Design & Comfort
The TaoTronics SoundLiberty 79 True Wireless Earbuds have a very stylish design and are sort of low-profile. This makes them not too obvious when worn. The experience of wearing these earbuds for extended periods is thoroughly pain-free. This due to the fact that they have an ergonomic design which makes them sit quite snug in the ears.
These buds come with multiple different-sized ear tips and ear hooks too. The ear hooks are essentially meant to prevent the earbuds from budging when you use them while you are busy doing any sports or exercise. Additionally, each earbud features LED lights that blink when the buds are pairing.
The case of these earbuds is highly portable because of its small size. The earbuds and their charging case are mostly a very nice matte black finish.
These earbuds are available in the following colors.
- Silver Black.
- Classic Black.
Charging Case
The portable charging case has a USB-C port at the back while the front has a bar of LED lights to show the power status.
From the earbuds, you get 8 hours of use meanwhile the charging case offers another 22 hours. This brings the total battery life to 30 hours.
Sound Quality
The volume is adequately loud. These earbuds are sufficiently bass-heavy, the vocals are very crisp with really nice highs and the overall sound quality is very clear.
Call Quality
These wireless earbuds feature the AI Noise Reduction Technology for clear call quality. Keeping in view the price of these earbuds, the call quality is indeed clear. The microphone eliminates background noise quite well if your surroundings are noisy.
Bluetooth
The SoundLiberty 79 wireless earbuds consist of Bluetooth 5.0 and the connection is stable. You do not get dropouts or disconnects. However, you do get a bit of delay if you use these for videos or games. The connectivity range is 66 feet.
They will turn on instantly and start pairing once you lift the charging case lid. These wireless earbuds can function in stereo mode as well as independent of each other.
Control Features
The controls on the TaoTronics SoundLiberty 79 earbuds are fully touch-sensitive which you can use to navigate through the different features. No physical buttons to press. Here are some of the controls:
By tapping the left earbud you can decrease the volume and to raise it you can tap the right earbud, tap the left earbud thrice for the previous track, and the right earbud thrice for the next one. To play or pause your music, all you have to do is tap either one of the earbuds twice.
Water Resistance
These wireless earbuds possess an IPX8 Waterproof rating and as a result, these can handle coming into contact with splashes of water, sweat, and rain. Hence, you can wear these for sports and exercise and not have to stress about these getting ruined because of sweat.
ANC ( Active Noise Canceling Technology )
