"Over all they’re my favorite pair of wireless earbuds I’ve owned- and I’ve gone through a lot- and for $30 they’ll serve you well."
"Well worth the $30 USD."
"Incredible for a cheap earbud. ... Honestly, I would have thought these earbuds were more in the $50-60 range."

"I use it literally 18 hours or more a day and I can personally say, they don't hurt my earholes. ... They stayed on even after a 3 hour nap in bed, lying down."
"I have worn them for many runs and races and have never had one fall off."
"The comfort level is outstanding."

"I think I can confidently say that these will fit anyone and everyone's taste in music, but ONLY because it's soundcore and their app let's you choose EQ settings that would fit your taste. ... Literally each one of the genres I listed sound amazing and most importantly IMMERSIVE when paired with the right EQ ... I was listening to The Red Clay Strays and was not quite satisfied with the way their music sounded so I tried the "Piano" EQ setting, and holy fuck it's like the mids that i was talking about broke out of their cage and colors started flying. The best way I could describe it is that the vocals and instrumentals became more detailed and colorful as opposed to just being a dull and flat board hitting you in the ears. ... For any and I feel like all kinds of audio, you can get what you want with the right EQ setting (preset or custom, whichever you like), even binaural beats which are these pretentious yoga droning noises that i listen to when i can't sleep, they end up being a spiritual experience. ... there's the EQ customization, allowing you to tailor the earbuds' sound quality to a specific genre or taste. there's a ton of different presets for those who have no idea how to manually do it (me), and there's that custom EQ for the sound engineers"

I feel like the R50i NC (or maybe soundcore in general, idk) has an incredibly versatile range when it comes to sound quality, if you don't like bass too much, there's an EQ for that, or if you want your brain rattling for every beat, there's an EQ for that too. For any and I feel like all kinds of audio, you can get what you want with the right EQ setting (preset or custom, whichever you like), even binaural beats which are these pretentious yoga droning noises that i listen to when i can't sleep, they end up being a spiritual experience. ... max volume is LOUD, like loud enough for the people whose goal in life is to learn how to read lips out of necessity."
"fantastic EQ app that also let's your customize the easy to use touch controls"

"I use them constantly from 7am to 12 midnight (only music but ANC is on and volume is full blast) and I only had to charge once when it was at 20% and it took about 15 to maybe 20 minutes to full charge. ... So safe to say I think 10 hours of listening as advertised is true"

So safe to say I think 10 hours of listening as advertised is true ... Battery Life is great, long enough that i only had to put it in the case once while using it from 7am to 12 midnight. Charging only took 15-20 minutes to be 100%"
"the battery life is unmatched"

"The R50i NC has a pretty good noise cancelling feature. it cancels out most noises, most especially the low and deep noises such as traffic. ... voices and conversations are ALMOST muted, if you're not listening to music and basically just using these as earplugs, you can still kinda hear people talk but you won't understand a lick of what theyre saying unless you're face to face. It kinda sounds like pressing a thick pillow over people's faces when they're talking. ... I like it, it works for me, especially since once you play music along with ANC, you won't be able to hear any of those little things that penetrate the ANC aside from ambulances and annoying fucking alarms playing on very loud speakers from your brother's PC"
"Soundcore P30i are the best with ANC I've used at that pricepoint."
"ANC ... Been using them for the gym and they block out a decent amount of noise."

"The c30i notorious for breaking at the connection. ... I used to use a c30i and they broke at the connection. ... They also broke but still work though lmao. ... Nah the c30i are great and all but they are poorly built and fragile. ... One wrong drop and they crack instantly."
"they are made of rigid plastic and after few hours i felt a little pain on my ears."
"the hinges of the p30i/r50i nc feels super duper light and easy to open that when i pick it up by it, kinda opens abit makes it feel like it has a problem"

"The only issue is the call quality, it is absolutely atrocious and every single person comments on it, so much so that I just take them out for phone calls now."
"Now they cut out all the time at the gym in the high quality mode when it gets busy. ... Very annoying."
"Calling was even worse (metallic voice if you are on a windy/noisy place)"
