> 24 hourThese are extremely comfortable wireless headphones. Great for use at the gym, work outs, running, and Rope Jumping, very strong seal makes these very good noise insulating/canceling. Volume max 60% is more than sufficient, anything higher is very loud for me but Great for those who may have slight or minor hearing difficulties. Battery holds as advertised. Instructions in the manual state if used with volume at 100% than battery good on a single charge up to 8 years of play time. Used it for 8 hours straight at 60% volume and battery was still showing 30-40% left. The package comes with 2 smaller pair of ear plugs for those with smaller ear channels, again, seal is great and best that I have experienced so far, able to jump rope for 1 hour and these will stay in place. The only disadvantage for me. When connecting these headphones, it is extremely difficult to tell if they are ON or OFF, single beep or double beep but would have been helpful with some type of voice commands. Once switched off, battery for some reason just in few days gets completely drained. Would have been helpful to have some kind of charging indication with led changing color when fully charged, tiny little LED a little difficult to see. Always need to check after removing from charging if they are trying to connect or not, once heard these beeping trying to connect to a phone upon removing from charging port, not good if you plan to use them later expecting that they will be fully charged in which case may be lucky with 20-30% battery life left. Unless battery does not hold charge well. Other than that, very good headphone, practical and easy to use. Also, compatible with fast charging adapters.

> 24 hourI have never EVER been able to use earbuds, for some reason or another. Wireless ones, one always falls out and gets lost forever. Wired ones are just never comfortable or the wire gets in the way of me doing something else. These are the perfect compromise to that. And theyre comfortable. The sound on them isnt BOSE quality or AirPod quality, but its WAY better than a cheap pair of earbuds. Its probably Anker quality. The price point might be a little high for what they are, but I dont know, Im happy with them because they are perfect for the needs I have of them. I would definitely purchase these again. I do like that they have their own controls on the neck piece, but I dont use them enough to really memorize those yet.

> 24 hourEl color verde es una hermosura. Son bastante comodos y no fastidian en las orejas aun si los llevas puesto por varias horas. Buen sonido y un nivel muy decente de bajos. Pase de unos skyllcandy a estos HTC y estos ultimos son realmente superiores.

> 24 hourSave your time and money, these are the worse headphones Ive ever had. The first pair quit working on the left side after a couple hours. The second wouldnt stay connected, nobody could hear your clearly, and sound is really tinny. I thought I would try a name brand headset for a change the off brands are better for half the cost. Its to bad they dont let you go below 1 star.

> 24 hourI dont Dislike these; but Im surprised at how barebones they are especially being manufactured in 2022. First off, as an HTC fan (I owned a lot of their smart phones and I was a proud owner of the HTC Vive VR headset) I was happy to see a product by them on the market. I hadnt seen too much from them recently so I was eager to try this out. I do like the build quality and the presentation. Its simple and elegant so I appreciated the unboxing experience. Looks very clean. But I do have to say that I was surprised to see some of the issues here. - First off the sound was very hollow right out of the gate. I connected this to my android phone and the music initially sounded like it was coming out of the phone call. I later realized that the issue was due to the fact that Id hit the voice assistant button. when you hit that you get your voice assistant but that also changes the audio to phone audio instead of the Stereo audio youre use to. If you dont stop and start the music, it stays that way. (I suspect this is a bug). - Also Im surprised that this didnt come with any kind of app as a device released in 2022. Not necessarily a huge issue, just a bit surprising. All in all this is a nice headset if not a bit barebones. As long as youre aware of that I think these are pretty decent.

> 24 hourIt has some good bass, but there is a high pitched background noise that an other review also mentions. I cant believe it has not been fixed if it is a known problem. The large earpieces are dangling when not in use, which is a little too much for me.

> 24 hourI do not know if I have odd sized ears (they appear normal) but earbuds fall out way too often for me and they just do not work for the gym. The HTC neckband headphones are a much better solution for me. They tend to stay in better than some of the buds and if they do slip out, Im not searching under the gym equipment for the runaway earbud. The sound quality of the HTC headphones was very good, and the battery life was excellent. In particular I was pleased to see that HTC used a USB-C connection for charging, so over the micro-USB connections on devices.

> 24 hourI really have a hard time keeping ear buds in my ears. This design allows me to wear the buds without any fear of losing one. I can listen to music with them stuck together (magnets) and not worry about them slipping off. When I answer a call and separate the buds the music automatically stops. Great design!. I can wear these while fishing and foraging without fear of losing them or damaging from water/sweat. Sound is good. Worth the $ for sure.

Searching for the best
> 24 hourI ordered the HTC 2023 New Neckband Headphones primarily for when working out in the yard or working out. When I tried them on I listened to several type of music; Classical, Rock, Punk, Heavy Metal, Electronic, Hip Hop etc. as well as for phone calls. Pros: - Sound quality was good for all types of music. - Flexible neck band, it doesnt seem to shift around on my neck as much as the headphone with rigid neck bands. - Auto pause when the ear pieces are magnetically connected (when not in your ears). - Controls are easy to use and similar to most of the headphones I have used, so were easy to learn. - Bluetooth paired almost instantly when I first turned them on. - Works well with phone. Cons: - They dont have active noise cancelling, but that is not one of the listed features, just something I would like to have. Overall this is a good neckband headphone that I recommend.

> 24 hourWould have been 5 stars but was missing the extra buds that it was supposed to have. Disappointed and came almost fully charged but it came with only the large buds which are way to big and no small set was was in my package
