I think the other reviews here do a good job of painting a picture of what to expect if you're new to neck speakers. What I'd like to do is write a review for those dozens of us who are coming from the Bose Soundwear, since I could not find many direct comparisons out there between the two. I've used the Bose Soundwear neckband speaker every days for hours each day for the last 4 years - I absolutely love the thing. When it started running into startup issues a few months ago (which I've since gotten fixed by replacing the battery and re-installing the firmware), I decided to see what else has come out since 2019. I tried the Monster Boomerang, but it was awful in comparison. Poor detail, sounds muffled, and only sounds good when you EQ the hell out of it. It's also shaped in a way that makes it less comfortable. I'm a somewhat skinny 5'6" Filipino male, so my shoulders aren't strangely shaped or anything. Enter the Sony SRS-NS7: This thing is AMAZING. It's such a worthy successor to the Bose Soundwear. ----- Gonna get the cons out of the way first. There's quite a few but in actuality, they're minor to me and are far outweighed by the pros: -Can't configure the SRS-NS7 to shut off if there hasn't been any playback through the speakers after X amount of minutes. So unless you can always remember to turn it off after a few minutes, your battery will drain a lot faster than with the Soundwear if your usage is on and off through the day and night. -It lacks bass, though boosting the bass (63 Hz) by +6 dB through the Sony Headphones app gives it the solid (albeit boomy) punch it needs. -If you DO boost the bass, you can feel it vibrate on your neck at higher volumes. I personally LOVE this, and it's relatively subtle - that is, it's nowhere near the levels the Boomerang can vibrate at if you do an extreme V-shaped EQ on that. -Can't connect simultaneously to two different devices, unlike the Soundwear. I carry a phone for work so not being able to answer calls from either phone by just powering on the Soundwear (or pressing the play/action button if already connected) is a bummer. -Can't turn off the voice alerts. -It looks bulkier and more overstated compared to the Soundwear. ----- The pros, tho... THE PROS, THO: -Overall sound quality is THE BEST I've heard from a wearable neckband speaker. The gap between this and the Soundwear is nearly as large as the gap between the Soundwear and the Boomerang and other cheapo sub-$50 neck speakers. And once you've dialed in your EQ settings... truly no comparison. -More detailed and neutral-sounding than the Soundwear. When I'm on the go, I almost exclusively use the Soundwear (well, now the SRS-NS7). Using the NS7, I'm hearing plenty of little details in songs I've listened to for years that I've never noticed while using the Soundwear. Since I have the luxury of being able to swap between the two as I listen, it's not that the Bose can't reproduce those details. Rather, it's way the Soundwear is EQ'd and designed to produce its soundstage. The Soundwear is very bright, almost to the point it can be harsh but not exactly reaching that point. That said, it's to the point that little details can get overpowered and go unnoticed if it's not within the frequency bands favors by the Soundwear. In comparison, the NS7 is far more neutral in how it's EQ'd, so details have further room to shine. Combine it with the to the better soundstaging, and you are left with a sound system that's enjoyable and non-fatiguing. -Sounds less noticeable to bystanders compared to the Soundwear, especially in noisier environments. I reckon it's due to how much tamer the high-end is on the NS7 compared to the Soundwear; with the Soundwear, you can hear the high-end from a farther distance and through much louder background noise. -Speaking of soundstage: it's most definitely fuller and immersive. Best way to describe the sound is that it's truly more "dome-like" in its soundstage compared to the Soundwear, which sounds more narrow and directional, pointed into your ears (but still good overall). The SRS-NS7 takes it to a level I could only have dreamed of, filling in the parts of the soundstage that the Bose simply cannot fill. -No weird "phasing" sound effect the Soundwear has; really does just sound like being able to have portable speakers in front of you while maintaining a natural-sounding soundstage. -System-wide EQ via the Sony Headphones app. You get a 5-band EQ with controls for 63 Hz, 250 Hz, 1k Hz, 4k Hz, and 16k Hz. You also get different presets; my personal favorite preset is the Speech one for podcasts, though in all other cases I keep everything flat, and boost 63 Hz by +4. The Bose doesn't have anything like this through its Connect app, which is a shame. ------------------------------------------------------------ Tl;dr: If you're coming from the Bose Soundwear, you will love love LOVE how this thing sounds. Get this. Hell, get two of them. Even at $300 each, it'd be worth it. At $250 or less? An absolute no-brainer of a steal. If this is your first neck speaker, chances are you won't be wowed, but will be like "hmm... wow, this sounds like speakers strapped to my neck and pointed into my ears. And I can hear everything around me. Neato!" And if that appeals to you, then I recommend it! Though, only if it drops to $250 or below. $300 is kinda steep considering how competitive the portable sound market is these days. Either way, this is such a solid device and I'd be extremely disappointed if Sony pulled a Bose and discontinued it. I love this thing!!

