My Ears Upgraded. My Wallet Survived. My Coworkers Are Still Annoying Though.
Let me tell you about my complicated relationship with TOZO. It started about 4 years ago. I trusted them with my ears, and they delivered. Those original earbuds lasted FOUR YEARS. That's longer than most of my houseplants, one gym membership, and a Netflix series I keep meaning to finish. So when they finally gave up the ghost (RIP, little guys), I didn't even hesitate. I came crawling back. Sound Quality: Okay, TOZO clearly hit the gym between versions. The bass is beefier, the highs are crisper, and listening to music now feels less like "earbuds from Amazon" and more like "earbuds from a store with mood lighting." Build Quality: This is solid. They could survive a gym bag, a toddler, and light emotional distress. The LED display on the case is a genuinely fun touch; it's like having a tiny disco ball that also tells you your battery percentage. Fancy. Value for Money: For what you're paying, these punch WAY above their weight class. I've seen people at coffee shops or at the gym exercising wearing earbuds that cost 4x this price. Their earbuds are not 4x better. I have surveyed them with my eyes. Noise Cancellation: The ANC on my previous TOZO was genuinely impressive; it turned my open-plan office into a serene monk retreat. The NC9's noise cancellation is... polite. It muffles. It suggests silence. It gently requests that the outside world keep it down. It does NOT issue mandates. My old pair would have blocked out a lawnmower. This one negotiates with it. Not a dealbreaker, but a noted downgrade. Pour one out. Fit: These sit in my ears like they were made for them. IPX8 waterproof means I've worn them in the rain, during sweaty workouts and exercises, and once, accidentally, in a surprise splash from a sink. They didn't care. Legends. Functionality & Connectivity: Bluetooth 5.3 is noticeably snappier than my previous pair. Connects faster, holds stronger, doesn't lose its mind when I walk into another room. The 6-mic ENC call quality means people can actually hear me, which is both great and occasionally unfortunate depending on the call. Battery Life: 60 hours total with the case. SIXTY. I could commute to another country and back and still have juice left. The LED display means I always know exactly how charged the case is, so no more that-terrifying-moment-when-one-earbud-dies-mid-chorus. This is a worthy successor to a beloved product. Better sound, better connectivity, snappier everything; just don't expect the noise cancellation to fully ghost your open-plan office the way the old version did. If you've never owned a TOZO before, you'll be amazed. If you're upgrading like me, prepare to have a very specific, very niche, very noise-cancellation-shaped feeling in your heart.

Great earbuds at an amazing price
My go-to earbuds have been the Powerbeats 3 for many years. I love the fullness of the sound, although the high-mids can lack some clarity. Last year I decided to get full wireless earbuds and thought I would give one of the cheaper alternatives a try. I got the Tozo T6, and ended up liking them quite a bit. Recently I got the Tozo NC9 to see if there is any improvement, and besides, they are so inexpensive! After tweaking these a fair amount, I finally got a sound I really like that is comparable to the Powerbeats 3. Soundwise, these are not much different from the T6, though I think the T6 have a little more low end out-of-the-box, but this can be adjusted with EQ. The NC9s fit in the ear more comfortably and the ear tips do not protrude as far down into the ear canal. The NC9s practically disappear into the ear and don't have the telltale tail hanging out like Apple AirPods. The NC9s do have noise cancelling, but that is not a feature that I care that much about, so I won't comment on it. I normally wear these on my morning walk or jog. I listen to music on my Pixel 6 Pro and use the PowerAmp app, which has an equalizer. For the Powerbeats 3, I keep the low end fairly flat and boost the upper mids. With the NC9, I use a modified version of the Rock EQ setting in the Tozo app, which is bass heavy, and then also boost the bass quite a bit in PowerAmp as well as a slight high end boost and mid cut. They do not sound quite as full in the low end as the Powerbeats 3, though close, but are crisper in the mids and highs. The low end is perhaps a little punchier. It is crucial to use the correct size ear tips, and also to put the ANC on the Noise Cancellation setting to get the fullest sound. Play around with these settings to see what you like. For me the additional EQ in the PowerAmp app is also essential in addition to the Tozo app EQ. I am very pleased with the overall design and sound of these earbuds. I rarely have a connection problem, and the charging case is wonderful. I am blown away considering the price point. I do recommend using EQ to dial in the sound and am glad that Tozo provides an app for this. I plan on using the NC9 as my goto earbuds considering sound, comfort, and convenience. Update: On a long walk I noticed that the Noise Cancellation mode can produce some subtle artifacts in the sound that bothered me for critical listening. I am now playing around with the custom mode for ANC to see if I can get the fuller sound with no noticeable artifacts. Update 2: I have settled on the Custom Pattern for ANC and am quite happy with the sound I am getting. I really enjoy these earbuds. I will attach some pictures of my settings. For reference, I bought a pair of Beats Studio Buds Plus earbuds, thinking they would improve on the sound of the Powerbeats3 I have and be stiff competition for the Tozo NC9. I was quite surprised, though, that I could not get them to sound full in the low end. The Beats don't come with an EQ, but I did use the EQ in the PowerAmp app. I could not get a full sound. Perhaps the Beats sound much better with iPhones, and not so much with Android/Pixel phones. Anyway, I was surprised, disappointed, and returned them. On the other hand, it makes me even more satisfied with the Tozo NC9 -- better features and better sound at a much lower price!

