Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great pair of earbuds. Provides deep rich sound quality as any high end audiophile headphone would. Good solid quality and on par (if not better) with all of the other major name brands.

Let me start by saying that if you are looking for premium ANC earbuds for commuting, these are not for you. They do an ok job filtering the lowest frequencies, but anything higher than, probably a few hundred Hz, no dice. While waiting for my train, passing trains completely drown out my music (I actually feel like the train noise is being piped in through the buds). On the train I hear every creak, bump, etc. I can clearly hear announcements. And conversations are audible (though not always intelligible). Additionally, while walking with ANC enabled, even a light breeze rumbles through the earbuds (absolutely no wind suppression). It's a shame because the sound quality is excellent. Unfortunately, that's about the only real positive I can report. These buds ship with 7 ear tips sizes - which gave me hope that I would find a good fit. It's unfortunate that 5 of the 7 are medium and smaller. And the "large" and "x-large" just aren't. And, before you say that's why the ANC is not effective, I have premium silicone tips that seal well and pass the app's fit test. Speaking of the app, though powerful, it is unnecessarily complicated. For instance, there are two different places to set the strength of the ANC (overall strength and, as best I can figure, a frequency filter). The one good thing about the app is the ability to customize the tap controls. I own an almost two year old pair of Sony WF- 1000XM4 that I'm looking to replace. They have very good audio (though not as good as the Technics) and very good ANC (perhaps not quite as good as the current Bose QC2, but pretty close). But overall they check more boxes than the current crop of premium (EXPENSIVE) ANC earbuds I've tried.

Best sound quality of them all. If that is important to you than this is it. Works with any Bluetooth device and up to 3 at the same time Apple pc android it doesn't matter.

Soundstage and quality were what I was looking for, and these did not disappoint.

Excellent Sound Quality and Bluetooth connectivity

Seriously amazing i have airpods sony xm5 and bose these sound the best

The Technics HiFi True Wireless Earbuds aren't the cheapest earbuds on the market, but they sure are worth the price. I am one who enjoys music. I listen almost everyday to a wide variety of genres. I have yet to find something that doesn't sound good with these earbuds! Impressive audio quality is paired with active noise cancellation to deliver the best listening experience. A lot of bluetooth earbuds can only be paired to one device at a time. The Technics earbuds can be linked up to three devices at one time! I love the way they look! The side of the earbuds reminds me of the way a vinyl record is textured. The matching color charging case is small and easily slides into your pocket. The USB C port on the back can be used to charge the case and earbuds, or you can place the earbuds back in the case and sit the case on a wireless Qi charger. It charges wirelessly! Thats a nice addition to this set of earbuds! Controlling, updating, or changing the settings on the earbuds can be done using the downloaded app on your smartphone. It can be customized to work with voice assistants as well! The earbuds are IPX4 water resistant, but the case is not water resistant. Multiple sets of earbud tips are included in the box to ensure maximum comfort and the perfect fit when you put them in your ears. Technics has a history of impressive quality and that is no different with these bluetooth earbuds! You'll enjoy these feature packed earbuds! Go ahead and invest in great audio quality!

Better sound that my Apple pro. Love the blue color.

Got these in to try. I do a lot of yard work around the house and wanted something that would provide some sound cancelation with good audio quality. But also comfortable to wear for hours on end. Build is quite nice. I was a little concerned opening the package but the buds are quite light. I guess the battery in the case that provided multiple recharges was the weight. The case in your pocket isn't an issue at all. Noise cancelation was a big feature for me. They worked quite well. I really enjoyed using the app to maximize this feature and help me select the proper fitting. Really enjoyed this small feature that made a huge difference. Sound quality was really nice. I've had several buds and this didn't drop any quality. I was able to adjust the EQ via the app. And get the type of sound I wanted. No issues here at all! Over the course of utilization. Got a bit of debris flying and sweat. The buds held up quite well. and the IPX4 allowed me to simply rinse them off when done and put in the case. I was not able to test the wireless Qi charging but the included USB-C cable charged them fine and quickly. The App provides charge status and pops up as soon as you open the case on my Android phone. So I was never running out of power during my listening sessions. Highly recommended - work well and really like them!

These earbuds are pretty good the only thing was that the earbuds would say connecting though I am connected. It would be nice too if the earbuds had a longer battery especially for the price. But other than that the earbuds are good.

The Technics EAH-AZ80 True Wireless Noise Cancelling In-ear Earbuds are an excellent option for those looking for high-quality wireless earbuds with noise-canceling capabilities. The earbuds have a sleek and stylish design with a slight ruggedness. The sound quality is outstanding, with crisp, clear audio and a well-balanced soundstage. The bass is deep and punchy without overpowering the lows and highs. The noise canceling technology is effective at blocking out background noise. . Although not considered sports earbuds, I used the earbuds in the gym for a 45-minute workout. The earbuds did not fall off my ears. The Technics EAH-Z80 offers up to 7 hours of listening time, with an additional 15 hours of battery life provided by the charging case. The charging case can be used wirelessly or with a Type C cord. The mic did a good job picking out my voice while drowning out all of the residual noise. This can be attributed to the four mics in each earbud as well as a noise-canceling algorithm. I used the earbuds for several hours and did not experience any connectivity issues. The App provides responsive, customized controls. The main page has all the information and features you will use daily. The App monitors battery power levels in earbuds and the charging case. You can tweet the noise canceling feature on a fly, change the exact level of noise canceling, and toggle through the ambient sounds seamlessly. The App has audio presets; Direct is the default, Bass and Super Bass. The Dynamic and Custom Board (EQ) feature can help you fine-tune the audio output. The earbuds have Alexa built-in, or you can use the voice assistant on your smartphone to control some of the features. The earbuds have wear detection, where you pluck one earbud out, and the audio stops. The Multipoint feature in the App permits you to listen on one device and seamlessly switch to another device (thanks to Bluetooth 5.3) by just pressing play on the other device without first manually pressing pause. So it is super convenient. You can even connect to three devices at the same time. This is good for those using a combination of a Mac tablet, iPhone, or an IOS device. The Technics EAH-AZ80 box comes with wireless buds, a charging case and cable, a user guide, a safety manual, and seven sizes of silicone ear tips to ensure a comfortable and secure fit. The App has settings to improve sound quality with SBC, AAC and LDAC codecs. I found there were no issues with latency for videos but there was a slight delay with gaming. The App is easy to use. It provides an abundance of customized settings that support your listening enjoyment. I would like to see Technics make a couple of App upgrades. Technics should include quick access to the LDAC feature in the home screen. There should be an option to manage the Multipoint pairing in the home screen, so you know which device is connected to the earbuds. And lastly, the EQ only has five bands. Technics should improve the EQ customization. Overall, the Technics EAH-AZ80 True Wireless Noise Cancelling In-ear Earbuds are an excellent option for those looking for high-quality wireless earbuds with noise-cancelling capabilities. These earbuds offer superior sound quality, comfort, and design.

