Avantree's headphones (Aria series) isn't bad either, just saying :)
👍👍
Expensive and bad cheap and great
That’s how they are
Have you updated? & Have you started the give aways?
1.25 speed, lads
guys please stop. it's already 2021 and there's better headphones at the same price or less
thanks
Da real MVP. Cheers horse.
thanks!
2x
Hes speaking in .25 speed bruh
A little tip: could you please write the names of the headphones when you show them? Names are soooo long and sometimes not-native english speakers struggle to understand them... Thanks!
Noted, thank you!
@@mrkwd I only speak English but I Agree!!!
True
@@gherkinng2666 i agree
Check the description.
Did I miss any awesome budget ANC headphones out? Let me know what I should have included and I'll link the most popular ones in the description 🔥
How about the upgraded (I think) version the TaoTronics [2019 Upgrade] SoundSurge 60 Bluetooth 5.0. There about £60
OneOdio A9?
on my opinion the Sony WH-CH700N after the price drop is the best one right now on Amazon with 104.50$ , link down

Mpow h18 better than the h12
Just ordered the taos thanks for this video man really helped me narrow down my choice, the lack of sound impact and the comfort of the taos looks like a winner for me
@Iwo Smura hi I'm from the present XD
Yeah they are great, I've yet to have to charge the case for them more than once or twice so they last a while and they pair great to my phone. They are comfy and look good. The only downside was they did sound a bit odd on my Spotify on the phone but a few tweaks in the equaliser set that right
5:00 You've just solved my problems. I'd like to find a budget ANC headphone that could handle with background voices. MPOW H12...here we go! Thanks a lot!
Did a lot of research and found so many good reviews for the Taotronics SoundSurge 46. Getting some for my birthday and I'm super excited thanks for the tips!
No problem, you'll love them! Happy birthday bro!
I wish you had included the Tribit QuietPlus 72 headphones in this review. I find them a stunning and superb value and the fact that they can also be used with a cord is a huge plus these models apparently don’t have. Otherwise a good review.
fam, cords in today's age?
@@fumetsu-950 cord has better quality. There's a reason why majority of musicians don't use wireless for serious work.
@@fumetsu-950 I like cords
Taotronics are great for the price! Got a pair here now and I'm really happy with them 👍
Does the ANC drown out peoples conversations? One of the only reasons i would buy a pair is for ANC to drown out peoples conversations.
@@crystalnight5641 Nah the ANC isn't great, but none are at that price point from what I've read? I didn't buy them for the ANC though and everything else about them is sweet for the price!
@@crystalnight5641 Actually I'll take that back. Just got a pair of Sony WH-CH700N headphones for an amazing price in a Black Friday sale and the Taotronics have much better noise cancellation in comparison.
There's a great video here that compares the Taotronics 060's to top of the range Bose and Sony's and they hold up very well indeed for the price you're paying!

@@OldSchoolVibes1978 Thank you!! I'll definitely be getting those
Dan San ...Yes I can't hear my wife nagging me anymore.
I'm here to talk about the TaoTronics pair of headphones after more than a year of use:
- *Sound.* Not bad at all. Of course not on the level of $200+ but reasonably good!
- *ANC.* It's kinda broken (in my case) and is not usable anymore. As you tilt the headphones the way the ANC works changes. If you turn the earcups out it almost cuts off ANC completely.
- *Comfort.* This is a very difficult one here. I can still wear them for hours long without any discomfort but the earpads are broken as well. The seam has broken, the cushions look like they were used for ages (bcoz of sweat), they're now not pleasant to eyes and you can feel the internal foam with your ears (not the best feeling I would say).
- *Battery.* We all expect modern day batteries to degrade, that's how they work but this headphones don't live for what they used to 6 months ago. I could use them for more than 16 hours in 3 days and would still feel ok the 4th day (at 70%-90% volume) but now they work for 10 - 12 max hours and so it makes you feel like they last nothing after you had almost the double of time a few months ago. But the fast charge is still there.
- Also... Micro Usb. (wasn't a big problem for me but might be for you)
*So, I would conclude by telling that these pair of headphones are not really worth it. Yes they work excellent for a year but then they just brake in every possible way. You could save that money and gain the same amount the next year to buy a better quality headphones that only for double the price will offer a better overall sound, ANC and will probably serve you well as many as 3 or 4 times more years.*
My philosophy is to thumbs up anything I watch. However, this review was 5stars, and I'm subscribed. Great work!
I had no idea Anthony Padilla was doing tech reviews now
I picked these Anker Sound Cores up at Walmart on clearance 3 months ago for $25 no lie. There were 2 available and somebody snagged the 2nd pair while I was looking them over, otherwise I would've bought them both!
