The verdict

The Technics EAH-AZ80 are very solid performers with a rock-solid array of features, though they're quite large earbuds. Despite the bulky design and premium price, they deliver reliable performance, extensive customization options, and impressive connectivity features that make them appealing to Android users and those who need versatility across multiple devices.

✓What we like
✓Simple, straightforward controls that are highly customizable
✓Feature-laden with industry-first triple-point connectivity, LDAC codec support, and dual hybrid ANC
✓Solid battery life of 6 hours 40 minutes on a single charge
✓Effective active noise cancellation that attenuates about 82% of outside noise
✓Excellent multipoint connectivity allowing seamless switching between three devices
✕What could be better
✕Premium price point at $299.99 makes them expensive for earbuds
✕Large, heavy earbuds at 7g per bud that stick out of most ears noticeably
✕Circular nozzles require torquing to get the right fit, which some users may find annoying