I have had the Panasonic Technics Premium HiFi True Wireless Earbuds for several days now and have listened to them daily. And all that listening was done on a single charge of the case with earbuds stored inside, so battery life seems very good. These EAH-AZ80 earbuds certainly live up to their premium designation, very stylish and elegant design, solid build, and most impressive sound. I feel like they sound better each time I use them. It certainly helps to properly fit the earbuds to my ears and Panasonic gives you seven different sizes to choose from. It can be challenging to figure out which size fits best but finding that good fit is important to get the best audio quality. That is especially important when it comes to getting a rich full sound with lots of bass, as well as for optimum noise cancellation. I find the earbuds to be very comfortable to wear for long periods and easy to insert into the ear, take out, and place back in their case. While I wouldn’t call myself a technical audiophile by any measure, I do appreciate listening to all different kinds of music and these earbuds offer incredible sound across the spectrum. The bass comes across deep yet punchy and you can even feel the kick of the bass drum, while the mid and higher frequencies are clean and bright. I appreciate bass but I really love the high end frequencies from brass instruments and percussion, and these deliver. The Technics Audio Connect app allows complete customization of the sound, using either presets or you can configure your own custom settings using a 5-band equalizer. The same goes for Noise Cancellation and/or Ambient sound settings, all customizable within the app. Basic control adjustments can be made while listening, simply by tapping the earbuds outer shell, and that includes adjusting volume up and down, skipping backward and forward through your playlist, or when taking phone calls, etc. I have listened to everything from Rush to Natalie Merchant and Steely Dan to Waylon Jennings to get broad appreciation of the sound that is delivered by these earbuds, and it was all enjoyable music to my ears. When it comes to assessing noise reduction, I tend to only use earbuds or headphones while listening to music at home, so I can’t comment about how well it works for such things as commuting on public transit, for example. They do seem to work well when my wife is in the room watching television, especially if I am just relaxing and getting lost in the music. In conclusion, I really appreciate all the features that Panasonic packed into these earbuds. They even state in their Quick Start Guide their wish that you go beyond technology and rediscover the magic and emotion that music offers in a diverse culture of music in the world. These earbuds certainly live up to that pledge.

Earbuds are not as expected. The sound is not very loud. Issues with answering calls and audio quality while on call. Used These for an outdoor workout and you can hear the wind in the buds. Never encountered this with other brands. The buds pop out the case if dropped, even on a soft surface. I really wanted to like these n brag all about them but unfortunately I’d be lying.

Haven’t even received these. A week late after a delay and support won’t help in the slightest. Do not buy from Best Buy they will not help you locate them or give you any actual support for solutions besides canceling the order. I’m sure some one stole them and there just covering it up.

Technics are back and these earbuds are right up there with the best of them. Technics was always a brand that was known for high quality audio. The Z80M are exactly that. The packaging is similar to the slight cheaper z60m and the unboxing is identical with what you get in the box. You get 7 different types of ear tips which is a great thing as you’re almost guaranteed to find the best fit for you. The earbuds themselves are extremely comfortable and in the black they are quite discreet, they don’t stick out and they don’t give me any ear fatigue at all. They look great and give you that technics look. These are also ipx4 rated so fine for working out but be aware the case has no ratings at all. The case is a nice size and also supports Qi wireless charging Battery life on these is really good too, I’m getting a hair over 7 hours with ANC enabled and 9 without it which is right up there with the top dogs. These are also the first earbud to offer 3 way multipoint connectivity and it works perfectly. Pause your music on one device and carry on listening on any of the the 2 other device you have paired. I’ve never had multipoint work so well, technics nailed it. The ANC is also right up there with the best you can get providing uninterrupted listening while keeping the high quality audio that these produce. They also have transparency mode which still works great but not quite the quality of the ANC. Overall very solid The app is the same as you use with the z60 and as I mentioned in that review it is by far the best app I’ve used on any earbuds. It’s feature filled and easy to use. Now the most important part. The sound on these is in my opinion the best you can get at this price point. Sound separation is the best I’ve heard with instruments and different voices coming through in rich detail, the lows are so nice and smooth. The soundstage on these is above the rest and offer a consistent high quality no matter what music you play. And with the EQ in the app you can dial them in even more to your liking. Technics hit a home run with these and I highly recommend you trying these over the usual suspects at this price. You will not be disappointed

These are my gym headphones. I passed on the Sennheiser momentum 4 to get these. Soundstage is great.
