Soundcore Life P3i Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Wireless Earbuds Black

I had the latest model of ear buds from a certain company named after a fruit that I spend $250 on. Unfortunately they got stolen and I bought these until I could save up enough to buy better quality earbuds again. Looks like I won't need to upgrade! Pros: The sound quality is insane! I have no idea how it sounds so good at this price point. Not quite as good as the top of the line but way better than mid to upper-mid range buds. Transparency mode is incredible! No drop in sound quality, no extra noise added, the pass through audio isn't too tinny. I have no clue how Anker could figure this out in an earbuf under $100 while others couldn't get that right for $250. Button customization! You can change what the buttons do in the app! And there's 3 different button commands per ear! Comfy! I don't even feel them in my ear, it's crazy how nice they feel, idk if it's just my ear shape but usually earbuds hurt my ears after a couple of hours Bluetooth is working amazingly. No connecting while it's in the case which was a huge problem with my last earbuds Cons: ANC is weaker than competitors, but not bad. It will definitely help on an airplane or around constant sources of noise, but someone talking around you is going to be just as audible as in normal mode. That said, the passive noise cancelation is pretty good so I don't even feel like I'll need the ANC except in certain scenarios. Button placement. To press the button you have to push it into your ear which is a little uncomfortable. I wish they had put the button on the side of the stems. Luckily they don't require much pressure so it's not a huge deal, and it's better than having to tap on them like some ear buds. Case is pretty cheap, I don't feel like it would hold up well if dropped. Meh: Battery life is almost as advertised on normal mode. Charges relatively quickly. No complaints. Call quality is a little echoey. Still clear and nobody has complained about it on calls. Overall, great pair of earbuds! They're a 4.5/5 star earbuds, but given the price, I can easily round up to a 5/5. Really hoping they don't crap out on me too soon because I'll be using them forever if they last.

My go-to wireless ear buds are Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, but I don't like to bring them to work as they are expensive and don't want to loose them or have them get taken. As well when I'm at work I'm getting interrupted so many times during the day I prefer a Apple air bud like style ear bud that's easy to pull from your ear. Since my last office pair of ear buds finally failed after 4 years it was time for a replacement, with all the options out there it was kind of a drop in the bucket what to pick from that under $50 and these had same day shipping so figured I give them a try. First off sound quality these are good and you can adjust the eq with the mobile app, but the default preset is likely the best for my taste of music. They are certainly not as tuned as higher end ear bud, but have more of the classic bass heavy and untuned mid to high ends that lack the clarity a high end ear bud provides. That said, for the price point, I think they are good, and having ANC is really nice when you what to block out the office noise. The pass through option to hear what's around you is ok, but I wish you could adjust how sensitive it works. As for pairing/connecting, they have zero issues with my Lenovo Win10 laptop and are typically already connected by the time they are in my ear. As for fit, I'm likely a bad example to give a review on this portion. As my doctor once said you just have "weird ears" and ear bud just don't stay in my ears very well. I need ear bud that fit to the shape of my ear not so much to just to staying in the ear cancel. As long as I'm just sitting or standing they are fine, but if I go to pick something up off the ground, one of them will fall out. And yes I've tried difference sized tips. That said they feel very light in the ear and you quickly forget they are there. As for the buttons on the ear buds, at times I like the physical "click" of the button but at the same time you do have to press harder and it is a little more clumsy to do double clicks compared to a touch sensing ear bud. You do have a tone of flexibility to configure what the button does via the mobile app on your phone. As battery, I have zero issues. When I leave my desk for a few mins I'll put them in the case and let them to a little bump charge. I've yet to see them even get close to running out of battery even with ANC used nearly the entire day. In summary, for under $50 I think they are a good buy, and they get the job done. That said, if you want the best audio quality experience, you won't find that here.

