Over 50,000 shoppers are fans of these earbuds, just $13 for a limited time
These Tozo earbuds are incredibly popular, especially among buyers who don't want to shell out for Apple or other wallet-punishing brands. They're nearly 60% off now, thanks to this Amazon deal, making an already-good deal even better. When you compare them with the price of AirPods Pro (around $200), it's a no-brainer — these are worth the buy.
What's made Amazon shoppers fall in love with these Tozos other than the incredibly low price tag? Superior audio quality, of course, courtesy of 6mm speaker drivers that produce powerful, crystal lear sound and heart-thumping bass. Trust us, these sound way better than the buds that came with your phone (do phones still come with headphones these days?).
One of my favorite features of these headphones is the Tozo app, which allows you to change how the earbuds actually sound. Want deeper bass? More balanced output? You can dial things in just the way you like it.
Finally, these earbuds have a long battery life. We're talking 32 hours, people: seven hours from the earbuds themselves and 25 hours from their case.
There's a reason we highlight that these have nearly 54,000 five-star reviews. That's a lot of satisfied shoppers.
"Incredible product for the price!" gushed this admiring audiophile. "These earbuds came with all the accessories (charger, earpieces), as well as an 18-month warranty and even an app with 1K EQ presets! The sound is excellent; I use them for sound therapy and brainwave entrainment, binaural beats and isochronic tones as well as solfeggio frequencies."
This very cool aunt bought the A1s for her niece: "They stay in her ears and produce excellent sound quality and a great price! … These are durable and high-quality. The touch features work great, and she loves that she can control the volume and pause what she's listening to/watching without having to touch her tablet... These are great earbuds, especially for a first pair, because if the kids lose them or break them, they are not expensive to replace."
"They connect easily, they're exceptionally comfortable, and the ergonomic design fits perfectly in my ears," praised a repeat customer-to-be. "I've had them for about a week and have yet to charge the case. If I ever need earbuds again, I'll definitely be getting these again."
When it comes to $13 headphones that have all of these features, there's not much you can complain about. Though some still find a way.
Said one sound snob: "These earbuds are more than adequate for listening to podcasts or TV, but for music I would recommend looking at one of their other excellent earbuds, such as their T6 earbuds, which I found to have very good sound quality and are still very comfortable, even though as far as I know they also use a 6mm speaker driver, same size as the A1. As you go up in the Tozo line you start to get bigger drivers (8mm for the T-10, and 10mm for the T12 and T20), so you may be more satisfied with music reproduction with those earbuds."
"My only 'but' so far is that I notice that they fall out of my ears after some time (if I'm doing planks, running, etc.)," cautioned this jeering gym-goer. "Could be just my ears, but for the price, I'll put up with it in the meantime."
If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)

What to expect at Apple's iPhone 17 event
We're likely only around a month away (give or take) from Apple's next iPhone launch event. This year's shindig could see the thinnest iPhone to date joining the iPhone 17 lineup. Also on tap could be new Apple Watch models — including the first Ultra model in two years — and (maybe) the long-awaited AirPods Pro 3. Apple's iPhone family will likely welcome a new member this year. The iPhone Air is expected to be roughly 5.55 mm thick. The thinnest model so far has been 2014's iPhone 6, at 6.9 mm. And they've only gotten chunkier since then. (The iPhone 16 Pro has a depth of 8.25 mm.) So, the Air would stand out from its peers in that respect. It would also give Apple a direct rival to Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge, which we found to be more than a gimmick. But the iPhone Air's thin design will likely lead to some compromises. It's rumored to have only a single 48 MP camera and a smaller battery. So, expect a stylish phone that... won't be for everyone. The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max sitting on a table. (Brian Oh for Engadget) The Pro lineup could offer some design tweaks and performance improvements. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max are rumored to switch from titanium to aluminum. They could also see the rear camera array expand to an entire "island" that extends across most of the phone's backside. It's expected to house three cameras (as before), but multiple rumors have suggested it will have an improved telephoto one. The zoom lens could jump to 48MP, which would strengthen its digital zooming / cropping chops. The phones may also add an anti-glare coating, similar to those found on iPads. The standard iPhone 17 could see some welcome display upgrades. At least one supply chain source claimed it will add a 120Hz variable refresh rate (ProMotion) display, which the Pro series has used since 2021. Apple's iOS 26 Liquid Glass design language. Closeup of the bottom of an iPhone, showing Apple Music's new translucent controls. (Apple) One thing we know without a doubt is that the new iPhones will launch with iOS 26, which brings Apple's biggest design refresh in years. It's easy to imagine the company highlighting the new model's displays as the best way to experience the new Liquid Glass visual language. As for the naming scheme, there haven't been any leaks pointing to a similar hardware rebranding ("iPhone 26," "iPhone 26 Pro," etc.). But hey, Apple does like surprises. Engadget's iPhone 17 rumor roundup gives you a deeper dive into what to expect from the new models. Two Apple Watch Ultra 2 models, propped up on a demo table. Blurred background. (Cherlynn Low for Engadget) Apple's fall event isn't just for iPhones. The company is also expected to roll out new Apple Watch models. 5G and a processor upgrade are expected for the Apple Watch Ultra 3. It may also let you send texts via satellite, handy for those who use it out in the wilderness. Regardless of the details, Apple hasn't launched a new rugged and premium model since 2023 (apart from a new color), so it's due for an upgrade. The Series 11 model is unlikely to depart dramatically from the Series 10. After all, that model introduced a new design, with a thinner body and larger screen. (And Apple has historically kept those around in three-year cycles.). But a faster chip also seems logical. Perhaps we'll see 5G arrive on the standard wearable, too. We may also see the AirPods Pro 3 at the event. It's been about three years since Apple last upgraded its premium earbuds. The new model could also bring some biometric sensors to the earphones: an in-ear heart-rate monitor and (maybe) temperature sensing. Live translation is also rumored, although that may not be exclusive to the third-gen model.