These are my first and only ANC headphones so I'm obviously a bit more satisfied with that aspect of them. But yeah I'm super happy with them. Awesome videos BTW.
Based on this video I brought a pair of Taotronics Soundsurge 46’s. I managed to get a pair for £35, which is insane. I have a pair of Jabra earbuds with anc which cost £140 and the Taotronics are just as good. Thanks for letting me know about them!
Bit late but where did you get them? I'd like to buy a pair for such a cheap price like that.
@@SirSkyro they were from Amazon, there was only the one pair available so I imagine they were a return. 1 year on though and they are still just as good!
@@mmeredith27 is it comfortable while using it for long hours??
he looks like the mandolorian
He looks like the dude who betrayed mando
So where da fook is baby Yoda
@@jaysee6619 😂😂😂 he really does
WOW , THE ITECKNIC LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE THE TOSHIBA RZE-BT1200H ... AWESOME, FROM THE HEADSET CASE TO THE HEADSET ITS SELF EXACTLY LOOKS LIKE TOSHIBA HEADSET
I am faced with the choice of buying Sony WH-1000XM4 vs mu6 space 2 or anker soundcore life q30 how to compare them in terms of the quality of noise reduction, the quality of sbrorki materials ? mu6 space 2 quality build?? metal hinges and headband?
Hello! What brand do you recommend for listening to audiobooks? Thank you!
The new version of the Mpow H12 has bluetooth 5.0 now
Yes, I have it
@@vunniee how are those?
@@EnterpriseKnight They audio is not bad but is very sharp but it could be fixed with an equalizer. Comfort is okay but not very good. Noise cancelling is really good with low tones, but you still here voices very clear. Overall they are very good headphones for the price.
It does, however, my music skips regularly when my phone is just in my coat's inner pocket. Comfort is not comparable to other soft padded headbands, it starts to hurt in 30-60min for me... thinking of sending them back, sadly, the sound is great though!
@@vunniee frusky
Great review, I recommend the soundsurge 46. Would've loved to have the Tribit ANC headphones in there too.
How much are they mate? Cheers
@@noahramirez6156 about 60-70 bucks!
@@JVK69 your still up too and thanks!
@@JVK69 where can I buy it?
@@HeTookThem I got it from Amazon, but you can get it pretty cheap from their official website
Which one of these headphones have the best bass?
the taotronics separate power control for ANC is a FEATURE, not a bug
it means you can use these for ANC without music or other sound, say for going to sleep in a room with a loud air conditioner
if i would like to choose the best ANC which one is the best?
if i would like to choose the best sound which one is the best?
Lastly, which one you recommend the choice of good ANC with good base sound?
Thanks for your advice...wait for your expertise response....
I thank you for putting links for lots of different countries
Npow H18 is one of the best headphones in my opinion. The bass when you turn on the ANC is amazing.
This is a great video! I was wondering which one would best fit my needs (lots to keep track of in this video!)
I’m a female, so I don’t have a massive head. I work from home and this month, I’m moving to a new construction neighborhood. Listening to the garbage truck right now is horrible enough, I don’t know how I will be able to handle construction for a year. So most important: noise cancelling, comfort (will be wearing 8 hours a day), and able to take calls (conference calls). Less important, style, case included, battery life, and I guess sound quality (though the higher quality the better of course). Can you recommend which option would fit my needs the most? Thanks!
Thanks. Great video. Very helpfull. Do you prefer the
mpow h12 over the h17?
MOISES GUERRA mpow h12 because it’s has more balanced and stronger sound and better ANC but the mpow h17 has better comfort and fast charging.
Just watched your video,Pls between the baseus do2 pro and beatstudio 3, which would you recommend to buy at the store rn
What about when it comes to the sound that is bleeding out? Is there a particular model that does noticably better than the other ones? I like listening to music in my bed late at night, and my wife gets super cranky when my music wakes her up.
That’s what I was hoping to hear about
You lost me raving about the Anker Soundcore audio quality. RTings, which does extremely thorough audio testing, has the Soundcore as very average sounding. I guess thats the problem with everyone's differing opinions on sound, is you don't actually know how good they will sound until you try them yourself. Some people really prefer bass and that sways their entire opinion on audio quality. However, I have found that rtings does a very accurate test of audio quality and measures all features independently.
