It's enough for the price.
Battery is too good, In one full charge it will give two days battery life. But sound is little bit low. But it's good for who's always on calls. It's not for music lovers, because sounds are low.

Except sound quality
Battery life is good.. looks cool on neck.. very comfortable. Water proofed.. sound quality is okay.. it’s crips and clear but bass is not enough eve n after changing the equalizer and bass on knob in the ear bud. Easy Bluetooth connectivity.. when the headset is under shirt collar then you would have issues with MIc picking your voice during calls.

Excellent Headphones - Comfortable and Sound Great!
I just upgraded from the LG HBS-900 to these about a week ago and have been extremely happy so far.As with anything, there are pros and cons - but the pros definitely outweigh the cons for me:=== Sound Quality ===The sound quality is the best I've ever heard in this form factor, which was a little surprising. Personally, I expected them to be about the same as the HBS-900, so I was both surprised and pleased to hear how great these sound.I'll be the first to admit I'm not an audio professional, and I mostly use them for phone calls and audio books - but they do sound great!=== Bluetooth Connection ===This is another area where I didn't expect to find much difference from the HBS-900; but, once again, I was pleasantly surprised.Although I never had much issue with the previous model, there were situations that would cause them to get stat-icky or drop out completely - like using them around a microwave. These headphones don't have that issue at all, and the overall range is excellent as well.=== Android Media Volume Sync ===It probably sounds dumb, but this is the primary reason I chose to upgrade in the first place.The HBS-900 headphones use Bluetooth 3.0; and, as a result, they don't support Media Volume Sync. These HBS-920 headphones use Bluetooth 4.0 - and the Media Volume Sync feature works perfectly with my Galaxy S8 phone.This is great for people like me who use multiple Bluetooth speakers and headsets, and like to keep the volume set on the device instead of having to re-adjust the volume every time a new device is connected.=== Retractable Ear Buds ===These headphones from LG with the retractable ear buds are my absolute favorite form factor for headphones because they're lightweight and comfortable for all-day use. Part of the reason they're so comfortable is because the weight (which is pretty insignificant) is supported by my neck instead of my ears, and they stay consistently in the same position.On top of that, the voice quality on phone calls tends to be better (at least it is for me) - and I think that has a lot to do with the consistent location of the microphone (as opposed to the cord style headphones like the Bose SoundSport or Jaybird X3 .As a result, I have a set of these at work and a set at home - but I do prefer to travel with the cord-style headphones because they're so easy to pack without having to worry about breaking them.=== Ease of Use ===This is the first area where I haven't been completely happy. This headset looks great; but, the good looks come at the expense of usability.For example, the HBS-900 featured large, easy to use buttons right on the front that were easy to operate by feel. All the buttons for the HBS-920 are tucked away on the side, and are easy to get mixed up with the headphone retraction buttons...On top of that, the power button is tiny and the USB charging port cover is difficult to remove (I have had to resort to using my pocket knife in a couple of instances).The retracting earbuds are also covered by little 'hoods' on both sides so they aren't visible when retracted (which looks great); but, once again, it makes them hard to get ahold of.I know ease of use is subjective - and I'll likely get used to the new button layout, but I truly think these put form over function.=== Battery Life ===I was never unhappy with the battery life on the HBS-900, and these are at least as good.I basically put them on when I get to work in the morning and leave them on for 8-10 hours with no issues. During a typical day they're always on, I'm on the phone ~3 hours, and I'm listening to music for ~1 hour.=== Reliability ===I obviously haven't had these long enough to judge reliability yet; but, I did use the HBS-900 headphones extensively for just over 2 years. If these measure up to those, then I'll be happy.If something does go wrong with these headphones, or I start having issues, I'll be sure to update this review.[*** Update 7/3/2017 ***]The 'Play' button failed on one of these yesterday - which is kind of a bummer since I've only had them for a couple of months. I ordered the same model as a replacement because it's possible the failure was a fluke; but, I'll definitely revise my review if I run into any more issues.Personally, I always expected the pull-cord to be the weak link and never expected a button issue.=== Conclusion ===At the end of the day, my only gripe with these is the usability - and I know I'll train myself to use them eventually. I have to admit they look great, which helps offset the usability complaint to some small extent.In every other way, these absolutely excel! If you're looking for a top-quality, and comfortable set of Bluetooth headphones for every day usage then I would highly recommend giving them a try! LG HBS-900Bose SoundSportJaybird X3

Great headset. Was happy with the lower model but this one far exceeds what I hoped for.

Pros and cons from an experienced LG around-the-neck user
I've been using the LG line of around-the-neck earbuds for the past four years, and I've gone through 5-6 versions. I'm going to start with some things I've gotten to know about using these and then let you know where these are an improvement and where they're a disappointment.Things to know about this style of earbuds:1. They don't have an infinite lifespan. I use my set at least 8hrs/day Monday - Friday at at least a few hours on the weekend. I get 9-12 months consistently out of the LG brand stuff before something breaks. I wear them while sweating, in dusty environments, and in the heat. I find this to be a really reasonable lifespan for the amount of use I get.2. I've tried branching off to try some off-brand options (cheaper). They were nowhere near as durable.3. I use these for talking on the phone all the time. There are some newer options that are strictly in-ear, however, the mic on the LG around-the-neck models is very passable for talking on the phone.4. I am not an audiophile, so I'm not going to nitpick on the sound quality. It sounds good enough to me. If you're looking for top quality sound, a wired set is probably still the best option.About this specific model (the good stuff):1. Battery life is great. I easily make it through a full day. I listen to several hours of audiobooks a day, as well as phone calls, so they're in-use for a good chunk of the time.2. Mic seems to be a small improvement over previous models.3. The wireless capabilities are an improvement over previous models. I get a few extra feet of distance and they're much less prone to dropping out when I'm near a microwave.About this model (the bad):1. The location of the on/off switch is asinine. It touches and irritates my neck.2. The button activated retraction of the buds is not necessary. My previous model just had a "tug to retract" sort of style, which was perfectly sufficient. At the time I stopped using them (one of the buds went out), the retract still worked well. Having the button retraction just adds two more unnecessary buttons.3. Still no improvement on a battery life indicator. The voice will tell you "battery high, medium, low", but it's really not enough info to get an idea on how much time you have. I've found that if it says "low" I probably have less than 1/2 hour.Conclusion:Overall this is an improvement over the previous model I was using. I've read some other reviews that are mediocre at best, but this set definitely meets my expectations. I'd recommend keeping in mind the limited lifespan before you decide if they're worth the price for you -- if you are not a frequent user, a cheaper set might be just as good.If LG happens to read this, please go back to the pull-to-retract method and move the power button.

Best version of LG TONE headsets ever!
I've been a long time user of the LG headsets. I broke my previous set and instead of going with one of the newer sets, I chose to just get another LG TONE INFINIM HBS-920 after reading all of the reviews from other long time users. Seem like the sound quality was not as good, and the changes to the buttons was unacceptable to me. I'm a Realtor in Boston and always on the road. I rely on my headset for calls, navigation, podcasts, audio books, ZOOM meetings and seminars. I really hope they bring all of the button functionality back in the next generatio...if not I'll buy another LG TONE INFINIM HBS-920!
