Unlike in-ear headphones that block out external noise, the open-ear design keeps users aware of their surroundings, a benefit appreciated by commuters, cyclists, and runners. So here I am to tell you about the recent TOZO Open EarRing, which offers their take on wearable audio, blending comfort, style, and quality. Let's discover them together in this review.
AVAILABLE IN 3 COLORS
The sales package is decidedly simple and well-finished, offering inside only the manual, USB/USB-C charging cable and the Open EarRing already inserted inside the charging case. Weighing just 5,1 grams, these headphones stand out for their open-ear clip design that guarantees low interference with external sounds, while offering extraordinary clarity and audio depth. They are designed for those who are always on the go: morning commutes, fast runs, days at the office where music is the inseparable companion and much more without ever losing sight of the battery life of your sound gadget, thanks to the integration of an LED display that shows both the remaining charge status of the box and the headphones.
As mentioned, the TOZO Open EarRing earphones have a shape similar to an earring, a circular C-shaped clip structure with a steel wire arch with shape memory and a highly resilient silicone coating, which can be bent and always returns to its original shape, thus adapting the shape and width to any ear size. One part rests on the outer ear, which integrates the touch surface, while a ball similar to a piercing is gently placed inside the ear canal without entering inside. For those who are sensitive to prolonged use of earphones, this type of design guarantees optimal comfort without irritating the ear canal.
The minimalist design also extends to the charging case, which has an elegant and compact profile, although we find a decidedly modern feature, namely the aforementioned LED display that provides real-time power updates. There is a hall sensor integrated into the lid with magnetic closure while on the back we find the Type-C input for charging and a button for resetting the product. As mentioned, we can manage multimedia content and calls via touch controls, which can also be customized via the app on both the single earphone. Specifically, we can call up the voice assistant, manage the volume, skip track, play/pause by choosing between single, double, triple tap or long press.
Thanks to the 12 mm dynamic driver, TOZO Open EarRing earphones offer a balanced sound profile with crystal clear highs, warm mids and resonant lows, characteristics often difficult to achieve in open-ear models. These earphones adapt to a wide range of musical genres, with excellent details, without isolating us from the context that surrounds us. The stability in wearing them is also excellent, therefore also ideal for sports activities, so much so that we find the IPX5 certification.
Another significant advantage of the TOZO Open Ear Ring earphones is the battery life: up to 10 hours of playback at moderate volume (about 70%) on a single charge while using the supplied charging case we get up to 40 hours of total playback. Using the USB-C cable, the only charging method, the case fully charges in about two hours, in line with current technological standards. We find a 60 mAh unit on a single earphone and 400 mAh for the charging case, while to get full energy it takes 1,5 hours for the headphones and 2 hours for the case.
These earphones stand out for their background noise reduction thanks to the integrated ENC (Environmental Noise Cancellation) technology for calls, allowing clear voice transmission even in crowded environments, but unfortunately if you use them on a bike or with strong headwinds, the call quality is obscured by the wind noise, so they are suitable for sports but at most for running, walking or other sports but not at high speeds. Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity ensures quick and reliable pairing with low latency with a range of 10 meters. However, it is not possible to use the headphones with two devices at the same time. There is also a companion app that allows you to equalize the sound based on your preferences or draw on the many audio presets designed specifically for musical genres or emphasis of certain frequencies.

The TOZO Open EarRing earphones deliver on the promise of lightness, comfort, audio quality and functionality combined with excellent style. Lots of battery life and surprisingly high-quality bass, almost like in-ear headphones, but without isolating you from your surroundings. They are a useful and convenient choice for anyone looking for a safe and comfortable audio solution that easily adapts to a hectic life. You can find them on Amazon at a very small price, only 25,49 euros, so if you are looking for reliability all day long, these headphones are for you.
