The Soundcore Anker Life Q20 headphones really surprised me with how much value they pack in. The sound quality is clear and well-balanced, with rich bass that makes music and movies more immersive without drowning out vocals or details. The active noise cancellation works impressively well for the price—blocking out background chatter, traffic, and low hums so I can stay focused whether I’m working or traveling.Comfort is another highlight. The ear cups are soft and lightweight, making it easy to wear them for hours without any discomfort. The battery life is outstanding too—I can go days on a single charge, and the quick charge feature comes in handy when I’m in a rush.Overall, the Life Q20 is a fantastic choice if you’re looking for wireless headphones that combine great sound, strong noise cancellation, and excellent comfort, all at a very affordable price. Highly recommended.

I’ve been using these headphones for 4 years now – I love them. Sound quality is good, noise cancelling is good, they sync easily with my phone and other tech. They still hold a charge and I only need to plug them in occasionally. Great product for the price. My only issue is that the foam ear covers are starting to flake – I don’t think this is necessarily an issue with the product , just natural wear and tear. I wanted to buy new ear covers but I ended up ordering a whole new pair because they upgraded the charger from micro to usb-c. I will definitely keep the old pair as well!

These are great for the cost. I got them primarily for the noise cancellation to use at the gym. That part works great, it really blocks out the sound. Music sounds great and you can change many settings using the app. It connects effortlessly to my phone and works well for music, audiobooks etc.Cons: it doesn’t get as loud as I’d like. It’s decently loud but I find myself wanting to keep pushing the button to make the music a smidge louder. One of the buttons changes the settings from noise cancellation to transparency mode to normal. There is a ding signaling that the mode has changed but sometimes I can’t tell which mode the headphones are in. I just keep pushing the button until it sounds how I want it to. Otherwise to be sure you can choose the mode in the app. Also phone calls on these are a no. That’s not what I bought them for so it’s not a big deal but it doesn’t block out background noise while on calls.You can change the EQ settings in the app but it doesn’t always save the settings, so you have to redo it. Kinda annoying but not a deal breaker. I like the silver color and the cushions are comfortable around my ears.I am not super particular about sound, and these work for me. If you are very particular about being able to make your own settings and adjustments or if you want something really loud, these may not be for you.

(Update 9/9: last night I was enjoying a podcast on these, and they were working great as usual. Suddenly, I heard a weird burst of static in my left ear. I turned the volume on my phone down, thinking it may have been coming from there. There was another burst of static. Hmm. I did a full restart on my iPhone 14 Plus, and on the headphones. More static. Oh no… I called Amazon, and they were great as always about arranging a return. This morning, I tried the Q20s again. No static. None. I called Anker and was on hold for awhile- about 20 minutes- but when I did get through, remarkably, *it was to a live human being*, and this human being was knowledgable, and took the time to answer all of my questions. Remarkably, he also did not try to sell me their priciest (and newest) pair of headphones, the Space 1s. He suggested, in fact, after listening to what I am wanting in a pair of headphones- decent sound, decent volume, good noise cancelling- that I get another pair of Q20s. Our conversation took place over the Q20 headphones. (By the way- not a nanosecond of static. And none since.) He also explained the Anker warranty. Any time any Anker product is purchased via Amazon, the warranty is immediately activated. You don’t need to call Anker, send anything in, go online- nothing. The warranty starts as soon as your purchase is made. The warranty covers 18 months of product life. I am still considering purchasing the three year warranty offered by Amazon on top of that, as with my luck, the plastic “headband” (the crescent shaped piece of adjustable plastic that goes over your head) will disintegrate on day one of the 19th month.I was really impressed by the customer service I received throughout this phone call, and *really* appreciated that a live human being took my call. He was easy to understand, and obviously well-versed on his company’s products. And also he didn’t try to sell me ten things, or get me to sign up for anything or download anything. I am finding that this kind of service is becoming very rare these days.I do think I am going to purchase another pair of Q20s, as I really do like them. So far, they have shown zero sign of the ear cups separating or the plastic weakening or any part of them becoming compromised at all. And no more static in the left ear. Why did that happen- I’ll never know, I suppose. But it is good to know that Anker stands behind their products, AND that a person actually answers the phone when you call. (Can you imagine?). I have had to deal with the “customer service” agents when I finally got through at Sony and that experience, sadly, convinced me to never purchase anything manufactured by Sony again. This experience with Anker, even though it did involve discussing a seemingly one-time malfunction in my headphones, has made a loyal customer out of me. Will update after the second pair of Ankers. Thank you!)I share a wall with my next door neighbor. Luckily, there is no one on the other side of me. There has never been an issue with the tenants in this unit making any kind of noise, and I have lived in my apartment since 2016. If you were in my apartment, you wouldn’t even know anyone lived next door. Everything had been nice and tranquil as far as that apartment was