These headphones rival Sony and Bose, fans say — they're just $32 for a short time

Yahoo2 days ago
It's no mystery why Tozo earbuds are popular — the low price and high quality make for a compelling buy. Now, the company is hitting that sweet spot again with its over-ear HT2 Headphones, on sale at Amazon. Fans compare them to higher-end options like Sony or Bose, which should tell you something: It's time to grab a pair for yourself. They're down to $32 thanks to a limited-time Lightning Deal — the lowest we've ever seen them.
Why is this a good deal? 💰
Those Sony headphones we mentioned? Some of them go for nearly $400. These Tozos are less than a tenth of that price. (Even Sony's most affordable option, the WH-CH520s, are $49.) At 36% off, Tozo's HT2s are the lowest price we've seen them and, quite frankly, a no-brainer. They're also available in seven colors, though prices vary by color.
Why do I need these? 🤔
Let's start with the battery life. These cans get 60 hours of playback on a single charge, which is absolutely bonkers. That's more than 700 songs or nearly 10 coast-to-coast flights. The battery life drops a bit when you use ANC (active noise cancelling), but you're still looking at about 40 hours of crisp, clear audio excellence.
Don't worry, though. Even if they do manage to run out of juice, you can connect them through a wired connection to continue listening without missing a (literal) beat. The 40-millimeter drivers produce fantastic sound, including crisp high notes and clear bass. The ear cups are made of soft leather and automatically adjust to your head.
The Tozo app lets you tweak the settings for different types of music. When it's time to stop listening, these fold up for easy storage and transport.
What reviewers say 💬
These headphones have nearly 3,000 happy fans who vouch for their quality.
Pros 👍
"These were purchased to replace a pair of Sony CH520s that got paint all over them. I think these Tozo headphones are better in every regard," one fan said. "They are comfortable (I wear glasses). The ear cups are ergonomic; each side has a range of pivot at the headpiece; the headpiece is adjustable (fits my weird head); the crown of the headpiece has nice padding. ... They sound amazing. The bass is deep without any adjustments. The sound is clearly better than the Sony."
Another thrifty reviewer also wrote that the sound is on par with higher-end models. "I lost a pair of Bose over-the-ear headphones (yes, that was a painful $375 loss). I wanted to buy another set, but not at $375. Then I read about the quality and reliability of this brand, Tozo! What a wonderful surprise. The quality is comparable to my previous set."
"These are amazing," echoed a third thrilled buyer. "For the price, you will not find any better headphones out there. They are comfortable, noise-cancelling is excellent and the sound quality is unsurpassed. They pair very easily, and the app lets you adjust your EQ to suit your tastes. Great buy."
Cons 👎
Just because they can be used wired doesn't mean there are no strings attached (so to speak). "One downside I found was [that] the wired connection does not allow for noise cancelling. So if you are connected to something like a laptop that doesn't have Bluetooth, they will then work like regular headsets. So you may want a Bluetooth adapter in that case," shared one shopper. (If you need one, we recommend the TP-Link Bluetooth Adapter.)
Another fan offered an audio-related gripe: "My only complaint is the beeping sound the headphones make when they have a low charge. I wished the sound could have been a little bit less sharp."

Narrowing the focus, Hologic has also underperformed the industry-focused iShares U.S. Medical Devices ETF's (IHI) 10.3% gains over the past 52 weeks and 5.9% returns in 2025. While Hologic has underperformed the broader market over the past year, it has observed significant gains in recent months. Its stock prices have shot up more than 20% in the past three months alone. Further, HOLX stock gained 2.8% in the trading session following the release of its better-than-expected Q3 results on Jul. 30. The company's topline for the quarter inch up 1.2% year-over-year to $1.02 billion, surpassing the consensus estimates by 1.7%. Moreover, its adjusted EPS grew by 1.9% to $1.08, coming ahead of the management's guidance range and beating the Street's expectations by 2.9%. For the full fiscal 2025, ending in September, analysts expect Hologic to deliver an adjusted EPS of $4.24, up 3.9% year-over-year. The company has a mixed earnings surprise history. While it missed the Street's bottom-line estimates once over the past four quarters, it surpassed the projections on three other occasions. The stock has a consensus 'Moderate Buy' rating overall. Of the 19 analysts covering the stock, opinions include six 'Strong Buys,' two 'Moderate Buys,' and 11 'Holds.' This configuration is slightly more optimistic than two months ago, when five analysts gave 'Strong Buy' recommendations and only one analyst suggested a 'Moderate Buy' rating. On Aug. 6, RBC Capital analyst Conor McNamara upgraded HOLX from 'Sector Perform' to 'Outperform' and raised the price target from $72 to $87. As of writing, Hologic's mean price target of $73 suggests a modest 5.8% upside potential from current price levels.
