Our Verdict
Mpow X3 Truly Wireless
TOZO NC2 Truly Wireless
The Mpow X3 Truly Wireless and the TOZO NC2 Truly Wireless headphones are similarly-designed headphones, but the Mpow are better for most uses. The Mpow have a more stable, comfortable fit, deliver sound more consistently, and have a better microphone performance. Their sound profile is also slightly more neutral, which some listeners may prefer, and they have a better ANC feature, although it's still disappointing. However, the TOZO have much longer continuous battery life. They also have a more bass-rich sound profile, which fans of genres like EDM and hip-hop may like.
