"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. ... 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"
"superb noise cancellation ... Napaka effective ng NC feature nito"
"That noise-cancelling feature really works"

"I chose r50i nc because of its lower price ... r50i nc is really great for its price."
"Honestly, my Sony wf-1000xm3 were not worth the 10x cost over these."
"sound quality is great for this price."

"Ok it's great I had them playing for more than 6 hrs with ANC and they didn't die ... Soundcore says about 10hrs and I think it's pretty true you can at least get 8 hrs without ANC and with ANC I reckon at least 7 hrs. ... The case can charge UpTo 3 times and combined Anker says 40 hrs of play time which I think is pretty accurate."
"Long-lasting! Swear! Hahaha. Halos everyday ko siyang gamit and once a week ko lang siya need i-charge"
"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"

"they're very light and stay well in my ears. ... I use it literally 18 hours or more a day and I can personally say, they don't hurt my earholes. ... I don't experience "occlusion" with this. ... yeah i don't have that with the R50i NC ... I took a nap with them on this morning actually, i woke up three hours later because the alarm from my laptop went off and was playing on the earbuds. They stayed on even after a 3 hour nap in bed, lying down."
"Fit really well and are comfortable even after 3-4 hrs no irritation and the buds are very light, so no fatigue and stuff."

"Out of the box, the bass is really good, though the mids are a bit (i dont know the right word) muddy or flat or just down there somewhere waiting to be let out. this is where the EQ comes in. ... After I fiddled around with the EQ settings on the app, that's when I finally understood what the youtube reviews meant by "the mids opening up" and other stuff ... 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."
"It's really really really good. ... 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 feel like the R50i NC (or maybe soundcore in general, idk) has an incredibly versatile range when it comes to sound quality ... 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."
"I think this is the highlighting feature the Soundcore app is great, a very good equalizer and plenty of presets are available. ... you can adjust the already given presets. ... you can adjust controls to how you like and you can adjust them individually for each bud. ... There are levels for the ANC like adaptive and you can also adjust it manually from 1-5. ... There is also wind reduction and it works most of the time."

"defective na agad yung right earbud (nagpeplay ng normal yung left pero biglang hihinto yung right tas delayed na siya for 0.5 - 1 second)"
"medyo hassle minsan kapag ayaw mag-connect because of Bluetooth bugs."
"Yung na bili ko na r50i ilang months lang na sira na agad yung pang kanan. Issue na yata talaga ng model nila na yan."

"I tried using 90% volume and Noise canceling ON and got a little bit unhappy because it only lasted for around 4 hours and the battery died. ... The left one died first while the right one showed 10% battery left in the soundcore app."
"Con lang is yong issue niya na unequal battery life, may times na mas mabilis malowbat yong one side. ... in my case the gap is not that big naman, mga 45 mins siguro"
"Sadly my $99 Anker Soundcore ... last only a small fraction of that time."

"But no matter how much I tinker with it I just can't kill the bass. ... for me the bass is overpowering. ... I am not a bass head so might not be the best person to answer this but as far as my limited experience goes they are the most bassiest things my ears have had the pleasure (displeasure) to listen to."
"by default the bass is high and you have to meddle with the EQ to geta more natural sound ... even then it doesn't sound that good."
recently i bought anker r50i (one month ago) so far very great experience
Soundcore r50i If you want peak audio quality
I got a set of Soundcore R50i and almost a year now and they're going good. Got them on sale from Takealot for R299. They don't have ANC though. The ANC model is like R599
Honestly, I haven't noticed any degradation. I use it for gym, then on my lunch break
If you really want a budget one, I'd say goods na si [Soundcore r50i](https://s.shopee.ph/8Uy8mtRVSc). It's pretty much the same battery wise and sound quality with the NC one version difference lng walang transparency and Noise cancelling. Using it, with just the silicone buds, noise cancelling na kaagad sya plus it connects automatically Basta open yung Bluetooth mo. I use it kapag nagbibike and just working out. Super loud ung max volume nya for me and it's really better. The case is already small and compact and can stay in your pocket. Again, if you want something more cheaper than suggested here, it's this one ❤️ and i got this one around 500 with voucher and sale✅ 
Maiba naman, try the Redmi Buds 6 Lite. Ang advantage kasi nito may Google Fast Pair siya which makes connecting to it seamless (open the case, it's connected). Otherwise solid choice rin naman yung R50i NC, medyo hassle minsan kapag ayaw mag-connect because of Bluetooth bugs. This is the one of the reasons I switched to the Redmi Buds 6 coming from a SC Q20i.
I can vouch for the Anker Soundcore R50i NC. Doesn't disappoint
im currently testing out soundcore r50i, bass was unexpectedly compatible with ios maybe you want to consider
Yea I bought them last year they are so good but recently i saw them at a store they were +5000 idk what happened
+1 ako neto solid ang ANC
Gamit mo ngayon soundcore, ok naman sya for everyday use
Ok naman sya, gamit ko ngayon R50 at satisfied naman ako
