P30i by Anker Noise Cancelling Earbuds, Strong and Smart Noise Cancelling, Powerful Bass, 45H Playtime, 2-in-1 Case and Phone Stand, IP54, Wireless Earbuds, Bluetooth 5.4 (Blue)

After spending $1000 in headphones/earbuds in the last 3 years (1 Sony $390, 1 Samsung $350, 1 Google $199), and being disappointed with "cost/benefit" on all 3, I decided to give a shot at this absolutely inexpensive option. But before pressing "buy now" and just purchase it, I decided to do very same work I did when buying the other 3 premium devices, and took my time, reading reviews, educating myself about the company and it's commitment with customers/users, and finally, I went deep into the specs of the hardware, software, and the mobile app (this last one definitely a big plus). At this point you might say: "it's a freaking $30 Bluetooth earbud" just buy, use it, and if doesn't deliver it's promises, then just return it and add another "zero" to the original $30 and buy a premium device. Well, not so fast... I was intrigued by how good it all sounded and I want to use this whole experience to test an assumption I've been carrying for a short while, which is that we've been all scammed and abused with the so called premium priced devices, in other words , if you want the goods, you have to pay much higher price for it. So, I looked into this as an opportunity to unmask my theory and for that I had to put the "works" in place. After blending and filtering all the information gathered (the process even included "unclutter suspicious" reviews), the conclusion was obvious: despite all looking very standard, there was a positively intriguing desire to give it a try, and the result couldn't be more satisfying. Design looks average initially, but it actually reflects a distinct personality with a touch of elegance, specially with the colors available (green was my option and I was not disappointed). The hardware is absolutely underestimated for the price tag, meaning, it has the ability to deliver a sound quality that matches my Sony WH1000 (I listen to audio-music/books/podcasts an average of 6 hours a day) with crystal clear sound nuances, including a sharp treble and a solid bass, and yesssss, a battery life that will get you listening music and talking on the phone for a few days just by a one full charge on the charging case. Call quality... isn't this feature one of the most important components that will drive us towards or far away from a device...Yes!!!! So here it is: Shockingly amazing call quality. They built this right, and the balance between the software and the hardware, is in perfect harmony, 4 mics and AI, cleaning all the "distractions" away from phone conversations, and music listening without any disappointment. And here is the "cherry in the cake: THE MOBILE APP. Again, another well built component of the whole experience. Better than my Sony, Google, and yes, heartbreaking, my Samsung (I'm a big fan of Samsung products). Summarizing, it's not Bluetooth 6.0, not 14mm sound shell, but it's absolutely a shocker of a quality device that only cost me $30, and it gives me peace of mind with call and music-sound quality. Noise Canceling absolutely under your control, through an app designed with everything you need to make it "your way", and satisfy your desire to listen music like a music producer ;) Ps: no one paid me to write this review, and despite the fact that I don't ever right a review, here is one I hope it will add value to your decision.

I’m really impressed with these Soundcore P30i earbuds by Anker. The sound quality is very good for the price, especially the bass. Music, videos, and phone calls all sound clear, and the noise cancelling works better than I expected for earbuds in this price range. The battery life is one of the best parts. They last a long time between charges, and the charging case gives plenty of extra playtime. I also like the case design because it doubles as a small phone stand, which is a clever little feature that actually comes in handy when watching videos. They connect quickly with Bluetooth, feel comfortable in the ears, and the app gives you extra control over the sound settings. The IP54 rating is also nice for everyday use, workouts, or being outside. Overall, these are a great value. They sound good, the noise cancelling is solid, the battery life is strong, and they feel like a more expensive pair of earbuds than they actually are. Definitely worth buying.

These are fantastic little earbuds!! The sound quality is marvelous, I used them all the time at work or laying in bed watching a show on my iPad. I love that you’re able to seamlessly connect two devices at once, so I’m able to connect both my iPad and iPhone at the same time. You can’t play stuff simultaneously lets say you want to watch a video on your phone while you’re watching Netflix on the iPad, you can hit play and it’ll pause what you’re watching on your iPad and start playing the video on your phone! These earbuds are small and lightweight, they come with three different sizes to fit in your ear. I don’t use these often to make calls because I feel like they are slightly lacking in that aspect. Have too many instances of the other person not being able to hear me when I have them in. That said, I purchased these earbuds FOREVER ago, made sure they were fully charged and have not had a need to charge them yet! The battery life cannot be beat! They are definitely a great value. You get a fantastic, affordable pair of ear buds with an amazing battery light. Great buy!

