Anker Soundcore - Life P2

Hi. If you’re looking for earbuds under $30 that work well for both gaming and music, I'd recommend checking out the Anker Soundcore Life P2. They have low latency, so they’ll work well for gaming, and the sound quality is surprisingly good for the price. Plus, they’re comfortable and have good battery life, so you can enjoy music for hours. Another good option is the TOZO T6. They’ have decent sound and low latency for gaming. Plus, they’re waterproof

Soundcore Anker Life P2 (not the Mini version) if you can still find them. I prefer these ones while wearing gloves because the button is pretty large, good tactile feedback, and the longer stem makes it easier to grab with gloves. Edit: realized you said ANC. For that, I use the Soundcore Life P3i Hybrid. Smaller in size, and physical button is smaller, so they are a bit harder to handle with gloves. 

If you're looking for affordable earbuds for side sleeping and listening to audiobooks, I recommend the Anker Soundcore Life P2. They're budget-friendly, comfortable, and provide good sound quality, which should work well for side sleeping without causing discomfort.

Yes! I bought original Anker sound core buds about five yrs ago still going strong Monday thru Friday before they finally fade. Used to last all wk.

Bought the Soundcore P2 and P2 mini about 3 years ago for my wife and I, been using them daily for gym no complaints 👍🏻

Soundcore Life for me — a very venerable pair of Q20 over-ears when I'm at home or P2 buds if I'm on the move. Sound quality on the Life line is a bit less than the Liberty line,\* but the price is a lot less too. ^(\*I wonder if they'll do a "Pursuit of Happiness" line to complete the trifecta?)

Under $60 is tight, but there are actually a few solid options if you keep expectations reasonable. For everyday use + PS5, I’d honestly skip most “gaming” headsets in this price range and go with something more general-purpose. Anker Soundcore Q20 / Q20i is probably your best bet. Good battery life, comfortable for long sessions, decent mic for the price, and you can use them wired with the PS5 controller. They usually go for around $50–60. If you want something smaller, Soundcore Life P2 / P3 earbuds are also pretty solid for bus use and still work fine for gaming in wired mode with the controller. At this budget, wired + Bluetooth combo is the safest way to get something that lasts.

I had a previous set of the life line that died prior to getting my libertys. Had never spent more than 50 or so on a pair of ear buds and was realizing just how much I was wearing them so I decided to go ahead and spend a bit more. I have 0 regrets, absolutely love em.

Go for the soundcore P30i, if you can. Those have great noise cancelling at a budget, as long as you're not expecting Apple or Bose level ANC. Transparency is pretty decent too, but obviously not perfect, as you can expect. You can get 6/10 hours of playback on a single charge (ANC on/off), and 25/45 hours with the case, and ever customize things like touch controls, low-latency Gaming Mode, Multipoint Connection, Custom EQ, etc. in the app! If you can't afford P30i in your country or they're not available, P20i is also a solid choice. No ANC or Transparency, and the build quality is a little bit lighter, but they're not bad at all. You can also get 10 hours of playback from one single charge, and 30 with the case. You can also customize touch controls in the app, change EQs, etc. I personally wouldn't go for the P2 Mini or any soundcore Life earbuds. Those are soundcore's older buds, and with most of them, you can't use the free app to customize them, and there are physical buttons instead of tap controls, which most people don't love. Hope this helped!

Yes. As a brand and their prices, good entry brand sila of you enter the rabbit hole of being an...audiophile. If for Spotify and streaming movies, goods na yan.
