P40i by Anker, Noise Cancelling Wireless Earbuds, Adaptive Noise Cancelling to Environments, Heavy Bass, 60H Playtime, 2-in-1 Case and Phone Stand, IPX5, Wireless Charging, Bluetooth 5.3

Anker has long been a trusted name in the world of earbuds, and for good reason. They’re dependable, well-built, and offer sound quality that rivals brands twice the price. My previous pair—the Liberty Soundcore 4 NC—were superb, until they mysteriously disappeared after my nephew took a shine to them. They’re now presumably enjoying life somewhere behind the sofa, alongside several biros and the odd 50p piece. This latest pair is every bit as impressive. The audio is crisp, the noise cancellation works a treat (ideal for drowning out the neighbour’s DIY ambitions), and the battery life is frankly heroic. They’re comfortable, stylish, and do exactly what they promise without fuss. And, in true British fashion, there’s even a linguistic perk: the name “Anker” is perfect for muttering under your breath when someone’s being difficult! **Verdict:** Reliable, refined, and reassuringly good value. Anker remains the brand to beat.

Only day 2 of usage so I can’t speak for battery life yet, but … Sound quality - utterly stunned at how wide the soundstage is and clarity of all frequencies, from the bass to mid to treble. I’ve been using many (I keep losing them) A90 Pro cheapos whose noise cancelling never worked and sound quality was always variable. I love the app which did an analysis of my hearing and gave me a custom EQ. Noise cancelling - again, utterly brilliant. In auto mode it works a treat and in manual mode on max setting, the kitchen fan virtually disappears. It’s not quite like mu Bose on ear QC headphones but very impressive at this price point (£38 at the time of writing). Case - very clever little case with what was a strange pull up notch which my son discovered and told me it is a phone stand! And I notice the bottom of the case has a rubberised bit that stops it moving about - very clever. App - again very user friendly and intuitive with loads of functionality - from EQ to the brilliantly useful flexibility of being able to set what taps down what functions. Fit - the fit is perfect for my adult ears. Like all things in-ear the key is to find the correct sized rubber / silicone bits (of which it comes with many variations) to properly seal into the ear canal - reducing noise and improving fit. Downside - not as responsive to taps as the A90s were but for now I’m wondering if it’s me just getting used to a difference in responsiveness?🤷‍♂️ I’ll update this review as I experience them for longer, but first impressions are of a very high quality product. Bought a second set for my son. Especially as I find the volume is 1/2 of what it needed to be on the A90 pros due to better sound and actual working ANC! Update 12-Sep-25: battery life is stunningly good, ANC works flawlessly, no connection issues - in fact I have it connected to my laptop and phone at the same time. a VERY happy customer

Good earbuds. Comfortable, good sound and very good battery life. Excellent value for money.

Easy to set up, fantastic sound, great noise cancelling ability and brilliant for the gym. Earbuds do not fall out of ear due to the multiple size inserts included in the package. Unlike some other earphones that have been overly sensitive, pausing music and even making calls whilst in use these earphones do not do that. The touch is adequate and responsive yet does not get set off by an accidental rub, hair or earrings touching the interface (ladies you probably relate!) Love the colour I have chosen, grey neutral tone works with all of my outfits. For the price, these are a really great earphone.

I switched from Apple to Android and so had to leave my airpods behind as they just do not work with Samsung (by design, it's not just you if your trying and failing to use Airpods with a non-Apple device!) after watching many, many YouTube videos, I noticed these were just about every tech reviewers "budget bargain", purchased on sale at £33 with the confidence that if they werent to my taste, I could just send them back. I will be keeping these! To disclaimer, I am not an audiophile, I am a niche listener as I am a bass head. I love the feeling of my brain being jiggled in place, bass so hard you feel like any fillings you have are at risk of being shaken out of your teeth. It's not for everyone, and not for the average listener. These pair to your device (at least on Android) exactly like Airpods, as soon as you open them, pop up on your phone asking to pair, you are then prompted to download the Soundcore app, this is vital to the listening experience! Run through set up and firmware updates (will prompt you what to do) and the led bar on the front of the case will react to show you it's updating (really nice feature!). You then want to set up "HearingID", this will take you through a hearing test (doubt medically accurate) to ascertain what hertz range you can and can't hear so it can adjust your profile to you specifically. Complete that and enjoy. Pros: - yes they have the silicon tips that go down into your ear, but much to my pleasant surprise, no uncomfortable inner ear pressure sensation! I'm confident I could wear these for hours and hours without any discomfort! - sound quality, I would describe these as bright and full in the main. No tinny muddy notes picked up across my testing of various genres. I also tested a song that goes down to 20/30hz, and the bass was still very much rumbly and controlled, no blurring or static type effect, I would say these are a solid choice for a bass head that doesn't want to carry their expensive headphones out in public but also doesn't want to sacrifice hearing the bass to their favourite songs. I would summarise the sound stage as "If Airpods had bass capability" - honestly think these may well be the best everyday carry for the vast majority of headphone users, considering their price point, I honestly believe Anker have performed magic here, I have had £100+ pairs that don't sound as full, bassy and clear as these! I would say these are better than Beats buds, or basic Airpods, which Anker should be very proud of considering once more people have tried these, they will question if they want to use Airpods again other than for the fashion statement. Cons: - the built in 'phone stand' flip up thing isn't going to be useful for 99% of users, any phone case will probably be too big to fit with any stability. - the ANC isn't going to win any awards anytime soon. When compared with Bose or Apple Pros, it's noticeably weaker on this feature, so if your buying these to absolutely silence everything around you, you will most likely need to look elsewhere. TLDR: Better sound than base model Airpods, actually have a surprisingly wide sound stage, you can hear even the most boosted of bass and feel the rumble, make a perfect every day carry, £100-150 pair of headphones for half the price or less. ANC could be better. Absolutely buy them, especially on sale.

Very happy with them , as good if not better than more expensive ones.

ANC feature is worst as if it does not exist.

حلوة جدا و صوتها واضح و المكالمات فيها كويسه و ال Noise cancelation حلو و انا شاريها من يوم السبت النهارده الاربع و لسه مشحنتهاش و ال case لسه فيها شحن يكفي يوم كمان مثلا

À première vue ( et après premiers tests) ils ont l’air d’être qualitatifs. À voir comment ils tiennent sur la longue durée
