Anyone else switch back to neckbands after trying TWS? I’ve tried various TWS options, and none worked reliably enough in the long run.

1. Portability issues: TWS are easy to lose and feels uncomfortable to use in public spaces due to fear of loosing it.
2. Battery life: Their batteries degrade much faster than those of neckbands.
3. Reliability: Even my AirPods 2 stopped connecting consistently after a year, while my CMF neckband has continued to work reliably even with a nearly broken wire. The amount of physical abuse that neckband has endured is impressive.

I can’t always use wired headphones in all situations if I’m ditching TWS, but neckbands feel like the perfect solution, best of both worlds. It seems like a mistake on the consumer side to let them fall out of fashion.
