N18 Neckband Bluetooth Earbuds Wireless Bluetooth 5 2 Headphones with Microphone Ultra-Lightweight Comfort IPX7 Waterproof Deep Bass Strong

I'm pretty picky about neckband earbuds. Many I've tried have had very heavy bands that were oddly long for how short the battery life is. I've had these Tonemac ones for months now and I admit I'm a bit rough on them - they are used absolutely daily for hours. I've even fallen asleep in them and accidentally popped the buds out of my ears in my sleep and the wire has held up fine. The neck piece is exceptionally light and comfortable, I get really great reception even if I leave my phone over 100 feet away (not something I've experienced with other brands), and charging time is dubiously fast despite the things lasting me from 8am to 8pm with no low battery warning. Sound quality is not bad at all, especially for the price. Controls are simple pause/resume and hold for skip forward/back. One of the few things I can see myself purchasing backups of, just in case I lose them. Read more

I've had these 2 months now. If you're looking for a Skullcandy Ink'd wireless headphones dupe. You've found it. Those were my go to for the last 15-20 years. If you're looking then you know it's discontinued and you can only find them for parts now. Boy do I have great news for you. Same sound quality as the ink'd though doesn't go as loud. Sound quality/bass and noise canceling and placement were my top priorities to mimic the ink'd. It's got all 4. I did get foam tips to get a good "seal" for noise canceling and that worked perfectly. The wires are a bit long but I used a tiny black rubber band to control the length on them. The buttons are on the right and honestly as a right hander (though ambidextrous) I prefer it. It charges fast, lasts for days and with easy Bluetooth hookup. It is a "C" charging port which is what everything should be these days. Were at that point in technology. They are very light weight. They don't hug your throat like the ends of the ink'd did for me when wearing a scarf. All in all I give these a huge yes to anyone who likes noise canceling and great bass in their headphones. I'm a commuter so noise canceling is a huge must same with no wires. Especially if you're looking for a substitute to the Ink'd wireless that's tried and true. Read more

I've been using these for a week. PROS: I bought this for the battery life and the usb-C charging. It turns on and bluetooth connects quickly. The ear rubber part that goes in your ear stays connected to the headphone really well. The "Power On" and "Connected" voice is a well spoken english. The sound quality is the just like others I have had, nothing special but pretty good. No complaints on call quality on either end. Loud background noise is not heard by the person on the other end of a phone call. The Bluetooth connected range is the same as other headphones I’ve had. NITPICKING: These headphones do not tell you how much battery life is left when it turns on nor does it display battery life in the top status bar on my up to date iPhone. The controls are on your right hand side. The 2 controller/battery compartments are 3 inches long. It feels a little cumbersome but it's a trade off for the long battery life. Occasionally the volume up and down rocker switch does not work. The On/Off switch is above the up/down volume rocker switch. Read more

I've been trying to find headphones to replace the Skullcandy Ink'd wireless headphones since they were discontinued. I used those for over a decade and I'm sad Skullcandy has discontinued them. I've tried a bunch of different headphones, but for a number of reasons I didn't like them. I've been using these TONEMAC N18 headphones for about 2 months now and they are a winner. I usualyl forget to write reviews but I'm so happy with these I want to, also in case anyone else is struggling to replace their Ink'd wireless. I'm going to do a TL;DR of pros and cons at the top with details below. Things I was looking for: TL;DR Pros: Neckband weight similar to Ink'd wireless, Cost is about the same, solid bass, controls are the same as ink'd wireless. Bonus pros: Super long battery life, USB-C charging. Can connect to two devices at a time. Cons: Like everyone said, cable length is long with no bands to adjust. Meckband is a little long (but I'm on the smaller side so these are probably perfect for someone bigger). Sometimes when I'm connected to two devices and I get a sound on the first one that connected, it doesn't switch to the second. Since I sometimes I Bluetooth turned on on up to four devices in a room at a time, it confused me at first. Easy to manage now that I know. Conclusion: I'm in love with these and so glad I found them. I look forward to many years with these headphones. ----------------------------------------------------- Neckband weight: I can't do the "true" wireless earbuds because 1) I'd lose them and 2) I'm allergic to nickel and have a reaction to them. So I need to have a neckband. Other headphones I've tried were either too light, so they slid off a lot, or they are pretty heavy (which I was kind of okay with if they worked well). These pretty much match the weight of the Ink'ed wireless. I will agree with other comments that the cables are a bit long and don't have that band that allows you to adjust the length. But honestly it's a small thing and can be fixed with a lightly tightened zip tie that is flush cut or something. I haven't done this yet. Cost: The Ink'd wireless were anywhere between $28 and $40. I had two pairs that I could switch on and off (mostly due to forgetting them or misplacing them). So every 3-5 years when an earbud died I'd purchase a new pair. At the time of this review I paid $26 for these. Bass: I don't need a lot of bass to be happy but I need a little, at least. Others I tried seemed to have zero or negative. Controls: I just need the basics. Volume up/down and one button for pause/play. You'd be surprised at a lack of controls. Also, one pair of headphones made you hold the plus/minus to change the volume. So it was impossible to adjust the volume slightly. Weird design choice. The tonemacs have the controls and behavior I want. Battery life: The advertised battery life is accurate on these. I've been superbly happy. I was fine with the 8 hours I was getting before but these are an improvement. Charging: Ideal but not needed was I wanted headphones with USB-C port for charging. It's getting more annoying to find micro-b cables. If you are thinking about buying these headphones, I seriously recommend them. Read more