concerned, for years. That is, until recently.Ever experienced the joys of getting unwillingly serenaded by someone’s throbbing subwoofer? The thing about being subjected to a stereo with a subwoofer going, is that the music might be barely audible, but you can *feel* the bass notes physically, especially if the stereo and subwoofer are physically nearby. And that is what is happening to me, right now. There are constant bass throbbings coming through the wall, coming from the apartment that had for so long been perfectly quiet. The music itself really isn’t loud enough to be a nuisance. But the low frequency pulsations of the bass certainly *are* a nuisance. Apparently, the woman who owns that apartment has turned it over to her kids for who knows how long. Her kids are in their early 20s. Their stereo is never off, so their subwoofer is never off.I tried asking them to please realize they have neighbors, and their subwoofer is bothering their neighbors, and could they *please* limit the hours when they play their stereo. They just snarled something, and slammed the door in my face. They then started playing their stereo louder- not a lot louder, but noticeably louder. I next requested that the building Super speak to them. He did. They turned their stereo off for a few moments, after he spoke with them. I then heard the sound of something heavy being hurled against our mutual wall. Then, the stereo started up again. It was playing at a slightly lower volume. But the bass was still vibrating the wall.There had been an issue, several years ago, with problem tenants right above me, who REALLY blasted their stereo with their powerful subwoofer at all hours. They were also selling drugs, and a stream of “America’s Most Wanted” types were coming and going also at all hours. They used the back parking lot as a stolen car storage lot. Their “guests” started fires in the garbage cans in the lobby, after nodding out and dropping lit cigarettes into them, as they sat in the chairs out there. You don’t want to know what they were doing in the laundry room. The list of their unpleasantness goes on and on. This went on for seven years.The HOA here did nothing about them. Nothing. None of the HOA members lived in this state, so all they did was collect our money, and ignore our phone calls and emails about these nuisance, and dangerous, tenants. During this time, I developed PTSD, which was diagnosed by a psychiatrist, along with anxiety disorder and chronic depression. I rarely slept, and could barely function at my jobs. Finally, after seven years, there was a change in HOA personnel. Eventually, the problem tenants were evicted. I could hardly believe how peaceful it then became here.Thinking they would have my back, I emailed the current HOA regarding the current situation with the eternally pulsating stereo. I had recently noticed some “please be courteous to other tenants, and keep your noise down between 10pm and 8am” hand written notices posted around the lobby and in the hallways. I don’t know if they are aimed at these particular tenants, but it seems as if this building again has some residents who are inspiring complaints.The HOA told me, basically, that I was on my own. The HOA just told me to keep “negotiating” with the neighbors, who had already demonstrated they could care less if they are bothering me. I will be checking on legal representation this following week, as I am disabled, and my disability was caused in part by the constant unpleasant behavior I was subjected to by the tenants upstairs when the HOA did nothing years ago for so long, though I emailed and called them about their activities, which clearly were in violation of the HOA bylaws, over and over again. It looks like I have another situation like that on my hands again.However! I thought- what can I do that can help me right now? I typed “sound canceling wireless headphones” into the Amazon search bar, and found a lot of choices. Most of the results were far beyond my means, as I am on a fixed income, and it is also the end of the month. But the constant throbbing of the bass right into my physical form through my bedroom wall was starting to literally make me sick. Google the effects that constant low frequency sounds- even when these sounds are not audible- have on the human body. These kind of sound waves are not good for human health, especially in the long term. Needless to say, I felt very vindicated after reading the findings of these scientific studies.The reviews for the Soundcore Anker Life Q20 headphones were predominantly positive. The review that really encouraged me to go for it was the one mentioning the work colleagues who seemed to possess no indoor voices, and who constantly and loudly discussed basketball results et al at the top of their lungs without a care as to who they might be bothering with the volume of their voices. I could totally relate to that story. I used to work in a call center, where you made your living by being on the phone, so you needed to be heard by clients, and you needed to hear who you were talking to. This call center had an open floor plan, so we were in low-walled cubicles, but if someone stood up and shouted, even if they were on the other side of the room, you would hear them clearly from where you were. I found that I was surrounded by the kind of people who thought that yelling across the work floor to a distant friend about the softball game their kid had played the previous evening, while they were standing basically right next to me while I was on a call, was perfectly ok. These people weren’t adults. They were like giant toddlers, with no filter. Many of them were in their late forties and early fifties. When I later would ask them- politely- to be more cognizant of their volume level of their voice, as I was attempting to do my job, they became outraged. The nerve of me, to attempt to request they be considerate of their co-workers! Lol. So reading that these headphones had helped in that situation (I wish I had had them when I had been working at the call center) right