear. They do this incredibly well. I imagine for regular flyers they are a god send.

Love my Bose headphones, not the cheapest and not the best sound for the price but awesome noise cancelling and perfect for plane trips etc...

QC35 should help ease the prices of these.

Wasn't aware the QC35s were out soon. Just had a look and it seems they're wireless which means they tick all the boxes. Will have to see how they review.
Heat for this deal though.

35s are shipping on 15 June. Reviews seem positive, slight improvement in audio quality over the 25s although What HiFi state they are not as forgiven when listening to poor quality source material.
