Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had the previous version and one broke after the third month. These have much better features and both earbuds still work after 2 months of use

Read before buying! I bought these and was totally satisfied for about 3 months, then the left earbud stopped working, would not charge. After trying ALL the recommended solutions (resetting, cleaning, re-pairing, etc), the left earbud no longer functions. Looking on line there are hundreds of similar failure complaints by customers and although the product comes with an express replacement warranty of 18 months, getting fulfillment or response from Soundcore is a non-starter. Buy if you must but realize that the left earbud will likely fail with a couple of months.

I wanted to love these but I just couldn't. Even with the smallest ear process they hurt my ears terribly when I tried to lay down. The first night I made it a few hours. The next night my ears were sore just from putting them in and I couldn't even where them. I ended up returning them. I'll just have to keep using the headband earphones I had before. I wanted something that would block noise better. I think these may have been slightly bulky better but certainly not noise blocking. I have tinnitus and need sound all night but not the sound of my husband in the kitchen in the morning.

I wanted to love these. I really did. The A10 before this was better. These are really comfy and I tried using them as my daily buds but they would randomly go into sleep mode. This would leave my phone audio blasting making for some awkward situations. They fell out of ears during sleep. The controls are horrible. You have to bang on it in your ear to get it to register your fingers. The case has an odd color and texture. I pretty much hates everything about these other than them being comfy. Which the A10s were better at because they were smaller. Im returning these.

It failed on me a couple times but I still gave it a try as it automatically switches to sleep mode. But enough is enough only to find out my return window ended yesterday. If you value your money DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK. Why? It automatically switch into sleep mode, there's no option to disable it.

I only had this product for a month before it went out. Could not hear anything anymore. I was so sad because helped drown out my husband's snoring

Comfortable but poor sound quality need better sound

Had a bot of skepticism when I purchased but now i sleep better then ever!

The Soundcore Sleep A20 by Anker are good for side sleepers, however they're not loud enough when paired to your phone, I give them a 6 out of 10 for the price

Less than one year, right bud completely stopped working.

Exellent product, love this earbuds, i will buy again

Do not recommend. Most nights they fall out of my ear and/or the battery dies and/or they disconnect for unknown reasons. Settings in app are confusing, not intuitive. Some dsys, they don't chsrge correctly. When they are working, they're great, but unfortunately, I've mostly experienced problems.

Good thing. Works great at night. No complaints...

The instructions were hard to find upon purchase. I tried researching the Noise Cancellation feature, but could never find how to cancel out noise. I was disappointed.

I enjoyed the features and felt hopeful about these, but I just coudn’t get over the discomfort side sleeping. Regardless of the attachments used, the hard plastic core pressed uncomfortably into my inner ear and prevented sleep. I’m sure backa and stomach sleepers will have better results.

These block out most noise without even playing sound.