I wish I could give 4.5 stars instead of just 4. I am a loyal Anker customer, and have had several Anker/Soundcore products over the years. I previously purchased the Soundcore by Anker Life A3i Noise Cancelling Wireless Earbuds, which I loved, but they had an issue that caused them to stop working before the warranty ran out and Anker replaced them for me with the Soundcore P30i - their customer service is exceptional and I highly recommend them! However, I *like* my new earbuds, but don’t *love* them. Pros: same awesome battery life, decent color options (matters to me, not everyone cares about this), the noise canceling is nice if I’m outside walking (very windy where I live), easy Bluetooth connection, they fit well in my little bitty ears, work well for phone calls and the sound quality is everything you’d expect from an Anker product, amazing! Cons: no physical buttons & no volume control (big deal for me). I have very sensitive hearing and kids at home, so I used the volume buttons constantly on my old pair. If volume control doesn’t matter to you, then these earbuds are ideal! But I prefer analog buttons over touch based, and not needing to be right next to my phone to change the volume - I walk around the house using these while my phone lives on a shelf. Again, I highly recommend Anker, their products are outstanding and customer service is the best!

Summary: I would definitely recommend. Great sound and a really good value. Update: I lost the case for the earphones. These were an easy choice to buy again. The value is really outstanding. Review: Great value. IMHO it punches above its class. The sound is very good. I generally like quite a bit of bass in my music, and this one came with the bass. I will say that it did sound a little muddy for my tastes, but the app's EQ let me set it exactly how I wanted. I love the fact that the recharging terminals for the earphones are easily accessible. I've have other earphones that are vertical and it is very hard to clean the terminals of that type of earphone case. The app has the ability to change the "gestures". I generally prefer the volume accessible on the earphones. The microphone does a great job on phone calls. *And* it doesn't have that annoying issue some earphones have where the call gets out of sync between ears. The range really surprised me. I've left my phone indoors when working outside and it didn't drop except for the most extreme areas. The earphones fit well in the ear. I can even sleep in them without them being uncomfortable. That was actually surprising to me. I can't really review the ANC since I don't use it much. I can say that it seems to adjust the sound more to the lower sound ranges when enabled. I generally keep it off for battery life. The battery life is as I expected. At first I thought the case was loosing charge quickly, but then I realized the case's light only turns on when removing or putting the earphones in the case. Cons (quite minor): * The "find" tone of the earphones is way too low to hear. When I activate that on some other earphones I can hear it when I'm in the room. This one is so low that you have to be within a foot to hear it. * I wish the case had an actual battery percentage. Or at least would show in the app.

