AMORNO Foldable Bluetooth Headphones Wireless Neckband Headset with Retractable Earbuds, Sports Sweatproof Noise Cancelling Stereo Earphones with Mic

Pairing these foldable Bluetooth neckband headphones to my phone was effortless. Just open the case, hold the power button, and they appeared instantly in my Bluetooth menu. The retractable earbuds extend smoothly to my preferred length and retract cleanly without tangling. I’ve worn them on back-to-back calls and during workouts with no dropouts or signal hiccups; the noise cancelling keeps voices clear even in noisy environments. Others have noted the rubber tips can slip when retracting, but I haven’t had that issue, and the memory-foam buds stay snug without pinching.The battery life is solid; around ten hours of music playback... and charging via the included USB-C cable takes just a couple of hours. The lightweight neckband sits comfortably without digging in, and the sweat-proof finish handled a few gym sessions without any slippage. The mini cooling fan I have for my server collection reminded me of how cooling these stay; even after long wear there’s no heat buildup around the ears. Foldable for travel and built to handle daily use, these headphones blend practical features and reliable performance at a budget-friendly price.

The AMORNO Foldable Bluetooth Headphones are a pretty good set of wireless headphones in a sea of audio wearables. They have an acceptable shape that is easy to wear and are light weight, you'll barely notice that you have them hanging around your neck, even when you shift your shoulders or neck. Comes with extra earbud tips for you to find a comfortable size in each ear. The included storage pouch is made of decent quality material and will protect the headset in its folded form for storage and is easy enough to pocket or hang off of your belt loops with the included clip. You also get a 1yr warranty card to register with your headset within 14 days.The sound quality is pretty good for what you get at its price. You get a decent amount of bass that wont drown out the mids or highs, and the overall audio experience is pleasant enough for all your music and voice needs. Sound separation is good and isn't muddy. The stock sound is fine enough to be able to have the equalizer set flat, so you don't have to worry about turning frequencies down or up like certain other headsets, if messing with equalizer settings isn't your thing or your device doesn't have the option. Clear sound for pretty much any music genre and voice audio, as well as calls.Sound Isolation is pretty decent, the headset can mostly block out environmental sounds around you without having to excessively turn the volume up to blast out your ears. You can peacefully do lawn care while listening to your own tunes without worrying about getting a headache from assaulting your ears with high volume to beat the noise.Battery life is pretty great, have gotten over 10hrs straight with listening to music at moderate volume, so this headset will get you through the day and even longer with off and on use. Charge time is reasonable with all the play time that you get and may be reduced an amount as the play time is so long the headset may still have a decent amount of battery charge left in it.The ratcheting function for the earbud retraction feature is crisp with each click that signifies its locking position. The push button to retract the earbud works well enough to pull in the cable on its own or while the earbud is being lead back to the base by hand. Having a ratcheting retraction mechanism is a nice and desirable function to have on this style of headset, it allows you to set the cabling as needed without having too much extra sticking out which gives it a slightly neater appearance. Being able to store the cable inside of the headset is also another benefit compared to other neck hanging style headsets that haphazardly have you run the earbud cables back and forth over itself and use magnets that aren't so great at holding the earbud to the base without everything flopping around when not in use.Having a slider switch for power is a plus as you can actually see if the device should be on and don't have to hold down a button for so long to get it to turn on, off, or go into pairing mode. the volume/track buttons are intuitive enough, just press once in either direction to change track or hold the button down to change volume levels. The call button is easy to find with being separate from the other buttons and having a concave shape to distinguish it. The vibration function is attention grabbing, so that you don't even have to have the earbuds in your ears to be alerted to a call and can easily answer the call in a simple motion.I can recommend the AMORNO Foldable Bluetooth Headphones for your audio and sound isolation needs.

Notice: We received these at a substantial discount. That does not impact our review in any way.These are some interesting earphones, with several pros and cons. Right off the bat, you'll notice they are surprisingly heavy, but in a "way too much plastic" sort of way. The earbuds are held into framework via spring loaded, retractable wires that you must pull to release enough length for the buds to reach your ears.Sound quality is adequate, but not amazing. I used it with a Kindle Paperwhite to listen to audio books. When it worked, the sound was fine, but I had to turn the kindle off and back on to get the headphones to pair each time. That said, that problem is with the kindle itself, not the headphones, as I was able to successfully pair them with my smartphone (a OnePlus 6t), an iPhone SE, and a Playstation 4, where they performed admirably and without connectivity problems each time I wanted to use them.The microphone seems reasonably robust, as numerous callers said they could hear me loud and clear each time. Noise cancellation seemed to work well on normal ambient sounds, but as with most noise cancellation, it's useless on larger, louder sounds, so you won't want to wear these to chat while walking down the street.I do wish that the buttons for controlling the headphones were more consistent. In some apps, they controlled volume, but in others they skipped tracks. This is pretty jarring when you're used to one behavior, yet then another occurs. This may be the fault of the apps, however.Battery life is around 6ish hours, which I estimate by the fact that I was able to use them for audiobook listening on my morning and evening commutes for about 3 days before needing to charge them.They feel sturdy enough that they'll last awhile, provided you aren't abusive to them. They ship with a really nice hard case and a charge cable (Micro USB). I really like the case. It's about the size of an eyeglasses case, and the headphones easily fold down to fit inside them.If you want something you can tuck safely into a purse or backpack, and you don't mind folding and putting your headset into its own case, you'll enjoy these. The only exception I see is if you want something tiny and light, as these are much heavier than Airpods or the many good similar buds. I can definitely recommend these at their $30 price. Shipping was fast and customer service was friendly when I had questions.

My dad (mid 60s) enjoys this headset. It's a replacement for his (expensive gift last year) LG flex that my child broke. He wanted a more affordable one in case my kids get to it again. To his pleasant surprise, the sound quality is (just as) good & he likes the folding option. He uses it mostly for music & hearing the news while working in the backyard or around the house. He doesn't take it outside, so cannot speak on how well it performs in busy/loud environments. His backyard is relatively quiet; in a relaxing peaceful neighborhood.