These States Will Let Your iPhone Be Your Driver's License
The digital ID isn't a new concept, though it's taken quite a while to get any traction. However, Apple is making headway by allowing iPhone users to add their driver's license to Apple Wallet, which can be used at TSA checkpoints in airports in certain states. It's a convenient upgrade if you live in one of the supported states and have a compatible iPhone. I tested the feature in California, and the setup process was surprisingly simple. Just keep in mind that you'll need an iPhone 8 or newer running the right version of iOS, and depending on your state's rollout, some users may hit snags. Still, it's a small tech shift that can make your travel day a whole lot smoother. The use cases are extremely limited at this point, and that will likely change as the adoption of the technology grows -- but don't expect to get into a nightclub or a bar with just your iPhone anytime soon. Below, I describe my experience, the hiccups I encountered on the way and things that you should know if you plan on adding your driver's license to Apple Wallet. I'll also break down how you can add your ID to your iPhone, step by step. For more, don't miss these low-key iOS 26 features we're excited for.

This modal can be closed by pressing the Escape key or activating the close button. The Small but Mighty Features of iOS 26 These states support digital IDs on iPhones right now Only a handful of states support digital IDs in Apple Wallet. One key factor is how each state implements its Mobile Driver's License system. For instance, Louisiana, New York, Utah and Virginia all support mobile driver's licenses but require separate apps for digital IDs. States and regions that support digital IDs in Apple Wallet: Arizona California Colorado Georgia Hawaii Iowa Maryland New Mexico Ohio Puerto Rico Some states originally announced to support Apple's digital ID haven't quite gotten there yet. The number of states supported in Apple Wallet is about half of what the TSA currently allows. Collectively, it accepts digital IDs across Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, Samsung Wallet and state-based mobile apps in 15 states. What are the iPhone requirements to add your driver's license to Apple Wallet? Where you live is just the start. You also have to have the right iPhone model and the right software setup. Here are the minimum requirements that Apple lists: An iPhone 8 or later with the latest version of iOS Have Face or Touch ID enabled on your device Have two-factor authentication enabled on your Apple account A license or ID from a participating state or territory Your device's region set to the United States I'll have more to say in a bit about that iPhone 8 and iOS requirement and a catch I ran into. My experience adding my ID to my iPhone was easy For testing purposes, I used the iPhone 16E. The process of adding the ID was simple. I scanned the front and the back of my ID and the next step was to verify my identity. This wasn't nearly as nerve-wracking as I thought it would be. Instead, it took a live photo of my face for 2.5 seconds. After that, more verification was required. This came in a series of different photos, with prompts directing me to close my eyes, open my mouth, smile and tip my head down. This verification process took about three minutes. (Or longer in my case, as I got distracted writing notes about the process and then found I had to restart the whole process.) Then, after I submitted those photos, there was another verification step, presumably with the photos relayed to the California DMV. A screen message told me that I would receive a notification when there was an update. I expected this to take a long time, but not even 10 minutes later, a notification telling me that my ID was ready to use popped up. That was easy. What about older iPhones? So, not every phone you think might work will actually do so. The first time I tested adding my ID, I was using an iPhone 8 Plus. But when I arrived at the setup page within Apple Wallet, I was given eight states to choose from, and California wasn't one of them. That surprised me. I'd found a helpful Apple support article that explained the requirements for adding a driver's license or state-issued ID to Apple Wallet and it seemed like I shouldn't have any trouble. At first, I thought the roadblock was that I hadn't set up Touch ID yet. But no, California was still not on my list of eight states. (Equally confusing, a colleague of mine also tried this with an iPhone 8 and Apple Wallet only listed four states.) I went back to the Apple support article and looked for fine print, and sure enough, there it was. I'd ignored the asterisk in the requirements, because California has had its Mobile Driver's License program set up for some time now. The fine print at the very bottom of the page states, "For California, ID in Apple Wallet requires iPhone XS or later with iOS 17.5 or later." (For Puerto Rico, if you want to add your driver's license or ID to Apple Wallet, you'll need to have an iPhone XS or later with iOS 18.1.) So if you're holding onto an iPhone 8 or iPhone