LG Tone Free Fit (TF8): True Wireless Earphones

LG’s Tone Free Fit earbuds, also known as the TF8 or TF8Q, join the Tone Free T90 ($229) as the latest entries in the company’s noise-cancelling true wireless earphone lineup. They deliver strong audio, are surprisingly customizable via a companion app, and offer decent active noise cancellation (ANC). Notably, they eschew all the gimmicky spatial-audio features of the pricier T90 in favor of a fully waterproof design, which is easily worth the trade-off in our book. Ultimately, the $199.99 Jabra Elite 7 Pro earphones remain our Editors’ Choice winner in the high-end exercise-friendly segment, with more effective noise cancellation, slightly better mics, and a more pleasing default sound. The TF8 in-ears are a strong alternative, however, with better dust protection, a more granular app experience, and a charging case that converts wired audio to Bluetooth.

WATERPROOF AND EASY TO CONTROL

Available in black with green accents, the TF8 earpieces are chunky but lightweight. Silicone ear hooks ensure a secure, comfortable fit even during vigorous exercise. The earbuds ship with three pairs of “medical grade silicone” eartips in small, medium, and large sizes, as well as three sizes of removable ear hooks.

Internally, 6mm dynamic drivers deliver the audio. The earphones are compatible with Bluetooth 5.3, plus support the AAC and SBC codecs, but not AptX. That last omission makes these a tougher recommendation for Android users.
