Tech Review – TOZO HT2 Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones

The TOZO HT2 Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones have been on my head the last while and a pair of headphones I have been looking forward to testing out. TOZO is a new brand on my radar now after testing many of their products and they have been consistent in delivering good quality products and audio to date and also a nice smartwatch called the TOZO S3 which we recently tested out and their newest earbuds the TOZO T12 Tonal Dots they also have some open ear headphones called the Open Buds which again an excellent product.

With TOZO I have openly said they need headphones and we finally got them and after spending some time with them the wait was worth it. I am now shifting to headphones more so than earbuds as I constantly have earbuds all week long in my ears and could not wait to test these and they did not disappoint at all.

They are really clean to look at and unlike other brands they do not scream their name, they are plain and I do give out about plain earbuds and being one colour but TOZO is a new brand to many and they get away with it this time round I would like to see more colours later on but not an issue right now.

They are light and comfortable to wear for long sessions which I do quite regularly either listening to music or watching films I test the like for a living and go into my element and I got what I expected here, loud crisp clear sound when watching new movies and excellent audio when listening to my playlist that I use for testing and with their app the experince is enhanced giving you control over your audio.

For me it is volume to the max and forget about everything else that is going on. No lag latency no tinny sound and just a great audio experince for the price overall, the buttons work well albeit they are small but worked well after spending some time with them, all features are present such as volume control skip and reverse tracks call management and voice assistant access.

You also have transparency mode and wind reduction and noise cancellation thrown in for good measure making them more appealing for their price. I am hoping now they make another pair of cans soon but as for these for the price you can’t go wrong. See the video review for more and a look at their app and features.