Great earbuds, def recommend.
I bought these because my old headphones got lost. I had the TOZO t12 before these. I like that they show both the earbud state of charge and the case state of charge - but so did my old ones. These show it on a small display on the front but you need to open the case for the display to show. The other ones I had you needed to open the case to see(because the display was inside the case) and remove at least one earbud to see the states of charge. They were great, but these are smaller and so is the case, so they fit better in my pocket. There about the size of an AirPod case, and weight basically nothing. As far as sound they’re honestly about the same, there are marginally better if I had to say. Battery is not bad, I can go all day wearing them and the battery doesn’t run out, but the case can recharge them In about half an hour if you need them to recharge. Personally tho, I almost always only wear one, so they last even longer - I’ve gone about a week or so then had to charge them. They paired right up to my phone super easy, didn’t even need to find the pairing mode. They just connected to my iPhone within seconds with no issues. Volume is very good, can be a bit too loud if you go to max, so I generally keep it around 2/3 at most. I’m continuously losing them or misplacing my earbuds, so I refuse to buy really good expensive ones, just in case I lose them. At this price I can lose them and replace them once a year and still spend less than one set of AirPods or beats or whatever, if I bought one and they last me 3 years. PS: of course, the day after i received these new ones, I found my old ones 🤦♂️ Update: I found today, sign the TOZO app the nc9 earbuds have several modes of active noise cancelling, and tons of EQ settings thru the TOZO app. You can also edit the function of tapping them(only when used as a pair tho). You can set what 1, 2, 3 taps and/or hold do with each earbud, ie pause/play, skip, volume, start/end call etc. And they even have a version of find my earbud. It makes the earbuds beep kinda like an AirTag. But only works if the earbuds are out of the case “in use”, not if they’re “docked” and you lost the case. Also it won’t give tracking, only makes them beep. For like if you drop them or something and can’t physically see them, you can use the sound to help locate them. They are earbuds, so it’s not super loud, but it’s helpful. EDIT: it’s been ~1.5months later. The headphones are still working perfectly and I like how the case is smaller than my old headphones, they sound a little better and have some added features. Overall they’ve been great, Xept one thing. Somehow the case has changed from normal Arabic numbers to display the charge state, to some type of hieroglyphs. I can’t tell how it’s happened, but it looks the display has come loose and gone crooked. The still work perfectly, but just an fyi.

