Yes. I use NC9s by Tozo and they are fucking awesome. They have a 75$ pair but I use the Hybirds that are like $45 and they are just great. I bought a 2nd pair to use with my phone and my other pair I use when I game on my PC. They have great sound, ANC and battery life.
Thats fair. I really like the NC9s, they punch way above their price bracket.
NC9s by Tozo. By far the best pair I ever owned, awesome battery life, almost half the price.
I felt that way about my Raycons and than I have NC9s by Tozo. They are awesome. I'd suggest you try them out.
Just buy some Tozo NC9s and call it a day. Cheap and they punch way above their weight. They are awesome.
NC9 Hybird. They are awesome.
Amazon. I use NC9 Hybirds they are like $45. The next ones up are roughly $75.
I jumped on that deal for the x20's too. I grabbed the soundcore space a40's and the tozo nc9's, both of which give me ear fatigue after a few hrs so I figured i should try a different form factor and grabbed the x20's. Waiting for em now. How you liking the x20's so far?
Got them from Amazon on sale for like ~$27. Was surprised how good they for the price.
I switched from the t10s to the nc9's. Little more expensive, much more secure in my ears. Good sound, active noise canceling is... okay. Transparent mode is good enough to hold a conversation without removing them. Awesome battery life. Easily 10 hours on a charge.
Can confirm the Tozo NC9 Noise cancelling. I wear these while operating a ride on mower and they work. Music quality is great and loud. Talking on calls great. Battery does 8 hr shift; thats the longest I've gone. If there's better for the price I'd love to know.
The TOZO nc 9 is traaash! My friend grandma gave them to me. I through them in the trash!!
I just checked the prices on those and trust me, I’ve been buying Bluetooth since the single QCY mini 2 that had micro usb on the buds. Fun fact: I remember wanting wireless earbuds so bad in 2014, I got 2 of’em, paired each of them individually to my 2014 MacBook Air and BOOMM! I basically had what Apple did years later with the AirPods. After those I got the QCY T1, T2, T3…until the AirPods got released. Then I switched to apple! And if there’s 1 thing I learn, it is, nothing under $70 is worth it unless it’s temporary. Like a few month ago I lost the right side of my AirPods Pro and since I wasn’t interested one their 2ndneed time to thoroughly research replacements, I got the TOZO anc earbuds for $30 in the meantime. However they were so bad, I quickly got the Nothing ear 2024 for over $100 and I dont miss my AirPods Pro no mo’!
