TOZO HT2 Review: Discover the Truth about the High-Res Audio Headphones

In the competitive noise-cancelling wireless headset market, TOZO HT2 ANC headphones stand out by offering a great combination of high-quality sound and active noise cancellation at a very affordable price. It’s worth noting that this TOZO HT2 review is based on unbiased analysis to ensure readers are getting a genuine review that brand sponsors do not influence.

Despite their primarily plastic construction, the TOZO HT2 headphones boast solid durability and excellent ergonomics, making them affordable noise-cancelling wireless Bluetooth headphones that don’t come without compromising on build or comfort. The design inspired in California with practical Chinese ergonomics suggests a global appeal that appeals to a wide audience.

Design and Build Quality

A closer look at the design and build quality of the TOZO HT2 headphones reveals a good balance between beauty and durability. Its main structure is made of strong plastic, complemented by a metal headband substructure and screws for extra strength. Consequently, these headphones are lightweight yet resilient enough to withstand regular use. 

Comfort is guaranteed with memory foam padding on both the headband and earcups of TOZO HT2. Ear cups are made of ultra-soft protein leather that automatically adjusts according to different head shapes for comfort all day. These headphones feature an adjustable headband design with rotating and collapsible ear cups, making them perfect for listening to music on the go.

The TOZO HT2 headphone comes in a variety of colours including black, blue, pink, white and khaki. Though, a carrying case is not included but since they can be collapsed it’s easy to store them safely or carry them around anywhere you want.

Sound Quality and Performance

During my test of the sound quality and performance of the TOZO HT2 headphones, I found that they have a decent sound quality when it comes to the audio experience. Below are some key things I noticed. 

The TOZO HT2 headphones have a wide frequency range of 16Hz to 45,000Hz supported by dual 40mm dynamic drivers. This is more than the standard 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz on most headphones, and Hi-Res Audio certification when wired enables a better listening experience.

As regards the sound signature and codec support section, In Bluetooth mode, the headphones exhibit a strong V-shaped sound signature with pronounced bass and clear treble which is further supported by SBC and AAC codecs. It does not however support high-end Bluetooth codecs like AptX Lossless or LDAC but still has an impressive audio output, especially with the use of ORIGX acoustic technology. 

Audio quality across all frequencies: 

  • Bass: The bass could be rendered deeper and stronger using the equalizer present in the TOZO mobile app for those who prefer a more robust sound profile.
  • Midrange: A warm rich sound that ensures clear and accurate audio as well as improving overall warmth of sound.
  • Treble: Bright and sharp, allowing you to hear detailed instruments and vocals in this range. 
  • Soundstage: Provides a wide and deep soundstage in closed-back headphones for detailed imaging that contributes to a more immersive listening experience. 

These aspects combine to ensure high resolution and sound quality comparable to very expensive headphones. Speaking about high-resolution sound (also known as Hi-Res Audio), to experience it, you’ll need a good music source or Hi-Res audio file and a good sound card or Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC).

TOZO HT2 headphones are versatile and suitable for various genres such as pop, EDM, R&B, classical, etc. due to their excellent audio capabilities.

Battery Life and Connectivity

If you know and have used several TOZO products, you will agree with me when I say the battery life of their products is always impressive as well as the connectivity. The TOZO HT2 headphones have several key features that make them more appealing in the competitive noise-cancelling Bluetooth wireless headphones market. 

With active noise cancellation (ANC) turned on, the TOZO HT2 headphones have a battery life of around 28 hours at 50% volume, which is slightly less than the claimed 40 hours. However, with ANC disabled, users can enjoy an incredible 60 hours of playback time, making listening sessions last longer. The headphones are equipped with a 500mAh battery that supports fast charging via USB Type-C cable and can be fully charged within 2 hours.

Connectivity Enhancements:

A stable, long-range connection surpassing the regular 10 meters is what the TOZO HT2 offers with Bluetooth 5.3.

The headphones also have Multi-Point connection technology which can also be found in TOZO Open EarBuds that allows them to connect to two devices simultaneously, allowing seamless switching between sources without having to reconnect.

Additional Connectivity Features:

Call quality is improved through ENC noise-cancelling microphones; these earphones come with three such microphones.

For versatility, they support both wired and wireless connections. In addition to this, an aux cable comes with the package for wired listening options so as to cater for different user preferences.

These attributes highlight the ability of the TOZO HT2 headphones in respect of battery life and connectivity making it a strong contender for users who want wireless Bluetooth noise-cancelling headsets that are dependable in performance and adaptable in relation to connectivity requirements.

Active Noise Cancellation and Additional Features

In the realm of noise management, the hybrid ANC algorithm, coupled with three ANC microphones, offers decent noise control, minimizing disruptive background noise across a wide frequency range although you will still get quite a lot of noise coming through, playing music fixes that but not all the way. Furthermore, the headphones’ ENC (Environmental Noise Cancellation) technology enhances call clarity, even in noisy surroundings, by reducing ambient sound.

Active Noise Cancellation Modes

  1. Noise Cancellation: For immersive audio without external interruptions.
  2. Transparency Mode: Amplifies ambient sounds, making it easier to hear announcements or conversations without removing the headphones.
  3. Reduce Wind Noise: Specifically designed to minimize wind interference during outdoor activities.
  4. Leisure Mode: A lighter ANC setting for less noisy environments.
  5. Normal Mode: Standard setting without ANC.
  6. Adaptive Mode: Automatically adjusts the level of noise cancellation based on the surrounding noise level.

TOZO App

The TOZO HT2 headphones come with the TOZO app which allows customers to customise their listening experience. The app offers several customization options, including 16 different EQ presets. Users can also modify the ANC settings based on their current environment or activity from the app. The app also makes it easy to upgrade the headphones’ firmware, so they always stay up-to-date.

Conclusion

This review highlighted the many benefits and features of TOZO HT2 Headphones such as the remarkable combination of high-resolution sound, advanced active noise cancellation, connectivity features, excellent battery life, good comfort and durability at an affordable price point and other functionalities that make them stand out in the competitive market of wireless Bluetooth noise-cancelling headphones.