Not AirPod Pros, but amazing for the price
I have AirPod Pros, but they do not work well with Windows computers and VMWare, so I cannot use them for work. So, I have been trying out tons of wireless headsets and earbuds. Honestly, most of them are super expensive and horrible in one way or another. So, at $60 and promising features similar to my AirPod Pros, I was pretty skeptical, but took the plunge. Pairing and Bluetooth Connectivity First off, you can use just one earbud if you want. And pairing both earbuds with one another is seamless, and in some cases better than AirPods. Even though I have had these for 2 days, I have been using them almost non-stop minus sleep. I am always listening to music or on calls for work. I use an IP Phone on my computer, and I have had no issues with the Bluetooth connection dropping. However, Bluetooth range isn't that great. I can talk maybe 15ft away from my computer before I start getting connectivity issues. No only that, but the connection will bounce between earbuds as well, making them mostly unusable. So, my advice to anyone using these is to make sure you don't need to venture far from your connected device. As a note, I did try pairing this with my iPhone and a MacBook and both had the same issue. Sound Quality I am breaking this into 2 categories: Phone calls and Music. For phone or audio calls, the earbuds are pretty clear, but not perfect. I typically need to turn off transparency mode. Thankfully, it's super easy with 2 taps on the left earbud. I do NOT recommend using these for phone calls if you are just using 1 earbud. For music, it's exactly what I expected from $50 earbuds. Music is clear, and surprisingly, a lot better than audio from phone calls, which is confusing. However, if you want good bass and super clear sound, these are not for you. But these are way better than any other in-ear buds I have tried. They actually are almost as good as regular AirPods. They definitely don't compare to the Pros though. I really love how well they can switch between audio from apps, although that is more OS-specific (Windows, iOS and MacOS all had the same result). Although, I did have to unpair these from my other devices, because I would get all sorts of device switching, which was really bad when I was in an important meeting. Battery Life 8 hours of battery life is definitely not accurate. So far I have not gotten more than 6 hours. I was afraid of even getting 2 hours initially because the first 20% seems to drain really quick, then it slows down. Charging is super quick though, which is very convenient. Fit and Comfort and Workouts These earbuds come with a few extra sizes for tips. I have pretty standard ears, so the tips that come out of the box fit perfectly for me. Also, the earbuds fit really well. I tried doing a HIIT workout and a yoga session and they stayed in my ears just fine, although once they start getting sweaty, they definitely start losing their snug fit and I did have readjust a couple times towards the end of my workout. Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and Transparency Mode First off, Active Noise Cancellation, or ANC. I am floored at how good the ANC is at this price point. They are better than all of the top-of-the-line headsets I tried, including Logitech, Jabra, and Plantronics. Yes, it still picks up background noise and if you have kids yelling, a loud TV, or someone else is talking nearby, it will definitely pick up this noise to a certain extent, but it's not super loud either for the listener on the other end. Transparency mode at this price point usually is garbage for other headsets and bugs I have tried. Even though this is nowhere near as good as AirPod Pros, it's pretty amazing. To be clear, it does a good job at tuning out noises around you, NOT in front of you. For example, I could not hear one of my cats meowing loudly or my wife while she was on a work call. However, I could lightly hear my computer fan when it kicked on, as well as my keyboard clicks (keyboard has loud buttons). If I turned to look at my meowing cat, I could then lightly hear him meowing. But this is typically how most non-transparency mode works. In regards to Transparency mode being on, it's really good. Something you need to keep in mind though it any "bone" noises will be heard no matter what. So, if you are chewing something, it's going to sound super loud because you are using in-ear earbuds and the bone noise is amplified. So, ignore that, since it doesn't apply. What's important is that I can easily have a conversations with someone without needing to remove the earbuds, which is key for transparency mode. Again, not as good as my AirPod Pros, but it works and at this price point, there really isn't any decent competition, or at least from my testing. Overall To wrap it up, I love these earbuds and that they work perfectly with Windows and VMWare, which my AirPod Pros could not do. I will definitely be using these going forward for work.

