HOTTU Neckband Review: Best Neckband in Pakistan for Sound Lovers

If you’re in Pakistan and looking for a wireless neckband that delivers strong sound, long battery life, and useful features without costing a fortune, HOTTU has become one of the most talked-about local brands in 2025. I’ve spent the last few weeks daily-driving three of their popular models – the NB15 Voice Changer, NB12 Bass Xtreme, and NB07 Plus – to see which one actually deserves the “best neckband” title for Pakistani users. Here’s my honest take.

1. HOTTU NB12 Bass Xtreme – The Bass King Under 3,000 PKR

Price: PKR 2,499 (sale from regular Rs.3,999)

This is the neckband most people in Pakistan are buying right now, and after using it for gym sessions, bike rides, and long office calls, I understand why.

Sound Quality

The NB12 lives up to its “Bass Xtreme” name. It uses 13mm drivers and has proper low-end punch that you rarely get at this price. Pakistani music fans who love Atif Aslam, Asim Azhar, or Young Stunner tracks will feel the bass hit hard without muddying vocals. Mids and highs are clear enough for daily use – you won’t mistake it for a studio monitor, but it’s more than good enough for the price.

Battery & Charging

HOTTU claims 70+ hours playback – I got 65–68 hours at 70% volume with moderate calls. That’s easily a full week for most people. 10-minute charge gives around 10–12 hours, perfect for our load-shedding schedules.

Build & Comfort

Lightweight flexible silicone neckband, magnetic buds (they stick together when not in use), and IPX5 water/sweat resistance. I wore it for 2-hour workouts and 4-hour bike rides in Lahore traffic – zero neck fatigue.

Call Quality

Dual ENC mics work surprisingly well even in noisy Karachi markets. People on the other end said my voice was clear.

Verdict: If you want maximum bass and battery on a budget, the NB12 is currently the strongest contender under 3K in Pakistan.

2. HOTTU NB15 Voice Changer – The Fun One

Price: PKR 1,999 (sale from regular Rs.3,000)

This is the neckband that went viral on TikTok because of its built-in voice changer (12 different effects: child, female, male, robot, cartoon, etc.).

When is it actually useful?

• Prank calls & gaming with friends
• Content creators making funny reels
• Kids absolutely love it

Sound & Performance

Sound signature is very close to the NB12 but slightly brighter. Bass is still strong, just 10–15% less intense than the Bass Xtreme model. Battery life is solid at 40 hours playtime as per specs – I got around 38 hours in real-world tests.

The voice changer button is on the neckband itself – one press cycles through effects, long press turns it off. Works on WhatsApp, PUBG, Free Fire, Discord, etc.

Downside: The voice effects add a tiny bit of latency in games (barely noticeable in casual play). If you don’t need the voice changer, save money and get the NB12 instead.

3. HOTTU NB07 Plus – The All-Rounder

Price: PKR 3,299 (sale from regular Rs.4,099)

This is the oldest model but still sells like crazy because of the price-to-performance ratio.

What you get:

• 40-hour battery (real-world ~36 hours)
• Decent balanced sound (less bass than NB12)
• Very comfortable fit
• Fast charging (10 min = 7 hours)
• Sweat-proof design with environmental noise cancellation and magnetic headphones

It doesn’t have the extreme bass of NB12 or the voice changer of NB15, but for students, office use, or anyone who wants clean sound without heavy bass, this is perfect.

Things I Like About HOTTU (All Models)

• Local warranty (1-year replacement in most cities)
• Easy availability – Daraz, official site, and physical store.
• Type-C charging (finally!)
• Magnetic buds that pause music automatically
• Very good value – no other brand gives this much at these prices in Pakistan right now

Final Recommendation for Pakistani Buyers (2025)

• Want the absolute best sound + battery under 3K? → Go for NB12 Bass Xtreme
• Love gaming/pranks/content creation? → NB15 Voice Changer is worth the extra money
• Need something reliable and cheap for calls + music? → NB07 Plus is still excellent

Right now in Pakistan, HOTTU neckbands offer the strongest combination of sound, battery, and features in the 2,000–3,500 PKR range. If you’re tired of paying 10K+ for big brands and getting half the battery life, give HOTTU a try – thousands of Pakistanis already have, and most are extremely happy.
