Our Verdict
TaoTronics SoundSurge 60 Wireless
Mpow H10 Wireless
The Mpow H10 Wireless are better headphones than the TaoTronics SoundSurge 60 Wireless. Their ANC features are practically identical, but our Mpow didn’t show any mismatch in their drivers, resulting in a better overall sound than the TaoTronics. They also have very good battery life on top of a standby mode, which the TaoTronics are lacking. They have low latency for Bluetooth headphones, too. However, the TaoTronics are better-built and leak noticeably less than the Mpow.
