It’s a very comfortable pair of earbuds with excellent battery life, energetic sound, and acceptable noise cancellation. A great option for everyday use and long working hours. I work more than eight hours a day, and the battery easily lasts all day.

I been using Anker products for awhile now these are the best earbuds on the market if yall want good sound deep bass good anc with out breaking the bank it last on a single charge for one month 192 hrs with anc off still have amazing battery life with anc on for 165 hrs

It is a very good product if you need budget headphones that very good battery life and that can charge your phone if you’re in a pinch.

These earbuds are seriously the best I've ever bought, hands down. They are so incredibly convenient to use every single day. The sound quality is absolutely fantastic, making music and podcasts a joy to listen to. And the battery life? It's truly excellent, lasting me for ages between charges. The incorporated phone stand and power bank, so useful. I've already told so many friends about them. If you're looking for new earbuds, you absolutely have to get these. I honestly can't recommend them enough. You won't regret this purchase, I promise.

Awesome sound, great quality,own app for the price is unbeatable ...

"These headphones are very functional and convenient."

Soundcore - by Anker P41i Bluetooth Wireless In Ear Earbuds with Portable USB-C 3,000mAh Summary: Amazing multi-functional earbuds. Period. Use: I needed replacement earbuds for my older Sony ones. The Anker brand is a trusted one in our home as we have several of their charging/battery products. Since we were on a budget for these working earbuds (i.e. used for/ at work) we needed something that wasn't too hard on the wallet. These Soundcore earbuds by Anker are budget friendly, but that doesn't mean they're budget products. The sound on these is surprisingly rich with a good balance of high and lows. These rival the old Sony and even a set of Bose earbuds. The noise cancellation is amazing and works very well. The case seems big, but when you remember that that's due to the fact the carrying case is also a 3,000 mAh USB-C battery charger. The earbuds come with an array of sizes for the earbud inserts ensuring you'll find a great fit. The units are easy on the ears and you won't feel the soreness some units can leave behind while wearing them for hours/all day. The little display shows you the charge level on the case and the charge level of each earbud. Not 100% necessary, but certainly nice to have. The earbuds themselves can maintain a charge for a very long time in between uses because the battery/case is so large. We have had these a full week and haven't had to plug the case to recharge since use. It can be used as a power bank and can charge your phone and other USB-C accessories. Speaking of USB-C, the cord itself is multi-use and serves as the case's loop to be used when holding or securing to a personal item like a purse, backpack, etc. The big surprise for this product is the Soundcore iOS app for these earbuds. The app allows for real-time translation between languages with a simple and easy to use interface. You can have the ear buds pick up what is said as its being said (no pausing or waiting for speech input and processing), and on-screen the text is translated into your target language (in our case English) as words are spoken. This is awesome because we work in a multi-lingual workplace and now we have removed one additional barrier. Pros: * Sleek looks. Considering it is a pair earplugs with a 3,000mAh battery, the unit looks pretty nice. The use of the charging cord as a securty loop - brilliant. * Battery. The unit serving as a real charging device for smaller devices, or one-time emergency charge for a phone is really convenient. * Long life. The earbuds have a great daytime use run time. They charge quickly and only minimally draw charge from the powerbank case itself when stowed. * Live translate. The app and its real-time translation capabilities are fast and function extremely well - performing better than in-built iOS translator. * Sound quality. We expected the sound quality to suffer for a product at this price point and feature set - but while it won't score high points for audiophiles, it will be perfectly acceptable for people that are doing stuff while listening to music, taking calls, or using live-translations. The noise cancellation works extremely well and contribute to the units sound richness. Cons: * Size. The unit is a bit larger than some competing earbud cases for a big reason - the 3,000 mAh charging bank/charger. Not a deal breaker. The charging cable/ security loop make it easy to carry the unit with you where ever you need without it being that much of an imposition. If you're looking for "budget friendly" earplugs, STOP. These are them and so much more. Well done, Anker. You've done our family a solid and we'll continue to watch your product portfolio.

