What if I tell you that you have to make a choice between two techno-gadgets that are simultaneously stylish as well as optimum in terms of performance and utility. Nahi samjhe? Arey bhai, What I mean to ask are Earbuds Better Than Neckbands.
When it comes to utility v/s stylish appeal, we always tend to get frazzled a bit because of the multitude of varieties available in the market for our immersive as well as a 360-degree audio experience. However, that said, we also have to first understand the exact purpose, the utility offered, the price factor and specifications and most importantly the performance offered by each before delving into understanding whether earbuds are better than neck bands? Worry not, coz we at Booxoul have come with the full specifications for you to mull and choose the correct device to suit your needs, both professional as well as personal.
These are earphones that have metal or plastic clips that rest around your neck whilst using Bluetooth connectivity. Thus, there are no wires involved between the neckband and the smartphone.
Nowadays, they come with magnets which makes the earplugs in them stick together viably around your neck while not in use.
They also are referred to as “truly wireless Earbuds”. That is because they are absolutely wire-free and there is no wiring involved between them and the device. Hence, both the earbuds are completely separated and independent of each other. Thus, the ergonomics of their design offers you freedom from tangled, messy wires.
There are no cells in neckbands but a battery instead which supplies power. Generally, a battery of 150-200 mAh is contained in these which is chargeable through a USB or a type C cable.
When it comes to earbuds they have small cells (around 40 mAh each) and also come with a charging case that has a battery of up to 2500 mAh. They can charge themselves from this charging case after you keep them inside it.
There are several factors you need to keep in mind while taking your choice of pick between the two.
Simple. Whilst neckbands definitely offer a better quality of sound and are more pocket friendly they also are practical as there is no chance of them falling and you losing them even when you do activities like running, they are not exactly 100 % wireless and need constant charging.
On the other hand, Earbuds are lighter, truly wireless and offer a greater battery life. However, apart from being more expensive they also have the shortcoming of having a smaller driver size and you definitely have to be careful to not lose them because of their compact design.
However, there can be no denying the fact that they also give you a good, immersive kind of a quality experience when it comes to sound and is more comfortable.
Although, I want to point out one thing here earbuds, with the recent designs being sweatproof, as well as water resistance, offer a better choice from the point of view of being sports-friendly too. Though Neckbands are also waterproof still there is this little discomfort of wires hanging from your neck as you perform exercises.
In summation, thus I would say a Neckband is good because of its excellent sound quality as well pricing whereas wireless earbuds are better on the grounds of portability, battery and design. However, that said, as far as sound quality, as well as pricing, are concerned they may vary for each person according to the vitality one requires.
So, these were some key pointers for you to mull over whilst answering the important question:
So, after using both, especially having used different varieties of Earbuds such as BoAt, OnePlus, Blaupunkt, Boult I have come to the conclusion that nevertheless, Neckbands are way better as I have used the same of boAt, JBL, RedMi as well as Sony and want to add that the best vitality, value for money as well as comfort is something you get via Neckbands better than Earbuds. So here is our answer.