So easy to use and rhe sound is great !! I use the to sleep

Although I was skeptical at first, Anker’s Next-Gen Sleep A20 Earbuds help me to fall asleep and stay asleep longer. As I tested these earbuds, I focused upon 3 components: comfort, quality, and ease of use. Comfort Soundcore tailored the earbuds to the ear’s structure for comfortable wear throughout the night. They are extremely lightweight. I hardly notice that I have them in if I get up during the night. To optimize comfort Soundcore Sleep A20 Earbuds come with small, medium, and large size tips. Additionally, Soundcore provides a sealed or breathable option for each size tip. The sealed tip masks more noise while the breathable option reduces pressure and allows sound to leak through. There are also three different sizes of Air Wings. These wings wrap around the bud to minimize pressure and ensure a snug fit. It took some experimenting to optimize the fit in my ear and a few nights to maximize comfort. Now that I am accustomed to the buds, I don't even feel them. This is because they are made out of soft materials, are lightweight, and flexible. I am a side sleeper and I don’t feel pressure in my ear canal. However, the fit is snug enough that they don’t fall out. Should a bud dislodge, Soundcore has a find my device feature. However, I haven’t needed to use it. My buds remain secure throughout the night. Even though these are passive headphones with no active noise canceling, the two different designs of ear tips offer ways to reduce noise as much as possible. I eventually decided to use the sealed tip on a regular basis. I can still converse with my spouse while wearing them and hear some sounds. The sealed tip does a credible job of masking annoying sounds like snoring or dogs barking. And, you can customize your own sleep sounds to minimize snoring disruption with Soundcore’s masking sounds. Quality First of all, the battery life is excellent. I listen to audiobooks throughout the night and the battery power remains strong. In the morning, I simply return the buds to their charging case and they are ready for my use the next night. The case requires charging every 5 to 6 days. I just charge it during the day when I don’t need to use the buds. These buds don't offer the greatest audio quality sound quality which I didn’t expect as compared to my music / audio focused buds that I use daily, but they are pretty good. That is a bonus. Also, you can’t make or receive calls which I didn’t want. I am using them to aid in falling and staying asleep along with dampening annoying noises like dogs barking or snoring. These buds should not be criticized for not being able to make calls - they are definitely for that. Ease of Use It is easy to toggle between calming sounds and Bluetooth. You can switch between Bluetooth Mode and Sleep Mode via the Soundcore app or by tapping the left earbud twice. I set my default mode to Bluetooth so I can listen to audiobooks. I also turned on the Switch from Streaming to Sleep Mode feature. The Sleep Mode is supposed to be able to tell when you have fallen asleep to stop the sounds playing. This feature doesn’t always work seamlessly for me but it isn’t a detriment. The battery stays charged and my audiobook keeps playing. The buds have various ways to adjust volume. When using them in Sleep mode, the volume of the sleep sounds can be adjusted via the Soundcore app or by tapping on the earbuds. Tapping doesn’t always work for me. I find it easier to adjust the volume in the Soundcore app or on the device I am using to play my audiobook. This is probably the main reason for knocking off a star - the controls just are not very good and the tapping is difficult to do with success. There also should be more options to customize what the tapping does...these don't provide nearly the customization of my every day buds. I suppose my phone or tablet will always be near so I can use that to control volume , play, pause, etc. but this is one area that needs improvement. At first, I found the app to be a bit challenging and the instructions limited. The app isn't as intuitive as I would like. However, updates are continually being made and I have become accustomed to how it works. It was simply a bit of a learning curve for me. Finally, I would prefer to view my sleep data without needing to have my buds connected. Overall If you enjoy listening to something as you fall asleep and to mask noise - inlcuding your partner's snoring, these will suit your purpose.

I've owned these earbuds for about a month and the right earbud does not stay on! It constantly randomly disconnects and shuts off. It tales pure luck for it to come back on. I wish I would've never purchased them. Very disappointed.

I'm a big fan of any type of sleep buds. I had the Bose units for years until they died on me a few months ago. I've been in search of a replacement ever since. I bought the Soundcore A10's, the predecessor to the A20, and used them for two weeks. They were very quickly returned due to abysmal battery life. When the new A20's were announced, I was highly skeptical. Turns out I was wrong. The A20's fixed every issue I had with the previous version. In 3 weeks of testing, the batteries have never failed to make it through the night with ample room to spare. The buds themselves are extremely well made with a plethora of wing and ear insert options that you can use to customize the fit. The are comfortable to wear and have never fallen our during the night no matter how much I toss and turn. The sound out of them in bluetooth mode is perfectly fine. They won't out do audiophile quality earbuds, but the sound is strong and well balanced. The buds connect quicly and stay connected. In sleep mode, the adjustable volume lets you set the background noise to just the right level. They remember this setting between uses. There are a number of alarm options and,unlike the A10's which made me late for work a few times, the alarm never failed to go off on time. The software also has seen a big upgrade. I've been using the iOS app and, while it has a learning curve, is easy to use once you figure it out. Soundcore needs better tutorials, but most of it is intuitive. The old version never remembered settings after you put the bud back in the charging case. You even had to go in nightly to turn on the alarm. This new version remember everything and has options to customize your listening experience. The A20's have been a pleasure to use. My skeptisism was proven wrong. Soundcore upped their game with better fit, better quality, and better performance across the board. I highly recommend these.
