A great pair of earbuds is worth its weight in gold, and Tozo has been killing it lately. The brand's T20s — one of its latest models — have arrived with a whopping 48.5 hours of battery life, plus noise cancellation and a waterproof rating that means they'll probably survive a quick shower, although we don't recommend it. (By the way, wash your ears!)

A 55% price break is reason enough to buy, but the double discount — a sale plus a coupon — means you can buy two for the price of one. All four colors are on sale, so we recommend the green. (It has a nice teal undertone, and aren't you tired of basic black?)
Why do I need these? ????
We've seen a lot of earbuds that advertise crazy-long battery life, but most have a caveat. Not these. Tozo T20s give you 13 hours of playback on a single charge, and over 48 hours including the case — that's wild for a pair of earbuds. (In comparison, Apple's AirPods top out at five hours on a single charge, and 30 hours with the case.) An LED indicator shows you how much charge each bud and the case itself has left.

There are multiple built-in equalizations, or EQs, within the app to help fine-tune your listening experience. On the comfort front, these are outstanding — they include six different ear tips for that just-right size. They're also IPX8 waterproof, which helps them withstand sweat and rain, so you can wear them no matter how miserable the weather or tough the workout.
Tozo earbuds change the game when it comes to battery life, outlasting Apple and plenty of other high-end competitors. (Amazon)
What reviewers say ????
These little earbuds have a quickly growing fanbase of more than 3,200 five-star reviewers who say it's hard to do better for the money.
Pros ????
"The price point is unbeatable and the quality is surprisingly excellent. They are comfortable to wear, which is important to me as I wear them all day long," described one five-star user, who uses them mostly for remote work. "They reduce background noise both for me as I am listening and reduce my background noise for those in the meeting with me."
Another customer said, "The fit surprised me — I'm usually not a fan of earbuds with stems, but these stems are shorter than others and I think for that reason in combination with the in-ear soft plugs just fit great. The benefit of the stem design is the microphones are better positioned to pick up your voice, so this is a great balance between voice pickup on calls and fit."

Another five-star customer uses them along with another pair of Tozos, the T12s. "I travel on long-haul flights often and wanted a better fit and longer battery life, so I am trying out the T20s. ... I prefer the sound of the T12s, but the fit of the T20s, so use the T20s for when I will be wearing them for several hours (like binge-watching movies on 15-hour flights) and when exercising (they stay in better), and will use the T12s when I want better sound for shorter periods."
Cons ????
"I just wish it had a separate power level for each earbud," critiqued a four-star reviewer. "I also wish it came with a clip attachment on the case for hooking it to my keys or belt loop, instead I had to buy a case cover."
Another user warned that while the mics are fine for phone calls, they don't work well for recording. "The only thing I would say is I dislike the microphone. My friends were saying that they could hear me just fine, but it wasn't good enough to use for [a] podcast episode."

Forget the rain — these earbuds won't mind, and with more than two days of battery life, frequent charging will be a thing of the past.
