You’ll find big, chunky oval buttons on the left cup that alter the volume and let you play/pause tracks, while a slider on the right cup switches the ANC (active noise cancellation) on and off. The buttons and switches on the cups don’t rattle or feel particularly cheap when pressing, either. These features may not appeal to those after a particularly slimline pair, but you can wear them all day without discomfort. The pad use thick foam and large cut-outs for your ears, and there’s a hefty inch of foam on the headband too. The plastics don’t creak significantly, while the fake leather used in the headband and pads is of decent quality. These are still headphones made and sold cheaply, but there are actually no elements that let the Taotronics TT-BH040 down badly. The bevelling of the aluminium’s edge, revealing the shiny metal underneath, is a particularly nice touch. The Taotronics TT-BH040 are mostly plastic but have a plate of aluminium over each cup, giving them a more upmarket look and feel than the rival Mixcder E7. I’ve had a number of real-world compliments about the appearance of these headphones, and Taotronics has made the right basic design choices.

While Taotronics don’t have the brand strength of these competitors, their ‘fake it to make it’ strategy works quite well. The Taotronics TT-BH040 are intended to look like contemporaries of headphones such as the Sony WH-1000XM3, Beats Studio3 and B&O Play H7.