then and there I thought that’s it- I am ordering these headphones, and right now.And I am so glad I did! I was happily surprised, as they are not expensive headphones, at their ability to block out ambient sound. I usually run a white noise soundtrack in the background when I am home. I had turned it on automatically this morning, and started answering my emails. I hadn’t realized I had boosted the volume on the white noise a bit too much, as I had put on and fired up my new Anker headphones before switching on the receiver. I took the headphones off for a moment to adjust my hair at one point, and was amazed, as the white noise was playing far too loudly- far louder than I would ever play it. Had I been using my regular J Lab wireless earbuds, I would have heard that it had been turned up too much right away. I actually dashed into my bedroom to turn down the receiver, as I felt bad for MY neighbors!As far as the subwoofer- so far, I (knock wood) haven’t been able to hear it. At all. I have had the headphones and the white noise going in my bedroom, and I took a break from my work (I work from home) after lunch to read ,and hang out with the kitties. I didn’t hear any boom boom boom at all. I had heard them playing the stereo earlier, when I had been wearing my regular earbuds, so I am happy to report that these Anker headphones really appear to be helping.The headphones were delivered this morning, so I can’t attest as to their long-term performance, or their performance under various conditions (if they turned up their stereo up extra loud, my wearing the headphones without the white noise running, etc.) but so far, I am VERY satisfied with their performance. I was shocked at how fast they charged, and I have been wearing them for hours, yet they are still showing a full charge. They are comfortable to wear. I have a regular sized head, and I am picky about over the ear headphones. A lot of them give me a headache: these, so far, have not. They are nice and snug, so they keep the ambient noise out, but are not excessively tight. I actually fell asleep during my after lunch break hanging out with the cats, which is unusual for me to do with over the ear headphones.Cons: the instructions for the controls for the headphones are rendered in a “cartoon” style, so that was a bit odd, but not too difficult to figure out. The max volume is pretty good, and I like my headphones to get loud. I don’t usually listen to music on headphones. There is a “bass boost” feature (a hard to understand voice sort of croaks “bass up” when you push the button with the triangle on it between the up/down volume buttons, and “normal”- I think that’s what it says- when you turn the extra bass off) but this feature doesn’t seen to make a huge difference. It does make voices sound richer and fuller. –Ok- I just tested the headphones with music. I chose to play “Wardance” by Killing Joke, as I know that song well, and yes, the “bass up” feature does make a noticeable difference. But as far as music goes- these headphones, for an old punk like me, would need to get a LOT louder, when playing music, for my taste. But that is a subjective thing, and I really didn’t buy them to play music, but to listen to podcasts and to watch movies and YouTube stuff, and of course to block out that *&^%$!! subwoofer.I’ve only had one phone call while wearing the headphones. I wasn’t crazy about how the other person sounded- they sounded kind of “tinny,” and distant- but according to them, they could hear me clearly. So I guess they work fine there, too. —EDIT: I have taken other phone calls with these headphones on after that one initial call. The voice on the the other end at the beginning of the call was a bit crackly, but this happens often with my carrier. After a few moments on the call, I could hear the caller perfectly. I make and receive calls with these Anker headphones all the time now. I always begin the call by saying “I’m wearing a new headset- I just want to make sure- can you hear me ok?” I am always assured that I can be heard just fine. A friend of mine, who is used to my cheaper earbuds on our calls, has told me repeatedly that my voice sounds much clearer on our calls with these headphones.PROS: these headphones are the fastest charging electrical anything I have ever owned- period. It’s actually kind of freaky how fast these things charge. It’s great. They also hold a charge the longest amount of time of any electrical thing I’ve ever owned. I wore them all night to block out the thump thump of the subwoofer and, after six or seven hours of sleeping, I checked their charge level on my iPhone. Their battery level was still showing as a solid green circle meaning- they were still at, or nearly at, 100% charge. That’s impressive.One of the reviews mentioned these headphones don’t come with an ON/OFF switch. They do. Left and Right headphone ear cup side orientations are marked inside the ear cups with an “L” and an “R.” The power switch is on the Left side cup, right above the “NC” (noise canceling) switch, which I always leave switched on. Volume Up and Down, and the triangle-marked button, the Bass up or down switch, are located on the Right side cup.Their Noise Canceling capability is VERY impressive, given their low price point. There are times when I can *just barely* hear the bass from next door. But really- it’s negligible, compared to what it was. I’m also going to take some other steps to help deal with this situation, but until then, these headphones have given me back the ability to have some nice, unbroken sleep, which is worth its weight in gold.I will update my review if something drastically changes regarding the performance these headphones. But right now- I am really happy I ordered these. I placed my order around midnight, and Amazon got them to me at around noon the next day. I’m really glad of this, as not having to endure that subwoofer- let’s just say these headphones arrived just in time to save my last nerve.I am happy with the purchase of these headphones, and highly recommend them. Thank you.
