The HearWiki takeAI-condensed

The Technics EAH-AZ40M2 are a stylish and feature-rich pair of true wireless earbuds that deliver a spacious soundstage and solid performance for their mid-range price. They offer a good set of specifications, including LDAC support and wireless charging, but fall short of top-tier rivals in terms of bass punch and overall noise cancellation strength.

What works

  • Spacious, open soundstage
  • Attractive, compact design
  • Robust feature set including LDAC and wireless charging
  • Comfortable fit for most ears
  • Reliable Bluetooth 5.3 with multipoint

What doesn't

  • Lacks punch and drive in bass
  • Noise cancellation is only average for the price
  • Battery life is modest, especially with ANC on
  • Single microphone limits call quality in noisy environments

What Hi-Fi says the AZ40M2 sound spacious and come with a strong feature set and attractive design, making them competitive in their class. Their main weakness is a lack of punch and drive, which keeps them from standing out among the very best earbuds.
