True wireless earbuds are all the rage, but we shouldn’t discount the practicality of a good neckband. LG refreshes their Tone lineup, with Meridian tuning and excellent support for your phone’s voice assistant. A cleaner design, and refined build. Can LG make a little noise with some new headphones?
