Today we have their newest product for review the Tagg Airbuds wireless Bluetooth earphones. The earphones come with a metal housing with the magnetic lock which is popular these days.

Design
The earphones are offered in a single-color tone, ‘Black’ with the earphone’s housing made out of metal. There is nothing extraordinary here, with the design being similar to a bunch earphone already in the market. The earphone housing carries a 6mm driver unit, which is backed by a rechargeable battery. The earphones come with the magnetic lock which is popular these days.
On the connectivity front, the earphones come with Bluetooth 4.2 support out of the box. One thing to note here is that earphones can only be paired to a single device at a time. Features like AptX or Bluetooth LE are missing. Another thing missing here is some sort of IP dust and water resistance rating.
The cable is reasonably long, and the control module is placed on the right for easy access. The module here has three buttons, out of which, two are for volume and tracks adjustment, while the third one is a power button. On the opposite of the lies the micro-USB charging port.
Performance
The earphones get reasonably loud considering their size. The pairing process was hassle free, and we didn’t notice any issues here. The connection was pretty stable with zero drops. During our testing, we used the earphones for a number of scenarios, including exercise and commute. The slightly angles earphones design helped them to stay in the ears firmly. The wings used here could have been a little smaller, as sometimes they tend to hurt.
Talking about the battery, the earbuds come with a 90mAh battery which gives a maximum of 6 hours backup. With moderate usage, the earbuds can easily last 1-2 days on a single charge and top up times are also less.