Isla Rucando –
Really nice I would say really good quality headphones for the price. I think you’re getting a great deal and the sound is really nice on them and they’re just really comfortable. The noise canceling is pretty good too.
Paula –
I’ve only used for a couple of weeks and I’m loving them. They were easy to set up and connect. They’re comfortable. They’re a bit big for my head, but work just fine. I’ve used them around the house listening to music and an audiobook and while mowing. The noise cancellation was unbelievable. I barely heard the mower and could clearly hear the music and audiobook. I would definitely recommend and buy again.
Yash Pandya –
Best headphones I have owned! Better than JBL
The sound quality and adjustments are best. They might seem price but are worth it. Have been using them for a year and have used them in gym, while running on track, indoors as well.Only thing is that the cotton on both ears has now started to tear off after a year’s use.

Fantastische Kopfhörer Q20 🙂
Ich habe die Soundcore Q20 Kopfhörer jetzt seit ca. einer Woche. Dabei sind mir folgende Vorteile aufgefallen, auf welche ich nun näher eingehen möchte:• Akkulaufzeit• Klangqualität• Komfort• Aussehen• Stabilität/Verarbeitungsqualität• GeräuschunterdrückungAKKULAUFZEIT:Ich habe die Kopfhörer täglich von einer Stunde bis zu 3-4 Stunden am Stück verwendet und sie geben einfach nicht nach. Der Akku ist noch am gleichen Stand wie beim Ersten Tag. Es ist erwähnenswert, dass der Akku bei eingeschalteter Geräuschunterdrückung viel schneller leer wird, da sie tatsächlich AKTIVE Geräuschunterdrückung haben und mehr Energie verbrauchen (logisch). Ich muss Anker dafür loben, dass sie diese Kopfhörer als 40 Stunden haltbar vermarkten, da diese Laufzeit genauer ist, wenn die Geräuschunterdrückung EINgeschaltet ist. Ohne Geräuschunterdrückung können sie problemlos mehr als 60 Stunden halten. Es ist immer toll, wenn eine Firma etwas unterbewirbt und mehr liefert.KLANGQUALITÄT:Diese Kopfhörer klingen viel besser, als sie es in dieser Preisklasse sollten. Ich würde mich nicht als Audiophilen bezeichnen, aber ich habe Erfahrung mit den Bose SoundLink Over-Ear oder den Apple Airpods Pro. Abgesehen davon, dass sie etwas mehr Bass haben, als ich mir wünschen würde, erledigen diese Kopfhörer einen ausgezeichneten Job dabei, Bässe, Mitten und Höhen in so ziemlich allem hervorzubringen. Nichts klingt ertränkt oder überbelichtet. Ich habe diese Kopfhörer hauptsächlich für Multimedia-Konsum (Filme, Videospiele, Musik usw.) gekauft. Sie haben genau die richtige Menge Punch im Tieftonbereich, um Dinge wie Explosionen oder basslastige Soundeffekte wirklich zum Leuchten zu bringen. In diesem Fall macht der stärkere Tiefton Sinn. Stimmen klingen kristallklar, da die Mitten nicht von den Tiefen oder Höhen erstickt werden, wie bei einigen teureren Kopfhörern… Die Höhen sind meiner Meinung nach das Highlight dieser Kopfhörer. Viele Budget-Kopfhörer neigen dazu, sehr “blechern” zu klingen, mit scharfen, harten Höhen, um den übermäßig gesättigten Bass auszugleichen, aber diese schaffen es gut, sowohl die Mitten als auch die Höhen ausreichend prominent zu halten (trotz des kräftigeren Basses).KOMFORT:Ich habe im Laufe der Jahre viele Over-Ear- und On-Ear-Kopfhörer besessen und verwendet, und ich kann hier nicht drumherumreden: Diese sind die bequemsten Kopfhörer, die ich je benutzt habe. Ich