I started a new job a few months back. I was given the bad news that headphones weren't allowed, but personal speakers were. I didn't want to carry anything around, since my job involves moving everywhere throughout my plant. So I decided to try a wearable. After a whole lot of research, I decided these would be my choice. At my job, it is very loud. I also have to wear earplugs my entire shift. So how much I can say their sound quality is during that time is iffy at best. But around the house, I feel they are great. Yeah, my heart doesn't vibrate from the bass. But if that's your expectations, a wearable isn't what you should be after. Now at work, they cut the cheese. Considering the volume surrounding me, plus the plugs in my ears, I can hear them pretty well. I wish they were louder, but that's because of my conditions. Without everything going on around me, max volume is way too high. If you wear these while being active, prepare to look like a douche. They like to fall off. A simple solution is tucking them under your shirt. I learned the hard way a few times my first day. The battery life is the only thing I say has something left to be desired. I'm not complaining by any means. But it is hard to get through an eight hour shift. (Granted, at full volume) Overall, I am very satisfied with this product. I've had quite a few gimmicky music devices to cater to my employment, and this is my favorite. It is, for the most part, comfortable to wear. It provides me music when I really would struggle to get my beats any way else while working, and it has survived quite a few drops without any damage (hence tucking ot into a shirt). I would buy again.

Neck speakers aren't for everyone, so only you can decide if you have one or more use cases for these interesting audio accessories (more on neck speakers in general after specific comments on the SRS-NS7, which I'll just call NS7 for the rest of this review). What I will say is that the NS7 provides sound quality good enough for casual music listening while leaving your ears open to hear the environment around you, with better build quality and durability than all the no-name alternatives out there (I'm looking at you and your junk control switches, Oraolo), and without whatever level-control nonsense Monster did to ruin the Boomerang. SOUND QUALITY - I'm a bit confused reading some of the complaints here about sound quality. I have to ask, compared to what? I think Sony's done a great job getting the sound quality they have into a very challenging form factor. Decent loudspeakers or headphones will certainly sound better, but I find the NS7's sound quite satisfying for music listening at a substantial discount from what Bose is charging for a comparable product. The sound stage is a little weird but it definitely exists, though I should note I use these as ordinary BT speakers and can't offer an opinion on Sony 360 Spatial Sound, since my Sony OLED TV isn't recent enough to provide that interface. Tone is warm-ish, not overly bright, with decent low-mids and enough bass that it doesn't seem unnaturally tinny, but hey, you're not hanging a subwoofer around your neck here, so let's be reasonable. BUILD AND CONTROLS - As a BT speaker, the NS7 provides basic easily operated controls for power, volume, play/pause and pairing, but no FF/REW functions. That last bit won't much matter if you don't skip around once you've started/shuffled a playlist, but if you don't have alternate controls on, e.g., a smartwatch, keep that limitation in mind for streaming music "stations" where you might want to skip some songs. Everything feels quite solid and the overall feel is one of quality. This is a nice piece of hardware. That said, I should note that this is a semi-rigid design with a little bit of flex, but nothing like, e.g., the Oraolos, so they feel less like draped around your neck and more like sitting on your shoulders. BATTERY: Battery life is fine, but not spectacular, I've found it more than adequate for a full day's listening (lasts me a week or two, but I don't use it every day). The NS7 at least reports battery level to phones that display that (weirdly some BT speakers don't), so it's easy enough to avoid running out. Charging uses USB-C (yay!), so one less reason to keep a micro-USB cable around. AS FOR NECK SPEAKERS IN GENERAL: The use case here is pretty straightforward - you want to listen to something by yourself but still be fully aware of sounds around you, perhaps while moving around. Neck speakers do that with a little less convenience but far better sound quality than bone conduction headphones, and IMO better environment "awareness" than earbuds with "pass-through" features. They're less convenient because a) they're much bulkier than bone-conductors or buds, b) they're not as well secured, just sitting loosely on your shoulders at the neck, and c) they're speakers, not headphones, so they are QUITE audible to people around you (bone conductors leak a bit of sound also, but nothing like neck speakers). All that said, they're great to wear around the house doing some kinds of chores and even while driving (your ears are completely uncovered so it's not any different from having your car radio on), so I'm happy to have the option. Overall I'm glad I picked 'em up for $200 on a Black Friday sale because the regular $300 price tag gave me pause, but I see they're pretty often available for $250 or so, which I guess is fair enough for the sound quality and unique utility.

