"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."
"Only thing is that their touch controls are pretty bad"
"wish the buds were more touch responsive"

"the battery is shot after 2 years."
"Sadly my $99 Anker Soundcore ... last only a small fraction of that time."
"which is slowly diminishing"
0ldGoat 1.0Sony WF-C700N might be within your budget. They're very good, too. The Soundcore A40 are excellent though.
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.
3rdworldjesus 1.0I used Soundcore Space A40 extensively before. Ngayon, i have a separate mic and designated the A40 as the work earbuds.
AbjectTutor2093 1.0If 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
Additional-Low-69 1.0Try the Space A40. About $60 but longer battery and smaller so you can side sleep. Tons of features.
Affectionate_Try_836 1.0Soundcore 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
AhRealMonstar 1.0The 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.
airsign 1.0bluetooth? 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.
alexblablabla1123 1.0I have the A40 for more than a year. Works fine and ANC is good. I do try to limit my wear time since I already wear earplugs for sleep.... But I WFH with a baby... Honestly from looking at reviews it seems ANC doesn't work much against baby cries... mostly from passive isolation
aljustiet 1.0battery is shit after 2 years. Dies after maximum after 2 hours.
AlsoARobot 1.0The 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).
