soundcore Sleep A30 by Anker Sleep Earbuds, Smart Active Noise Cancelling Sleep Headphones, Adaptive Snore-Masking System, Ultra-Comfort for Side Sleepers, 45H Playtime
A: Based on the information available for the Soundcore by Anker Sleep A30 earbuds, please note the following: These earbuds do not support ANC (Active Noise Cancellation). Instead, they use a 4-point passive noise masking system to block external noises. Furthermore, the Sleep A10 model (a similar product with detailed information) automatically switches modes when it detects that the user has fallen asleep. However, you can prevent this automatic switching by disabling the "Smart Switch" feature in the Soundcore app. To ensure that audio such as Bluetooth music plays continuously all night without interruption: Make sure the "Smart Switch" is turned off in Music Mode. This setting will prevent the earbuds from switching to Sleep Mode when sleep is detected. Regarding battery life, the exact duration depends on factors like volume level and the mode being used. While details about the battery life of the Sleep A30 model are not explicitly mentioned, similar earbuds provide substantial playtimes when fully charged. For extended use throughout the night, you may want to ensure the case is fully charged as well, as it may recharge the earbuds multiple times.
A: The Soundcore A30 earbuds are designed to connect via Bluetooth to your mobile devices such as the Google Pixel 9, allowing you to stream audio from various apps, including YouTube and Facebook, similar to other wireless earbuds. You need to ensure that your Google Pixel 9 has its Bluetooth enabled. Once paired, you can use the earbuds to stream audio from most applications on your phone. Furthermore, downloading and utilizing the Soundcore app from the Google Play Store can enhance your user experience by providing additional features and settings for the earbuds. However, the Soundcore app currently supports only mobile devices and does not work on computers.
Q: Can I use these to sleep with to block out outside noise
A: Yes and no. They do control some local noise like my wife watching TV in the other room but on occasion I can hear train horns even though we live a few miles from the track. A lot seems to be how adept you are at fitting them, Get them in just right and they're fine. The ANC is not very aggressive compared with a very uncomfortable brand I tested previously

Noise cancelling doesn't appear to be aggressive yet it works. Comfort is good. I occasionally sleep on my side and while they took getting used to I now don't notice them. Most of the control is best done through the app. The tap controls work and are able to be customized but they only control four actions at one time (two per ear). Curiously the app has a A.I. assistant with it. Personally, I find A.I. an annoying waste of time. I thought these were "SLEEP buds"! Sound is ok but I use another app to tune the sound better to my liking. I find some of the downloadable sounds for "local" to be strange ie: electronic goose noises. The charge is adequate for my use and the buds will shut the sound down if they are set to detect sleep which is a plus. Anker seems to be paying attention as they offer regular software updates which have fixed some small glitches. Seriously on the fence given value for cost as to recommendation.

Hard to justify the price when AirPods Pro's are so much better for the same money, often for less. The sound quality of these is not all that impressive and the noise cancelling isn't great. However, these are very small, and for the size they're OK, but I'd rather just have a slightly larger size and get much better results. As for using these while sleeping, which is obviously the main reason to exist, they are slightly more comfortable when sleeping on my side compared to AirPods - but all it means is I could wear them for a couple of hours before they bother me as opposed to like one hour for the AirPods - but either way, neither of them get me close to a fully nights sleep. The most I ever did with these was about 3 1/2 hours - and that was waking up a number of times with these bugging me, but trying to power through it. The sleep info is kind of interesting - but I'd rather wear a watch for sleep tracking. If the noise canceling was better, then the case would be to use these to block out people snoring, I did not test for that, but considering how much background noise it lets in I can't imagine it would work well. Overall, these are just too expensive, and for me, too uncomfortable to keep in all night. Will be returning them.

Noise cancellation is not the strong, did not seem to do anything for snoring sounds. Better off with airpods if you need the noise blocking. However if you’re not too light of a sleeper, these are really comfortable to sleep in and serves some folks. Think of it as a light ambient noise reducer and not cutting out noise
