Should I Buy It?

If you prioritize high-quality sound, long battery life, and in-depth noise cancelling features for a reasonable price, these headphones will satisfy your needs. However, be prepared to adapt to the less-than-optimal user interface and some functionality restrictions. Overall, it's a solid product but requires patience to fully utilize its features.


  • The best I have found for the price! FANTASTIC with my Kindle Fire and I'm hard to please!
Color: Black
I needed to replace my broken set of Anker Soundcore headphone that I sadly steeped on. The Soundcore has held up well a few years of nightly use but can't take a full force of a right foot in a dark room from 250 pound man ( what could? ) I wanted to replace with another Soundcore set as I liked my first pair so well. These Q30's area a great value in active noise cancelling headphones. I use these at night with my Amazon Kindle Fire tablet and many times fall asleep and these play all night so these are for the most part comfortable. I find the noise cancelling function works great for background noise, especially with white noise like from a loud window AC, an airplane or road noise from a car/ RV. The battery life is FANTASTIC! I use these headphones 8 hours a night and only need to charge them every few days but I never let them get below medium so I may could get a full week of every day use if I pushed it. I have owned my last set a few years and never noticed any battery issues so whatever battery is in these headphone truly last and last! I am an audiophile and a pro sound tech so I know headphones however, I did not buy these headphone to give me "The Best" or fantastic sound for listening to music as thats not how I use these. I use these headphones at night to watch Sling TV on my tablet or youtube at night but my reason for buying the Q30 is I want the best, natural sound without boomy bass for the price paid that feels good on my head if I fall asleep and offer great battery life and will hold up a few years of every night heavy use with great noise cancelling feature as I don't like background noise when I try and sleep. If you move up the Anker line you can find models that offer hi res audio but do your research as the device you are using must also offer that higher res format. Even with me being an audiophile my fire does not offer that and these are used for sound from my tablet and sound very good to my ear and natural for my limited use. so I don't need hi res playback but you may but do your research as not every cell phone etc supports that option. Do note that if you ever damage the ear pads, you can buy replacements on Amazon. These phones truly hold up well. In this world of $300-$500 headphones Im happy I can find a good set that hold up and I truly love for much, mush less.. These may not be a big brand name but are built just as well based on my years of use and being a pro audio person. Yes its plastic but so are many of those mega expensive brands. Give these a try as I think you will like them and the price is the happy spot, I think this is the minimum amount needed to be spend to get a good set of great performing wireless headphones that the battery last for days and days . I will always but Anker, very good products! ... show more

  • A great product at a very reasonable price
Color: Blue
I'd initially ordered the Q20, but when I saw this, and found out more about the product specs, I decided to return it and get this instead. The big differences are in the noise-cancelling ability, the sound quality (not that most of us can really tell even if we did a side-by-side, and, most importantly, the greater control with the app. It is very comfortable on the ears. Not that this would speak to durability, but the first trip I used it, it proved how great it was. Our trip back from the Galapagos was a bit of a nightmare on Copa: diversion to Miami because the flight was late, and lost its landing spot (along with ANOTHER Copa flight that left within 20 minutes of ours), and too low on fuel to wait around for another one - after utter chaos at MIA, with few Copa workers, no accommodations for Business-class passengers, more delays ...we ended up being bused to Orlando. So the long battery life and the wonderful NC-feature served to preserve a modicum of sanity. You need to play around with both "Indoor" vs. "Travel" settings, since one works marginally better than the other (hence the need to have that app!) I also looked at the even higher priced Q45 or whatever it's called, which was double the price. I can't imagine it being worth the upgrade, as this works very, very, nicely already. Highly recommend. ... show more

  • Excellent Product
Color: Black
I have been using these headphones for half a year or more. These are my first Soundcore headphones. I must say that these are amazing headphones. I am an audiophile; I love high quality audio and bass. After a while of using these headphones, these are great for the price. They are just as good as the $100 Headphones in my opinion. The sound quality is good, it is a little deep but good bass. There is little leakage unless sound is 70%+. The bass is good for most people; however, I prefer a stronger bass, not too overwhelming though. But with modifications and changes from the app makes it a little better. The Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) is amazing. It blocks a lot of noise especially on the plane. I could barely hear people talking and I did hear some kids making a lot of noise, but that ANC did block a portion of it. I use the ANC a lot especially during trips. The Headphones also have touch controls at the right side of the headphones where you can switch between ANC, Normal, or Transparency Modes which is amazing. Instead of pressing buttons, all I have to do is touch the right side of my headphones with my palm and it switches easily. The transparency mode is decent in my opinion. You can hear some static a little in the background but works great. I can hear my surroundings and listen to music at the same time. However, I prefer taking off the headphones when it comes to talking with someone. These headphones also come with a fabric case and a small pouch. Which is amazing since I do travel, and these are helpful to carry stuff. The small pouch comes with a USB-C charging cable and a 3.5mm jack cable which is great if I run out of battery and used wired mode. The sound quality on the wired mode is much better. The build quality is great. It has metal for the headband and feels very comfortable. Unlike some headphones, I do sweat with constant use, but these headphones didn't make me sweat. These feel great, high quality and I don't feel like these are going to fall off. It lasts long and is durable as long as you don't constantly drop them or anything. These are good for working out since these don't fall off easily and is comfortable. The battery life is amazing! The battery lasted a day with constant use with ANC on and almost lasted a week with little to no use. I use these a lot and the battery last long so I can use these for hours, especially on a long flights or trips. Now for the cons. There is a small issue when connecting to these headphones, sometimes there is a delay and sound doesn't work, so I do have to refresh an app or reconnect my headphones. The built-in microphone on the headphones is not very good, it does work fine, however, the sound quality is not very clear, and the sound does become deep. Sometimes people can barely hear you during calls, but decent in using Google Assistant or Siri. Overall, these headphones are excellent. Good sound quality, ANC, battery, etc. Amazing features on the app and great for the price. There are some cons, but mostly just small and not that big of a deal. These headphones are definitely worth using and I recommend it. ... show more
