Neckband style earphones have fallen out of favour since the introduction of TWS earphones, but there are still many in the market that prefer this style. This is especially true for those living an active lifestyle since TWS may come loose and fall out of people’s ears when exercising. Neckband-style earphones also usually have better microphones since they are closer to the user’s mouth. So, if you’re someone who is constantly on calls for meetings, neckband-style earphones may actually be the superior choice compared to TWS earphones. Moreover, many of these earphones also come equipped with most of the features present on TWS such as ANC, voice assistant support, onboard controls, and more. We have tested our fair share of neckband-style earphones at the Digit Test Labs, and the best one, by far, is the Sony WI-1000XM2. Equipped with fantastic Active Noise Cancellation, dual microphones, solid sound, and more. Other options you could consider include the Soundcore Anker Life U2, Sennheiser Professional Audio IE 100 Pro, Realme Buds Wireless 2S, and JBL Live 100BT.