I have a love/hate relationship with wireless earbuds. I've used all kinds from all different brands - AirPods Pro, Pixel Buds 2a, some Sony ones with a name no one could remember. They're convenient and inconvenient. They sound good, but not as good as I'd like. Especially for the cost. For the price point of these wireless earbuds, however, I am thoroughly impressed. Comfort: I like to take walks. I don't do a lot of vigorous exercise, so I can't say whether these would stay properly in my ear while I'm doing acrobatics or something, but for walking, looking at the scenery, stretching my muscles, these are exceptionally comfortable. Most earbuds I use start to get uncomfortable after half an hour, but I was wearing these for two hours straight and could have kept going when I took them out. I only removed them because I needed to do something else. Multiple sizes of ear tips are included, of course, so you can test which ones feel best for you. I, personally, use the small ones, but there are sizes stretching the whole gamut from extra small to extra large. You could almost certainly find a way to make these earbuds work well for your ears. Sound Quality: I think these are some excellent sounding earbuds, especially for the cost. As far as an apples to apples comparison goes, I can't tell much difference between these and the first iteration of AirPods Pro. Of course, I haven't listened to those in quite some time, but even so, I was immediately wowed by how these sound. The bass is certainly a little exaggerated (you can adjust the exact audio settings to your preferences, though), but the treble range sounds fantastic, too. The mids have a little bit of a tendency to get drowned out by the bass in particular, but I'm certain I could fix that if I did enough finagling in the settings. These are lovely sounding earbuds. The microphone quality, I was told, is good, as well. I don't have a way to really verify, but the people I spoke to over the phone using these said that I sounded crisp and clear. Definitely more than I can say for some other buds I've used! Features: There's a lot of different features with these, and because of that, the ones that are missing make it feel somewhat strange. For one, there's one of the major selling points, which is that the case doubles as a power bank. It's straightforward - you plug it into a phone or tablet or some such, and it will charge that device, as long as it charges over USB C. I think this is a fantastic feature, but I'll get more into it in the battery life section. But as far as them missing ones that make using them feel strange, here's what I mean - on these earbuds, you have touch controls. You can pause, unpause, skip, rewind, increase or decrease the volume, activate a system assistant like Siri, or change the noise cancelling mode. The noise cancelling works amazingly. You also have audio transparency, where it will play the sounds of the outside world directly into your ear so you know what's going on around you, and you can have it simply playing the music; no noise cancelling or audio transparency at all. You have a feature-rich application you can install where you can have it do real time translation for you, or you can change the audio profile of the earbuds, or you can change what the individual touch controls do on each individual earbud, among many other things. These are features you tend to find on much more expensive earbuds, in my experience. Not common to have most of these on earbuds below $100 at all. They're so packed with awesome features that I was a little surprised when I took the earbuds out, and the music continued playing. Most earbuds that have this level of sound quality and this many well-implemented features will have a feature where the music pauses when you take one or both earbuds out, so it confused me for a moment. Now, this isn't meant to be an insult at all. In fact, I'm trying to get across that I was subconsciously convinced that these $50 earbuds were, in fact, much more expensive than they are. It's fantastic. Battery Life: This is where things get a little weird. As I said, I've used these on walks that tend to last between 1 and 2 hours. I will usually wear them for a while after I've made it home, too, maybe an extra half an hour. The lowest I've seen the earbuds themselves drop to is about 80%. I don't know exactly what the claimed battery life on these is, but I feel I could reasonably expect them to go for 6-8 hours or more and still have battery to spare. It's awesome. What's weird is the case. Now, it's listed as 3000mAh. That's about the same size as an iPhone 6 Plus battery, or many, many other phones over the years. But somehow it feels like the battery life in the case is kind of small. After charging the earbuds from ~80% to completely full, it drops 5-10%. After charging my phone up about 7%, it drops 20-30%. I have a Google Pixel 10, whose battery is a bit less than 5000mAh. It lasts two days or more without a charge. It's a little odd to me how quickly the case's battery life drops. Is it a deal breaker? No, absolutely not. Especially when they specifically mention in the listing that it will charge certain phones UP TO 55%. It's not meant to be some massive, week-long brick to power your energy guzzling devices. It's more meant as a backup if you get lost and are running low on phone battery or something. It's great that the charger is built into the case, too. Conclusion: These are lovely earbuds. Much, much better than I'd expected. I think the average person would be extremely happy to have wireless earbuds like these, unless they're a brand snob and won't settle for less than AirPods Pro 2. You can't go wrong with these - they're comfortable, feature-rich, have excellent battery life, as well as fantastic sound. Not to mention a case that can also charge your phone. How have I never seen another company do that before? That's genuinely so cool! If you're on the fence, I'd highly recommend giving these a try. I will mention the app slaps you in the face when you open it for the first time about all their AI features. I utterly despise AI and everything it stands for with all my heart, so it had me worried at first. They don't force it down your throat, but I'm disappointed it's there at all. That's the only negative thing I would impart about them.

