Honestly very surprised by quality and battery life
Battery life is longer than 9 hours. I got them at 630pm charged em for maybe n hour put em on around 730ish and fell asleep with em in and they were at 10% at 10am the next morning. I'm really impressed with the battery life and the fact that I can use either my right or left earbud by themselves and that function isn't only for the right one was a very nice surprise because I use them while at work and can only typically use 1 at a time so when one dies I can just use the other. Haven't bought a pair that does that yet so it's new to me. I enjoy the sound quality and noise cancelling. The sound quality in my honest opinion isnt crazy out of this world but it is really decent. I'm actually impressed by these little things I love the way they fit in my ears, I was contemplating getting over the ear ones because of the way in the ear ones feel and fall out but these ones fit really nicely n snug in my ears so it adds a decent element to the noise cancelling. I love the app and that I can choose what each bud does for the tapping feature. Love the white noise options and how clear the phone calls are. Honestly a W for the price and the quality. You really cannot go wrong for $20. I highly recommend if your on the fence about it these are a solid choice for real. Update 3 weeks later Both still work perfectly. I found the battery life is just insane. I start wearing them around 7am and don't get the "soundcore buds battery at 10%" alert until literally 9 or 10pm. I also found that I can leave my phone inside take my dogs outside and they don't disconnect. Really sweet range and I have not had one single sound glitch or issue at all. For $20.. I'm incredibly happy with these. Usually with other earbuds I've bought for $40 or more the left one dies within the first week. I end up having glitches and the range is always dog shxt. I barely walk out the door and they disconnect and the battery life seems to die on the other ones more each week. It's like I can wear them n hour less and now they barely last 2 hours and takes forever to charge only 3 months of having them. I'd say the soundcore earbuds blow the more expensive ones out the water. The charging case charges quickly and hold charge incredibly well. I maybe have charged them 3x. If you drain em til dead and charge the case for like 10-20 mins they'll last you til the next day it's crazy. I Highly recommend you literally cannot beat the quality for the price. Update Sept. 2025 5months later. Everything above still applies. Both buds still work and I way overwork these things. I'm not exaggerating when I say I have an earbud in more in a 24 hour period then I do not my wife constantly tells me how horrible it is for my ears to wear them and fall asleep with them in the way I do lol and I only charge them once a day, I could probably go once every 2 days if I forgot to charge them once but I choose to charge the case fully for work at night and I've never had the charging case even blink red. They're literally working all day and I switch them back and forth. Not a glitch or anything and the battery life is still top notch and sound quality has not dipped at all. I'm even more baffled that I use them the way I do and they still work like new 5 months later. I actually came here to buy another pair so I can leave a pair at work and one at home so I'm not using one pair to death the way I currently do. Buy em. I have a buddy who has the 10mm driver's and they're not as good as these. If your doom scrolling through Amazon looking for the right ones I'm telling you try these. It's barely $20 if you don't like em you only spent $20 but I'm 100% honest with my review and highly recommend buying these. Your welcome

The PERFECT earbuds for audiophiles on a budget
I’d like to preface by saying that I just barely got these, so this is a first impression review (and also the only review I’ve ever felt compelled to make on Amazon). But I’ve gotta say, I already love these a lot. I’ve never been able to afford good quality earbuds, so I’m constantly looking for better, cheaper options - usually to no avail. But the sound quality of these for the price are FANTASTIC. Easily the best sounding earbuds I have ever owned, coming from somewhat of an audiophile. Not only that, but I also have small ears and tend to avoid earbuds all together due to the fact that earbuds generally really hurt my ears…but these? Light weight, they fit nicely in my ear, and they provide smaller ear cushions as well, which I would usually have to take advantage of and I haven’t had to change them - at least not yet. The app that pairs with them is really nice as well. It has an equalizer that you can utilize to adjust the audio to your own preference - which I personally haven’t had to use, as I actually find the audio out of the box really balanced - and you can also actually reprogram the gestures to pause/play/etc to your liking if you don’t like how they come. The app also has different audios you can listen to, from white noise, to rain, to the ocean, to a forest, etc., which I think is a great, considerate thing to add to the app. Incredibly easy set up as well. You take them out of the case, they blink for a second, and then immediately show up in your list to connect to in your bluetooth settings right out of the box. Nothing complicated at all. They also came fully charged which I was pleasantly surprised with. No having to wait around for them to charge to be able to actually try them upon receiving them. If I had to be nitpicky (as I know I’ve been only saying positive things) I’d say the only thing I’m not overly pleased with is just the fact that the charging case feels a little bit cheap, plastic wise. That being said, I really like the strap that comes attached to the case to put on keys or a carabiner or something of the like (and yes, you can take it off!), and it’s not like I expected the case to have the feel of an airpods case - you get what you pay for. It doesn’t feel like it would break easily, though. Just a bit cheap-feeling to the touch, which isn’t a big deal. Overall I would say that, so far, these are definitely a steal for their price. I happened to get them on sale for $18, but even the list price of $30 is worth it. If you’re wanting good quality wireless earbuds that won’t break the bank, these are definitely them. I’ll make sure to update/edit if my feelings on these change, but as of now, no real complaints! 10/10!!

