    Solid Earbuds for Work and Play

    If you are in the market for a nice pair of wireless in-ear headphones, you may want to try the Soundcore-by Anker Life Note 3S Earbuds True Wireless In-Ear Headphones. The earbuds are lightweight and offer really good sound for your listening needs. When you open the box, you have everything you need. You have the case, USB charging cable, and the earbuds. The only thing that is not there is a wall plug for the USB charger. To get started, these earbuds are some of the easiest to pair. All I needed to do was open the Bluetooth selection screen on my iPhone. I opened the earbuds case, and it immediately went into pairing mode. After about 5 seconds, the earbuds were listed in my unconnected devices. I clicked on the earbuds. It was that simple. Whether you are listening to funk, rock, or classical, the Life Note 3S Eadbuds have great sound. When listening to funk, the bass was strong but not so overbearing that it hurt you ears when you turn the volume up. When listening to quiet passages in classical, there was not noticeable white noise or hiss. This makes these earbuds good for both work and play. The earbuds are one size fits all. There are no rubber pieces that go in your ear. This can be both good and bad. I found the earbuds to be extremely comfortable and I had no problems with their fit. My wife tried them on, however, and she complained that the earbuds were big. There is no way to change the earbud size, but it should work for most. But I at least wanted to mention that some may find this undesirable. You can take calls with these earbuds. The earbuds have 4 microphones. I found voice quality over the earbuds was quite good. The callers’ voices were crisp and clear. The listeners also didn’t have any problem hearing me. When I asked, they said they could tell a difference. While these earbuds are small (they aren’t quite as big as AirPods), they pack plenty of listening power. The advertised battery life per change is listed as 35 hours. I didn’t test this fully, but I listened to these for 3 straight days at work without charging and had no issues at all with battery life. These earbuds also charge very quickly, so you can do a quick charge and go. Overall, I really like the Life Note 3S Earbuds. These pack a lot of punch in their small, compact design. If you need a versatile set of earbuds that can be used at the office and the gym, I recommend that you give these a look.

    I thought I’d take the time to explain the ingenious design in these earphones, if you use the app they show you how they’re supposed to sit in your ear not go in your ear. If you have trouble finding tip sizes for your ears with these you don’t have to worry about that. Also love the wireless charging on these.

    The first pair I bought had sound issues and mic issues. It would also stop and play out of nowhere or change the song. After replacing them, the new pair worked as intended. They aren’t anything amazing but they are also not terrible. The controls functions on it can be a bit confusing but you get use to it over time.

    I'm always looking for a pair of true wireless earbuds that don't hurt my ears after a few hours of use. Whether I'm traveling on a long commute, working at my desk, or out for a run, I want my earbuds to be clear, rich, and comfortable. The Anker Life Note 3S is exactly that. Packaged with a simple USB-C charging cable, you're instructed to charge the earbuds for 15 minutes before your first use. Take the time to read the easy-to-follow instructions while enjoying the headset's economical form and minimal design. The black earbuds are glossy on its interior and have a slightly textured matte black color on the external area. The earbuds are very lightweight and fit nice and snug into my ears; they don't jiggle or jostle easily when performing activities like running. When it comes to comfort, form and design are a definite plus with the Life Note 3S. The tiny, pillbox charging case is far from intimidating, but don't let the small size fool you: the Life Note 3S packs a surprising punch. The earbuds paired with my mobile quickly and without incident. The audio experience is rich and surprisingly smooth while picking up detailed sounds. The Bluetooth range is good when several rooms away from my mobile device, and in general I did not experience any hiccups or issues with its short-range transmission. When making and receiving calls, the quality is good, with a little bit of hollowness on the other end but allowing for clarity from my microphone. I did feel as if I was picking up a lot of background noise from the receiving end, so I would say it rates pretty average but acceptable for phone calls. Controls are the standard gestures for earbuds of this size, with varying combinations of taps and holds that can be customized on the optional free Soundcore app. However, the best feature feels like their ability to be inconspicuous; they have a battery life of 30+ hours playtime but are so unobtrusive that I don't mind keeping them on when not in use. Anker has produced a quality product that provides great sound for a long time while allowing for extended use with its lightweight size and comfortable fit. Coupled with some easy, intuitive controls, the Life Note 3S earbuds do their job without any distractions. It's everything you want in a pair of true wireless earbuds. Full disclosure, I received this product for my honest, unbiased review.
