Third-party reviews

What customers like about TaoTronics TT BH22

  • Incredible value for money at a bargain-bin price point
  • Comfortable for long-term wear due to soft foam and faux leather padding
  • Long battery life, typically lasting between 20 to 25 hours
  • Effective Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) for low-frequency sounds like fans or traffic
  • Highly portable design that is lightweight and folds into an included hard carrying case
  • Supports the aptX Bluetooth codec for improved wireless streaming quality

What customers don't like about TaoTronics TT BH22

  • Mediocre build quality dominated by plastic that can feel cheap or hollow
  • Sound quality noticeably degrades when ANC is turned off while in wireless mode
  • ANC is less effective at blocking high-frequency sounds or human voices
  • Earcups are on the smaller side and may be uncomfortable for users with larger ears
  • Micro-USB charging port instead of the more modern USB-C
  • No built-in support for voice assistants like Siri or Google Assistant

Verdict

The TaoTronics TT-BH22 is a pair of budget-friendly over-ear Bluetooth 4.2 headphones featuring 40mm drivers and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) designed to reduce low-frequency ambient sounds. They offer a comfortable, lightweight (254g) foldable design with soft faux leather ear pads and a battery life providing up to 25–30 hours of continuous wireless playback. Key pros include exceptional value for the price, a durable build with metal-reinforced hinges, and a high-quality included hard carrying case. However, some users note cons such as a bass-heavy or muddled sound signature when ANC is deactivated, subpar microphone quality for calls, and the use of an outdated Micro-USB charging port.
