"I do use my $30 sound core open ears for the office and around the house but needed cheap anc buds for short flights where I don't want to carry my over the ears."
"But i can still hear the sounds around me, like the tv or someone else's phone on speaker, but it dulls out the outside sound enough. ... Others might prefer a better sound cancelling earbud though."
"Will give you the identical features with slightly less noise canceling ability."

pepperdean 0.0I love my soundcore open buds.
Doodoo_brain_lover 0.0I 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!
JeepRumbler 0.0Soundcore open ear have been great, can't really go wrong with Shokz either
patelvp 0.0Agree on their pricing. I love my soundcore buds but battery life had dropped off too. I do use my $30 sound core open ears for the office and around the house but needed cheap anc buds for short flights where I don't want to carry my over the ears. I do love the wings on the liberty pro 3 buds tho, really comfy.

aLittleRoom4dStars 0.0Yes. As a brand and their prices, good entry brand sila of you enter the rabbit hole of being an...audiophile. If for Spotify and streaming movies, goods na yan.
All_Bets_Are_Off_ 0.0I was honestly surprised by anker soundcore. My wife stole my Buds live so I got her soundcore. They are surprisingly good for their price.
