IT'S NO SECRET that our favourite earphones of 2022 were the LG Tone Free FP9. This year, our attention has shifted to a new premium, flagship audio device from the brand, the LG Tone Free T90. Featuring the same build quality and comfort with zero pressure build up on the ear canal over time, the new T90 earphones are everything we've come to expect from LG.

They weigh in at 5.3 grams; the comfort and fit with IPX4 rating makes it the ideal go-to companion for everyday activities. The same build quality also follows through on the smooth, matte, pebble-shaped clam shell case with a spring-loaded lid. The T90's upgraded UVnano, which reduces bacteria by up to 99.9%, covers a wider area beyond the mesh reaching the gel silicone earbuds.

Furthermore, the LG Tone Free T90 can also sanitise your earbuds without being connected as long as it retains a minimum of 40% charge.

The T90 offers nine hours of continuous use and 29 hours in total. With features like Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) and Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) turned on, usage length dropped to seven hours and 20 minutes; using Qualcomm aptX adaptive on Android with ANC turned on, one gets about four and a half hours of use which puts the T90 ahead of some of its better competitors. The buds can be quick-charged for five minutes to get an hour of use out of them. These noise-cancelling true wireless earphones enter a crowded market while delivering robust audio and a few cool Dolby spatial audio features.
