[Trainer-Talk] Looking for earbuds that have decent sound quality and work with voiceover regarding sound as well?

[Christopher Nusbaum]

Hi Kat,

I second Raul's recommendation of the Tozo brand. I prefer in-ear earbuds, so I have the T12 model. They look and feel a bit like AirPods, and I would say the sound quality for listening is at least as good. The main reason I switched from AirPods to the Tozo earbuds is that the T12's mic is much clearer for hands-free phone and Zoom calls. My only problem with them has been an occasional issue where the earbuds say they are connected to my phone, but VoiceOver is still coming from the iPhone's speaker rather than the earbuds. Usually I've found that disconnecting and reconnecting the earbuds or turning the earbuds off then on again will fix that.

Here is the Amazon link to the T12 model: https://a.co/d/1OsyZc6
