Kind of make sense since fans with wider blades and larger diameters are typically quieter than smaller fans because they can move the same amount of air at a lower speed (RPM). This slower speed results in less noise due to reduced air turbulence and vibrations. Larger fans also distribute airflow more efficiently, requiring less effort to move air.
And this fan has very small blades so much higher RPM to produce the same airflow. Which is why it is very loud. Wonder if there are other portable fans with larger blades which hopefully produce less noise than this.
It really reduce the use case for this if it is too loud to use around people or too loud so you can't concentrate on the things you are doing.....

This same vendor has a newer fan that has a similar look and price, and it appears to be just as loud. My guess is you won't find a similar fan that's quiet unless it's bigger and/or more expensive.

Maybe the sound is less noticeable outside.
get one of those portable job site fans. They're big and quiet.. Lol emphasis on the big part compared to op. Won't be able to wear it around your neck. Or maybe you can if you have a strong neck

I don't think it's a good deal though. I bought mine for around $5, and there are plenty of other options.
