Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought these because I needed something quick for a short notice trip and didn't want to spend a lot of money since I didn't expect to use them that often after said trip. My expectations were pretty low, but I was very impressed with these earbuds. On one leg of my trip, I was sat directly next to the aircraft engine on the side of the aircraft and the ANC on these earbuds was a sanity saver. To be clear ANC on these doesn't cut out all sound completely. If not playing anything I could still hear things like Airport announcements albeit they were much quieter. However, they do very well with things like crowds of people talking or sounds on an airplane. Once I start playing music I don't hear anything even at low volume. I'm no audiophile so I can't comment on the quality of sound except that I did encounter any distorted or muffled audio at any point. They get plenty loud to where I had no trouble listening to them on a plane and in an airport. The phone app has an EQ. I tried a few of the EQ options but ended up leaving it on the "soundcore Signature" option with bassUp turned off. As I said, I had really low expectations for $69 ANC earbuds, but I ended up being thoroughly impressed with them. If you're looking for ANC and good sound, but don't want to spend a bunch of money, you can't go wrong with these.

Review for Soundcore - Life Note 3i - Black: The Life Note 3i earbuds are very comfortable and provide excellent music reproduction. The Soundcore app makes it easy to adjust the equalization settings. You can choose from a number of presets like electronic, pop, rock, etc. or you can create your own custom equalization settings and name them. I like that the buds have real buttons on them to click once or twice or to hold for achieving different functions. Most buds have their touch functions built in, but the Life Note buds let you customize these functions. This makes it easy to match the functions on other buds you may have and have grown use to, or just set them the way that feels more natural to you. For example, the buds are preset to take one click for volume up (on the right) or one click for volume down (on the left) whereas a double click is used to play or pause. This is fine if you like these settings, but I like to reverse them so that play and pause is a single click. The fit for the buds are customizable with three sizes of silicone ear cups that make them fit very nicely and help them to stay in your ears. It’s easy to toggle the noise cancelling function on or off or you can use the the app to choose transparency mode if you want to listen to tunes and still have some awareness of your surroundings.

These headphones have good sound. They were easy to connect to my iPhone, once you find the pairing button which is well hidden on the case. I had to download the Soundcore app to utilize the noise cancelling function of the headphones and some of the other functionality of the headphones. This was one of the reasons for the 4 stars instead of five star in the review. They are pretty sleek looking. I found that as I was exercising, the more I would sweat, these headphones would slip out of my ears. Thought maybe I needed one of the other sizes of tips and tried them and still had the same issue, think it is a just a design flaw. For normal, everyday use though this would not be an issue. When I wear them just walking or wear one while driving there is no issue. The sound the buds produce is surprisingly clear and crisp. Another reason for the 4 star instead of 5 star review is that unit only comes with a very short cord not a charger so you have to charge the unit with a computer. It is not Qi charger compatible.

Got these for 35 bucks and im amazed how these sound . I have beats and appl ear buds and these actually sound better than those. The bass hits harder in these than my beats and apple the highs are better on the beats snd apple . But if you download the soundcore app and mess with the eq settings the highs get better . Mids are good too . This is probably the best earbuds under $100 bucks

I was completely surprised by how light they feel and how easy it was to setup through the app. The sound quality is excellent and the noise cancelation works perfectly. I am so happy i got these instead of the more expensive Sony or Bose ones which are too bulky. I can hardly notice these when theyre in my ears. Great value headphones.

Anker has once again shown you can you get a high quality product without breaking the bank. For a long time all I knew about Anker was they made some of the best cell phone chargers on the market. That was until I tried a pair of their over the ear headphones and was blown away that something that was significantly cheaper than the class leaders could actually compete with them. The Life Note 3i continues that same thing. The earbuds produce a nice clean detailed sound no matter what genre I tried, from country, rock or rap. They never left me wanting more, especially at their price point. One of the most important features to me besides sound with earbuds is can they be used independent of each other, specifically can the left be used by itself for both calls and music. I am happy to say they can! This is such an indispensable feature if you use your earbuds for calls and only use one at a time. And when using them for calls the sound quality is excellent on both ends. The soundcore app gives you the ability tweak all the features from sound to noise canceling. The only feature I can say they don’t have is wireless charging but at least they do use USB-C. Anker shows you don’t have to spend a lot to get a quality set of earbuds, with features and sound that belie their price.

This headphones are amazing, very good sound quality, and the battery is very good as well. the only contra is that the phone does not show the case battery, not even in the app. the noise canceling is very good, even in a plane.

The sound quality is amazing, bass/treble is top notch, and I gifted to my spouse on her birthday.

After 2 hours using for the first time, the left side not working.

Does what it says such as noise canceling. Comfortable fitting in the ears as well

Affordable with great battery and connection. Good enough sound.

The earbuds are good and comfortable Sound quality is good

Good sound. Durable battery. You can pick calls with it too.

I was recommended this brand by a trusted friend that couldn't say enough about how much this brand has exceeded expectations. The most expensive pair of this brand was not within my budget, so I opted for the Life Note 3i Noise Canceling ear buds - and they work as true as they promise! Thank you.

These were my first quality ear buds so I may be prejudiced due to inexperience. With that caveat, IMHO, they are excellent.

Honestly, if I could return these I would. Not sure if it is just something with me and these particular earbuds, but they will NOT stay in. Have tried all 3 sizes, have watched 4 YouTube videos on getting earbuds to stay in and these just won't. I am only using them for Teams meetings, so it is manageable, but no way would I try to walk or run with them - they'd be gone in no time. If you can get them to stay in your ears the sound quality is good though.

This is the sound I was looking for. Great bass and detail sound. I was going to buy a different brand earbuds but I decided to give this earbuds a chance.

These do the job at a quarter of the price if their competitors. If you need noise cancellation and great sound without the fanfare of the hype beasts then these are it.

For the price these are the best out there. Audio quality, app controls, price, feel on ears and battery life.

Very nice device. It’s easy to use and the quality wonderfull.