For pure sound quality, I recommend the Moondrop Space Travel TWS Earphone Bluetooth 5.3 Noise Canceling True Wireless Stereo IEMs(Black) over these. They are an off-brand, but popular, semi “in ear monitor” quality earbud. However, these Soundcore P30i are a lot easier to set up, change modes, an use, while not giving up much in terms of everyday music and video quality. Especially when watching tv and movies, you won’t likely notice any difference. So, let’s start with a “strong average” rating for these earbuds. No bad habits. No annoying faults. No weird emphasis on one part of the sound spectrum. How is set up? Well, be prepared for NO pairing button on the case or inside the hood. These enter paring mode automatically the first time you pull them out and remove the little plastic tabs off the charging spots. They will automatically pair with the most recently paired device IF it is on. Otherwise they go into pairing mode. If you really want to move them to another device, please delete from your old device first so you know what’s going on. (No probblem if your phone is stolen and you want to re-pair to your new phone). There is another step that I recommend. Download the Soundcore app. Use it to customize your settings. Especially you need to deal with ANC - activve noise cancelling. Do you want it On, Off, or Automatic? And set up the desired right and left ear “taps” for usual stuff like activating a voice assistant or answering a call. THE AUTOMATIC ON-OFF FOR ANC IS SOMETHING I HAVEN’T SEEN BEFORE. It doesn’t activate in my apartment even when noisy trucks go by. I assume if activates automatically on airplanes, where the engine and airstream noise are constant (other reviewers have flown and confirm this. HOWEVER, given the new menu on the control panel, make sure your earbuds are in Automatic mode; when these first shipped (I have early release and current release firmware versions) they were Automatic only, with no way to “force” ANC as with other ANC earbuds. I think these should ship in Automatic mode, but they seem to ship in ANC-off mode now; use the app to select Auto mode, and to set the taps you want to use to cycle through the three ANC, Normal (silicone tips block some external sounds), and Transparent modes (Transparent uses the mics to relay external sounds through to your ears, as though you don’t have silicone noise blocking tips in the ear canal). Finally, the current firmware adds a chime to the three modes as you cycle through them. I would like to see a set of XL for extra large ear tips. Apple has started doing this. It is a challenge for some earbud designs since the cup holding the tip would need to be larger so the earbuds fit, but then the stem with the charging pads might wobble. Apple and Beats seem to be the only makers with the XL option. With L tips on, I have a good, but not snug, fit. On other earbuds with ANC test modes, I need noticeably snug earbud tips or I don’t bass the onboard ANC test. I intend to keep the app on my device for my next flight and test out Automatic and forced ANC modes and see if there is any difference. Also, to compare to the original Beats (not the later Plus) version) earbuds. I don’t need high fidelity inflight, just enough ANC so I can actually hear dialogue over the cabin roar. Finally, I have a drawer of varioius ANC options. Why did I invest another $30 in these? Disposability plus Anker assurance. In terms of disposability, keep in mind these don’t have a necklace - if one wiggles loose from yawning or eating and rolls away, it’s probably toast. No shrill alarm mode to help find it. Anker assurance? With the exception of a recalled powerbank, Anker has meant solid middle of the field design and reliability. Better audio than pre-Bose Skullcandy, actually comparable to the Solo Buds from Beats, but best value taking into account price, featrures, and quality. Heck, even without noise cancelling I would have bought these. With ANC they are a steal. Then add in the neat built in phone stand, and killer battery capacity for 14 hour flights? No brainer.

Anker Soundcore P30i buds. First and foremost I want to be clear that I am rating these buds purely on their own merit. Without their software, without any Equalizer, just on how they perform straight out of the box. Baseus and Tozo and Jlabs are some of the names when we think of Budget Bass Buds. And for those who are looking for good, clean bass... I'd compare these with Jlabs. For bass, right out of the box, playing music with bass in it, they deliver a clear, audible thump, without the actual pounding vibration. Right now, I'm listening to Cry Little Sister, from the Lost Boys soundtrack, at volume EIGHT. (That's not even halfway up my volume bar from my phone). And the base tune soundstage is really, really good. Especially for a bass tuned base. The vocals, and background vocals are right up front. Crisp, clear, and don't sound like they are being overwhelmed by anything. And I can definitely hear every hit from the bass drums, as well as count the cords on the keyboard. Now I'm at 12, and those bass drums are starting to pound. Other than it's significantly louder, I'm still hearing good clarity of the different ranges. I can't say this for my Tozo T18 Crystal buds, without tuning. My Baseus BP1 pros would be creeping over the midrange at this volume on the base tune. Ok, now I'm at 18. A lot louder than I usually listen to. The highs are much more prominent over the lows. Which is the opposite of how a lot of bass speakers work. Honestly, this kind of division of the ranges from a single driver speaker is kind of surprising, especially at 20 to 25 dollars. Battery life is good too. I have a 10 hour day. 2 hours on the bus, 8 hour shift at work. With the ANC turned on, they need a quick charge at lunch to carry me home. With ANC turned off, yeah, I can get back in the door before they need to be charged. Sometimes just barely, if I've had them cranked up. ANC- on the bus they do pretty good. Cuts down a lot of the engine and sound noise from the bus. I can still hear people talking next to me, but at about half what it would be without the buds in. At work? Well it's so noisy at work even full blown ear muffs aren't making it good. Feel- ok this is subjective, because my right ear canal is different from my left. In my right, I can feel a bit of pressure when I put them in. But once in, they're quite comfortable, and I can fall asleep with them in, as a side-sleeper. Bluetooth is good. Stays connected as long as I'm in range, and range is definitely acceptable. Definitely better than the chap 17 dollar Onn buds I have. Easy to pair also. My only real complaint is no front panel to show the charge on the batteries. All said the bass isn't as deep on the base soundstage as Tozo delivers, but it's cleaner. Tozo also offers much better options in their software, as does Baseus, in some ways. I DO like a lot that SoundCore went the route of making the stems wider, instead of longer. Having long hair, it's less likely to get caught on the stems, and pull them out. Speaking of pulling them out. I decided to do some headbanging. My glasses flew off but these buds didn't budge. Overall though I have no regrets at all, buying these very good sounding set of inexpensive buds.

