Performs well, but has subpar physical qualities.
Bottom line: If you want something of high quality, these are not for you. But if you're just looking for a stylish, comfortable wireless headset to wear at the gym or throughout the day, these will meet your needs.Review: First let me tell you that I did a LOT of research before purchasing this product. I spent several days reading reviews and comparing the many different options for a bluetooth neckband headset. I searched well beyond Amazon as well--including product review websites/blogs, youtube videos, and even department stores/audio stores/entertainment stores, etc. To be quite honest, none of the headsets I researched were able to meet my standards (albeit my standards may be pretty high), but I decided on this pair over all the others---so I supposed that in itself says something.I received my product one day after I purchased it (thanks to Amazon Prime one day free shipping), and I immediately did a thorough inspection so I could give as detailed and accurate review as possible. Here are my findings.Pros:*Connects to bluetooth with no hassle, and stays connected = 10/10*Excellent range = 9.5/10 I live in a loft apartment, and I am able to walk around the entire apartment without losing connection. I got a max range of 47 feet.Impressive bass = 8.5/10 It was the first thing I noticed when I turned on my music. However, the music quality becomes distorted when listening at higher volumes.*Good sound quality = 8/10 Music is clear, though I wouldn't call it crisp.*Sits comfortably on neck= 8/10 Follows the natural curve of your body. Not too heavy or bulky, but you can feel that the front part is heavier.*Earbuds easily extend and retract = 8/10 It took a few tries to get them to move smoothly. But now I have no problems with them.*Earbuds stay in place during activity = 8/10 They fit snuggly in my ears, and it comes with different size ear tips so you can pick what is most comfortable for you. I will note that the earbuds may slip out when coated in wet earwax (though this may just be me...I've had that problem with every pair of headphones I've ever owned.)Cons:*Mediocre Noise cancelation = 6/10 Could certainly be better. I tested it by turning on my tv to a normal volume, and I was still able to hear talking and sound from the tv while my music was playing fairly loudly. It did, however, muffle the sound a bit.*Questionable quality of plastic material = I'm giving it a 7/10 for now, but I will update in a few months. My initial impression is that it's pretty cheaply made, though not awful. One of the first things I noticed when I took it out of the box was that the seams are not tightly sealed (see pictures). I am worried about them coming apart or sweat/dirt/dust getting in.*One of the earbuds is temperamental = At first, the left earbud wouldn't pull out the whole way. It caused the wire to not be long enough to comfortably reach my ear, and it lifted the headset up off my neck (see pictures below). After playing with it a bit, I finally got it to come out the whole way. I would also note that it appears the right earbud produces slightly louder sound than the left, but barely enough to be noticed.*Earbuds slide out when coated in earwax.*Buttons could be better = 7/10 You have to hold in the buttons for a long time to get the headset to turn on or to change the song. This isn't a huge downfall, but it does become annoying and inconvenient when you are working out or riding a bike and just want to be able to change the song quickly. It would be better if there were separate buttons for volume and changing the song.*Sweat collects under the plastic part that hangs on your chest, and it starts to feel sticky and slightly uncomfortable.*Vibration when receiving a phone call is intense and may startle you.*Does not tell you battery level when you turn it on.I am not yet able to speak on the battery life, because I just received them today and they were charged when I got them. I will update this review once I've had a few opportunities to test out the battery life.My overall impression is that these headphones are not worth $25 (more like $10 or $15), but they do perform fairly well. The caveats mainly pertain to the physical qualities of the headset, not the performance.

These wireless Bluetooth headphones are good for everyday use
These wireless Bluetooth headphones are good for everyday use! Came very professionally packaged with a microUSB cord to charge the device with and two sets of extra silicone earbuds of varying sizes. Only thing I had trouble with waa trying to change out the standard earbuds for the size small earbuds. The openings on the small earbuds are too small to attach properly.Setting up the device is very easy. I was able to quickly sync my phone to device and immediately begin playing music. The bass is a little warbled but if I turn the volume to low-med the sound quality is decent.The retractable earbuds is my favorite feature. No more tangling lines or pulling the earbuds out of my ears accidentally. I like the style a lot - it's sleek and very well suited for my workplace environment

Very chic design, my girlfriend loves it!
I have a lot of bluetooth headsets that I use mainly for work and workouts.My girlfriend noticed me wearing some at the gym one day, and also wanted something similar. The only problem is that most of the ones on sale are usually catered towards men or active lifestyles.My girlfriend is a potato, as she calls herself, lol. She prefers to be at home and working on her crafts. Her favorite color is pink, and she likes frilly things.So when she told me she wanted a pair, I had no choice but to look for the most feminine, and cutest one.Luckily I found these and was able to surprise her. She loves it, and especially the band that goes on the nape of her neck. Most of mine are just cords, and they tend to stick to my sweaty neck. With these however, it's stylish and not clingy.The sound quality is about what I expected coming from these headsets. Not bad, and not great. It's perfectly fine for what it is though.I would purchase another for any female acquaintance of mine, especially since rose gold looks very luxurious.

Pleasantly surprised!
I am pleasantly surprised by the quality of these Bluetooth ear sets. The setup was very easy, I was able to connect and start using the product without even reading the instructions. Many times I've tried setting up Bluetooth products and have had to refer to the manual to figure out how to work them. This was not the case here, everything just made sense. The sound quality is almost perfect. Even in a noisy car I can hear my conversation very well, and the person I am talking to can hear me as well. I really like that I can wear it around my neck when it's not in use, I've never been one who like to wear my earpiece in my ear all day long. It's so very convenient to put the earbud in when I'm getting a call or need to make a call. The retractable wire is the perfect length, and oh so easy to use. I am considering getting an extra pair in case I ever lose this one

Does not go the distance.
Customer service is great, however.Not in love with these headphones, and I am slightly disappointed. The controls are different than the ones (different brand) I was used to, but I was expecting that. However, as it is a newer Bluetooth than my other brand earphones, I thought it would have at least the same distance as they did. Nope. I can not walk out of the room without losing signal/connection. This makes it extremely annoying, as I have to take my phone with me if I might travel more than 5 feet from it. I could walk across the house with my other earphones and never get more than a robot voice. I had to walk out of the house with my other ones before I would lose connection.The battery does not seem to last 12 hours, either. I don't talk for 12 hours straight, but these headphones need to be charged after a couple hours of talk and a few hours idle. I honestly wish I could still return them.