The sound was SOOO much better than what I was expecting. I read some reviews regarding the bass and lower sounds, saying that it wasn’t that good. But from my experience so far, it’s more like the rest of the sounds are stellar, and the more bassy sounds are just good. (Which is good.) It’s one of those things where the product outperforms in every area except bass which it just does surprisingly well. (Especially compared to what certain reviews had me worried about.). It’s one of those things where hopefully later iterations of the product advance that aspect a bit further, but there’s nothing wrong with what’s there at all. I also think this product is being marketed terribly. Yeah, movies, TV, music, all great. But gaming is where I noticed the greatest application. Besides the clear directional sound, it’s easily the most immersive sound experience I’ve had in a game by far. For two reasons: 1: You just feel like you’re in the middle of it all. It’s almost as though the speaker itself ceases to exist, and you’re just hearing the sound of the game’s environment around you naturally. 2. Louder moments such as music or combat in the game through the speakers around your neck kinda make it rumble slightly. (The developers should lean into that as an actual feature. It’s like having a controller and a sound based “rumble pack” working together in a way that complements the experience. My point is that this product is amazing for gaming IN PARTICULAR, as good as it is for movies/TV, etc, it should absolutely be marketed (and designed more specifically) to be a gaming sound peripheral. Because it’s about as good as it gets for that purpose. Neck speakers have been around for awhile, and considering the quality of one’s like this, it’s surprising that they aren’t much more mainstream. To me, that’s gotta be more of a marketing problem than anything else, because the product itself is excellent.

I have Trigeminal Neuralgia and when I wear standard on the ear, over the ear, or earbud style headphones I get excruciating ear and side of face pain (2 stars - Sh***y genetics). The Sony collar speakers are great in that they let me still have personal audio without something always pressing on or being stuck in my ear, so they are an absolute lifesaver. • Pros - Excellent Sound: The audio quality is great for what it is. No it’s not going to match the audio quality of audiophile headphones or a true home theater, but it does sound very good. - More of a true personal surround experience than your typical simulated headphone surround - Surprising amount of bass - USB-C Charging - Doesn’t trigger my Trigeminal Neuralgia • Cons - Bad Battery Life: For the size of the speaker, they could have implemented better battery life. I still highly recommend it but ya, battery life is comically bad (maybe 6-7 hrs of use) - Not waterproof at all - Sound Leakage: Due to the open speaker design, there is quite a bit of sound leakage. It’s not horrible, but if you are in the same room with others, they will hear it.

Sony is a large company and I feel these were designed by their soundbar/TV department vs the wearables department. Let's compare against their best in class headphones, the WH-1000XM4/5 which I also own. Let's start with 3 simple specs: driver (speaker) diameter, battery life, and weight: * Sony SRS-NS7: 32mm, 12 hours, 11.3 oz * WH-1000XM4: 40mm, 38 hours, 8.9 oz Does anything jump out to you? The SRS-NS7 has *smaller* speakers, 1/3 the battery, yet it's 27% *heavier*. Let that sink in. What that means is the bulk of the SRS-NS7 is dead weight, just sheer cosmetic. And you can 100% feel it. You'll read 5 star reviews stating how you can't even feel the SRS-NS7 on you. That is false. The speakers are located in the back, and the front 'tips' are weighted in order to serve as a horseshoe "U" anchor around your neck. The problem is the contact point: the rear neck band is an oval that does *not* lay flat against the back of your neck, it rotates so the narrow part of the oval contacts your neck. Aka, there is a small contact patch supporting most of the weight. That could've been mitigated by using a cushioning material, but the neck is made of unyielding silicone. Yes the handfeel of the silicone is 'soft', but it does not give. Also the mic is terrible: it is a single mic on the side, not the beam forming array you find on their WH-1000XM* series. tl;dr I wanted to like these, but it's more concept tech demo a summer intern designed in the home entertainment department. Hard miss. == Sound bubble and quality == The directional 'sound bubble' is just marketing hype. I can clearly make out everything 5 feet away, just at 1/r^2 volume. Sound quality is lackluster. Even the smallest portable bluetooth speaker (like the UE wonderboom) is in a completely different league. Bottomline: This is not up to sony's personal audio wearables standards. I'm legitimately confused how and why they greenlighted this.