Performance is much higher than the pricepoint
Stop scrolling! If you're looking for new earbuds and are on the fence about these, put them in your cart and select buy now! I bought these to replace my TOZO mini A1a that I misplaced and ultimately found after these arrived. I've had several different pairs of bluetooth and corded earbuds and I found that the A1s were superb- and just as good, if not better than the others I've used, and for $12! what a steal! I had the A1s for 3 years. They were small and fit well in my ears, and I could run and work out, without feeling like they were going to fall out. My only complaint I had with them was the battery life- I'd get 10-12 hours out of them and have to recharge them. They didn't have a charging case, so that meant plugging them into a type c cord to charge and I'd forget to grab them when I went to the gym or left for work. I always keep a spare corded set in my bag and that comes with its own set of problems. I knew I wanted my next set to have a charging case, but I couldn't bring myself to buy new ones when the current ones work great. Yep I am a cheap bas*ard. So fast forward and I am working in the yard with my eaebuds in and I took them out and set them on a table, then it started to rain and we picked up everything and POOF- they went to wherever socks go in the dryer. So I decided to buy a new set and started to research earbuds and saw the NC9s. I read the reviews and they were okay, but for $26, I could take a gamble. I got them and man they are fantastic! The good: -They fit really well into the ear and are only slightly larger than the A1s. -I charged them and so far have 4 6-8 hour days without having to recharge the charging case. The earbuds themselves recharge quickly. -There is a digital readout on the case to show you the battery charge and the earbud charge. -They paired easily with my Galaxy S24. -The noise canceling and ambient sound function is great. With a tap of the left ear, you can switch between the two. I have tinnitus and a little hearing loss and I think I hear better when I use them in ambient mode. They have an app with the ability to adjust the EQ to a level you like. Bad: I haven't really seen bad overall but the earbuds themselves are slightly larger and heavier than the A1s and it takes some getting used to. -The case is about 33% larger than the A1 case and I could see it being lost easily. The ugly: I haven't seen anything yet. Some reviews said the battery life doesn't last more than a year. Well for the price, you can buy one set a year for three years in what you'd spend on a name brand pair. Overall: I highly recommend them.

Undeniable value for the price and quality you get!
I purchased these earbuds to replace my old Apple AirPods Pro 2’s and Sony WF-1000XM3’s that I used for the past several years. I’ve had these TOZO earbuds for about a month now and so far they’ve well exceeded my expectations. Pros: The audio quality and noise cancelling abilities are far superior to both of my previous earbuds, which are admittedly a few years older and it seems ANC technology is just getting cheaper and better. The earbuds fit perfectly for my ears and are much smaller which makes them feel more comfortable and discrete than my previous earbuds. The companion mobile app offers a lot of control and even has AI translation features where you can speak to someone in different languages while each person wears an earbud and it will translate in the other person’s selected language to each other. Idk if that’s standard these days but it was a fun discovery that there are more interesting capabilities in the app. Cons: The build quality is noticeably inferior to my other earbuds. This was expected but the charging case in particular feels like cheap plastic compared to the metallic or more durable plastic construction on my old Sony’s and AirPod’s. I have dropped it once on a hardwood floor and it survived fine, but it feels less durable than other earbud cases which are already notorious for breaking easily. Bluetooth connectivity between multiple devices. I mainly use the earbuds with my iPhone and iPad and go back and forth between them. The AirPods were always seamless with this and even the Sony’s just had you go into the Bluetooth settings on the device you wanted to pair and select them. With these TOZO’s, there is an extra step if I still have both devices nearby. I have to manually disconnect the old device from Bluetooth first before I can pair the other one. Hopefully this is something that can be fixed later because it is a little annoying to have an extra step in these situations. Overall, even with the cons, these are still 5-star worthy for me at this price point which is literally a fraction of the cost from big brand alternatives. I would happily recommend these to anyone looking for inexpensive earbud options, especially at the sale prices. Even if I just get a year out of these earbuds, I think that’s well worth it to save money and just look at replacing with a similar pair down the road vs paying 5-10x more for earbuds that might last just a few years more if you’re lucky.

