Bluetooth earphones : TWS or Neckband

I’d rather lose my headphones then have one earbud staring at me every day, silently accusing me of losing its mate.

Why the hell would you want both?

TWS because I preferred bluetooth to not deal with cables.

Neither. Wired all the way.

thanks for playing

I prefer TWS. My last neckband pair were always getting caught on my clothing and long hair.

The comfort and convenience of TWS is hard to beat. The Pixel Buds series A are amazing for the price.

It's harder for me to lose a neckband

For podcasts (not music) I like a single wireless Bluetooth headphone so that I can pay attention to the world around me. The audio fidelity isn't that important to me for just listening to people talk.

Bluetooth earphones will never achieve sound quality of a cabled earphone. So I use a cabled iem.

Never is a bold claim.
- Like aptX lossless with a good DAC and you are pretty much there.
You just need to achieve a sound quality which is pretty much undistinguishable. And current tech is already there. Blame the manufacturers for not using it.
Same here. And I never have to worry about charging them.
Good for you, but that doesn't answer OPs question.
There's always one of these guys in these threads

I've had both. I found the neckband more convenient. Just wear the on your neck when not in use. But the cable gave up after 1,5 years. TWS, I lost three earbuds..

I prefer over ear headphones as they tend to sound better, don't fall off my ears every few minutes, and have better battery life. But that's just my personal preference.

TWS - but only if they’re the kind with those curved plastic pieces that hook around your ear. I don’t trust earbuds not to fall out and get lost or stepped on.

I've had my Samsung buds Pro for nearly e years, and the only time I've had that issue is when when I hang my head fully upside down. But they've never fallen out, just slipped a tiny bit.
- Yeah. I know it’s highly unlikely, but it concerns me anyway. The “hooks” are more for my peace of mind than anything else.

Depends on what I am listening to and doing. I usually like magnetic neckband headphones if I am moving around and maybe listening to a book, but prefer iems or openbacks if I am listening to music.

I still use wired headphones because I have a pair I like and they still work fine. If I were to pick up a Bluetooth pair, I'd go for headphones or the neckband style over the AirPod-style.
