One correction: the Oladance OWS Pro can be turned on and off without the case thanks to a power button on the buds! Thanks for pointing it out guys 🙏

Anyone else expect during the mic tests to go "pop pop popsicle, ice ice icicle, test test testicle"? 😂😂😂😂

[MrAzazel]

Pop Pop popsicle, ice ice icicle, test test testing, 1 2 3. That's going to be stuck in my head for awhile. Thanks guys! Great video! ☝️🙏👌🤙

You're the only YouTube reviewers I've come across who called out the OWS Pro for their crackling and static. Support told me this was normal on all headphones and not to be concerned! I sent them back for a refund. Been using Shokz OpenFit and very happy, but tempted to try the AeroFit Pro now! Thanks for your honest reviews.

My google assistant actually activated when you said "hey google" during the bloopers 😂😂

Also great video!

[Gordon]

You guys are actually brilliant. Congratulations on a thorough, detailed and humorous upload!

Came here for the review on tozo open and glad i did. Thanks. I can get them for 45 bucks today.

[faithguy]

I need to get around to trying one of these open ear buds. They sound like they are getting better!

[tdmduc]

Thanks again for a marvelous hand pikt selection of buds😊

One more thing to maybe add to your testung arrangement: wearing comfort for people with glasses. We tried the Openrock S, the 1more fit and the Truefree O1. The Openrock were unfomfortable with glasses, the Truefree remained with us. The 1more were out of the "battle" as they stopped working only hours after unpackaging

I'm liking the 1more S50. I thought I wasn't going to like the ear foot, but actually I don't even notice it's there. The sound is 1more signature. My biggest fault with them is the limited controls. The wear sensor is a good substitute for a pause button.

[lookward]

Cannot imagine the open-ear buds go this far, so many new launches here! Well, I have OpenRock Pro and am super satisfied with its bass!! I really like them- lightweight, great sound, fits my ear well. Anybody here has OpenRock S or 1more SE please? How do they sound?

[alur]

Great great video guys. You are the only to see the tozo open buds in the horizont, and Its true, they are one of the best open earbuds

[dadecounty]

The Shokz openfit currently have the play/pause double tap and long press on left ear bud for volume up vice versa in left right ear bud. Shokz is the best in my opinion.

[plyguy]

No auto-pause for the Open Shokz was the deal killer for me. Almost got them, but didn't thanks to your review!

[valerietg]

Just got the Tozos (on sale for $49.99!!!) thanks to y'all—hadn't heard of them prior to this review. Appreciate your thoroughness!

[nosbusa]

Two days ago on Amazon I bought the Tozo's for 49.99, plus a 2 year warranty on the cheap. So far so good. I haven't used it for calls yet, but for music and podcast they sound great. Great battery life as well.

[Diegog]

Thanks for the effort. I was taking notes and you did an amazing job.

[mihyouko]

Thanks for another great review. I ended up buying the Tozos and I'm pretty impressed. I actually like them more than the Gen 1 Oladance I gave to my partner for her last birthday. As I didn't use the affiliate link (the official Tozo eBay store was much cheaper), let me "super thank" you via YouTube for your work.
Just one question: how did you activate the personalized EQ in the app? Somehow I can only use the presets. Or did Tozo remove this feature?

[Muiscfromthealps]

Great reviews DHRME! You helped us with your helpful details and tips. How about comparing buds live with them?