not the best from TOZO, nor, the worst either. Great sound quality, but a few cons hold these back
This update is after I did get the updated 2024 version of the NC9s I really hate to act like I hate these original NC9s ... they are just not for me and I just dropped them off for a return. They are (the buds themselves not the eartip part) too big but the sound is good/"pretty darn good" ... the build quality is great ... I THINK they have app support but i couldn't get them to work (if they dont have app support then it is my mistake here). Overall they are ok/decent earbuds ... the ANC is not that bad though because of the bigger bud size i wasn't getting the best seal. WITHOUT going into a review of the 2024 Upgraded NC9... I think they are better. App support works great (again maybe these never did have app support ... like the original TOZO T6s), the ANC not only woks better but trying different modes i tried the "leisure mode" and that is the strongest ANC i have heard in any budget earbud I have ... I THINK on that setting its even better than what I REMEMBER of the TOZO NC2s which I loved the ANC on. Also TOZO even on their non-ANC buds .. like the T6s (whichever model/version) provide REALLY GOOD passive NC in my view.. The one thing I am not sure (minus the EQ in the TOZO app) I cant say is better in the 2024 model is the sound ... HOWEVER that is not saying these original NC9s are better ... just both sound great out of the box and I did not notice the overall sound quality to be better .. .they are great on both versions of the NC9s oh yeah .. I forgot .. the new ones are smaller and fit better .. more along the line of any other TOZO earbud I have. TOZO really does listen to feedback it seems, and I love that about TOZO. -------- Original Review: I have to admit before starting this review that It is not going to be as comprehensive as others, but I wanted to share my view on the original (that I know of) TOZO NC9’s. I have already started a return for these, and while I am unsure if its a good idea .. I did (for the same exact price counting the coupon box) order the UPGRADED NC9s. I am a TOZO fan though I will not claim any of their products are “perfect”. I have T6s (more than one pair), A3s, NC2s (again more than one), the TOZO Tonal Fits, as well as one of their PE1 speakers. I’d say TOZO is one of my go-to brands, but I did notice a few things with my limited time with these NC9s already. The Fit. While I am not going to go overboard here, these are a bit bigger than expected (I do hear the upgraded ones are a tad smaller) … like my Lavabeans which are no longer listed on Amazon seem big but they are big in the sense of sticking out of my ears, but not “too large’ say in diameter of the actual buds. The diameter of these NC9s maybe the biggest I ever tried and they are just not as comfortable as other buds. I have tried basically the T6 “classics” (model from years ago) and the new style and EITHER of those feel uncomfortable. In a way these don’t either but they are just too big. The Sound Ignoring other issues I have had the sound out of the box with no EQ tweaks (which I can not do … foreshadowing) … is pretty damn good. I wish I could tweak it and if I did I’d just maybe pump up the mid-highs and highs a pinch … maybe leaving the bass alone OR raising that a pinch too, but really good balance and yes I cant get the fit (see above why) just right but overall I like the tuning. I admit most buds that I buy (that I do my homework on before buying) sound good but some just sound off .. like different frequencies are too low, and others are too high… making what I am listening to .. without tweaks, sound way off. The Sound even without tweaks is not the issue. App: Here is a big one … This is suppose to have EQ support which to me (like on the product page) means TOZO App support but despite trying with two different phones .. the NC9s pair fine and fast to both phones but even with the most updated TOZO app, the app on either phone cant detect the buds … I know some (say the first gen of A3s I have do not have app support) versions of different models have support and others don’t but I cant get these to work. ANC One reason I am even considering canceling my order for the UPGRADED 2024 model of NC9s is the ANC. Listen … I have my expectations low … I mean these are not BOSE or Sony level ANC. But these reminded me of the NC7s I returned (due to tech reasons) … I just wasn’t impressed. Even after the NC7s, I went back to test the ANC in the TOZO NC2s and with them (The NC2s) I was ‘oh yeah … much better” .. I CANT remember if the NC2s have an anbient/transparency mode but the ANC is better. Also no matter (Classic or new Ergonomic edition) which edition it is … with the default eartips feeling great … I feel the TOZO T6s block out more noise even when nothing is playing, then the experience I had with the NC7s or NC9s … I am hoping the upgraded NC9’s that have different ANC levels in the app may do better. Update: I actually just remembered that the NC2s DO have transparency mode and I remember feeling when out for a walk that the NC7’s Trans. Mode DID feel more refined .. Like it felt more natural and I wasn’t hearing things further away sounding “really close”…credit to the NC7s for that. I know I am returning these original NC9s so I will not be trying them anymore (less wear and tear on them IMHO) otherwise I would try them on a walk and comment on the transparency mode. -------------- Summary Really I cant say “Avoid these” … if you know about the size being big and the (from my experience) app support that I have NOT had issues with, concerning ANY other TOZO products with advertised app support …. and are willing to try them … these aren’t bad but they are not my favorite TOZOs. I think part of my disappointment is that YES I ADMIT I got these by mistake, meaning to get the new upgraded NC9s for the same price … I just don’t see a huge improvement in these versus some of the cheaper TOZO options like the T6s. Out of (minus my battery tech issues that caused me to send the NC7s back) … IN MY EXPERIENCE with the original NC2s, NC7s and NC9s .. the NC2s are 100% my favorite so far. The sound on the NC2s WERE better in my view then the NC7s but …. I think these buds minus other issues, SOUND WISE are on part with the NC2s. I just think bang for buck, TOZO itself (ignoring other great brands like Earfun and Tribit for instance) has better offerings. I will be posting my 2024 TOZO NC9 reviews and when I have them .. .we will see if TOZO has done what they have before and listened to feedback and improved the NC9s … Credit to TOZO for really doing that in the past.

