Hi-Res Audio: Custom oversized 40 mm dynamic drivers produce Hi-Res sound. Life Q20 active noise canceling headphones reproduce music with extended high frequencies that reach up to 40 kHz for extraordinary clarity and detail.
Reduce Ambient Noises By Up to 90%: Our team of engineers conducted more than 100,000 tests in real-life scenarios to fine-tune Life Q20’s 4 built-in ANC microphones and digital active noise cancellation algorithm. As a result, the hybrid active noise cancellation can detect and cancel out a wider range of low and mid-frequency noises such as cars and airplane engines.
100% Stronger Bass: Our exclusive BassUp technology conducts real-time analysis of the low frequencies to instantly strengthen the bass output. Double press the play button when listening to bass-heavy genres like EDM and hip-hop for an amplified listening experience.
60-Hour Playtime*: Up to 40 hours of non-stop playtime in wireless active noise cancellation mode (at 60% volume) is extended to an enormous 60 hours in standard music mode. A single charge gives you enough juice to listen to over 600 songs or soundtrack multiple long haul flights. And when you’re in a rush, charge Life Q20 active noise canceling headphones for 5 minutes and get 4 hours of listening.

Title: Unbeatable Price:Performance!
Review: I've had the Soundcore Q20 headphones for almost a month now, and I thought I'd start off my review with one simple statement: I've only charged these things ONCE since I've taken them out of the box. These headphones have absolutely phenomenal battery life. The only reason I charged them was because I wanted to test how long they would last on a full charge (within my day to day use). I received these headphones on the 1st of April. It is currently the 27th of April and the battery is still at "Medium" (there is no visual indicator, however there is a voice that tells you whether your battery is "High", "Medium", or "Low").That being said, I'll go ahead and list some Pros:- Battery Life (Seriously, I can't stress enough how good it is)- Sound Quality- Comfort- Looks- Sturdiness/Build Quality- Noise Cancellation (there's a caveat here, continue reading to see what I mean)BATTERY LIFE:As if I haven't already said enough, these headphones refuse to die. I've used them from anywhere between an hour to 3-4 hours at a time (long gaming sessions or binging a show on my laptop or phone), and they just don't let up. Like I mentioned in the intro, it's been almost an entire month with these headphones and I've only had to charge them once. It is worth mentioning that the battery will drain much faster with noise-cancelling turned on, as it is indeed ACTIVE noise-cancelling and uses more power. I've got to give props to Anker for marketing these as lasting 40 hours, as this runtime is more accurate when noise-cancelling is ON. With ANC off, these can easily last 60+ hours. It's always refreshing to see a company slightly under-sell and over-deliver.SOUND QUALITY:These things sound way better than they should at this price-point. I wouldn't call myself an audiophile, but I do have experience with over-ear, closed-back studio headphones (I own a pair of Audio Technica ATH-M50x's), and dabble in amateur sound mixing/mastering as a guitarist. Apart from being just a bit heavier on the bass than I would like, these headphones do an excellent job at bringing out lows, mids, and highs in pretty much anything you'll find yourself listening to. Nothing sounds drowned out or overexposed (with the exception of the bass, but there's a valid reason for it in this case). I bought these headphones primarily for multimedia consumption (movies, video games, music, etc.). They have just the right amount of punch in the low-end to make things such as explosions or bass-heavy sound effects really shine. In this instance, the heavier low-end makes sense. Voices sound crystal clear, as the mids don't get drowned out by the lows or highs like on some other higher-priced headphones (looking at you, Beats..). The highs are where these things truly shine, in my opinion. Lots of budget headphones tend to sound very "tinny" with harsh, sharp highs to over-compensate for the overly-saturated bass, but these do a great job at keeping both the mids and highs prominent enough (despite the thicker bass).COMFORT:I've owned and used plenty of both over-ear and on-ear headphones over the years, and I can't beat around the bush here: these are the most comfortable headphones I've ever used. I was expecting to have to "break them in", given what some of the other reviews were saying, but the minute I put these on I was pleasantly surprised at just how soft and light these felt (without feeling cheap or flimsy). And I wear glasses!LOOKS:Not a whole lot to say about how these look. I wouldn't say you'll be turning heads while wearing these out and about, but for the amount of money that they cost.. I'm just saying they could've looked a lot worse. I've seen headphones three times the price that are a complete eye-sore. The Q20s are clean and minimalistic, without giving away its low price.STURDINESS/BUILD QUALITY:Although I'm not one to man-handle my devices (no matter how little they may cost), I have to say that these don't feel the least bit flimsy. I did a mild stress-test by stretching both ear cups apart as far as I was comfortable with and was able to get about 10 inches wide. I don't think anyone has a head that wide, but if you do, these are definitely going to fit. The build quality feels great, and I feel like these will definitely last a while (and I will be updating this review if that changes lol).NOISE CANCELLATION:These headphones do indeed have active noise cancelling, BUT.. I literally almost NEVER use it. Here's why: they don't need it. The headphones are built in such a way that even with the ANC off, they drown out a ton of outside noise. Unfortunately, there is a significant drop in volume when noise-cancelling is activated. The bass takes a hit as well, making it more evened out with the mids and highs (which might be a plus for some).FINAL THOUGHTS:There's only really one "Con" that I wasn't going to mention, and that's the carrying bag that comes with the Q20s. There's nothing really wrong with it, but I did just want to note that they used to come with a hard carrying case (according to some older YouTube reviews), and I'm a little salty that us newer buyers don't get that lol. All in all, for the $60 that I paid for these headphones, I can't think of any reason not to fully recommend them. They sound great, the battery life lasts incredibly long (almost to a suspicious degree, making you feel like today is finally the day it'll need a charge only to be proven wrong), it's got decent looks, solid build, and they even threw in Active Noise Cancellation for situations that call for some extra silence. If you're in the market for some new headphones for multimedia consumption (I definitely would not use these for any professional work, as they are not made for that), and have a bit of a stiffer budget, look no further. These will do more than its price tag leads on.

