I switched from airpod pros to soundcore V20i for my running. Highly recommend them, and they’re cheap. Decent sound quality (obv not as good as buds), stay in place and can still wear hat and sunglasses and can actually hear your surroundings
r/Marathon_Training • Anyone using open-ear earbuds here? ->There are three brands I like. Anker Soundcore, Jlabs and Skullcandy. They all have headphones and buds that range from $25 to over $100. all three brands are readily available at Target and Walmart. To solve the falling out of ear problem, I use buds with an earhook. The two I use at the moment are the soundcore v20i open ear buds and soundcore life q20+ headphones. The q20+ is a few years old, so they have newer models. Good luck. Hope this helps
r/Earbuds • How do I find wireless earbuds with actually good audio quality? ->The soundcore v20i is what I use for open earbuds.
r/Earbuds • Are there any open earbuds that have clear sound quality while also having good bass? ->They are loud enough to drown out a dish machine and I can still hear my coworkers (whether I want to or not). Decent battery life at least 6 hours at high volume. Great customer service. They are only about $50
r/Earbuds • Are there any open earbuds that have clear sound quality while also having good bass? ->Thirding Anker! Airpods and most free-hanging earbuds just don't want to stay in my head. I have a pair of Anker v20i that are comfortable and sound amazing. There is a newer v30i, but you can still get the v20i for less than $30. Never any problems connecting, and I often switch from phone to desktop and back a few times during the day, depending on the work call.
r/minimalism • What Wireless Earbuds do you recommend? ->I use soundcore v20i. Budget friendly and no issues encountered so far.
r/UKRunners • Best headphones for running? ->Anker v20i are probably like 75% as good as the shokz equivalent but cost only £29-£35 instead of £90-£120. They're pretty much just as comfortable and I like that they can be adjusted instead of being a 1 size "fits all" like shokz stuff. They're mainly just a little bigger and don't get as loud or bassy, but for running those aren't so much of a problem. Shokz are definitely better overall and if recommend them if money isn't a concern, but anyone with lower budgets like OP can find decent cheap alternatives. Can even buy the v20i for running and gym and then another different set with ANC and stuff for £40 and still be cheaper than the 1 shokz pair. This is actually what I do but I use 3 different sets. I've also been a bit annoyed at the shokz brand too since they for some reason used to try and force their own charging connector in all their products instead of USB C so I avoided buying them for years. Coincidentally since the EU mandated USB c by law suddenly they could make usb c work just fine.
r/running • It's time for new earphones, please help with recommendations ->Co-sign! I use the V20i and I am happier than I’ve ever been with anything in-ear. I listen to books or podcasts *all* day and I’ve had no problems with ear fatigue or with the battery. I have never had in-earbuds that were small enough. I had gone with hook-style (loved my Powerbeats), but then I discovered open-ear. I tried and returned five pair of open-earbuds before settling on the V20i… the first ones I tried!
r/Earbuds • Comfortable earbuds for small ears? ->I love , love, love my Soundcore v20i. I didn’t need extra features so was happy to save $40ish USD.
r/Earbuds • workout/running earbuds - tiny ears. ->Soundcore's v20I and v30i are both good.
r/Earbuds • Best Budget Open Ear earbuds under $60? ->I've been using these for the last couple of months. They are cheap, sound decent (better than bone conduction at least), and don't cover your ear. I can hear everything around me. Nice build quality for the price too. Highly recommend.

r/bicycling • I promise I'm not that guy (small BT speaker vs bone conductor headphones) ->I been using the soundcore v20i. Soundcore has a really good app. When it comes to the v20i. The battery life is great on the buds. With the case I get 3 charges out of it. The battery life on the buds last like a while
r/Earbuds • Best open ear earbuds for work/running ->I been using the soundcore v20i open ear buds for things like biking or when I go to a them park like Disney world for example. There battery life is good.
r/Earbuds • First time using open-ear earbuds today, love them ->I have 2 I use. Soundcore space a40 and for walking and doing outside things I use the soundcore v20i.
r/Earbuds • What’s everyone’s daily driver true wireless earbuds ->I been looking at those as well. Those seem to be good. When it comes to soundcore. I have the v20i , space a40 and q30. I think the stand out feature is the waterproof rating and battery life.
r/Earbuds • With Jabra gone what are the next best waterproof IPX6-8 level earbuds for shower? ->Personally I have a few I switch to for a few reasons . Soundcore space a40 for daily use between my phone and computer. I also have the soundcore v20i for biking. But I'm considering the sound core x20 for the ip68 rating.
