soundcore Life Q30 by Anker, Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones with Multiple Modes, Hi-Res Sound, Custom EQ via App, 50H Playtime, Comfortable Fit, Bluetooth, Multipoint Connection

Pretty good for the price on sale. Solid for my first set of noise cancelling headphones. To be straight forward I just feel like it could have been better with bass and noise leak. As I really want to rock to my new headphones, but in the end with a bit of tweaking in the app it sounds better I guess. And the second caveot is how I'm at 50% or above the volume and it already leaks my music towards all to hear. It ain't as bad, but in a quiet room with few others. I bet they can hear me bobbing to my bops. But the biggest pros that I would give them is they sound good for just 50$, noise cancellation works pretty alright. And quality is definitely there, even tho I just now read on Reddit that some parts are fragile and may be prone to breaking. I really hope not, as they feel solid with good materials and are comfortable. As I have a big head, and the ear cups are just so soft. For the price and quality of the build, I would say they are a worthy pickup. As much as I would like to spend 100-200$ on other brands. These just fits the budget I'm at at the moment, for those movie late nights and morning motivation beats and muse, they will do the job just fine. Plus they are made with Anker, the guys that makes portable power banks, thus far I'm still at 90% battery, which is a bonus. I've wore mines for the whole day, ever since they arrived at t 6am in the morning. Pretty much am well accustomed to them now. Also I like how I can use 2 devices at once with them too. While playing PC games to just doom scrolliing on my phone. Without making too much of a racket, which is very very nice. Overall, good if you're on a budget. But best try to get em on sale. They also seem to have cheaper and more expensive options too of different models.

My son loves these. Were given to him as a present. He was a beats person until these. He says they sound better and are more comfortable. HE also loves the noise cancelling feature and said its comparable to the Bose ones. They connected seamlessly via Bluetooth and using the soundcore app really helps dial in the features and sound. They are stylish and look nice when he his wearing them. The headphones are super flashy and just look nice in black. The controls are intuitive and very easy to use. They have click buttons that are easy to feel when pressed. I put them on and think they sound amazing. This is a really good deal for how good they sound and also how long the battery lasts between charges. They are crystal clear and go pretty loud.

I recently got a roommate, so I needed headphones to listen to audiobooks at home. These are surprisingly comfortable and affordable. I wear them around the house pretty much all day and have no issues with comfort. My only regret is choosing the beige color. I haven’t owned headphones in a long time and didn’t realize how much I’d be wearing them—after about a week, I can already see the beige getting dirty from handling. Sound quality is good for audiobooks (can’t really speak to music). The ear cushions are soft and comfy, though they do feel like they may not last forever. That said, for the price, I think the quality is fair. They definitely have a more plastic feel compared to higher-end headphones—but again, look at the price. I wouldn’t recommend these for work meetings. The microphone sounds a bit echoey. Another minor annoyance is switching between devices. If both phones are connected via Bluetooth, I have to manually turn Bluetooth off on one device to use the other. Overall, very comfortable and great value for casual listening, especially audiobooks.

I bought these in May of 2021, and at first I wasn't sure I'd rate them as highly as I do now. I was a wired earbud person for years, and until these hadn't had good experience with bluetooth headphones. Battery life on these is absolutely excellent. Sound quality is very good especially when you consider the reasonable price. The noise cancelling modes work as advertised, and the control modes are simple to use. My favorite use for these is gaming so I can still hear family talking around me without disturbing them. I can charge these once, use them for travel and on vacation, and return home without recharging. I use them in wired AUX mode to plug into my guitar amp, and the sound quality there is excellent as well. They are just large enough to fully cover my ears, and while the ear cup material does cause a bit of sweat when it's hot, they are otherwise quite comfortable. They stay put when moving around, although I probably wouldn't recommend these for exercise. These have been and continue to be the best set of headphones I've ever owned.

I don’t normally leave Amazon reviews but these headphones are so worth it. I bought them for a trip to Europe (mainly the flights) and the noise cancelling was fantastic- if you’ve never flown with noise cancelling you absolutely should, these are a game changer. It has been a few months since I bought them and the sound is great. Truly, no complaints especially at its price point. Also, I accidentally left them outside for a day, ear pads facing up. It had rained and they were soaking wet by the time I had realized my mistake. Now, I’m not sure if this is a testament to their durability or my cleaning abilities (maybe both?), but after a few days of drying, they work perfectly fine and sound great still. If you don’t want to splurge for the Sony or Bose headphones, absolutely buy these!!

I absolutely love these as a neurodivergent person that wanted their first pair of affordable headphones to help with noise cancellation and decrease overstimulation. Transparency mode is extremely helpful and I can hear almost everything like normal while using it. I really like that I don’t have to take the headphones off or change the setting on my phone just to be able to hear someone. You can just use the feature (have to enable it in the app initially but not again after that) to change modes by “pressing” the right ear cup for a couple seconds or use the preprogrammed button on the left side. For Noise cancellation 10/10 these are amazing. The only sound they won’t cancel out completely in my perspective are really loud noises in close proximity like a professor using a microphone or someone loudly shouting. The volume is reduced though to a comfortable level for those circumstances. I actually cried when I tried the noise canceling for the first time and all of the background noise that bothers me so much every day was just eliminated. My head and neck haven’t hurt at all and I’ve been wearing them for at least 5+ continuous hours a day. I also have a really small head and most earbuds/headphones don’t fit me. These aren’t perfect but do stay on and feel secure as long as I’m not doing any exercise. No issues with Bluetooth pairing so far to both my iPhone and surface laptop. The feel of the headphones while on also doesn’t bother me at all, I actually find it comforting. Sound quality is pretty great. With really heavy bass tracks it can get a little muddy but 90% of the music that isn’t EDM or super bass heavy sounds fantastic. I had no idea music could sound so amazing. If you want affordable headphones that do well with noise cancelling get these 100%.

I struggled with this rating a little bit. I bought these headphones as well as a different brand with the intention of comparing the two. At first I bought that. These felt really nice and really good and they had a good sound. I won't pretend they are a pair of bose but they're not priced like a pair of bose either. So while my initial impression was a good one, I am ultimately disappointed in the fact that both earphones sound like a 1996 Cadillac with subs passing by when any bass plays, it makes it rather unenjoyable and gives it a very cheap sound. I assume that I have an off pair because most of the reviews are spectacular. I will also add that the speakers did not start to sound awful until I tried to use the soundcore app. So I would say that they are worth trying and if you get a pair that are not messed up I think you will be happy with the product that you get for the price. But I would caution you against them if you like heavy bass music. I was just playing random stuff off my phone that YouTube or Spotify picked so I did not have particularly heavy base, but I have no reason to believe they could handle heavy base long-term. Based on my experience. These will get returned and I will actually be keeping the ones that are arguably generic because they don't even have a name but they failed me in no way. I only gave three stars because the initial experience and the packaging was solid.

I don’t usually use over‑ear headphones outdoors, but I took these on a trip to Japan and they ended up being the MVP of my entire setup (aside from my phone). The battery life was 23 hours on my trip back, which totaled about 35 hours including a 4‑hour train ride from Osaka to the Tokyo airport and waking up at 8am. They’re comfortable, the sound quality is excellent, and while the noise cancellation could be a bit stronger, it worked surprisingly well on JR trains and subways. Connectivity never dropped, the microphone quality was solid, they paired instantly every time, and they’re lightweight enough to wear for long stretches. My only complaint is that I wish there were dedicated buttons for skipping tracks. If that feature exists, I never figured it out. Not bad for $60 headphones