Title: Checked every box, incredible value!
Review: These are my new favs. I previously had JBLs I loved but they broke too easily so ventured to find a new set. I also tried more expensive headphones, including the Soundcore Anker Q30s, 1MORE SonoFlows, Edifier W830NBs, and even Sony WH-1000XM4s, which had tons of "best bluetooth headphones" recommendations and cost over $200. These Q20s beat all of them, for just over $40! Why you ask? They literally checked every box for me: quality build, look good, lightweight, comfortable, excellent sound (esp. with Bass Boost option and EQ in app), crazy long battery life, and incredibly reliable connectivity. I highly recommend them to anyone no matter your price point or preferences, you won't be disappointed.

Title: Decent headphones at a great price
Review: Comfortable ear support, easy to pair with my iPhone and the microphone works well. Also impressed with the noise cancellation feature. Would recommend for someone looking for a decent set of headphones without breaking the bank.One downside is that the audio quality could be a bit better. Observed crackling audio even when I adjusted some equalizer settings through the Soundcore app and about 60% volume.The free app is an added bonus, though and makes switching between noise canceling modes very easy.If you are looking for high end performance or are an audio snob, these may not be your best bet. Minus the occasional crackling audio, these headphones are a solid choice!

Title: Quite Surprised
Review: I read the reviews on several earphones, in ear, over the ear, bone conducting and such. Every one had its pros and cons in the reviews.Firstly, the item arrived when stated it was to be delivered. It arrived undamaged. Charging is simple and uses a standard type C charger. I honestly do not remember how long it took to charge fully though.Battery life seems dang decent so far. I only go to the gym for about 2 hours tops and I use it the whole time there. Once done I place back on the charger and it's charged fairly quickly. My biggest test would be if I could use it while mowing because that's a half day job and I'm always listening to something.The sound quality is good. The volume could be a little louder but that is just my preference, go loud or go home, lol. However weather it's talk radio or music, it is loud and I do not hear the going on's around me. Idk if it is really noise canceling or just a good seal.Speaking of seal, as I said I wear them about 2 hrs a session and they're very comfortable. So sore spots and they cover my ears well and do not allow outside noises in.Overall a good purchase for the price and so far the best I have come across.