Really good value with active noise cancellation
I owned a previous version of the NC9's from 2022 that were a bit different than these, and as often happens with these little earbuds in a small charging case, I recently lost them somewhere, probably in my last hotel room. Beware of spending too much on earbuds - you absolutely will go through multiple sets of them. I was really happy with those earbuds for the price I paid at the time, which was a little over $10. So I figured rather than trying to wade through all the nonsensical marketing-speak on Amazon or the ridiculously overpriced offerings from Apple and other major brands, I'd just get the latest version of the same thing I had. And so far, these are pretty great for the price and a definite upgrade over the 2022 version. Now, I will say that while I'm not an audiophile, I could probably call myself an "audio enthusiast" and I don't think any earbuds from anybody sound all that great either on their own or when compared with decent full size headphones. That's one reason why I refuse to pay anything close to the $200 that's the standard price for major brand earbuds. These are tiny drivers using a low-powered DAC chip and DSP, getting a lossily compressed audio signal over a low-bandwidth wireless codec. It's just the nature of the beast. No earbuds anywhere are worth more than about 50 bucks, and that's with the profit baked in. Anything above that is just a name brand tax. (And these days, maybe a tariff.) But these sound perfectly fine for what they are and basically as good as any other wireless earbuds I've ever used. I did notice some sibilance with the default EQ - like most (all?) modern wireless earbuds, these accentuate bass and treble. But a quick adjustment to the high frequencies in the phone app (something that my older NC9's didn't support) seems to have cured that. There is of course still a bit of extra bass, but I'll leave that alone for now as I don't mind it. I can always adjust it later if I feel differently down the road. One minor quibble with the sound is that possibly because of that extra bass and treble, these don't get very loud. At maximum volume, they're about where I normally feel comfortable in regular listening, but they start to break up a bit before that. My guess is that Tozo has reduced the maximum output to control distortion, which isn't unique to them, but again, don't expect a high-end over the ear headphone experience here for 30 bucks. You just can't listen very loud with a lot of bass through tiny drivers like these without distortion. I don't think most people wearing earbuds listen as loud as I normally like to anyway. If this so far sounds like faint praise in a 5 star review, again, look at the price. You are getting a good value in sound quality, especially when you compare these to much more expensive earbuds that don't sound any better. If Apple were selling these and charging Airpod Pro prices, you'd be looking at a 2 star review. But these are priced fairly given their performance and the limitations of the category. Tozo also sells earbuds without the active noise cancellation but I bought these specifically for that, because it worked well on my previous NC9's and it seems to work at least as well and probably better on these. Keep in mind that noise cancellation in general was specifically developed to counter engine noise on airplanes. And that's still what the technology is best at. The way it works is by pushing out a specific frequency to act counter to the frequency of whatever continuous noise is present. It's not going to be very effective at silencing things like conversations or crying babies that are made up of variable, higher frequency sounds (because countering those would also affect the music you're listening to, not to mention using a lot more processing power, which also uses a lot more battery). That, again, is the nature of the beast. It applies to every set of earbuds that have ANC. But in terms of continuous background noise, such as from a jet engine or a loud fan, these work as well as anything else I've used. And I've used a lot of headphones and earbuds (as well as real aviation headsets) with active noise cancellation. The ANC also does not really alter the sound of the music you're listening to, which my older