The quality of the soundcore by Ankur is really surprising. It has a great build and one thing I like the most is the charging case. It works as a versatile device that you can charge your phone and also it’s a phone holder although you can use that only in landscape mode but that’s good to have on the earbud case. Also have noise cancellation and there are multiple modes of noise, cancellation, and there is a whole library of it outdoor indoor, wind noise reduction, and also a custom level of noise cancellation, which was a surprise to me and I thought that the noise cancellation is not there. as soon as you open the case, the battery level tells you the remaining battery. The soundcore comes with a plenty of tips that you can adjust Based on your ear canal. It works best with the soundcore app and the app is the main power house. It offers so much things that I was blown away. for example, the real time translation of different languages, and that was remarkable in today’s world when there are so many people speaking, sometimes a different language here in USA that you do not know, simply turn on the real time translation and use it. I tried it with one of the language and it seems to works pretty well. there are different equalizer settings for different environment and there is a whole library of soundcore White Noise. The earbud also offers a hearing test kind of thing, it’s not a medical hearing test, but what it does basically it adjust the frequency of the sound based on your hearing capacity so that you can enjoy the music as the optimal frequency not missing any beat or tone. The sound quality is very good and I am impressed. The bass are rich and tribble are good mids are OK and highs are well balanced. The one thing I liked the most about these is the charging case because you can charge your phone in need and that’s really a great handy powerbank feature. Overall, in a small package, this earbuds offer so much and that too in a well balanced way that it doesn’t seems like things are half baked and they are overdone; no, not at all. I really like it and I do recommend it.

These aren't the most streamlined tech possible, but I’ve found that I really value the utility this set offers. The standout feature for me is definitely the battery life. They seem to last forever, and I rarely find myself worried about them dying mid-task. When they do need a charge, the case handles it quickly. The case is larger than what you’d get with most other brands, but it earns that extra space. It has a clear LED readout that shows the exact battery percentage, which is much better than trying to guess based on a single blinking light. Plus, it can actually act as a backup battery for my phone in a pinch. For an everyday carry, that kind of overlap is a huge benefit. I also have to mention the microphone quality. I’ve had several people tell me that I sound very clear during calls. That’s usually a weak point for these kinds of earbuds, so it’s a relief to not have to switch to my phone handset just to be understood. On the software side, the app is fine, but it’s nothing special. It’s the kind of thing you use once to set up your preferences and then largely ignore. I did have a little trouble getting the tap actions configured exactly how I wanted them—the interface wasn't immediately intuitive—but I got it figured out after a few minutes of trial and error. The only real downside I’ve found is the fit. I’ve tried several of the different silicone ear tip sizes, and I haven't been able to get a seal that feels completely secure or airtight. For standard daily use, it’s not a dealbreaker, but it does mean they don’t provide enough isolation for noisy environments. I definitely wouldn't rely on these for a flight; I’d still need a dedicated pair of noise-canceling headphones for that.

The Sound - Deeeep Bass with true feel. I even tried a little ASMR with it lol. You will definitely get that true immersive experience when working out. The noise canceling truly cancels so be careful when u go out on walks, but with these, I prefer the gym based on that. The Appearance - Very Aesthetic in the ear. The stem lays flat which gives it that future modern look, meaning no poking out. They fit just right, with little adjusting. The Multitasker - Need to charge your phone? No problem. You need a stand to hold your phone? No problem! It’s like carrying a little battery case when needed. The charger cord is attached already but looks like a strap but it’s the actual usb-C cord. No worries with it getting twisted, it tucks away safely. The Battery - As advertised! You can easily charge the case and buds with any usb-c. This was very unique creation and it just adds to availability and convenience in the technical world. It’s not heavy to carry at all might I add. Great range and it connected to my iPhone with no problem.

