Is the LG Tone Free Fit worth $180.99?

Only if you need waterproof ANC buds and want them now. LG's Tone Free buds regularly sell for less on sale, so waiting can save you money.

Can I swim with them?

LG rates them IP67, which covers splashes and short immersion, but they are not designed for swimming laps. Use them for sweat, rain and washing off after a workout.

How is the noise canceling?

It cuts steady noise like gym fans and traffic but not voices or sudden clatter. It is weaker than the ANC on the AirPods Pro or Sony WF-1000XM5.

How long does the battery last?

Expect roughly 6 hours per charge with ANC on and closer to 10 with it off, plus extra charges from the case.

Do they work with iPhone?

Yes, over standard Bluetooth, but the LG Tone Free app and its extra settings are Android-only.

What comes in the box?

The earbuds, the charging case, a USB-C cable and extra ear tip sizes. A wall adapter is not included.

Our take on the LG Tone Free Fit

The LG Tone Free Fit is a true wireless earbud aimed at workouts, with active noise canceling, touch controls and a charging case. LG rates it IP67, so it survives sweat and a dunk, which is rare among ANC earbuds. It is a small, light bud with swappable ear tips and a case that doubles as a UV sanitizer on some LG models. The latest price is $180.99 at Newegg as of November 3; LG's Tone Free line has sold well below that on sale, so this is near the top of its recent range.