hatte erwartet, dass ich sie “einspielen” muss, basierend auf dem, was einige andere Bewertungen sagten, aber sobald ich diese aufgesetzt habe, war ich angenehm überrascht, wie weich und leicht sie sich anfühlen (ohne billig oder wackelig zu wirken). Und ich trage eine Brille!AUSSEHEN:Es gibt nicht viel zu sagen über das Aussehen dieser Kopfhörer. Ich würde nicht sagen, dass Sie damit auf der Straße Aufmerksamkeit erregen werden, aber für den Preis, den sie kosten… Ich sage nur, sie hätten viel schlimmer aussehen können. Ich habe Kopfhörer gesehen, die dreimal so teuer sind und die komplett unansehnlich sind. Die Q20 sehen sauber und minimalistisch aus, ohne ihren niedrigen Preis preiszugeben.STABILITÄT/VERARBEITUNGSQUALITÄT:Obwohl ich meine Geräte nicht grob behandle (egal wie wenig sie kosten mögen), muss ich sagen, dass diese überhaupt nicht schwach wirken. Ich habe einen milden Belastungstest gemacht, indem ich beide Ohrmuscheln so weit auseinander gezogen habe, wie ich mich wohl fühlte, und konnte etwa 10 Zoll Breite erreichen. Ich glaube nicht, dass jemand einen Kopf hat, der so breit ist, aber wenn Sie das tun, werden diese definitiv passen. Die Verarbeitungsqualität fühlt sich großartig an, und ich habe das Gefühl, dass diese definitiv eine Weile halten werden (und ich werde diese Bewertung aktualisieren, wenn sich das ändert, haha).GERÄUSCHUNTERDRÜCKUNG:Diese Kopfhörer haben tatsächlich eine aktive Geräuschunterdrückung, ABER… ich benutze sie buchstäblich fast NIE. Hier ist der Grund: Sie brauchen es nicht. Die Kopfhörer sind so konstruiert, dass sie auch ohne aktive Geräuschunterdrückung eine Menge Umgebungsgeräusche ausblenden. Leider gibt es einen signifikanten Lautstärkeabfall, wenn die Geräuschunterdrückung aktiviert ist. Der Bass nimmt ebenfalls ab, was ihn gleichmäßiger mit den Mitten und Höhen macht (was für einige von Vorteil sein könnte).Fazit:Es gibt eigentlich nur einen “Nachteil”, den ich nicht erwähnen wollte, und das ist die Tragetasche, die mit den Q20 geliefert wird. Es ist eigentlich nichts daran auszusetzen, aber ich wollte nur erwähnen, dass sie früher mit einem harten Tragekoffer geliefert wurden (laut einigen älteren YouTube-Bewertungen), und ich bin ein wenig verärgert, dass wir neuere Käufer den nicht bekommen. Alles in allem, für die 30 Euro im Angebot, die ich für diese Kopfhörer bezahlt habe, fällt mir kein Grund ein, sie nicht uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen. Sogar für den Normalpreis von 60 Euro, ist der Preis komplett gerechtfertigt. Sie klingen großartig, die Akkulaufzeit ist unglaublich lang, sie sehen ordentlich aus, sind solide verarbeitet und sie haben sogar eine aktive Geräuschunterdrückung für Situationen, die nach etwas mehr Stille verlangen. Also wie gesagt, absolut Top

Waar voor z’n geld
Top! Alleen jammer dat het geen USB C aansluiting heeft. Accu gaat echt heel lang mee en de noise cancelling werkt top

Newest version is awesome!
Ordered the same headphones 3 years ago. My wife loved them. Problem is she wears them to sleep. She broke them a couple times and I was able to glue them back together. This last time, they were done. I ordered this new pair. They have upgraded them from the original pair. They are better sounding, have better plug-in ports and have a new headband to earcup support design. My wife absolutely loves them for sleep and noise cancelling air travel!!