I got this set of headphones to replace my wife's travel headphones. I have several Anker products, mainly chaeging bricks, a power unit station, and power packs, so I figured these should be good. Generally the products are well built and gave us no problems. Generally she keeps a battery pack and headphones in her small purse, and when I saw this set up, I figured it was a perfect match. One unit to do both things. The case is taller than her old headphone case slightly, but length and width smaller than the battery pack she used to carry (which was listed at 10000mah, but I doubted it's accuracy). This has a 3000mah battery built in so you can in theory listen to these earbuds for like 160 hours, or easily charge your phone or other electronic device with a usb-c port (cord built in). I have a late model samsung phone and this gets 30% charge in like 30 minutes, pretty quickly. The wife has a newer iPhone, and it does the same. This feature alone is well worth the purchase, earbuds, and battery pack combo. How do these sound? Fantastic. For the price point, these are unbeatable in functionality and sounds. The app set up very easy, these have active noise cancellation that works ok. The thing that got me by surprise is the customizable equilizer. Several more expensive brands do not have this, just presents to what they think you need. You can go in an manually adjust 8 frequency ranges, or let the computer customize it (using the Hear lD). I thought it was a bit of a gimmick, but when I did the automated set up, then did the manual set up, my settings curve was nearly identical to what it had set me at. The one thing that I will have to tweak is you need to do the computer set up in a very quite place, and my area was quite, like around 25 to 30db if found in background, but I could have searched for a more quiet spot. I had only seen a feature like this in a way more expensive set I got about a year to year and a half ago, and I did not think it was as good as this set up. It nailed it first try and was super easy to use. You can customize the touch buttons for 1, 2, or 3 taps on both right and left, and also a long hold setting. Again, several much more expensive products don't do this, and it really impresses me that they did that here. This company makes a few more pairs that are more expensive than this, and I'm sure the anc may be a bit better, and the seal and fit may be better (though these are comfortable and fit good), but I would halt many people looking at those to look at these here. The functionality on this and performance, it meets a sweet spot without breaking the bank. 5 stars, highly reccomended.

For yourself or someone that travels often! I picked this up because of the features it offers- I thought the noise canceling would help cancel out the jet engine noise on flights while the neat phone stand feature would let me sit it on the fold down tray table to watch an in-flight movie. And the emergency power bank feature has a 3000 mAh capacity which can bring my nearly dead iPhone back to about 50% charged. I hadn’t seen all these features in one device before. My next flight isn’t booked until the middle of March so i look forward to trying it out then! I did not know that Anker had a division that produced earbuds, headphones, sound glasses, and speakers, I only knew the Anker brand for phone chargers, charge cables, and power banks but they’ve been making audio gear since 2014 according to their website. It comes in a pocket sized case, measuring about 3” x 2 3/8” x 1 3/16” that has a screen to show you how much charge remains in the case and each ear bud. There’s a single button on the side to reset the device. There is a usb-c port on the back to recharge the case but no cord or charger is included. The code from the power bank to your device is a usb-c and I tried it with a usb-c to Lightning adapter and it worked fine with my older iPhone. Definitely use the soundcore app after pairing to do the fit test first before adjusting anything. I thought the noise canceling was ineffective and the audio quality was a little thin until I used the fit test. I needed to go up one size on the left and two sizes on the right ear tips to get a good seal. (my ear canals aren’t the same size). Now the noise canceling works well and the sound quality is not so thin. While you’re in the app you can check out the language translation features. My youngest son is a first year French student so I enlisted him to help with trying that out. We had better luck using the Face to Face mode than the Real Time translation. I could not get the earbuds to work in Face to Face mode though, all the sound came through the phone’s speaker and both languages were displayed on the phone’s screen. In Real Time mode the earbuds worked but only the English audio came through not the French. I might be doing something wrong, I don’t know. Part of the translation issue might be that his pronunciation may not be 100% spot on since he’s only just learning the language. I did try the translator with the phone’s wifi off and airplane mode on, it did not work without a network connection. I left wifi off and took it out of airplane mode and then it would work so if you’re planning to use it overseas make sure you’ll at least have a cell phone network connection available. There is a contextual learning option in the app also where you can learn or use commonly spoken phrases that are separated by the settings where they might be used. Pretty neat! The audio quality is good considering the price, I have some earbuds that sound better but they are easily 4x what these P41i earbuds cost and they don’t have near the features. In the app you can change the controls to your liking. By default a tap and hold on both earbuds switches from noise cancelling to transparent mode so I kept changing modes accidentally while putting them on. I was able to change that to a triple tap on the right side only so I didn’t have that issue any more. I moved the play/pause to a tap and hold and then I set the volume + and - to a single tap

Great sound options, incredible battery life and innovative case. Remarkably comfortable and secure earbud fit.