r/Earbuds • What is the Best Budget Earbuds to Buy Now? ->Hey everyone, I'm looking for earbuds specifically for when I go walking with my dog. I tend to leave one in at a time but depending on which side he walks I switch the side I listen to music. The only specifics I genuinely need are: ●Able to change music from either side (if left earbud is in solo then it can go skip songs back or forwards same for the right hand side) ●Able to quickly change whatever side I put an earbud (no hook or loops they tend to be awkward for me to remove with a lead it my hand walking) ●A rough budget estimate of £60 *Pink or purple ones would be a nice bonus but colour overall does not bother me Ta muchly in advance Update: I went with SusieQtoyou's recommendation of the Soundcore V20i purely for the prospective of customising my layout or buttons whilst having a good idea of my surroundings and because they were well within budget with a sale also on Amazon at time of writing making them £29.97.I also ordered a set of the soundcore A20i to stand in purely as my indoor earphones only for a nice cool £19.98 to replace my Belkins that are my workhorse set of earbuds for dog walking and indoor listening but are showing some signs of wear an tear finally. If I remember I'll be sure to give a brief review of em both between when I get them and some point in the year, if my memory reminds me Keep sending any recommendations in, I'm so down for trying new ones in the future. Update numero zwei: Holy crap SusieQtoyou's you are one hell of a legend, both the V20i and A20i are absolutely perfect, the V20i are legit the perfect earphones I've ever had for dog walking and being out in public in general with the ability to have both sides in listening to music whilst are same time I've been able to keep a focus on not just my surroundings but also having casual conversations with minimal hearing difficulties And the A20i are the best earphones for when I want to blast music or watch YouTube vids without it being to loud for my mum when she's watching TV. Also super bonus I've never head banged with earphones this hard besides with these soundcores, they stick to me like glue even when I'm in a metal mood and I'm headbanging for a good hour.
r/Earbuds • Earbuds for dog walking ->No doubt, SoundPEATS PearlClip Pro r gud. U can also check JLab JBuds Open Sport or Soundcore V20i both r gud, way better fit than OpenJump n grt gym buddies
r/Earbuds • Best open earbuds for gym 50-70 USD range ->Soundcore’s V20i open ear buds are great! Around $40 when there isn’t a coupon on Amazon. I have mine on all day when I’m working. You can program each earbud in their app to do various things (volume, play/pause, etc.).
r/Earbuds • Earbuds for dog walking ->I second the Soundcore brand. I own AirPod Pros 2 and AirPod 4 (ANC) but I prefer to wear the Soundcore V20i open ear buds with an 8 hour battery life. The black ones are on sale for just under $29. I’ve tried all their other open ear models and I returned them because they weren’t as comfortable for me. I forget I’m wearing these! I do also have the P40i in-ear earbuds and they are good too. I also have the over-ear Q20i headphones. I’m not an audiophile. I mostly listen to podcasts, watch videos, and I’m in a lot of Teams meetings. The V20i have the multidevice feature where you can connect to two devices at the same time, so I can be connected to my phone and laptop at the same time. Edit: I own two pairs of the V20i. My second set is connected to my phone and tablet. I have different color silicone cases so that I know which set I’m grabbing. (Black for “work” and white for “home”.)
r/Earbuds • Earbuds for iPhone - not AirPods ->Soundcore V20i for me. Stay in place really nicely. Open-ear design so no loss of concentration to what's going on around you and for podcasts and ebooks that I listen to when I run, they sound very good.
r/running • What earbuds do you use while running? ->I have a pair of Soundcore V20i's and they have been faultless so far. The sound is good (I do listen mostly to podcasts though), size and fit is great and they genuinely disappear on the ear. I've had several pairs of Soundcore C30s as well and I absolutely loved the fit, they worked really well on my ears. The reason I had several pairs though was because I had two separate pairs warrantied and then got my money back after the third pair also failed on me. One of the earbuds would stop connecting to the charging box and therefore wouldn't charge or turn on when taking out so wouldn't connect to my phone to use.
r/trailrunning • Recent open ear earbuds experiences and suggestions? ->I use sound core v20i, they are £30 on Amazon and we're fine for the marathon. Even took a soaking from some hose pipes
r/Marathon_Training • Headphones & In Ears for marathon running ->Soundcore open ear have been great, can't really go wrong with Shokz either
r/running • What earbuds do you use while running? ->Take a look at Anker Soundcore lineup, some of them like 20 series can be found with discount and coupons for $10-15.
r/Aliexpress • Any good cheap earbuds on aliexpress? ->I bought the soundcore open ear buds (so no band) and really like them, especially for the price compared to Shokz! From my research, sound quality with open ear/bone conduction will never be as good as traditional buds, so I went with a cheaper option and am very happy with them!
r/XXRunning • Shockz OpenFit earbuds? ->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.
r/S22Ultra • Seeking best earbuds for cancelling noise - what is your pick? ->I've had a couple of these and they are pretty good for the money
r/UKFrugal • best budget earbuds? ->Incorrect. Anker Sound core are a solid choice.
