I am deciding whether to buy the ath m50s le or the noontec zoro, leaning a bit towards the ath m50s le. I listen mostly to rap, pop, and alternative music through an iphone 5 without an amp. I want comfortable headphones tha have good sq and sound stage, a bit more bass than usual but not too much, over ear, and relatively portable. The headphones should not need an amp to sound good and it should have good noise isolation and little leakage. Which headphones should I buy and why? Thanks in advance for the help!

To my ears the ATH-M50 sounds more full and neutral.  The Noontech has a very large dip down in the treble response which is quite noticeable.  The cord on the Noontech is a tad short and I am suspicious of the long term durability vs the ATH-M50.  I have had my M50 for many years and it is still going strong and looks new.
