Suggest Bluetooth earphones that don't fully go inside ear canal, primary usage is work calls

Yes this is on my radar already. But the review posted above by @blr_p doesn't instill confidence at all.


It is not deliverable anywhere.

The reason they have been at that price for quite some time is that they are "technically" really bad, which is what rtings focuses on. However, for a specific use case, the price is quite good.

I don't think you'll find any other options aside from that portronics and jbl tune neckbands. Other options are just too pricy now (and they're tws not neckbands) for your limited usecase.

Mic is decent for 6.6

Your mx4 scores a 5.2 or on par with my galaxy buds live for mic quality

So I am looking for earbuds that dont fully go inside ear canal. Something like airpods (not airpods pro) design. I did find one that seem to tick all boxes, the jbl tune 215bt but want to ask if there are any other that are available?
Cannot buy airpods as they are pretty expensive. I think there are some earphones in TWS category of this type but not sure if there is one that is good.

My primary usage is office calls on teams. Absolutely no music at all other that rare times when I am doing some monotonous work and listen to some songs. Once in a blue moon.

Please suggest.

Edit: Calls is usage with Microsoft Teams on Laptop (Dell).

There is an evolve 75 for sale in the dealer classifieds. Wireless and very high tech anc and a lot more comfortable than their wired usb models A bit pricey but amazing for work calls. Especially noise rejection. I was in a bus playing some rajnikant movie at full blast and the folks at the other end could hear me and was not even aware there was a movie going on
 
Dealer section man
Seems price has gone up. It was 9 a few days ago