r/UKFrugal • best budget earbuds? ->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.
r/MotoG • Which wireless earbuds are you using for the Moto G Stylus, 2024? ->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.
r/BuyItForLife • Looking for Bluetooth Earbuds (android phone). ->I have the soundcore and they are solid... not sure if they are the best of the 3 but won't disappoint you
r/Earbuds • Which one has the best microphone for call? I don't listen to music much ->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.
r/BuyItForLife • Need a reliable pair of earbuds that won't die on me. ->I had a pair, didn't rate the sound and they stuck out of my ears like little dildo clit ticklers. Better build quality than airpods though. All my power banks are anker as is my work conference headset. In the interest of transparency I daily an iPhone and the airpods just work better.
r/BuyItForLife • Recommendation for Earbuds ->Try Anker soundcore range earphone or headphone .they are not that expensive but sound very good and also battery last so long that you can't believe.
r/samsunggalaxy • Earphone recommendations ->[Soundcore by Anker](https://s.shopee.ph/AA33ARqH2p) Sound quality is good. May ANC na rin siya. Also affordable
r/Tech_Philippines • Please recommend me some good wireless earphones ->I lost one of my AirPods so I’m currently trying out some “Soundcore” Bluetooth earbuds, which are made by Anker. Got em for $20. They’re not as nice as the AirPods but they’re good enough to do the job lol.
r/BuyItForLife • Recommendation for Earbuds ->Anker soundcore. Affordable, great battery life. Excellent adjustable noise canceling.
r/martialarts • Earbuds that stay in my ears when working a heavy bag ->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.
r/BuyItForLife • Looking for Bluetooth Earbuds (android phone). ->Yeah, I got those for almost 2 years now.
r/Thailand • Mr. DIY wireless earbuds for iPhone ->soundcore anker earphones talaga
r/Tech_Philippines • Recommended bluetooth earphone ->anker sound core best earbuds ever . been using for more than a year now still working as the day i bought them
r/PakGamers • Best earbuds under 6000 rupees ->Anker Soundcore are good
r/oneplus • Best wireless earbuds to go with the oneplus 12? ->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
r/Earbuds • Earbuds recommendation which don't hurt helicis crus ->I have the 4. Outstanding. Gives you better than big brand quality on many ways Anker soundcores are good too
r/Earbuds • Earbuds recommendation which don't hurt helicis crus ->I reallyyyyy love soundcore anker any of them
r/malaysians • Looking for ANC Wireless Earbuds, Budget RM600 below ->Bro its so underrated here. Tried airpod either same or… tak best sangat compared to soundcore 🤣🤣
r/malaysians • Looking for ANC Wireless Earbuds, Budget RM600 below ->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
r/UKFrugal • best budget earbuds? ->I've had a pair of Soundcore (Anker brand, I believe) for several years now and have upgraded with other Soundcores since. All of them still work well and I rotate them as they need charging. I only bought multiple because I tend to be hard on my earbuds (working out, jogging, even sleeping) but they've held up longer than I expected.
r/BuyItForLife • Recommendation for Earbuds ->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.
r/audible • What earbuds do you use? ->Soundcore from Anker. Mura lang pero goods na.
r/AskPH • what's the best wireless headset with good microphone u know? ->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
r/Earbuds • Best earbuds for iPhone? ->Anker Soundcore good value at that cost
r/Earbuds • Best Earbuds you can purchase on amazon under $150? ->I’ve been using anker soundcore and they are pretty good. Not sure on the model though. Got them on offer on Amazon.
r/UKFrugal • best budget earbuds? ->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
r/HeadphoneAdvice • Best wireless earbuds for ~£50 ->Another vote for Anker Soundcore. Excellent value for money.
r/UKFrugal • best budget earbuds? ->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.
r/Earbuds • I analyzed Reddit for the 20 most recommended wireless earbuds in the past year ->anker soundcore is good.
r/Tech_Philippines • Recommended bluetooth earphone ->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.
r/audible • What earbuds do you use? ->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
r/UKFrugal • best budget earbuds? ->I’ve really enjoyed my anker soundcores.
r/Marathon_Training • Best running earbuds ->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.
r/GooglePixel • Earbuds that work with google pixel 7pro ->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.
r/Thailand • Mr. DIY wireless earbuds for iPhone ->Same. No complaints at all. More importantly they fit and stick in my ears which EarPods shaped buds don’t.
r/Thailand • Mr. DIY wireless earbuds for iPhone ->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..
r/Earbuds • What are the best earbuds for running? ->Is this the Anker Soundcore? Bought one a year ago and had it replaced for 3x already due to pairing issues.
r/Earbuds • A tier tws earbuds with best warranty? Third party insurance? Cost of battery replacement in or out of warranty? ->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.
