Who the Oraimo Necklace Lite is for
This is not a headset for someone who wants total silence on a Lagos danfo. Oraimo does not list active noise cancellation for music on the Necklace Lite; the noise-cancelling claim is specifically about calls, where Oraimo says a proprietary algorithm and microphone reduce surrounding noise. Buy it for the following instead.
- People who miss calls. The headline feature is the call vibration alert, driven by a motor Oraimo says reaches up to 15,000 rpm. One verified buyer, a media worker who moves between live streaming jobs, said the vibration around the neck is what made them buy it a third time.
- Commuters and long-shift workers. A neckband sits on your collarbone rather than inside your ears, so you can keep one or both buds out and still hear traffic, a conductor or a colleague.
- People juggling two phones. Oraimo states the Necklace Lite connects to two devices at once, so a work line and a personal line can share one headset.
- Gym and outdoor users. IPX4 covers sweat and light splashes, which is the realistic limit for Lagos heat and a sweaty workout.
If you want deep isolation, a fully wireless pair, or studio-grade sound, this is the wrong product category, not a bad version of the right one.
Sound, calls and key features
Oraimo specifies 10mm dynamic drivers paired with its HavyBass algorithm, and describes the result as deep bass. That is a bass-forward tuning rather than a neutral one, which suits Afrobeats, amapiano, street pop and podcasts recorded with heavy low end. Because the drivers are 10mm and the fit is in-ear with a neckband, the bass response depends heavily on how well the tips seal in your ears, so try the different tip sizes before judging the sound.
The oraimo Sound APP is where you get more control. Oraimo says the app tunes the audio and lets you tailor the sound to your preference, and the app can also be used to activate the second device connection. If you like adjusting EQ rather than accepting a factory curve, that is a genuine advantage at this price.
Other features Oraimo lists:
- Call noise cancellation. An algorithm plus microphone aimed at cutting background noise so your voice comes through clearly. Useful on a noisy street or in a bus park.
- Low-latency game mode. Oraimo says it keeps audio and video in sync for games and video. That matters for shooters and for anyone watching video where lip-sync drift is irritating.
- Magnetic earbuds. Each bud has a built-in magnet so the two ends clip together when you are not using them, which stops the tangle you get with a loose neckband in a bag pocket.
- Dual device connection. Oraimo's instructions are to long press the O and + buttons together, or switch it on in the app.
One buyer's only complaint was cosmetic: they ordered the gold variant and found it was white with a touch of gold rather than a true gold finish. If colour accuracy matters to you, that is worth knowing before you order.
Battery and everyday use
Oraimo rates the Necklace Lite at 30 hours of music playback on a single charge. That is a big number for a neckband, and it is the reason several buyers describe the battery life as long. For a Nigerian user this is the practical part of the pitch: with grid supply being what it is, a headset you charge roughly once or twice a week is far less of a burden than one you plug in every evening, and you can top it up from a power bank during an outage.
Be clear about what the 30-hour figure is. Oraimo states it as music playback time. It is not a promise of 30 hours of continuous calls, and it is not a figure for listening with the app's EQ pushed around or with game mode running. Treat 30 hours as the best-case music figure and expect real-world use to land below it.
The neckband format itself is the other practical point. It hangs around your neck when you are not listening, so it does not disappear into a pocket or get lost between the seats of a bus. The magnets keep the buds together in transit. And because it is Bluetooth, it needs no cable to your phone, which matters if you are moving around a market or a site with your hands full.
Downsides and limits
No product at ₦18,800 is without compromises, and the honest list here is short but real.
- No active noise cancellation for music. Oraimo's noise-cancelling claim covers calls only. If you want to block generator noise, loud neighbours or danfo chatter while listening to music, this headset will not do it. That is a specification limit, not a fault.
- IPX4 is splash and sweat resistance only. It is not waterproof. Do not swim in it, do not wear it in heavy rain, and do not rinse it under a tap.
- Bass-heavy tuning is not for everyone. HavyBass is a deliberate low-end emphasis. If you mainly listen to acoustic, classical or vocal-forward music and want flat sound, you will be fighting the tuning, though the app EQ gives you some room to adjust.
- Colour may not match the listing. A verified buyer reported that the gold variant arrived looking white with a slight gold tint rather than properly gold.
- Neckband, not true wireless. There is a band around your neck, and the buds are tethered to it. If you want nothing on your neck, skip this format entirely.
- 30 hours is a music figure. Oraimo does not state call time or charging time, so do not assume the same endurance on a day of back-to-back calls.
What verified buyers say
Oraimo's store shows a 4.8 out of 5 rating from 6,955 reviews, and the written reviews we were given are strongly positive. Buyers repeatedly praise sound quality, ease of use and value for money. One called it "one of the best I've used" and said they were ordering it for the second time after a mentor took the first one and reportedly gave up all his other earbuds. Another said listening to music on it is "such a pleasure" a month in. A media worker explained that the call vibration around the neck is the reason they have now bought it three times, because it lets them catch calls while moving between live streaming jobs, and added that it looks good with what they wear. A fifth reviewer, who deliberately waited a week before writing, said it works exactly as described, has long battery life, and that the call vibration is "top notch" so they no longer miss calls.
The complaints on record are minor. The same reviewer who called it "da bomb" for fast delivery and sound quality was unhappy that the gold variant was not actually gold-painted but white with a little gold. No buyer in the reviews supplied reported a fault with the battery, the vibration motor, the microphone or the build quality.
Verdict
Buy the Oraimo Necklace Lite if you want a cheap, long-lasting neckband whose main job is making sure you never miss a call. It suits commuters, media and field workers, people running two phones, and anyone who wants bass-forward music with app EQ control for well under ₦20,000. The call vibration alert is the feature buyers keep mentioning, and the 30-hour music rating makes it a low-maintenance companion when power is unreliable.
Skip it if you need active noise cancellation for music, want fully wireless buds with nothing around your neck, need a genuinely waterproof headset for swimming, or prefer neutral rather than bass-heavy sound. If any of those describe you, this is the wrong product for your needs rather than a bad buy. Confirm the current price on Oraimo's site before ordering, since the ₦18,800 figure we quote was checked on 8 October 2026 and prices move.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Oraimo Necklace Lite have noise cancellation?
Oraimo states noise cancellation for calls only, using a proprietary algorithm and microphone to reduce surrounding noise and keep your voice clear. Oraimo does not list active noise cancellation for music playback, so it will not silence a generator or a noisy bus while you are listening to music.
How long does the battery last and how long does it take to charge?
Oraimo rates the Necklace Lite at 30 hours of music playback on a single charge. Oraimo does not state a charging time, and it does not give a separate call-time figure, so treat 30 hours as the music figure and expect calls and heavy EQ use to use more.
Can I connect it to two phones at the same time?
Yes. Oraimo says the Necklace Lite can connect two devices simultaneously. To pair the second device, long press the O and + buttons together, or activate it through the oraimo Sound APP.
Can I wear it in the gym or in the rain?
It carries an IPX4 waterproof rating, which Oraimo describes as protection against sweat during gym work, running and other sweaty exercise. IPX4 is splash resistance, not full waterproofing, so do not submerge it or wear it in heavy rain.
