Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very good pair of mini earbuds. The sound is very good. It even comes with a built-in equalizer that provides a very good bass. Some evenings I go to sleep with them in my ears. They fit all the way in so you are able to sleep on either your left or right side without any discomfort to your ears.

THESE LITTLE GUYS ARE SO AWESOME! My wife has Airpod 2nd gens, and these Soundcore's easily beat them in sound quality and comfort. Great clarity of sound, loud volumes, and great sound isolation, I could wear them all day, especially with their long battery life on top of it all. Anker Soundcore, all day baby.

I bought these to supplement a pair I use when working there really great.

Good product for that price. Sound good and good quality.

Sound is crystal clear. They don't fall off and good deal.

got this on sale so far they are working great and they charge fast. I've use them the whole day and they didn't died on me.

Sounds quality is great. Setting up is a breeze. It’s been a week since I charged the unit and Instill have 3 lights and I use it everyday. The best part is 75% cheaper than the biggest brand in the market.

The sound is great and when I had one of the earbuds start having issues after I couldn't fix the issue the company not BestBuy sent me a pair for free

excellent headphones I am surprised by the sound quality and the autonomy which is incredible quality value for money I would say it is 5/5 I highly recommend

Good sound quality, people on other end no issues hearing me. But slips out of ears frequently

The earbuds are a great price and the audio is crisp and clear.

I was skeptical about purchasing these at first but after seeing them on sale I decided to pull the trigger. I have to say I am impressed by them, they're light and comfortable enough that my ear does not hurt after prolonged periods of time. Only reason I did not give 5 stars is because these specific earbuds are not compatible with the app to mess around with the EQ.

Good bass. Good clarity. Excellent voice quality. Not bad at all.

Great pair for the price. Need a bit of practice with the touch sensors as it doesn't always respond. The sound and audio is great when on a call. Recommend

These earbuds are an excellent mid-range cost option with high quality features. The earbuds come with 5 different sizes of inserts to find the most comfortable fit and I have not had any discomfort while wearing them, or any trouble with them staying in place. The battery life seems to be very good. I did not charge the earbuds when I first received them, and I still have yet to, with an average use of about 1-2 hours per day for the past 6 days. To me the sound quality is very good, and although these are not noise blocking, they are very effective at blocking out other sounds. The mics on these are pretty decent as well. I took a few phone calls with them and had no complaints on my sound quality. I also used these with both my iphone and Android phone and had no issues connecting with either. The carrying case is fairly petite and perfect for keeping in a purse, small bag, or even a pocket. One feature of these that would be a big deciding factor in whether I would purchase these on my own is the ability to use only one earbud at a time, and you can with these. (I prefer to only use one earbud when I go for runs outside.) Each earbud has a control button which is touch sensitive. This is a nice upgrade to some of my previous earbuds which are press buttons. The touch buttons respond very well, and only take a bit of time to learn their functionalities. Overall all, great mid-range cost option with a variety of features - very happy with these so far.

These are a pretty good set of earbuds and easy to get them to seal up in your ear canal and stay in. They fit in the cup of your ear. They have six pairs of tips so you should be able to find a size that fits snug without making your ear canal tender for extended use. Tenderness is not uncommon for this type of earbuds that rely on friction to stay on your ears. My wife tried these and she really likes them because they fit in her ears and stayed in. One of only two earbuds she has ever used that has out of a total of ten over the past 10 years. When I got the buds snugly in my ears they sounded Flat and kinda dead. I cycled through the 3 preset EQ settings to find the one I thought was best for music and stuck with it as it was the only setting that had any bass to it at all. Bass was low and solid. Not muddy or hollow. Highs were clean but high mids were harsh at almost any volume. Very noticeable to me when listening to vocal harmonies. Examples would be ABBA, Beatles, Beachboys, Steely Dan, Little River Band, Eagles, Ect… As I said about the JVC earbuds I reviewed, “Don’t expect the type of frequency response and sound you would get with the Master and Dynamic earbuds I reviewed a couple of years ago.” For the price they’re Ok but those harsh high mids I don’t like. Do keep in mind that these are not active noise cancelling earbuds. That is there's no DSP (Digital Signal Processing) to remove / cancel ambient noise. Filtering out the noise is how tight you get them to fit in your ears like ear plugs. Also known as passive noise cancelling. As others have said, Call quality leaves a bit to be desired. These buds are supposed to have an AI (Artificial Intelligence) Algorithm to enhance your voice on calls. My wife assists me on some of my reviews and we both agree that when using these buds the person you’re talking to may have a hard time hearing and understanding you. We used my Sony WF-SP800N earbuds, I reviewed last year, as a reference as the other buds we talked to when testing the Life Note E. They will also pick up some road noise when used in a car. The instructions do a good job of telling you how to pair the earbuds by removing a plastic sticker on the stalk of the buds. Then replace them back in the charging box to put them into pairing mode. To pair with another device you put them back in the case with the lid open, press and hold the button on the case for 3 seconds until the LEDS on the front of the case flashes. This worked well for pairing to both phones. Note: They only pair from the charging box. Like other earbuds I have reviewed, there are no tactile switches on the buds. It’s all done by touch. The little booklet explains the functions. Might want to take a photo of it with your phone until you have used them a bit and remember what does what. When doing the multi touches to select the EQ modes it was hit and miss every time. You do however get a confirmation beep when something is selected. There is no app available for the Life Note E. The extra ear tips cannot be stored in the charging storage case. So don’t lose em! The buds come in the charging box and a USB A to USB C cable. You will need to provide a charger and almost any modern cellphone charger will do. It just needs to provide 5 VDC at 500 mA or more. Battery life is rated at 8 hours and 32 with the recharging case. I pretty much got a bit over 8 hours and a half before they started cutting out and off. Build quality seems good for the price. The 18 month warranty is better than average too. As I post this review the Life Note E earbuds are still not listed or shown on the Soundcore website. Conclusion is that these are pretty good earbuds for the price. Not quite up to my standards for music but I've been spoiled with high end gear for decades plus I’m a musician. Bass response is great but I don’t like those harsh high mids. But that is somewhat subjective and someone else might not notice it. But the call quality of the microphones leaves a lot to be desired. You’ll hear the person you’re talking to ok, but they won’t hear you near as well. I only barely recommend these earbuds and that's just for listening to music. Would have given 4 stars if they had performed better on phone calls.

