"I struggle to tell the difference between them and "premium" buds that cost 3 or 4 times more, so I just stick with these. ... I auditioned these between Bose QC 2024, Pixel Buds Pro and Sony WF-1000XM5 and I can't really tell the difference. ... certainly not enough to make me pay 4x as much."
"the sound with their HearID test is really good for the money"
"Soundcore A40 are awesome for the price. ... I recently compared them side by side with Bose QC 2024 and Pixel Buds Pro, and I would pick the A40 even if the others were the same price."

"The touch does not work at all if you have any type of hat over your ears or wear gloves. ... The touch has to be skin to device. ... It would be annoying to have to take off a glove and lift the hat up to pause music or change tracks. ... Because of this, these are likely going back for me."
"the touch controls are finicky"
"Only thing is that their touch controls are pretty bad"
Sony WF-C700N might be within your budget. They're very good, too. The Soundcore A40 are excellent though.
r/Earbuds • Best wireless earbuds ->I second this. The earfuns are better at just about everything. The only caveat: the soundcore A40s are better for side sleeping, one of the best.
r/Earbuds • Best wireless earbuds ->I used Soundcore Space A40 extensively before. Ngayon, i have a separate mic and designated the A40 as the work earbuds.
r/buhaydigital • What earphones do you use for meetings? ->If you hate dangling sticks out of ear and like low profile I'd suggest soundcore space A40, music quality is average, but bettery life, ergonomics, charging, ANC is good, since I mostly listen to podcasts I don't care about music as much so for me they are top noch for the price
r/Earbuds • Best wireless earbuds under 100$? ->Soundcore Space A40 or CMF Buds Pro 2. Note the CMF buds DO have battery issues like most Nothing audio products. Its a gamble to get them tbh
r/Earbuds • Need some cheap noise canceling earbuds. ->The anker space ones and the anker a40s if you want ear buds. They are much more affordable than similar options with truly excellent active noise cancellation.
r/aspergirls • What's the best noise cancelling headphones you have tried? ->bluetooth? no bluetooth earbuds will be buy it for life. i like my soundcore space a40, especially for the price lately (sale: $45) but the battery is shot after 2 years. I wear them all day.
r/BuyItForLife • Got a long day of travel and desperately need some earbuds with really good battery life and are very comfortable to wear for long periods at a time ->The Anker Soundcore A40’s are on sale right now on Amazon for under $60. I like them a lot… great noise canceling and the sound with their HearID test is really good for the money (I hate the “stem” style earbuds, so that’s another plus for me).
r/Earbuds • Best wireless earbuds for under 60$? ->I really like the Soundcore Space A40's for a budget pair (usually around $50 or so).
r/Earbuds • "Budget" Earbud Recommendations ->I have both, and I like the Earfuns much better.
r/Earbuds • Under $100 wireless earbuds? ->I’ve had the Space A40s for a while and also think they are good in many ways. The fit/comfort and battery life are great. The sound overall is pretty good. Not as good as my higher end buds, but good for the price.
r/Earbuds • Need help choosing the best wireless earbuds – sound & ANC are top priorities ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