I have had this for 6 months of constant use and they have thus far been pretty solid. I got the "oat white" and it looks cleaner than black after use. The color is great as I don't have to worry about dead skin and other gross ear stuff being readily visible. The gold trim makes them look premium while wearing. The sound is fine, not better than AirPods, not worse. The noise reduction is okay. I took them on a trans-Pacific flight recently and it does drown out some of the jet engine noise but does not quite work on the voices in the cabin. If I have to nit pick the design, which is similar to AirPods with the stalk sticking out, is nice for install and removal but the stalks hit against my neck pillow on the plane and kept popping out. Okay when I was awake not good when I was asleep having to root around a dark, economy class seat in a full plane, hoping it didn't roll onto the floor. Compared to Apple AirPods at three times the cost, these are excellent alternatives. The couple nitpicks I have is 1) They can only be paired with one music source at a time. You have to push the button at the bottom of the case to repair to another. Not a big deal but kind of a pain, hence the 4 versus 5 stars 2) They don't have is the ability to find them like using your phone which the AirPods do have. However, at the given cost, one cannot complain. If you're looking for a solid set of earbuds and don't want to spend for Apple AirPods, these are a more than viable alternative. Don't hesitate to get them as your primary or as a set of backups, they are an excellent value at great quality and Anker's excellent customer care.

Honestly one of the best earbuds at this price! Sound quality is great! I use it almost everyday. The equalizer that connects to the phone is a cool feature. I actually lost one of the buds outside last year and it was raining. After a week outside and I finally found it. I cleaned it months later, thinking it would not work. Surprisingly, it had no issues! Very durable, and it continues to work today. The battery lasts as advertised. Not the longest battery, but I'm okay with it. The noise cancelling is alright, not really what I use the earbuds for though. I can't compare it to another product since it's the first one I had with noise cancelling. In a quiet setting you can't hear voices, but you can hear the typing, clicking noises. The only downside is that sometimes when I put the earbuds back in the case, it doesn't charge. I would have to try a couple times to make sure it was charging.

I bought these headphones as a back up for my beats and they have replaced my beats and have lasted way longer than I thought they would. Great sound quality, amazing battery life, pretty good noise cancelling, and they don't fall out.

For this price range, I don't think you can beat these. Of course if you want to spend a couple hundred bucks you can get better quality, but at this price range they are great. - Sound quality is good - The smallest ear cushion was still a little big for my ear, but it is not uncomfortable. - Noise cancelling is hit and miss depending on the sound. I am guessing it depends on the frequency. It does an excellent job canceling out the noise from the AC air handler. Standing a couple feet from the intake vent, I actually had to remove one of the ear buds to be sure the AC was still running. So I am guessing this would be good on a plane too. - An annoying thing was that I actually had to install the Soundcore app before I could enable the transparency mode. Using the button on the earpiece was only cycling between standard mode and noise canceling mode. I had to install the app to set it up to use the transparency mode. Once it was set up I could then use the button on the earbud to cycle all three modes (standard, noise cancelling, transparency). Then I set up the equalizer the way I wanted and deleted the app. It retained the settings. - Transparency mode is good when walking around. I could hear cars coming, and even heard somebody coming up from behind on an electric scooter. - For some reason one time the right earbud did not connect to the phone. It was somehow off even after just taking both earbuds out of the charge case. I had to hold down the button on the earbud to get it to wake up. - For anybody with a Pixel, if you add the battery widget, it displays the earbud remaining charge when they are connected.

I mostly listen to podcasts, and maybe a little music, and only seldom do I use them for calls. That said, the phone calls have been fine, no complaints on either side. I can't say for sure how well the noise cancellation works, my house is pretty quiet, and when I'm out walking the dogs or going to the grocery store, I still can hear enough outside noise (which is a good thing) so I can hear a car coming up or if someone is trying to get my attention. I can say the outside noises seem more muted than other headphones/earbuds I use, but I haven't tried them side by side. For sound quality, it comes through clear. I'm not really an audiophile, and I'm old and probably have lost high end range anyway to give a fair assessment. They aren't tinny or and having bass overwhelm everything that you can't hear the lyrics or podcasts talking. And they are very clear, both talking and music. And that is good enough for me. It only took about a day to get used to the controls. They are simple enough, but are one, two or three presses on one or the other earbuds. Nicer than others where it is often a combination of long and short presses. And, it is good at detecting the difference between one and two presses (unlike the ones that do short/long press). My only real quibble, and mostly because I listen to podcasts primarily, is that it is one press to raise the volume and two to pause. Given the bluetooth range, I've got the phone on my when using these, and use the phone buttons to control the volume, and wish it were one press to pause for when people start to talk to me. I don't know if is the weighting (they are barely noticable wearing them) or shape or my ears or what, but I've tried all the sizes of silicone buds, and they don't stay in all that great. It is fine when I'm working at my desk, or riding in a car, they don't randomly fall out. But, they do fall out way more often than I'd like. I might be chewing food - that is enough to have one fall out. Doing anything more active than walking the dogs one or the other is likely to fall out. I do sports photography and walking the sidelines is o.k., but if I stop and talk to someone, good chance one falls out. Maybe it is just my ears. The real annoyance is that you can't turn them off. The battery life is great. But you have to have the charging case with you and put them in and close the lid for it to "turn off" and disconnect from the phone. Maybe not a huge deal, but if you take them off and put them on the side table for a second and then your kid comes in and wants to watch a game on TV with you and next thing you know it is 4 hours later and they are discharged, it is an annoyance. Related to that, doing that doesn't even help, or requires a lot more attention. Just popping them in the case doesn't always start them charging. Even being careful and making sure they are seated just so, a lot of time doesn't start it charging. I'd guess my success rate is about 50%. So, you have them "charging" overnight and then wake up to dead earbuds. Now, I put them in the case, and they should disconnect from the phone, so I check the phone to make sure they are disconnected. But even then, moving the case can cause it to lose contact for charging. Or if your pet knocks it over. Or even if everything looks good when going to bed, sometimes it just stops charging for no reason. Luckily, they charge quickly, when you do manage to get it right.

