Anker Soundcore - Life P3i

I have the Soundcore Life P3i’s and they can get very loud with good sound quality. They also have side buttons to skip songs pause songs and change volume. The noise cancellation is also great as long as you have something playing.

I have soundcore liberty p3i for over 2 years. They are really good. I want to upgrade but they are rock solid and won’t die. Soundcore’s support is great also, my daughter’s soundcore broke one time and they sent her a new pair right away. I hear a lot about some of the other ones you mention but can only personally speak to the soundcores.

I have the Soundcore Life P3i earbuds. Very comfy, last all day, good noise cancelling, and it has a feature where is pipes in ambient noise that you can adjust the volume to your liking! For me, the noise cancelling all but mutes the HVAC and other noises around the office, so much so it’s like stepping into a sound booth!

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. 

They are both physical buttons that have to click in and out. No touch functionality. The P3i looks like there are no buttons in the photos, but they do have them. P2 is easy to see the large round button.

Coming from someone with horrible misophonia and who has tried nearly every noise cancelling earbud on the market: If you're on a budget: Soundcore life p3i. The battery life is amazing!! The noise cancellation depending on the environment ranges from 8-8.5/10 at around mid volume imo. They stay in my ear pretty well, even while I'm eating or talking. Call quality is not good and you will need to disconnect. If you don't want people to see you're wearing earbuds: Jabra elite 10 gen 2. My hair covers them well. On many days I'll wear them under an elastic headband and it is undetectable. Battery life is only about 6 hours :/ Noise cancelling is about 7/10 at mid volume for me so I often find myself raising the volume higher than I normally would prefer to to compensate. If you can splurge: Sony WF-1000XM5. The battery is better than my Jabras but not as good as my soundcore. But the noise cancelling... Chef's kiss. Whoever designed these earbuds deserves a raise. I'd say in most situations they're a 9-9.5/10 at mid volume but easily become 10/10 if I need them to buy just raising the volume a bit more. I will say, they are a bit on the heavier side and will loosen or fall out while talking a lot or eating. They can make my ears sore after about 4-5+ hours of wear. I keep these three in rotation throughout the day, but most frequently will reach for my soundcores because it's a safe choice. But when I was working, I NEEDED my Jabras with me at all times. Sonys are great for sleep for me especially since my partner snores/breathes loudly.

I used to stick to the soundcore life p3 as their price was within $60-100 canadian depending on sales, while also lasting, with high enough audio quality for my music, plenty of features, acceptable battery life, more durable, and even as a bonus had nice appearances, yet both my curiosities and this model not selling anywhere else I'd look any longer; has me looking for different suggestions. I've tried the soundcore life p3i, and as it came close, I did not appreciate the functions as much, and more importantly the quality was actually not as nice comparing to a remaining 2 year old pair of p3 I still owned.

Not tried the A3i. I tried the P3i and didn't like them - way too bassy. The Liberty 4 NC are not quite so bassy, but they're still a bit bloated for my liking. You can hear what they sound like in [this video](https://youtu.be/nA8SzBswW5w), it's a comparison with a load of other earbuds but if you skip to around 28 minutes that's when the sound samples start and the Liberty 4 NC is one of the first ones. In terms of other features etc you have to make compromises with all earbuds in some way TBH. The L4NC are a bit bulky, the call quality is average and transparency mode is mediocre, but the build quality is decent, battery life (without LDAC) is solid, and app experience is good with lots of customisation.

Soundcore P3i and P20i. Good buy, good battery life, effective noise cancellation, app works well on iPhone. Inexpensive enough that there are no tears or rending of clothes if you lose one

I hate that most ANC earbuds today come with those crappy touch "buttons" when im at work, i use gloves so i cant use the touch function. and its annoying when people are trying to talk to me and i cant pause my music. when i use regular earbuds with clickable buttons and my hands are busy, i can usually use my shoulder to tap the button and pause and unpause my music without a second thought. but I just cant find ANC eabuds that have physical buttons anymore. do any of you know any that you can recommend? even if it is an old model from 2019 i can look it up on ebay or mercari. EDIT: A BIT MORE SPECIFIC INFO I need a pair of earbuds with a physical button that i can press by mushing it with my shoulders , since the gloves that i use are thick and i cant take them off every time i need to press the earbuds. I currently use some cheap earbuds with large physical buttons and i can use my shoulder to click the button without an issue. but these headphones do not have ANC, so i am trying to upgrade to a similar set that aditionally has ANC because my work environment is very loud.

yeah, but that wont work for me, i need a large button that i can mush with my shoulder,. the thing is i wear thick gloves, i cant use it while having the gloves on.