NC9's kinda did with the ANC on, and it's a pretty common issue with older devices that use ANC. Seems like it's more refined now and I don't really notice much difference, if any, in sound quality with ANC on or off. There was a time only a few years ago when you'd need to spend a few hundred bucks to get ANC at all, and that would have been in a set of wired full size headphones. Now we're talking about how well it works in a $30 set of wireless earbuds. It's kind of amazing if you think about it. I think real ANC alone is basically worth the price of admission here. There are a lot of earbuds in this price range that advertise "ENC" but that is not the same thing - that's for reducing noise on your voice when talking on phone calls. ANC is for listening to music. It's rare at this price, even now. For it to work this well is a huge bonus. Battery life is a definite step up from my older NC9's, although to be fair those were probably also just wearing out by the time I lost them. I intentionally tried to run these down while writing this review and after about 5 hours of constant listening, they were still going strong and when I put them in the charging case, it read 83%. Of course that's the total charge including the case battery, not the buds themselves. I have no idea how accurate that is but if it is correct, then that's probably more battery life than I would ever really need. (You can never have too much, but I can't think of a situation when I'd run out of battery life before being able to recharge.) I read another review where someone said the case on these did not close securely; that is not true. I'd think he must have been using a different version (the reviews here seem to cover all previous versions as well), but I had older ones and that case closed securely too. It's magnetic. The earbuds kind of pull themselves into their little cubbies if you've oriented them the right way, and then the case cover snaps closed with its own magnet. If the case is not closing properly, you're not putting the buds in the right way. They only go one way. You'll get it after a couple tries. Just take note of how they're oriented when you first open the case. Overall I can pretty confidently recommend these. Given that modern phones and many other devices no longer even have headphone jacks, you really need a set of wireless earbuds. Just get these; they're as good as more expensive earbuds and the price is fair. You can't say that about most name brand earbuds.

Amazing sound so far
Got the red one! Really love the color. Owned a tozo t6 from 2021, still working but used as a backup earbuds now. Sound is great, noticeably better than t6. Felt a little flat for me but overall enjoyable. I like that how details in a soundtrack is clear and the bass is amazing!

Absolut genial - TOZO NC9
Diese Earbuds TOZO NC9 habe ich zum Testen erhalten, meine Bewertung bleibt absolut neutral und ehrlich da sie allen weiteren Kunden bei ihrer Kaufentscheidung behilflich sein soll ohne etwas beschönigen zu wollen! Ich verwende bereits das Modell TOZO T6 mit dem ich bislang noch keine Probleme hatte, es sind Earbuds die einfach voll und ganz meinen Erwartungen entsprechen, lange Laufzeiten (AKKU) und die perfekte Klangqualität bei Musik und gelegentlichen Telefonaten. Ich bin in der IT tätig und verwende täglich rund 8 Stunden Headsets der Marke Jabra (kabelgebunden als auch über Bluetooth) die sich in einer ganz anderen Preisklasse befinden als die hier nun zur Bewertung vorliegenden Earbuds! Die TOZO NC9 entsprechen voll und ganz den Angaben, sie sind meiner Meinung nach sogar noch einen Tacken besser was den Klang anbelangt, aber hier ist es ja bekanntlich eine reine Geschmackssache da jeder ein eigenes Hörempfinden hat. Der eine mag mehr Höhen und der andere steht mehr auf Bass, hier finde ich die Abstimmung sehr gut, alles gelangt sehr klar und ausgewogen an meine Ohren und die Passform ist aus meiner Sicht vielleicht sogar noch etwas besser als beim anderen Model (T6)! Sie schmiegen sich definitiv an der Ohrmuschel an und vergeben einen absolut sicheren Sitz wenn man beim Sport schnelle Bewegungen mit dem Kopf macht, zu keinem Zeitpunkt hatte ich das Gefühl dass sie herausfallen würden! Positiv: Absolut genial verarbeitet Super einfach zu koppeln Der Sound ist