Also equipped with Google Assistant and Active Noise cancellation, the device is a feature loaded offering for millennials.


The device packs a punch with its deep bass, and when paired with Hi-Res Audio – it picks up on a wider range of frequencies than regular devices so the listener can hear every note – exactly as the artist had intended. The soft ear-cups give the user maximum comfort, and can be folded neatly into two configurations. They can either be folded flat, perfect for storing in an office drawer or it can be folded inwards creating a compact bundle that fits into coat pockets and bags. Aside from these headphones having a multi-function button, it also supports touch controls. For example, you can control volume by swiping up/down on the ear-housing. You can also cycle through noise cancelling mode or “Awareness Mode” with just a simple tap. Lastly, the Google Assistant can be triggered by covering the right ear cup.



The TAPN505, a lightweight, flexible neckband comes equipped with features like magnetic ear-tips, Google Assistant and Active Noise Cancellation. With 14 hours play time plus quick charging, this product offers to make users’ listening experiences seamless. Along with listening to music, one can open the calendar, read notifications from the phone, call or send messages to friends, manage playlists, and more without having to take out their phone thanks to the Google Assistant.

Smooth, adjustable headband (TAPH805/TAPH802)

Touch Control (TAPH805)

All four wireless Bluetooth headphones come with line-in port which enables continuous wired listening – even if the battery is drained. Once first-time pairing is complete, Bluetooth 5.0 ensures they always connect to the last device they were paired to – so for personal use, these are ideal as the connection happens instantly.
