I am using Bose Soundwear for listening to TV and music, really does a good job of bringing right amount of base and 360 sound like a home theatre, but for taking calls with work from home I am using the Sony NB 10, the in built mute button is of great help, and type-c charging, but it’s low on base but great for calls
Not really impressed. Your video is very polished but all you did was put together a bunch of information from the descriptions of the products. Everything in this video is things that I am already known and already read. He said nothing about pricing or if there any other neck band headphones out there that had a mute function, which ones even had multi device pairing. It was just a very quick simple overview, and, just also a sub said nothing about bass nothing about car quality I just not impressed.
DESIGN, CONVENIENCE & COMFORT ABOVE EVERYTHING ELSE Using the NS7 for 3 months now. The primary reasons why you will buy this product: You do not want to use over ear headphones as they become heavier and sweatier after prolonged use. You do not want to use in ear - ear buds as they cause ear pain & irritation after prolonged use. Also ear buds fitment is a big issue with many people. You want to use the speakers mainly indoors and do not need active noise cancellation as your usage is only or music, movies or games. So if you are someone like me who wants a bluetooth speaker with acceptable sound quality which could be used easily, comfortably and something that rests on your shoulders around your neck and can be used for longer period of time without giving you any pain to your ears, no sweat, or irritation then this product is best for you. I also possess the Sennheiser Momentum 2 & Jabra 85t - but I will not compare their sound quality with this one. Those products are in a different league and far more superior in bass reproduction and sound quality than the NS7. You can use these speakers for connecting to your iPhone/iPad/Mac mini/Macbook, android tablet/phone very easily. The 360 surround sound is not available then as it’s only limited if you use this speaker with a compatible Sony Bravia TV. When I knew it won’t offer me 360 surround spatial sound in normal Bluetooth connections and I don’t have a Bravia TV why did I spend so much money then? Well. The answer is very clear to me. I purely bought it for Sony’s design, the convenience it offers and the overall comfort of use. It is an expensive buy and the cost does not justify the quality of sound. Many other bluetooth speakers will offer you superior bass & sound quality and are available at half the price. NS7 is either pure indulgence or a thoughtful purchase if comfort and convenience is paramount to you. If sound quality is paramount don’t even think about the NS7 unless you have a Bravia TV to extract its full potential. Pros: Resembles a travel pillow Sony’s ergonomic design & build quality Fits securely around your neck Acceptable audio quality Multipoint connection - pair 2 devices at once Decent battery life 10 minute of charge gives you upto an hour of extra play time Its fabric finish and silicon neckband are soft & easy to clean USB C charging port Lightweight & comfortable to use Good & easy hands-free calling experience with optimal microphones placement IPX4 - Splash-proof Wireless transmitter - Optical cable & USB cable is provided in box Due to open ear style - you are still being aware of your surroundings. Cons: Very expensive It’s bulky & could feel uncomfortable sometimes Compatibility issues Mediocre bass response Sony app is required to set up Best features only available if paired with Bravia XR TV’s Not fully waterproof Upward facing speakers are highly localized - if you move your head to left or right you do lose sound. My verdict: An unconventional niche product that you can use with any Bluetooth source, but pairing it with a Sony Bravia XR-series TV only enables the unique surround-sound experience. For me a decent audio is an acceptable trade-off for comfort. A personal speaker solution you wear around your shoulders. It fulfils my requirements exactly!