I'm a HUGE fan of budget Bluetooth headphones, especially sports earbuds! **The good:** +These are designed well,(nice and solid) and come with a nice compact carrying case, and offer great battery life. +They also sound very nice! They also support Bluetooth audio with the AAC codec, (not the highest quality, but a great choice for under $50) +Great connection quality! Stable connection no drop-outs, good range! But that's about where my praise ends, **The Bad** -Hybrid Noise canceling? I'm no stranger to cheap Active Noise Canceling (anc) headphones, they'll advertise a "90db drop! in noise", but that really means it lowers the volume, specially of low, constant, sounds. (such as a fan/ac/ PC noises) I don't know what I expected from these, background noise was reduced a bit, but that was far more from the 'passive noise-canceling' from heaving these properly sealed in your ears. Once I turned on the active noise-canceling feature, low background noise had an extremely moderate decrease. (I could barely tell it was on) -AI enhanced mic for calls? It would be interesting to see how you do 'AI processing locally on headphones this cheap, But regardless, they sound almost exactly the same as other (non-ai) bt earphones in the same price range. (Maybe they used an AI to preset the equalizer for them during manufacturing? IDK, add it to the list of misleading claims I guess) Transparency mode... In this mode, you could be able to more clearly hear background noises, such as cars, people, and other important things, however, this is more of a reverse-ANC, Where it just transfers and cranks up ANY background noise, I hope you don't have a fan near buy, because it will be SUPER loud in this mode, And much like Active Noise Canceling, this mode is non-adjustable. The ear tips: This is SUPER subjective, but even being a person who's tried over a dozen cheap head and earphones, (including other models from soundcore) these were some of the least comfortable I've found, I tried all three sizes, nothing fit right, and they easily fell out of my ears, despite following the instructions. I eventually found some tips from some older earphone and started using those. These were about the same size as the ones that shipped with these earphones, but they were a bit more solid, so they stayed in my ears better, and created a better seal. -USB charging on the bottom? Not a huge deal, But it make them harder to charge, as you can't have the case sitting up. If you prefer plugging in your case when it's low, then dropping in your earphone to charge at your leisure, you cant. It only charges when the case is on it's side, so you pretty much need to keep the case close while charging. ---- Tl;Dr: Would I recommend these? Maybe? If they're a good fit for you, and you can get them on-sale, as long as you don't need ANC, they're okay overall, and sounds pretty good! Even though I'm not the biggest fan of sound core's products, longevity (based on my previous SC headphones) at least the company support will replace them even if you have issues shortly after the 30 day window. So these are a MUCH better buy than no-brand earphones...But, if they're not on sale for $40 or less, you may as well go for something else

Well build, good for calling, sound quality average, excellent battery life. Good value for money.

Very good quality and excellent product Long lasting charge and good sound quality. Worth for money

Bought these on sale and very happy with the purchase. Sound quality is excellent for this price point set of head phones and they hold their charge as stated. Would definitely

Comprado após recomendações de amigos, o Soundcore P3i é um pouco mais simples (e mais barato) que o P3 original, mas mantém suas melhores características. Em especial, a qualidadd sonora e a longa duração da bateria. Excelente produto. Foi minha melhor compra da Black Friday.
