What are the key differences between noise-canceling and noise-isolating headphones, and in what situations is each type of headphone most effective?

Which head phones do you prefer to use? Have you recently purchased a new noise-cancelling head phone or noise-isolating head phone?>

noise cancelling is good when you’re on a train or bus and I’ve never tried the isolating ones as of yet so I cannot say.

I don't know, I haven't used them, I have only used normal headphones. However, I would like to buy noise cancelling or maybe noise isolating.
