These ones from soundcore. They’re so fing good: soundcore P31i by Anker,... https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0FNWFXG2W?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
So freaking quick. I can ‘forget this device’ and within 15-30 seconds be reconnected with them. Only issue I’ve had (with pausing if my phone is off) has been if I’m connected to another pair of Bluetooth headphones/earbuds at the same time. They also have an app for them as well for all your controls and even live translation. For the price you seriously can not go wrong
I got mine yesterday so I only had them for less than a day. I agree - one of the best if not the best for earbuds under $50. Nice and comfortable. ANC is not amazing but it is good for the price. I really enjoy the sound so far. Biggest disappointment is the “limited-time free” on translation. Soundcore needs to make it clear that this a free trial not a feature.
Just got these myself. Love the long battery life and sound quality. Still gathering data on how others hear me while I’m near all the belts, but seems like they can hear me okay Great quality and even better price (paid $46 with tax)
Quite happy with my anker soundcore p31i. Got them in sale for 50 bucks in amazon
I'd pay a few dollars more for the p31i. I own both and the new model is definitely an upgrade in multiple ways.
Sound, battery life, the noise cancellation is better, the app is way better. It's an upgrade to already good budget headphones. The app now has a ear seal test, an equalizer tuner that customizes it based on your audio preferences, like a sound test. A lot more customizability.
If you can stretch your budget a bit, the P31i gets you LDAC, Spatial Audio, and Bluetooth 6.1 instead of 5.4. Soundcore has an 18 month warranty, and a history of honoring it. Baseus has a 2 year warranty, but I haven’t heard what it’s like working with them for repairs.
