Late 2019 refresh/update to Taotronics Soundsurge 46

I posted this as a comment on Z’s YT video review of the Soundsurge 46, but given the age of the vid, I’m not sure how many people would notice it. There doesn’t appear a thread here about the Taotronics, hence my creating this one.

These apparently got a late 2019 refresh since Z reviewed them. There is now a champagne gold color version on Amazon that is recommended as a “newer version” of the black set. It only has 37 reviews compared to 246 reviews for the black, and the oldest review of the champagne color is dated November 4, 2019. From what I can tell from the listed specs, the improvements are the following:

  1. Noise-canceling mic version “cvc 8.0” rather than 6.0 of the previous version… not sure what this actually means.
  2. Bluetooth 5.0
  3. USB-C rather than micro.
