Soundcore by Anker Life U2i Wireless Neckband Headphones, 10mm Drivers with BassUp Technology, 24H Playtime, AI-Enhanced Calls, Foldable and Lightweight, IPX5 Water-Resistant, Secure Fit, Bluetooth 5

These are a great little pair of headphones. I've bought them 4 times. I've HAD to buy them 4 times. I got them for gym/walking; the theory being that if they slip out, I wouldn't lose them like I feel I'd lose earbuds. For this they work great, I even use them at home to listen to youtube and game too now. The design -- a necklace with earbuds hanging off it -- is a neat little trick. Out of the 3 I've had to replace, 2 of them had the left earbud start to fail, getting noticeably quieter than the right. I suspect I instinctively pull to the left when separating them from each other (they're magnetic), which puts stress on the left bud, which weakens the wire or connection eventually. This is probably my fault, not Anker's, I'm sure in the manual it says not to do that. The other 1 time I've replace it was the power button just not working. That was soon enough after buying that I got a swap from Amazon. Anyway they're comfortable, the audio is good, if they fall they don't go anywhere. The microphone is fine, no complaints with my calls on it. Bluetooth connectivity is good, it reaches throughout the house. It charges very quickly (~1 hour is usually enough) and it lasts more or less a day's worth of sitting and working while listening to tunes. For $20 they're a no brainer, the second I noticed the left ear was getting quiet I ordered another one immediately. I probably should order a spare, too.

I’ve had a few sets of this brand over the years. I prefer the wired style simply because of work and activity levels but I’m very hard on them. When they give out it’s generally because I’ve damaged one side of the earbuds from very hard use. They’re light and comfortable with a very good sound and especially a good call quality. Definitely worth the price.

Easy to connect via Bluetooth & a easy to use design, i love that I don't have to keep something in my ear but is ready right there for me when im ready to reconnect, not off getting lost like most headsets today. They are comfortable on neck, I've forgotten I'm wearing them a few times. I also like a change they have made with this model that if nothing is playing it will partially disconnect and play ringtone and stuff over phone then when you start music or shows it will reconnect (just takes about 3 secs). i can normally run about 2 shifts on a charge but it fastly charges so even if I forget to charge and plug it in on the drive to work about 20-30 min it's plenty to get be through my shift and beyond. comes with different size rubbers and sound is perfect and clear even with my slight hearing lose. The design keeps headset at the ready for any time use ear peice cord is just right length its not in the way and magnetic so they stick together out of way when not in use but do stick to anything metal. can use my phone charger to charge so no special cords. these are my go to headsets and bonus so not overpriced which is always a win!

I'm pretty utilitarian when it comes to electronics, and to that end these earbuds are perfect. They are cheap, reliable, have a long battery life, and are hard to lose (since they fit around your neck). They also consistently pair with my Windows computer without any fuss. A couple of minor drawbacks: they tend to slip off my shoulders when running or during high intensity workouts. I use a safety pin to fasten them to my shirt to prevent this. Also, the sound quality is only OK. It's fine for the price point, but audiophiles should look elsewhere for a richer audio experience. Overall, I really like these earbuds and I've already purchased four pairs.

Update 4/20/24: I didn't think these could get worse but they did. The description claims BT 5 however when I tried pairing with my laptop while still connected to my phone I couldn't. Never had a problem doing that and just using the device I needed with the Soundcore Life U2 headphones. Now I can't even connect with these pieces of dung. Anker, you let me down. For years I've been telling people they can't go wrong with Ankor products (e.g. loose Micro USB after seizure & dropping yet STILL it reliably charged AND you guys reached out to me to replace it with my 4 star rating.) Everyone in my family has either a battery, cables or headphones from you guys now. If this is what's being put out now then sadly I can't get behind your products anymore. Even my wife, who has argued with me over not being able to see the difference between 1080 and 4K, said her pair sounded bad and has poor battery life and keeps trying to convince me to get something else. Original: I had purchased the older Soundcore Life U2 earbuds about 4 times (for myself, plus more for others) because the battery, sound and comfort were all top notch. I have used the awesome warranty on all because either the right earbud quit working or more commonly the power button broke. I still rated the Life U2 at 5-stars because of the warranty and they actually were pretty dang good. With almost constant use throughout the day I only needed to charge them about once every 3 days. During the last warranty exchange I was told the Life U2 was no longer being made however they'd send me the current U2i. The earbuds on the Life U2i don't fit my ears using the same size (biggest) silicone tips and fall out of both ears when doing basic life things. The battery needs charged every day now and they sound kind of muddy (even with bass boost off). My wife has the same problems with hers up to this point. MINE also randomly disconnect from my phone some days. My wife hasn't had *this* problem with her set. I added the sport thing (not included, from old Soundcore Life U2 earbuds) behind the silicone tip and that has helped a little. I probably have to fix them only half as much now. Running or rough ground they will fall out. I used to be able to play for a couple more hours when the first low battery message played. Now I don't get an hour. If these were the first Ankor earbuds I had purchased rather than first of many they would have also been the last. Knowing how the power button kept breaking I believe they may be fixed with this new design of it being smaller. Anker Soundcore Life had a really good run, unfortunately now it's time to find something else. I'm already screwing around with these.
