Third-party reviews

What customers like about TaoTronics TT BH060

  • Exceptional value for money, often cited as one of the best budget ANC options under $100.
  • Impressive battery life of up to 30 hours on a single charge.
  • Fast charging feature provides roughly 2 hours of playback from just a 5-minute charge.
  • Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is highly effective for the price point, especially at blocking low-frequency engine rumbles and human voices.
  • Comfortable fit for most users due to plush protein ear pads and an adjustable headband.
  • Includes a high-quality semi-rigid carrying case for portability.
  • Reliable Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity with good wireless range.

What customers don't like about TaoTronics TT BH060

  • Sound quality is often described as 'dark' or 'muddy,' with over-emphasized bass that can drown out mids and highs.
  • Activating ANC can sometimes lead to a noticeable loss in bass and overall sound quality.
  • Build quality relies heavily on plastic, which can feel less durable or prone to creaking.
  • Uses an outdated Micro-USB charging port rather than the modern USB-C standard.
  • Ear cups can trap heat, causing ears to get warm or sweaty during long listening sessions.
  • ANC can remain active even when the headphones are powered off, potentially leading to accidental battery drain if the dedicated switch isn't flipped.
  • Lacks a companion app for custom EQ adjustments or firmware updates.

Verdict

The TaoTronics TT-BH060 (SoundSurge 60) are over-ear wireless headphones featuring 40mm large-aperture drivers and hybrid active noise cancellation (ANC) that reduces ambient sound by up to 30dB. They utilize Bluetooth 5.0 for stable connectivity and boast an impressive 30-hour battery life, supported by 'Hyper Speed' quick charging that provides 2 hours of playback from a 5-minute charge. Main pros include their lightweight 7.7oz foldable design, plush protein ear pads for long-term comfort, and a cVc 8.0 noise-cancelling microphone for clear calls. However, notable cons include a somewhat muddy bass response that can overshadow mid-frequencies, a lack of multi-device pairing support, and the use of an older Micro-USB charging port.
