What customers like about TaoTronics TT BH028

  • Incredible sound quality for the budget-friendly price point
  • Lightweight and comfortable design suitable for long listening sessions
  • Detailed audio performance, specifically noted as good for studio recording and live streaming
  • Effective noise-canceling microphone for clear voice calls

What customers don't like about TaoTronics TT BH028

  • Potential long-term durability issues, with some users reporting the right channel failing after 1.5 years
  • Relatively short battery life of approximately 15 hours compared to newer competitors
  • Not recommended for strenuous exercise or intense physical activity
  • Mainly plastic construction can feel somewhat easy to break
  • Small earcup size may not fully cover larger or prominent ears

Verdict

The TaoTronics TT-BH028 is a budget-friendly pair of over-ear wireless headphones featuring dual 40mm drivers that deliver a frequency response of 20Hz to 20KHz. Utilizing Bluetooth 4.1 connectivity with a 33-foot range, these headphones provide approximately 15 hours of audio playback on a single 2-hour charge, while also offering a 3.5mm wired mode for unlimited use. Key characteristics include a foldable design for portability, soft protein memory foam ear pads weighing 215g for lightweight comfort, and on-ear controls for volume and track management. Main pros include its active noise cancellation (ANC) capabilities for immersive listening, a built-in cVc 6.0 noise-cancelling microphone for clear hands-free calls, and a detachable tangle-free cable. However, some cons include the use of older micro-USB charging rather than USB-C, a lack of neodymium magnets compared to higher-end models, and reports of a 'flat' sound profile with limited audio separation for discerning audiophiles.
