Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Hello neckband Bluetooth enthusiast! If your looking for a straight up honest review on the LG Tone Flex HBS-XL7 Bluetooth headset, you've clicked on the right review! I recently bought these headphones, the (LG Tone Flex HBS-XL7) after coming from using my LG Tone Ultra HBS-810's (which I love) for so many years. And after a few uses, I was disappointed with the results. The LG Tone Flex HBS-XL7 sound quality is HORRIBLE! Their using this new sound company called Meridian, come on! I've had JBL sound in my ears from my 810's and listening to the difference, JBL WINS HANDS DOWN! Now on the battery life, OMG the battery life, please pay attention reviewers! The battery life on the LG Flex HBS-XL7: Talk Time-8 hrs/ Play Time-10hrs / Standby Time-18 days. Now the battery life on the LG Tone Ultra HBS-810: Talk Time-17hrs/ Play Time-13hrs/ up to-550hrs or 23 days! This is not rocket science but the LG Tone Ultra HBS-810's is FAR WAY BETTER on battery life! Now, the controls on the LG Tone Flex HBS-XL7 are a little confusing if you used another set of Bluetooth's such as me for so long and I have to say that LG dropped the ball on that as well. Having the volume and skip working to together was a bad idea. I found myself driving (semi trucks) getting the buttons mixed up causing nothing but frustration and eventually taking these LG Tone Flex HBS-XL7 off my neck and I couldn't wait to get home to box them up and SEND THEM BACK! I didn't like holding down the power button not being able to tell if my Flex HBS-XL7 was on or not verses just a simple on and off switch like the LG Tone Ultra HBS-810's have. The only good thing I can say about the LG Tone Flex HBS-XL7 is the flexible neck band which feels really comfortable for all day use! Like I said, I couldn't wait to get home from work to box up my LG Tone Flex HBS-XL7 and return them back, that was such a good feeling and I'm glad I didn't just throw away my LG Tone Ultra HBS-810's which are in very good condition! I cleaned them off and personally told them "I'm sorry" lol! I always take great care of my Bluetooth headsets but now I'm taking EXTRA care of my LG Tone Ultra HBS-810's and even brought a extra pair of the LG Tone Ultra HBS-810's just incase something happens to the ones I already have, lol! I hope this review helps, take care!