Hi, i Actually did find some earbuds with physical buttons that work for my case scenario but arent 100% what i was looking for. as far as price, i totally get you, price was a big concern for me, specially since i need at least 2 pairs so that one can be charging while the other one is in use. so the ones that i found meet my price criteria, which was no more than $40USD. I found these [sony](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BYPFNW6T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1) and [jabra](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BTZKP1TP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1), which are above that price, but which i manage to find used on amazon, for 32 bucks for the jabra, and used on mercari, for 32 bucks for the sony. they have a physical button which might be hard for you to reach on the jabras, given that it is a flat button. but on the sony's it is a bit more round so it sticks out more, also the sony's have a great sound quality (albeit some connection issues) both earbuds have app suppor with equilizer. both have a small case. if you lose them regularly, i recommend going with a pair of sonys, that way you can carry one single case, that charges both sets, you can wear a set, have the other charging, then swap them. just make sure to label them with a metallic marker, or a knife ( i put a tiny white sticker on them to label them) if you cant find them fore the right price, just be patient you'll find a set for around 30-35 bucks. if you look on amazon, ive seen the jabras for 32 but have only seend them in the mid 40s since then. the sonys dont go below 50 used on amazon, but both brands can be found on mercari for 30 to 40 regularly.

Ok, i got them and tested them in-field. here is what i found out: So these are the ONLY earbud recommendations that literally CLICKED ALL THE BOXES i was looking for. they have ANC they have a clickable button that i can mush with my shoulder they are affordable, at a retail price of 35 bucks. then, they have extras that I also like \- they are sold on amazon, so easy returns \- they have great sound \- they have an app \- you can customize the button controls in app. \- you can control equalizer in app. so, out of all the ones that i found, your recommendation was the only one to literally click ALL the boxes. but for my specific case scenario, both the [**Sony WF-C700N**](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BYPFNW6T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1) and [**Jabra Elite 4**](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BTZKP1TP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1) meet my requirements a lot better. the reason is that both of these have ALL the features of the Soundcore, with the only exception being the price. both of these retail close to 70 bucks. but i have purchased multiple of these units used for 35 bucks. so used, they do meet my price range. but on top of that, these have a wayyy better sound quality (the quality on the soundcores is really good, but these are really, really good) then both of these offer a lot punchier base, but most importantly, both of these have a way stronger Active noise cancellation. If i didnt mess with used headphones, the soundcore would be the best choice for me. but since i dont mind buying used headphones, and dealing with the ocassional dud, and the annoying return process. but thanks for your recommendation, you were the only recommendation to literally check all boxes.

Same. Picked up a set from Costco a couple weeks ago. They work awesome. I was using a pair of Anker Life P3s for a while before that, and I found they always shook a little loose while running, I was always fiddling with them. That and they block out ambient sound...

I use the Anker Soundcore P3is (earphones) and q30 and love them. Both have great ANC. The p3i are £50 brand new or £20 second hand and the q30 are £45 on sale on amazon (idk the conversion to euro sorry). The only issue I have with the q30 is that if I’m watching tiktok and I go off the app and back on it makes them really loud. Weirdly this is fixed if my phones on silent. They fit on my ears nicely and have good connectivity. Sadly not shower proof but is rain proof! Sound quality is amazing

The bud style ones avoid wind noise but have smaller batteries so are not really any good for long rides. I put up with wind noise for battery life and use some anger P3 ear buds which are fine.  

Seconding Anker products. I've had the Life P3 earbuds since 2022 and they work great. Im clumsy and have dropped the case with the earbuds inside multiple times and there hasn't been any impact on sound quality or functionality. And, while I don't want to be replacing my tech on a regular basis, the more reasonable price point would make me feel better if I did have to replace them.

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!

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.

I got the anc model and does the job pretty well tbh. Given the price

yes i got them on sale for $35 and theyre excellent and tbh as good as my last pair- i used to have the soundcore ANC ones before (~$110) but wasnt willing spend as much this time

I was honestly surprised by anker soundcore. My wife stole my Buds live so I got her soundcore. They are surprisingly good for their price.

Soundcore by Anker, 100%

I've had a couple of these and they are pretty good for the money

Incorrect. Anker Sound core are a solid choice.

I was skeptical about wireless earbud until I got some. I have a cheap anker soundcore set that I use for podcasts, and the Nothing Ear 1 that has amazing sound.