I’ve been using the Soundcore P30i by Anker Noise Cancelling Earbuds for a few weeks now, and overall I’m really impressed—especially considering the price. First off, the value for money here is excellent. The noise cancelling works surprisingly well for earbuds in this price range, easily cutting down background noise like traffic or chatter. The sound quality is also solid, with clear vocals and a decent amount of bass that makes music and videos enjoyable without sounding muddy. Battery life has been reliable, and they’re comfortable enough to wear for extended periods without any issues. My only real complaint is that the audio occasionally desyncs slightly when watching videos. It’s not constant, but it happens enough to be noticeable, especially when streaming or watching dialogue-heavy content. It’s a bit frustrating, but not a dealbreaker. Overall, these earbuds strike a great balance between affordability and performance. If you’re looking for budget-friendly noise cancelling earbuds that punch above their weight, the P30i is definitely worth considering.

I bought these to replace Pixel Buds Pro and I'm astounded at the quality you get for the price. They connect quickly to the phone, have great noise cancelling and a decent microphone for calls. They fit comfortably and securely in my ear. The only letdown is the touch controls which can be a little clunky and don't always register the taps. However being able to reasign the touch controls (via the app) is a big win. They have good bass and are very clear when listening to podcasts. They fall slightly flat at the top end. Highly recommend these!

Un sonido increíble, relación precio, por lo que pagas es muy poco comparación de la calidad de sonido de estos audífonos, tienen cancelación de ruido y la app funciona muy bien, puedes poner diferentes tipos de modos para ecualizar la música.. Excelente compra no duden

Graves ótimos, boa resolução, carrega rápido, é compatível com iphone e minha tv e tem alcance decente. Eu valorizo muito qualidade sonora e compraria de novo sem pensar, é um bom custo benefício entre concorrentes. Apesar de carregar os fones na base, eu não descobri como ver qual a % de carga da base: o app mostra somente a carga dos fones individualmente, então não sei se tem como. O cancelamento de ruido é bom, uns 82% de 100%. Único defeito é o app que instala no celular, que em 2026 tem cara de 2020: funciona, mas é basicão e sem personalidade. Recomendo a compra? Sim, 100%.

These Soundcore P30i by Anker earphones are quite amazing! They're an absolute steal when I bought two pairs at the sale price €27 a while back, and they're still very good if you purchase them at full price. One reason I finally decided to get some earbuds with a noise cancelling feature was my bad migraines, and this product gave me a chance to test how it could help me without having to spend a lot of money. To my surprise, these earbuds cancel out so much sound that it blew my mind. I can finally get silence when I need it, and I can take walks listening to audiobooks near highways without missing big chunks of what's being said! As many reviews have revealed, the bass is quite heavy by default, but this can be dealt with by using the less bass-y presets, or by creating your own equalizer settings. It's really a non-issue the way I see things. The app comes with a number of surprising features, a big one being the ability to create your own background "noise" mix. I've never seen anything like it in an app! I really hope that these earbuds will stay excellent, and not lose charge and/or audio like some other brands I've tried in the past.

Noise suppression is top tier, sounds quality is perfect i recommend! You don't need to charge it a lot (less than twice a month) Very high quality for its price
