TOZO NC20 vs TOZO NC9: How the New Model Stands Out

TOZO has been committed to bringing innovative wireless audio gear to offer listeners a satisfying listening experience. Among the many, the TOZO NC series received tons of popularity. For example, TOZO NC9 became one of the fan-favorite wireless earbuds with its excellent sound quality and outstanding noise cancellation performance.

High-Brightness Digital Display 

To the excitement of all TOZO fans, TOZO announced the release of the latest wireless earbuds, TOZO NC20. This new model features upgraded performance and additional smart features. This blog compares TOZO NC20 against TOZO NC9, exploring how the new model stands out.

What Makes a Difference in Audio Quality

Starting with the conclusion, TOZO NC20 makes a huge improvement in audio quality compared to TOZO NC9.


On the driver level, TOZO NC9 employs 10mm dynamic drivers, while TOZO NC20 comes with larger 12mm dynamic drivers. It allows the TOZO NC20 to perform better at producing powerful bass. Furthermore, TOZO NC20’s audio quality is further enhanced by TOZO’s SDLC and EarTune AI technology.

What takes TOZO NC20’s audio quality to an even higher level is its integration of the advanced LDAC audio codec. The codec is often found on high-end models. It ensures a faster data transmission speed that reaches up to 990kbps and the production of Hi-Res audio.

What’s more, TOZO NC20 added a new feature, Spatial Audio. It produces three-dimensional (3D) sound that greatly enhances immersion. Whether you are listening to music or watching films, TOZO NC20 offers better listening experiences.

Noise Cancellation Capability Showdown

Noise cancellation is the most outstanding feature of earbuds in the TOZO NC series. Though TOZO NC9 does a great job, TOZO NC20 still claims the win.

Both TOZO NC9 and TOZO NC20 are built with the powerful hybrid ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) system. This system utilizes the microphones of the earbuds to detect and neutralize the ambient noise. Also, it combines the advantages of both feedforward ANC and feedback ANC, which allows the earbuds to cancel a wider range of noise frequencies with improved efficiency and accuracy. However, TOZO NC20 wins by a higher noise cancellation level of 52 dB, while TOZO NC9’s maximum noise reduction strength is 45dB.

Ergonomic Design 

Besides that, TOZO NC20 is also empowered by the intelligent adaptive ANC technology. It employs advanced algorithms that automatically adjust the noise cancellation strength in real-time according to your surroundings. This smart adjustment ensures you have the perfect noise cancellation strength without the need for manual adjustment.

Battery Life Comparison

For any electronic device, battery life matters, especially for noise-cancelling earbuds, which consume more power. When it comes to battery life and longevity, TOZO NC20 wins again.


During normal listening, the TOZO NC20 lasts up to 15 hours on a single charge, while the TOZO NC9 lasts up to 14 hours. When added with the charging case, the total playtime of TOZO NC20 reaches up to 65 hours, while the TOZO NC9’s total playtime is 59 hours.

When the noise cancellation mode is switched on, a single charge of TOZO NC20 still lasts 13 hours, while the TOZO NC9’s single charge lasts 10 hours. As to total playtime, TOZO NC20 still lasts 43 hours, while TOZO NC9 lasts 42 hours.

New Smart Features That Are Added to NC20

Along with the above upgrade, TOZO NC20 also comes with additional smart features that greatly enhance its usability.

Multipoint Connection

TOZO NC20 can be connected to two devices at the same time thanks to its multipoint connection feature. For example, you can pair the TOZO NC20 to your phone and laptop at the same time. Whether you are on productivity or relaxation, TOZO NC20 ensures you experience a seamless switch without manual reconnection.

SmartPow Technology 

In-Ear Detection

TOZO NC20 has built-in intelligent sensors that detect whether the earbuds are being worn. When the earbuds are taken off, the audio content will automatically pause. When the earbuds are put on, the audio content resumes. This hands-free control perfectly represents the innovation of modern wireless earbuds.

Find My Earbuds Function

Another practical function of TOZO NC20 is “Find My Earbuds”. Small gadgets like wireless earbuds can easily get lost track of. For example, you accidentally drop an earbud to the ground while taking it off. And unfortunately, the earbuds are bounced to god knows where. A situation like this can be annoying. This is where “Find My Earbuds” stands out to be exceptionally practical.