THE BREAKDOWN: The life Note E True Wireless earbuds are indeed a budget friendly earbud comparable to high end models and delivers on most of their features as well. The earbuds come with a charging case, USB-C to USB-A cable, some extra earbud tips in sizes: XS, S, M, L and XL and a quick start guide. First thing is to fully charge the case and earbuds. Next, the setup was a simple as pressing the button on the case and pairing with your desired device. One note to remember is that these earbuds can only connect to one device at time. For example, if you are listening to music on your phone then you want to listen to Netflix on your iPad then you must disconnect them from your phone and pair then to your iPad. For me this is a little annoying because I do have devices that connect to multiple devices. You can also just use one earbud which I found to be very nice. These earbuds do use Bluetooth 5.2. They are also IPX5 Waterproof, and they weigh about 0.16oz. I do not notice any ear fatigue while wearing them for extended periods of time. Battery Life was really good coming in at about 8 hours per charge and an additional 3 charges in the case for a total of 32 hours of time. These earbuds have 3 EQ modes which are default, Bass Booster and Podcast. To change between them all you have to do is quickly tap on the right earbud 3 times. I found the earbuds to have a great sound, and this could be due to the fact they have an oversized triple layer 10mm driver. The full and rich sound was very surprising to me at the price point. Also, while making calls I had no issue with sound on my end or the other end of the call. PRO’s: -3 EQ Modes - Light and compact - IPX5 Waterproof rating - 32 hours of playtime (with the charging case fully charged) CON’s: -Can only connect to one device at a time SUMMARY: Overall, this product worked as intended, and I would recommend this to a friend if they are in the market for device like this that is portable and gets the job done.

So far these headphones have been great. The only con, is that it falls out of my ears easily.

Good price and good quality i love it i recommend 100% ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Anker Soundcore Life Note E True Wireless In-Ear Headphones, model A3943Z11, $50 and a Best Buy exclusive, are near the bottom of the price and feature matrix from the manufacturer. Yet, these buds have the latest, Bluetooth 5.2. Does that mean inferior performance and a lack of features? Let’s see! **WHAT’S IN THE BOX** • Life Note E Earphones with charging case – 8 hours battery life, a total of 32 hours with the case • USB-C to USB-A charging cable – 24” • Documentation with warranty 10 mm triple layer dynamic drivers Charge for 10 minutes, listen for 1 hour IPX5 waterproof for resistance against small water jets projected at low pressure. In other words, I think this means sweatproof and OK for use in light rain. The Soundcore app is not designed to work with this product. The AI enhancement uses the two microphones for uplink noise reduction that may reduce the sound volume received to the other end of the conversation. **THE SETUP** ALWAYS charge first, read documentation and then pair with devices. Now it is time to . . . **PUT IT TO THE TEST** The headphones are comfortable to wear with silicone tips to fit any ear size. Pairing was easy with one device following pairing instructions. Adding a second device involves placing the buds back in their case, pressing a button on the case to enter pairing mode and then pairing with another device. Only one device at a time can be actively paired. To alternate between paired devices, the first one must be ignored in device settings, the buds must be placed in the case for about a minute, and then one removed. Once removed, the alternate device should see the availability of the Life Note E for connection. Battery life per charge is impressive and may be at or near best-in-class, especially at this attractively low price point. It’s time to listen to music. Ah, sweet music. Accessing the three Sound Modes – Soundcore Signature, Bass Booster, Podcast – by tapping the R bud three times to change sound mode. All three modes were effective and did a good job with pleasing results. Press the L or R bud twice for play/pause Press and hold L or R for two seconds to back up or advance a track Press the L or R bud twice to make a call Press and hold the L or R bud for two seconds to answer or end a call Press the L bud three times to summon the voice assistant Making and receiving calls was easy. The quality of the calls was disappointing insofar as those calling me or receiving my calls often commented on the somewhat distant nature of my voice. Local background noise, such as the car radio and ambient sounds at home were all heard loud and clear, unfortunately. I am not sold on the implementation of the AI nor of its benefits in this product. However, let’s bear in mind the low cost of this product. **CONCLUSION** Long battery life, ease of use, three sound modes and very good audio quality for music and podcast playback contribute to these true wireless earbuds/headphones earning high marks. The sound quality of calls was a bit disappointing, but can be almost forgiven if the purchase of Life Note E is not for calling, which, I suspect, will be the case. Recommended? Yes, with the above caveats. **WARRANTY** Comes with manufacturer’s 18-month warranty. Most competitive products come with only a one year warranty. Thank you, Anker.