Anker has truly pulled off something amazing here with these earbuds. They check so many boxes for the on-the-go tech user and solve the issue of portable audio with portable charging in one go, all while being affordable! The Soundcore P41i earbuds check multiple boxes that really matter to me with my portable audio devices. For one, they have Active Noise Canceling (ANC) that is actually shockingly effective. Even when compared to my usual Airpod Pro 2’s I use, these earbuds feel practically like occlusive ear plugs with how well the noise cancelling works. These is great if you require some extra quiet in a noisy environment like a busy café when you are trying to study and such. The audio quality itself is actually quite commendable. They manage to be almost as immersive in audio as some over-the-ear headphones I have used, but avoid the tinny trebles some cheaper earbuds I have tested elicit. The charging case with built in USB-C cable for charging other devices is just so clever. The case was able to charge my Amazon Kindle paperwhite from 7% all the way to 100% and still had 20% battery left on the charger! I will say that this capacity can create a quite large case that may not be very comfortable in tight jeans pockets, or might bounce around too much in your gym shorts pockets if you are at the gym. But if you plan is to store or carry the case/charger in your purse, backpack, gym bag, etc., than you shouldn’t have a problem!

They are super comfortable, I can wear them for hours on end and have zero discomfort AND they won't fall out of your ear. They don't lose power quickly and can use them all day long without having to recharge. The sound is very good. The case with the powerbank has already saved me a few time within a week. Unfortunately i can't use them for phone calls, people just can't hear me. They are only passable for phone calls if you are in a dead quiet environment with absolutely no background noise, not even a little wind.

You can't really go wrong with these earbuds. They have a wide variety of tips to get the perfect fit for your ear. The active noise cancellation works great for this price point. The live translation works really well. Volume is solid and they have a nice bass boost feature also. The fact that you can charge your phone in an emergency with the case also makes this a no-brainer. If you're an EDC type of person, the fact that you've got the buds and a charger all incorporated into one is fantastic.

I decided to try out the lower priced Anker Bluetooth earbuds to see if they were good value or not. I wanted some earbuds that could be used with IOS, Android, and a Windows laptop. When I unboxed the earbuds, I was impressed with the good quality products and special design. It has an LED screen in the front of the case that displays the power level of each earbud, the power level of the case, I also liked that the case could hold up to 3,000mAh which I am used to having spare portable chargers so this has been an all-in-one device that I have started to like more each time I use it. The sound quality on the earbuds is much better than I expected because of the Soundcore application which allows you to customize the levels of ANC which I use on my other brands to help block out environmental noises. I need to mention that the company seems to have some low-cost features like language translation or chat with an AI program it must be more helpful for you. I was not impressed with the translation accuracy or ability to capture when the other language was coming from 8-10 feet away. I eventually just stopped trying but later found it was able to translate better when the person was on a phone call a couple of feet from me, it gave more accurate information. After testing the earbuds on all of the various scenarios mentioned above I decided that it was a decent product but I would likely only use it with my laptops or one of my Android phones as needed.

It arrived half a week after it said it delivered via FedEx, but I blame FedEx and the wonky stuff rather than Best Buy obviously! Sooo, speaking on the earbuds. These are my second, but technically my first real pair. I have old airpods ones I got from a relative as a super sale gift thing. Those hurt and don't have the jelly cups, and the sound, while okay, wasn't the best. These though? Wow! Although bass won't ever feel like headphones (my beloved Skullcandy Evos, lol) I was shocked with the very much sensible bass, especially when songs do a zig zag. The sound is very crisp and clear, not tinny, thank goodness! My first venture into noise cancelling. I don't care for noise cancelling since I prefer to be aware as I tend to daydream too easily. But these? Wow! I can hear stuff still obviously, but it's in the background like you're covering your ears. It enhances the music too! I may be crazy, but I think the bass gets better slightly when you put noise cancellation on too. Oh right, by the way, these settings are changeable in the app! It's a very nice app and isn't all janky like Skullcandy's, haha. The default earbuds preset is good, but you can customize it in the app! It even has a seal detector that can tell you if you have the earbuds on right. That, and a custom test to tell customize sound to your liking. Even better! You can use each bud on different devices. I haven't tried it yet, but it's available via the app. Can really feel the music in your head with these, also. Super good for clear music! Overall, first Bluetooth earbuds, and they are comfortable! I had an irrational fear of the jelly cup earbuds as a child, but this helped. I love these earbuds so much, and use them interchangeably for music, or gaming on my steam deck. The charger thing, while gimmicky (lol. Not in a bad way), saved my butt yesterday. I forgot my power bank and couldn't charge my phone anywhere, and I brought the earbuds and could charge my phone thanks to the case. Okay, enough rambling. These earbuds are really good! I got them on sale when they were 30, and seeing the price now, wow I got a deal! These are super worth the price though!! Love them absolutely so much!

Sound quality is amazing. Battery life is good. The portable charging is very convenient. For those that don't know quality earphones you go to the app and adjust the setting. People really think you just slip them on and expect studio quality for their preferences.