Wearble neckband speakers are nothing new, but Sony has outdone themselves with the style of this product. Compared to other similar products, it looks stunning!. The gray mesh-like fabric is sleek. The silicone underside is easy to clean, and at 318g, it is comfortable to wear. The neckband is quite stiff which spurs confidence for its durability, but it is a... novel experience having to slide the neckband from the nape instead of opening it up like a headphone. On the right side of the neckband, we have a power button and a mic toggle button. The power button also acts as a bluetooth pairing button once you hold it down long enough. On the left side, we have our volume controls with a multi-function button smack in the middle. It's a strange placement and I have mistakened it as a volume-down button multiple times, but it may be a design choice that fits a larger audience so I won't discredit it too much. The biggest praise I'll give is its bluetooth connectivity. It pairs ridiculously quick and I can listen from anywhere from my house without the audio cutting out. I haven't used their puck-sized wireless transmitter, so I have no doubt that their bluetooth stability is outstanding. There have been other reviews complaining about connectivity issues, but I haven't experienced such problems so far. Using Sony's LDAC codec is a different story, but doesn't really matter once I've given a critical listen. The sound quality is just terrible. As other reviewers point out, the bass is lackluster. The first 30 seconds of 44 More by Logic gives a low rumble with a thick slam around the 14 second mark. This neckband does not reproduce those bass notes adequately. Subbass is nonexistent which is the body of the song. Midbass is audible, but again, it lacks depth. One quirk of this neckband is the passive radiators. It replaces the subbass with a discernible rumble which I appreciate. Speed and impact is decent. The midrange is a bit strange in this neckband. It is the most audible in the frequency range, but the timbre is off. 5000 Watt Power by Hiroshi Kubota makes use of the Electone. Percussion, brass, electric guitar, and electric organ all lacked clarity. Hikari by eill is my go-to song for female vocals, and her voice sounded so nasally. This tells me that there is some heavy dynamic range compression in the neckband. This may have been done to prevent shouty vocals. Nonetheless, it was not a pleasant experience. Treble is uninspring as well. Most upper harmonics live in the upper treble and given how nasally the midrange was, the treble is not technically great. Summer Flower by Yellow Zebra (my favorite touhou song) has a vocalist with some of the worst ear-piercing siblance I've ever heard. On this neckband, it was tolerable. Overall, it is non-offensive because of how muted the treble region is. Despite the awful tonal frequency, what this neckband excels at is soundstage and imaging. Neon Jungle by Soda Island starts off with guitars and what sounds like bubbles popping in a far away distance. On this neckband, it sounds so spacious and ethereal. I was absolutely surprised just how wide the placement of the instruments could achieve. I'M IN (yunji remix) by GIRIBOY also displays a wide soundstage with its background sound effects. The vocals does sound like it comes from the neckband itself, but I could pinpoint the rest of the background noises with relative ease. The soundstage was so impressive that I tried playing FPS games like Overwatch, CSGO, and Apex Legends with it. This neckband has got to be one of the best audio devices to use for gaming. I understand why this product is marketed towards home cinema users rather than music lovers. I can't blame Sony too harshly since this product is aimed towards a different audience. In fact, it's not even a bad sounding device. If I lift the back of the neckband by just an inch, it sounds so much better. Suddenly, there is clarity in the vocals. Treble is richer and exciting. There is more depth to the bass. Yes, the compression is still there, but the sound is so much more enjoyable. The speaker design is not the issue; it's the focal placement. Hell, I can't even turn my head without losing what little enjoyment exists that is the sound. The sweet spot is very small. If there is an aftermarket product that lifts the neckband by a couple of inches, I would wholeheartedly recommend this product. As of now, I can't find myself using it occasionally. If you plan to use this product to listen to music, please look elsewhere.

A Nice product for my Use case. I love to watch movies and Music a lot . Have restrictions on using the home theatre effects due to family/ Building Association norms. Also , Cant use Headphones for a longtime as it isolates completely from surrounding sounds. But , this product has helped me in Watching any content with Good Sound Effects and also very well aware of the surroundings. Have not yet tried the SONY PUG provided along with the product as I don't have Sony television. However, I use a Good Quality (Aventree/Tewtross) Bluetooth Tx/Rx Devices which allows me to get Good Sound clarity and no lip sync issues with this Product. IMHO- Don't use the TV Bluetooth connections as they are not so stable and lack the Clarity. One thing where this lags a bit is on the Bass effect. As compared to other Sony Bluetooth Speakers, Not so punchy. I use Bose, Sony and Marshall Bluetooth products for my personal listening. Hence, stressing on the Bass Effect :)
