SonyWi-Xb400 Headphones Wireless Neck-Band Calls/Music USB, W128298864 (Neck-Band Calls/Music USB Type-C Bluetooth Black)

I’ve bought 3 pairs of these over the years (I use them nearly everyday) and they hold up well. The battery life is excellent and has plenty of bass and clean highs at this price point. The flaws with these are eventually the charging port won’t shut flush which isn’t a big deal honestly, one or possibly both of the rubber seal on the back of the buds eventually come off but don’t affect the sound or use at all. I’d still highly recommend them as they are very comfortable and harder to lose with the magnets that keep them safe around your neck.

I originally bought these 2 years ago at Best Buy and they lasted that whole time without any issues. I recently lost them and needed a replacement. Went to BestBuy and was told they no longer carry them so Amazon once again saves the day. Originally paid $49 at BestBuy but found them here for $35 so I hit that Buy Now button and had them here in a few days, no Prime shipping. I also have the Sony WI-C100s and there really is no comparison. The bass on the WI-XB400 hits just as hard as my last pair, noise cancellation is on point, battery life has been 10+ hours so far (says 15hrs on box), and I can once again listen to my audiobooks while I sleep. Also they are way easier to find in bed then than my ear pods when I wake up. If you can grab these, get them before they are discontinued.

So I've purchased these same earbuds in the past, and on one I broke the cord, and the other one I recently lost. I've purchased them twice since then, but return them each time. Once from Amazon and once from eBay. I returned them because I thought that they were a knockoff because the voice is different and it doesn't tell you what the percentage of the battery is. I thought I'd tried them again and I guess I just have to get used to this new voice and no battery notification. Other than that these are my favorite earbuds!

I've had these headphones before, the woman's voice is now in a Chinese accent and there's noticeable audio desync.

They have occasional connectivity issues (disconnecting and then reconnecting a couple of seconds later, which plays the voice saying "disconnected" and then "connected"). The plastic of the left earpiece after broke after a week or two of light use, plus being put in my bag. It doesn't affect the function at all, just aesthetics.I would have been fine with both of those, but I just don't think I am a big fan of necklace-type earbuds. If you only have one earbud in and move around or bend over, the other side will start falling down and have to be put back in place. For me, they also didn't stay in while running, even when I had both in. This might be because I prefer a smaller rubber earpiece, though. For both of those, the weight of the battery/interface makes them easy to get yanked down by gravity. As I mentioned before, I would've kept the earbuds despite the other problems if I did end up liking what I think is probably a reality of the necklace headphones. So, if the issues I mentioned don't bother you, I would recommend this product as "pretty good", though I would say it's a little expensive to be having the plastic break after a week. I would have given it 3.5 stars if that was an option, but I decided to round down since it wasn't.

I bought these as a second pair. I already have one pair of these exact same ear buds. They're my absolute favorite. Everything about these ear buds is identical except the voice. The voice is very different. If these are knock offs, they're the best ones ever.The sound is great and nearly identical to my old pair. I would buy these again. My fave feature is the magnetic ear buds so they don't get lost.

The voice is very different than my original pair. Not the typical pleasant Sony voice. You do not get an announcement of the battery percentage left when you power on. I experience disconnection and reconnection too much. The battery life is not very long at all compared to my original pair.

Possibly fake. Voice is unusual/not professional, minimum volume is still loud, and listing doesn’t have all caps for the product type. Sound quality is fine, battery fine.