RTings, though, is probably much more critical than the average listener, and they rate almost every headphone pretty low - I mean, low enough that most people probably wouldn't buy any of those headphones if they were depending solely on the ratings there. Their very highest rated audiophile headphones, the best of the best, are rated an average of 8.5, but you'd have to pay over $1500 for those. So I guess what I'm trying to say is that for most of us, when it comes to Rting's ratings, we have to settle on a pair of headphones DESPITE whatever negative things RTing's might have to say about them. ;)
Rtings rates headphones according to their frequency response, they don't actually listen to music on those headphones. So it's a bit of a very scientific rating and not neccesarely counter-arguing ratings of other reviewers.
which are better to take? Please advise ...mpow h12 or mpow h17????
The iTeknics are on sale for Cyber Monday on Amazon, now for $20.
Hi! Wich of the 1st and 4th heasphones you think is more comphy?
Great review video! Loved that you included the links and kept the review relatable and laid back.
What would you choose between Anker Soundcore Life Q20, Soundsurge 85, Mixcder E9, MPOW H21/H12
Thank you for this. The Cowin e7 pro upgraded seems to be the best budget noise canceling bluetooth headphones. Anyone know about these?
Thinking of getting some taotronics soundserge 90s? Worth it or should i get something else?
I have the MPOW H12 headphones.
After about 3 months or so, the ANC seems to have degraded in quality. When new, there was a noise-cancelling air pressure that masked a mildly noticeable white noise. However, now the air pressure is much less, and the white noise is a louder hiss. It still cancels certain noises, but the hiss sound is kind of annoying, and the ANC makes the sound quality less bassy.
What I'm looking for though is the mic noise cancelling. Not the one that makes you deaf. 🥲
Well u have a new sub
Keep the high quality reviews and I assure u I'll be only one of many 😂😂😤👊🏽
Thanks so much Kenlin, means a lot!
@@mrkwd you should heart you own comment, every UA-camr does!
Would any of these be decent for gaming? I'm looking for an all rounder that can be used for commuting as well as gaming in the evening.
Allan O'Donnell I can garantee none of these would be good for gaming, unfortunately nobody’s really released any noise canceling gaming headphones but if you really wanted have noise canceling headphones for that Bose have really good headphones that work for anything.
@@oliverhoffman4574 thanks for replying, I've since done my homework and have decided to purchase some sennheiser HD 599 earphones and a cheap desktop mic.
What do you mean by “voices” all through this vid?
This review is very outdated seeing as all the links in the description (atleast for the US links) are either unavailable or removed. Obviously you could look up the headphones and find other sellers but I would suggest to check out the links again and make sure they're still working.
do you recommend the anker soundtrack q20 in the second place after the soundsurge47?
All now are talking about Bose NC 700 headphones. It is also noise cancelling. Will you test it? I'm interested in your opinion
When will you do an updated review for 2020
Can you help? This is what I need, must be wireless and i won’t use them for music, so bass etc doesn’t bother me... I will use them for audiobooks only and the more it drowns out a Hoover, chatter the better, what would you go for? Budget is about £130 at most. 🙏🏻
Thank you for your video, it really helps me, can you say something about the Boltune Nc headphones too, do you know them?
How are you able to postthe best headphones of 2020 in the middle of 2019?
He probably just changed the title to get more views
Which of these can function with battery turned off?
I found the pow h12 one costs only 13 £ on Amazon, is it as effective as the 50 one ? Thanks !!
Tell me I wanted to buy headphones mu6 space 2 active noise is it better than Anker Soundcore Life Q30 in noise reduction in sound quality ?? mu6 space 2-quality manufactured ??
what do you think about the energy sistem headphones?
Where can I find these taotronics? Are they not selling them anymore
I need one for the gym which one will you recommend me ?
None
@@Sora_Nai to late 😂
are this also good for calls?
JAYS q-Seven Wireless should be very nice and won a couple of tests. Have you tested them?
I Just ordered the TaoTronics. $60 on Amazon. Thank you
i hope you got a new pair and not a return
Came in mint condition and wrapped in plastic. Also, it was sold to me as brand new. With all that said you never know. Regardless, the end result is I’m happy with them 😊
@@waynedexter you got very lucky because the ones I got were basically in plastic butt rip to pieces missing the charging cable and the audio cable and will not pair to my phone luckily I am a prime member so I did not have to worry about them trying to charge me to ship it back Amazon has been pretty good with returns I just can't trust a company that would sell me something that was obviously returned
Which one provides better noise cancellation, these ones or 3M Peltor X5?
Really enjoyed the video and content, I tend to think you pay treble for the brand name. Anyone know which has the best bass sound?
Have you been able to try any of the new TaoTronics? I am looking into the SoundSurge 55s just want to know how they stack up?