I've tried many brands (beats, Sony, pixel buds, akg, master and dynamic$$) and I've finally settled on the. Anker Soundcore for me. I use the p40i with the Comply foam tips and I've had no complaints during my calls. Great part is that model of earbud is relatively cheap to stock up on in case you have a habit of misplacing them like I do. My current Pixel is the 8.

I have a cheap pair of Funsound ear buds that I have been wearing everyday for more than 5 years and they still last 6+ hours on a charge and recharge in 30 min in the case. Sadly my $99 Anker Soundcore and $199 Samsung Galaxy buds Pro3 last only a small fraction of that time.

I also have the ones from amazon and I love them so much

I have the soundcore and they are solid... not sure if they are the best of the 3 but won't disappoint you

I have a pair of anker soundcore buds that I’ve been using heavily daily for like 4 ish years now. The battery seems to last nearly as long as it did when new. The sound quality is pretty good for my non technical ears. Had to grab a new pair cause I lost them for a few months but now I have them both and haven’t noticed a decline in the originals at all. I like that they’re decent quality yet affordable to replace.

My Anker Soundcores are surprisingly good. No where near as good as the Airpod Pro 2s that they replaced, but better than expected. - they fall out a lot more - the touch controls are finicky But otherwise quite decent.

I wonder if you just got unlucky with Anker (or I've been lucky)? I've had at least a couple of pairs of their Soundcore earbuds that have worked extremely well for me until I eventually lose them.

i have the Soundcores and i think they are pretty good.

[Soundcore by Anker](https://s.shopee.ph/AA33ARqH2p) Sound quality is good. May ANC na rin siya. Also affordable

just anker soundcore. the best !

For in ear I love my anker sound core. But for battery life, I love my aftershockz conduction. I have an early version. My partner has the fancy waterproof one. 

Anker soundcore. Affordable, great battery life. Excellent adjustable noise canceling.

attention quand même avec nothing. J'ai des buds pro et j'ai du échanger déjà deux fois d'écouteurs car celui de droite se déchargé à vitesse grand v. je me retrouvais avec l'écouteur droit à 10% pendant que le gauche avait 70% de charge. Très souvent j'ai aussi un écouteur qui ne se recharge pas quand je le rentre dans le boitier alors que l'autre s'est rechargé à 100%. Je conseillerais perso des écouteurs anker soundcore.

I got a pair of Soundcore by Anket in Jan. I use them for audiobooks 6-8 hours a day, and have never had a problem with them. Battery life lasts all week for me since I switch out using one bud at a time, but I think they have like 30h of battery if using both. Fast charge. Water resistant, though, not waterproof.

Yeah, I got those for almost 2 years now.

Long battery life is music to my ears - pun intended! Seriously though, I've had some great experiences with Anker's Soundcore earbuds, they last forever! Have you considered checking those out?

soundcore anker earphones talaga

So many commenting Airpods Pro... I have the Pro 2s and Anker Soundcore. Honestly prefer the Soundcore.

Big fan of the Anker Soundcore line 🤙🏼

Anker soundcore earbuds are legit. $20 on amazon and great quality and app

I love my Anker Soundcore earbuds.

anker sound core best earbuds ever . been using for more than a year now still working as the day i bought them

Battery life (number of charges) goes down a lot if you let the charge go below 20%. I recently bought some Anker Soundcore wireless earbuds and they warn you when the charge gets to 20%. Also, charging to 80% improves battery life but I don't think you can control that as the earbuds will charge automatically when they're in the charging case.

If you are on Samsung, any Galaxy buds with be good. Buds 2 pro very well with some Bass emphasis. Buds 3 pro (I have them and love them), might be the best on sound quality. Buds 3 FE great noise cancellation, but missing some features because they are FE, still great. OnePlus buds 4, might be the best overall for the price, no complaints actually for that price. The Huawei are actually pretty good for the price,but like the FE, may miss some features, nothing to worry about. And the Soundcore may be the midd point between all of them, not bad at all, but no the best, the same, no complains at the price.

Don't waste your money on overpriced earbuds. You know what Sony, apple, Samsung Bose, and seinheiser have in common? They are disgustingly overpriced for a technology that is still going nowhere. The only time you use big brands is over ear. Earfun pro 4 Or Anything from soundcore. Will give you the identical features with slightly less noise canceling ability. Which shocker is the #1 thing I personally couldn't give a crap about as long as it's decent

I have the 4. Outstanding. Gives you better than big brand quality on many ways Anker soundcores are good too

Anker soundcore. They’re brilliant for the money. You don’t even need to spend £40. £15/20 and you’ll get a perfectly good pair

I've been using Anker Soundcore since January last year. The sound is good, the earbud is affordable and most importantly, I only need to charge it once a week even though I use it for 7-8hr per day

I was using some Anker Soundcore earbuds but they started connecting while inside the case. Now I'm using Nothing Ear (a) and enjoying them.

