TOZO NC9SoundGuys Headphone Preference Curve

Measured frequency response (dB relative) against the SoundGuys Headphone Preference Curve. When the measurement goes above the dashed line, that frequency is louder than our preference curve, and when it goes below: it's quieter. Use the curve for comparison purposes only, as your taste may vary.

The verdict

If you can get onboard with the idiosyncrasies the TOZO NC2 sports, its ANC is quite impressive. The connection and touch controls are effortless, and the battery life is good. Downsides include the exaggerated bass and that the charging case doesn't seem as long lasting as the IPX6 rated earbuds. Still, for the bargain price tag it's difficult to think of a better ANC capable set of earbuds.

✓Liked: IPX6 rating, Fast pairing, Good ANC, Battery life

✕Could be better: Some features don't work as advertised, Case doesn't seem long lasting, Too much bass, Microphone noise rejection
