Mobvoi launches TicPods ANC true wireless headphones for $89

Mobvoi, known for its products in the wearable device market, has now announced its new true wireless headphones, TicPods ANC. Earlier this year, the company launched the TicPods 2, a pair of truly wireless earbuds that focused on a smaller form factor. They were alright, but nothing especially impressive. Also Read – Redmi Earbuds S Review: Xiaomi’s budget true wireless earbuds does not surprise

Now the company is back with another set of truly wireless earbuds, this time featuring active noise cancellation. TicPods ANC uses the same active noise reduction technology as other products such as Apple AirPods Pro, Sony WF-1000XM3, and others. The ANC tech helps isolate the music and blocks out the background noise around you. Also Read – OnePlus Buds true wireless earbuds may launch in July with Apple AirPods-like design

Mobvoi also advertises three different ANC modes. A quiet mode, a sound pass-through mode that can then pass through ambient noise, and ANC Off. You can switch between the modes directly via the TicPods ANC. The TicPods ANC has a very similar design to Apple’s standard AirPods. Also Read – TicPods 2, 2 Pro announced with noise-cancellation, new gestures at CES 2020; coming soon to India
