 See Price

This is a bit of an unorthodox headset in comparison to many of the other options on the market. Any earbuds we've tested don't have a mic boom and give a less than ideal voice quality. The Neckset 20 is wired earbuds with a mic boom that rests comfortably around your neck with earbuds you can place in one or both ears, and a microphone that gives your voice a more rich sound.

Being the Neckset 20 is plug and play via USB-A or USB-C it's easy to use on call and meeting software like Zoom, Teams, RingCentral and others. No software downloads required.

In Ear Headsets FAQ

Q: What are the best earbuds for phone calls in noisy places?

A: This is tricky to answer because any earbuds we've tested don't do the best to be heard clearly in noisy environments. The Discover D713U and Discover Neckset 20 are a couple best we've tested, being that they have a mic boom. But you could also consider adding neep microphone noise canceling sofware to go with any earbuds of your choice. 

Q: Are earbuds good for zoom calls?

A: You can get away with using earbuds for Zoom calls but the voice quality on most we've tested don't sound very good and don't do a good job to reduce the background noise around you. This is why the Neckset 20 was created.

Q: What is the difference between active noise canceling and noise canceling

A: ANC (active noise cancelling) is a technology added in headphones for you to further reduce unwanted background noise. Whereas noise canceling has different meanings depending who you're talking to. But in general noise canceling can refer to speakers or a microphone. Don't mistake active noise cancelling headphones and think this refers to microphone noise canceling. ANC refers to reducing unwanted background noise for you, not what your callers hear.