1:35 yay
At that price in my country I have JBL 750BTNC 😁JUST BUYED!
Have you examined the sound surge 55 yet? They have a sony chip. I just ordered the updated 46's based on your video...but I'm thinking I should return and get the 55's. There aren't really any reviews out yet though.
No Oneodio A9? Would have been nice to have them compared against the 5 mentioned.
Thank you for the very detailed Description Section 👍
Great video! It would have been great if you would have had text on the names of the headphones on the screen as you talked about
are these good for cutting grass? Airpods can hardly cancel out the mower.
How would you rate the taotronics for music like metal?.
id recommend to dont overuse the aperture of the camera
already got hands on the taotronics soundsurge 55? would be great to see if these are topping the rest for just under 100 punds
Your critique is fantastic keep up the great job.
Hi I listen to mainly metal music what headphones would you recommend
Does the taotronics headset have a good microphone?
Soundcore Life Q20 vs Taotronics BH-085, which headphones have a better ANC?
Where should be in your list the tribit quiet plus?
Great video, which one would you recommend for listening to metal.
Marshall headphones, of course.
Are any in particular good for active people?
Anyone know where to buy the taotronics? Can’t find them on Amazon unfortunately 😕
Do they hurt if you wear them longer?
I have the sony xm3 earbuds but i also use the budget MPOW H7 ,Anker Q20 and the Tao tronics.
Can you tell me which one is the best overall... Is it anchor?
Do they have in built microphones for attending online classes
the new version of the soundsurge 46 has a 3.5mm jack and it can fold up
Could you show the link of the new ones. If so that would be awesome!

In that link description it says no where they are foldable
how about the Cowin 7 pro vs your top pick Tao Tronics
Hey bro. Please tell me which headphone is best for Workout and running?
I think it would be ear phones lol I dont think headphones are the go to for working out! hopefull i helped.
Which one of these do you recommend for noise canceling on airplanes.
The SoundSurge 46 without a doubt
mrkwd - tech guy thank you!
@@Orange2Apple did you try it ?
Thank you thank you I can finally get some good headphones for my kids
Excuse me, I wanna know the bh046, the anc is okay or not?
Which of these headphones would be the best at canceling out the music of a very noisy neighbor?
thank you for this video!
Very good Video Bro thank you
Any recommendation on 30eur headphones that are similar to Ear Force Recon 50X?
I'm a drummer so I need the headphone with a good anc for a budget thanks for the review!!!!👏👏👏
If youre playing rock stuff you're better to have a pair of inears and put noise defenders over them. Sony wh1000 ones still have quite a lot of bleed.
can you try noon east hush over ear anc based on experince it's going to be worth it of your review

Hey! Firstly, love your videos. Very informative, easy to navigate, and entertaining. So, thank you.
Secondly, If you could take a look at the Lenovo X1 ANC headphones and give your opinion, I think you would be shedding some light on a premium ANC headphone that is being over-looked. Or maybe I'm completely wrong and they are being overlooked for a reason. *shrugs*
I'm getting the Taotronics sound surge!!
THANK YOU!
hey dude. what do think about bluedio t7.
Waiting on your review of the JBL Tune 750BTNC. Please!
Hi, Can you help me? I bought myself some MPOW H12's primarily for long flights. I think the H12's ANC is simply brilliant for zapping 'air roar'. Now I want to get the missus an ANC headset for Xmas. I could get her her own H12's but there's a tiny problem in that she finds them slightly too big for her small head. She says the ear pieces sit too low over her ears. So of the five sets you reviewed, which would be the best fit for her? Many thanks.
Hey, I just laid them all out and the MPOW H12s are actually one of the biggest of the bunch. The Mixcder E9s are the smallest in this video. So if the H12s were considered a large size, I'd say the E9s are a medium size by comparison. I just posted a new video about the Tribit Quiet Plus and they are *even smaller* than the E9s if you're worried about the E9s still being too big. Hope that helps buddy!
@@mrkwd very many thanks for this. It's not easy to glean this kind of info from the individual specs.
@@mrkwd Hi again. Just to say I watched your review of the Tribit QuietPlus & I was so impressed by your enthusiasm that I decided to get them for wifey! I sent off for my 40% discount code & got an instant, positive email response. If I've read things correctly, I just order through Amazon on Dec 16th & they deliver to the UK. Hopefully lots of people are watching your review & going likewise! Thanks again.
I need good noise canceling headphones to help me with my school and daily life because with my adhd and misophonia outside noises really mess me up, but I don’t quite have 300 dollars to put down on headphones
What about the microphone quality for calls?