X and live in California, you won't be able to add your driver's license to your iPhone because of the lack of software support. iOS 16 is the last supported version of the operating system for iPhone 8 and X models. How to add your ID or driver's license to Apple Wallet If you live in a state that supports digital IDs for Apple Wallet, it's easy to add one. After it's added, you'll need to verify your identity, which can take a little longer but it's still a straightforward process. Open Apple Wallet . . Tap the Add button. button. Tap Driver's License or ID and select your location. If applicable, choose whether you want to add your ID to your iPhone only or your iPhone and your Apple Watch. Follow the steps to scan your license or ID. (Make sure you scan your ID in a well-lit environment and that the image is in focus.) Once it's scanned, you'll be prompted to confirm your identity with a selfie photo. According to Apple, you may be asked to complete a number of facial or head movements for identification purposes. To ensure an easier verification process, Apple suggests that you: Stand in front of a plain background with neutral, light paint. Be in a well-lit area, ideally indoors. Take off sunglasses, masks, hats or other accessories that could block your face. Hold your iPhone steady. When you're finished, submit your information by confirming with Touch or Face ID. Your biometrics will be bound to the ID, so only you can use it. How to transfer your digital ID to another iPhone If you upgrade your iPhone, you'll need to transfer your ID or driver's license to it. During initial setup, tap Wallet . . Select your ID. Follow the steps. Tap to confirm you want to move your driver's license or ID to the new device. So, now what? Your digital ID isn't just a photo of your ID that you can pull up within Apple Wallet. In fact, you don't even see a full image of your physical ID. In order to actually view your information from your digital ID, you'll need to tap on your ID "card" in Apple Wallet, tap the "i" at the top-right of the screen, and then tap State ID info or Card Information (the wording may be different depending on what version of iOS your iPhone is running). From there, it will show your ID photo as well as essential pieces of information from your physical ID. TSA checkpoints that support digital IDs require a dedicated scanner, so the process may not necessarily feel like it's faster than showing your physical ID to the agent. Here's a video of the process via the Maryland Department of Transportation: The idea of a digital ID is pretty convenient but overall, it probably won't save you a meaningful amount of time. Couple that fact with its incredibly limited use cases right now and the fact that merchant or event adoption will require investment in proper hardware and it's pretty easy to see just how far off we are from ditching physical IDs. Selling or trading in your iPhone? Do this first. When you move on from a phone that has your ID on it, you'll want to do the same thing you do with other sensitive info like credit or debit cards and passwords: Remove it. So before you wipe your iPhone to sell or trade it in, you should manually remove your ID first. Here's how to do it. Go to Apple Wallet and tap your ID in the list in the list Tap the " i " button at the top right of the screen at the top right of the screen Tap Remove State ID (or Driver's License) (or Driver's License) Read the warning that pops up and tap Remove Digital passports are coming to Apple Wallet with iOS 26 Creating a digital ID from your physical passport is coming to your iPhone this year. Apple/Screenshot by CNET While states are taking time to implement digital ID systems, Apple announced a feature coming in iOS 26 this year: You can add a digital passport to Apple Wallet. When that feature is available, iPhone users will be able to scan their passports to create a digital version for identity verification during domestic travel. You won't be able to use it for international travel and it's not a full replacement for a physical passport (so keep your physical one on you) but it should work at the 250-plus supported TSA checkpoints. During its WWDC keynote in June, Apple said that the digital ID made from your passport can also be used "in apps and in person" but it didn't give any specifics. This is essentially what can be done on Android through Google Wallet. Verify with Wallet ID verification could make ordering alcohol easier Also headed to iPhones this fall is an easier way for you to prove your age using your digital ID. Say you want to have a bottle of wine sent to your place via Uber Eats. Typically, when the driver arrives, you'll need to present your ID and have it scanned to complete the transaction but with the new Verify with Wallet, your stored digital ID will be used to verify your age. (I do wonder if things might get more complicated when the delivery arrives if you're not the one receiving it.) Verify with Wallet will be supported by Chime, Turo, Uber Eats and U.S. Bank. For more, don't miss what you should know about flying domestically without a Real ID in 2025.