Review: Si bien no soy como otras personas un "reviewer profesional" o que me dedique a esto, puedo dar los suguientes puntos en base a mi experiencia personal tantoc o melomano como musico por hobbie.En mi uso de audifonos tengo algunos en gama y costos similares, como son los JBL LIVE 500, Audio-technica ar3bt, Urbanista Seattle....Estos Anker mi primera impresion fue, que tenian bastante bajos que ensuciaban el resto de la pista, a diferencia de los otros 3 modelos que mencione eh utilizado... si bien no me desagradaba, estaba considerando la calidad de audio que ofrecen los puse en ultimo lugar de mi lista de gadgets...PERO O SORPRESA....cuando active el Anc (cancelacion de ruida activa) wwoow.... si bien por si sola la cancelacion pasiva hace muy buen trabajo, esta funcion mejora levemente la eliminacion de ruido ambiental, PERO, tambien cambian las frecuencias la musica que estas escuchando dandele una sensasion de amplitud y claridad a la musica que no tenian en mis anteriores audifonos. Los bajos pasaron a estar en segundo plano, OJO no desaparecen simplemente todo esta en un mejor balance, pero con esto todos los intrumentos escuchando rock, suenan claros estan presentes, mejoro bastante la calidad del sonido y precencia en escenario. En musica electronica tambien tienen una sobresaliente actuacion por sus bajos y potenciador de bajos electronicos que activas con un boton en los audifonos.CONCLUSION, recomendados!!!! definitivamente Anker es una marca que lo viene hacieno bien ultimamente.MATERIALES, CONSTRUCCION Y PRESENTACION, si bien la caja y los empacas no son de lo mas eleborado y lujoso, hasta parecieran algo de baja calidad, los audifonos los partes plasticas se ven de muy buena calidad, definitivo parece que soportaran el uso diario y algo de trato rudo pueden soportar si los cargas en tu mochila con mas cosas. Las almohadillas cubren bien tu oreja y te aislan del ruido exterior, son comodas, un poco calientes al ser piel sintetica, pero tolerables.

Review: Tecnicamente, é um excelente produto com graves bem equilibrados e som bem cristalino. Mas comprei o fone para tentar eliminar o barulho de uma obra vizinha. O Noise Cancelling dele é muito bom, apesar do quase imperceptÃvel white noise. Deixa um pouco de ruÃdo se usar muito baixo, mas resolveu o problema de barulho externo. Almofadas confortáveis que cobrem toda a orelha e isso ajuda mais ainda. O acabamento é bom, nada excepcional, mas cumpre a função. Comandos externos de fácil acesso e a bateria duuuuura longas 40 horas (sem NC). Valeu cada centavo!

Review: The noise cancelling is good, sound levels are fine, not heavy on the head, nor is it clunky, Bluetooth connection is fast and never troubles, easy to bring around, and the material is sort of cheap feeling if I were to nit-pick but it's enduring greatly!Overall good pair of headphones. Likely not the best for audiophiles though.

Review: These wireless headphones have exceeded all my expectations. The sound quality is phenomenal.The active noise cancellation is amazing, cutting out up to 90% of background noise. Itâs been a game changer for me, especially when commuting or traveling on the aeroplane, as it blocks out distractions and lets me fully enjoy whatever Iâm listening to.The battery life is another standout feature, offering up to 40 hours of playtime with noise cancellation on and 60 hours in standard mode. A quick 5-minute charge gives me 4 extra hours, which is perfect for those last-minute needs. As I don't use it all the time, the battery can last for weeks.Comfortable, foldable, and reliable, these headphones are a fantastic investment for anyone looking for top-notch audio and convenience.I am extremely impressed.