perfekt mit reichlich Bass Sehr guter Sitz im Ohr dank 6 verschiedener Gummiaufsätze für unterschiedliche Ohrgrößen Ladebuchse mit USB-C Schnittstelle (mehrere Kabel entfallen somit) Negativ: Ich kann nichts feststellen, im Homeoffice setze ich sie sogar gelegentlich als Ersatz für meine Jabra Headsets ein um nicht ständig mit den Kopfhörern arbeiten zu müssen! Niemand bemerkt dass ich diese kleinen und sehr komfortablen Dinger im Ohr habe! Beim Jabra stört mich gelegentlich das bis zum Mund verlaufende Mikrofon, nimmt man mal einen Schluck Kaffee aus der Tasse besteht immer die Gefahr das Mikrofon als Strohhalm zu verwenden :-) Touch-Funktion Links halten = Volume minus Rechts halten = Volume plus 1x links oder rechts tippen = Play oder Pause 2 x links tippen = Musiktitel zurück 2 x rechts tippen = Musiktitel vorwärts (endlich mal so wie es sein soll und nicht umgekehrt) Telefonfunktion / Freisprechen mit glasklarer Übertragungsqualität!!! Telefongespräch annehmen = 1 x antippen (links oder rechts) Telefongespräch ablehnen oder ein Gespräch beenden = 2 Sekunden gedrückt halten (links oder rechts) Google Funktion (SIRI) Bei entsperrtem Bildschirm (Android) einfach „OK Google“ gefolgt vom Befehl aussprechen, die Mikrofone der Earbuds sind scheinbar ständig „aktiviert“! Die Ladebox ist genial die Form ist gegenüber der T6 mehr oval gehalten und passt weiterhin problemlos in eine Hemdtasche, der Ladezustand wird nun über 4 weiße LEDs angezeigt die nicht zu übersehen sind! Die Bluetooth-Reichweite reicht auf jeden Fall mindestens 10 m ohne Hindernisse, der Datenaustausch zwischen Smartphone / Notebook und den Earbuds ist dabei absolut störungsfrei! Fazit: Die Marke TOZO baut sehr gute Earbuds, hier stimmt das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis absolut!!! Warum sollte man sich für weitaus teurere Geräte entscheiden wenn es besser und zugleich günstiger geht? Jeder trifft seine Entscheidung selbst und am Ende sogar an welcher Stelle er sein Geld zum Fenster hinauswirft nur damit er vielleicht einen Produktnamen wählt dessen Bekanntheitsgrad aktuell noch ein wenig größer ist als der hier aufgeführte! An dieser Stelle bleibt nur eins zu sagen: Qualität hat bekanntlich seinen Preis, genau darauf setzen namhafte Hersteller auch, im Glauben ihr Produkt sei unschlagbar! Ganz im Gegenteil, hier bekommt man mehr als man erwartet zu einem absolut günstigen Preis der es ermöglicht gleich eine mehrköpfige Familie mit Earbuds auszustatten für die man sonst ein Vermögen hinblättern müsste! Von mir eine ganz klare Kaufempfehlung für die TOZO NC9

Absolute Empfehlung! ANC und Passform und Sound TOP!
Direkt getestet, direkt begeistert! Das ist mein 2. Paar In Ear Kopfhörer von TOZO. Ich habe welche mit ANC gesucht und hiermit die richtigen für mich gefunden. Ich hatte vorher eine andere Marke getestet, aber die verursachten Schmerzen in den Ohren und ich finde es nervig wenn ein „Stiel“ an den In Ears ist. Das ist hiermit auch gelöst. Diese hier schmerzen auch absolut gar nicht! Toll! Sie sitzen super.😊 und es sind genug Aufsätze dabei um den Sitz individuell anzupassen! Das ANC ist top! Endlich Ruhe im Großraum Büro. Gerade als neurodivergente Person sind diese Kopfhörer Gold wert. Sound ist, wie von meinen alten TOZO Kopfhörern bereits bekannt, auch wieder 1A! Auch die App finde ich super! Auch das Case ist ein Upgrade für mich, mit der Ladeanzeige vorne, Mega!! Ich bin rundum zufrieden. Die Preis Leistung ist unschlagbar!🥰

Buena relación calidad/precio, con buen sonido.
La relación calidad precio es muy buena. El sonido es claro, con una ligera coloración en grabes, pero agradable. El sistema de cancelación de ruido es eficaz, teniendo en cuenta que estos sistemas reducen el ruido un porcentaje bastante alto sobre el total. También dispone de un modo transparente que permite una ventana de ruido entre las frecuencias medias en las que están situadas las de la voz humana. Este sistema cumple su cometido perfectamente. La duración de la batería, escuchando música (no lo he empleado para hablar a través del teléfono) es de varios días, usándolo unas 4 horas al día. La latencia es baja, inapreciable al escuchar música desde cualquier reproductor. No los he probado para monitorear cuando toco el piano. Creo que es un buen producto para el precio que tiene.