I’m on my second pair and they’re outstanding. Good sound, tight fit, and a price that’s unbeatable

I try to avoid the speakers, you will put them too loud and damage your hearing. I was very happy with my Jabra elites, but lost them all. Replaced by anker soundcore buds.

Soundcore from Anker. Mura lang pero goods na.

go for Anker Soundcore or Moondrop on AliExpress. Both brands give great value for the money, and the prices are way cheaper than local shops.

They make earbuds for sleeping. I have Anker Soundcore but there are others. My Bose are a little too bulky to sleep on an airplane so for long flights I will take the soundcore or I also have the Shokz Open Air that work well too because of how they sit but with Shokz, they aren’t noise canceling because you can still hear noises around you.

Apple 2nd Gen with usb-c have been my favorite. Anker Soundcore has good value. Tozo has best battery life are super loud but have pairing issues or if you have multiple of same model

Anker Soundcore good value at that cost

I’ve been using anker soundcore and they are pretty good. Not sure on the model though. Got them on offer on Amazon.

Have a look at Anker Soundcore. I have their buds and they are quite good for what I paid. They also do over ear with active nose cancelling and transparency mode

Another vote for Anker Soundcore. Excellent value for money.

You guys gotta try earbuds from Soundcore by Anker. Best budget buds I've tried and it performs really well, and has a great sound. Great equaliser too.

Anker SoundCore is the best. Fight me!

anker soundcore is good.

If you're on iOS & Apple ecosystem, I love my airpods. But if you're price conscious or don't care about integration features, Anker/SoundCore has always been reliable for me.

I bought some random ones off Amazon based on the reviews. They were only £25 so thought I’d take a punt on them not really expecting them to be as good as people were saying. I also have a pair of Anker Soundcore but find the bass too light. Anyway, they are called Btootos and they are absolutely excellent for the money. They are almost as good as AirPods in terms of sound quality. Not quite but for the money I really don’t think it’s worth paying extra for the AirPods, the difference isn’t that big

Anker Soundcore via BT. Great value

I’ve really enjoyed my anker soundcores. 

I have Soundcore by Anker. Paid about $40. They are super sweat proof, pretty comfortable,sound decent and hold a charge all day.

Had both and imo the airpods are so much better it's not even close. My anker would regularly have connection glitches when walking through busier areas. They also much more regularly fall out, and ultimately they didn't last very long

I've got some jabra elite 7 pro and also several Anker soundcore buds and over ear and never had any issues with any of them across pixel 6a, 7a, 8a and 8 pro.

Buy Anker soundcore buds, they’re available on Lazada. Fraction of the price, just as good, available in white. Very well reviewed and when you inevitably lose one of both or them it’s not the trauma losing an Apple EarPod is.

Same. No complaints at all. More importantly they fit and stick in my ears which EarPods shaped buds don’t.

Have you all looked into replacement tips from Spinfit, Sedna, Azla? Those seem like a good option as they carry lots of sizes and fit the ear better than the standard tips. (I don’t own any, I just saw them recommended on another post in the sub. It looks like SS, then S are the smallest sizes. They all have instructions on how to select your size and model). Also on Amazon there are silicone behind the neck straps that you can fit to any earbud while running/working out and later take them off when you don’t need them. I’m still deciding on a lightweight, compact, good-sounding, earbud under $100 and most of all great fitting for running. I have some Anker Soundcore that fall out of my ear easily with any of the included tips. I also have older Jabra Elite (not the active), which are more comfortable but still not great for running..

Is this the Anker Soundcore? Bought one a year ago and had it replaced for 3x already due to pairing issues.

Sony XM5s are pretty good in terms of isolation but that it ear shape dependent. Sound quality wise, especially for street listening, I'd honestly buy a much cheaper Anker Soundcore or something similar.

Get the soundcores, fantastic value

My Anker soundcores ($50 miracles) were rock solid until December. Now they cut out all the time at the gym in the high quality mode when it gets busy. It matched the December update and when I started to see the new Apple headset marshmallows show up. Could be Apple interference or Google Standard bluetooth incompetence at this point. Very annoying.