Not perfect, but well worth their price. I would buy them again if I needed to.
Note: At the time of purchase there was a $10 off coupon available for this product. Other than that, I received no compensation for the purchase or review of this product. TL;DR: You can't go wrong with this price. If you're on the fence between these and a more expensive pair, do yourself a favor. Keep some money in your pocket and pick up a pair of these. It has a few shortcoming for my personal use, but those things may not matter to all users. Either way, the price justifies the lack of these features. I have been using Tozo earbuds for almost a decade now. They were easily my favorite cheap brand to purchase. I have also been using Anker chargers for about the same length of time. Anker acquired TaoTronics a few years ago, whose over-the-ear headphones I had used in the past. Last year, we purchased some Anker over-the-ear headphones and I was immediately impressed with thier quality rivaling some of the leading brands at a fraction of the price. I feel exactly the same about these earbuds. Case - The case is very small and discreet. Since my last pair of Tozo buds died, I had been using the PlayStation Pulse earbuds. That case is extremely bulky and barely fits into a pocket. It's so nice to be back in a small form case. This case is even smaller than the Tozo buds I used to use. It comes equipped with a small "leash." Honestly, it's so small I can't see it being used for much. I prefer a long lanyard that hangs out of my pocket. You may be able to get it around a purse or bag strap so that they can be secured to it. Charging: The case uses a standard USB-C charger. It is located on the back of the unit which can actually cause some instability while charging so they may not want to stand up straight. A very minor detail, but I figured it was worth mentioning. I really wish they had put wireless charging on this case, but the USB-C port seems to be pretty sturdy so I don't see it being an issue anytime soon. Audio - The audio quality is great. Unless your a huge audiophile, you won't notice the difference between these and most high-end earbuds. If anything, they are a little heavier on the bass than the other brands I'm used to. 3D audio isn't the best. I listen to a lot of podcasts. The PlayStation buds are engineered for gaming so they focused a lot on spatial audio making podcasts very immersive with feeling like you are surrounded by what is going on. These Anker buds don't come close to replicating that environment, but the audio quality is still great, and I would rather carry these around for day-to-day usage. Buttons: The buttons are available in two "modes" depending on if you are using one earbud or two. With only one earbud, you can pause/play, answer calls, and decline calls. With two buds in, you can do all that in addition to skipping tracks. I mostly use earbuds while working with only one earbud in. I really wish they had added the track skip feature with a single bud. I also wish they had added a volume control on the bud itself. The buttons are a touch pad on the earbud itself. No physical buttons. Unfortunately, I prefer the physical buttons, especially since no swipe features were added, the use of a touchpad seems unnecessary. I have not fully tested the range of these yet, but I did walk two rooms away from my phone (about 20-30 feet and two brick walls) and the connection didn't stutter at all. Amazon is suggesting I mention the color in my review. They're black. It's black. Great job? What do you want?

Good quality! YMMV with earbud volume and case charging
Well! Had these for (at time of writing) about three months now. I have two pairs of Soundcore earbuds, this A20i and the A40's. The A40's have been flawless. These? Not as much. This could be a result of me using them for sleeping (I'm not doing that with the A40, and I'm absolutely not buying the sleep pair of earbuds, both are too pricey for me to do that!), but I do have a couple downsides with the A20. The first issue, the right earbud has ended up with a bit lower volume than the left after a few weeks of use, and I can't seem to figure out why. There doesn't seem to be any blockage in the mesh itself, from what I can see. Otherwise it's marginal, I notice it, but it's not the end of the world. The second issue, which seems to be a trend with these case designs for wireless earbuds in general, is the charging. It doesn't always engage, or the earbuds are never fully seated to the charger correctly, so they'll end up as being active, despite being in the case. Especially with the left earbud from my instance. I even drop it in to let the magnets do the job, and sometimes that may not work on the first try. Otherwise, sound quality is what you'd expect $20-$30 earbuds to sound like. If you're like me and you have the A40's, you can definitely tell that the A20s are lower quality when you swap back-to-back. But again, that's just how low-cost earbuds are in general. But they're not awful quality! Very passable for the price. I've gone the whole night with the earbuds playing from a full charge and still have about 60% left in the morning - after roughly 7-8 hours. Although some of it could be off/on playback and just standby from nothing playing. Otherwise, since these are under warranty, I'll likely look to get a new set of these earbuds (hi Anker Customer Service, if you're reading this!) Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the product, no disrespect meant, definitely no anger, I just use this differently than what might be expected of typical use. So all in all, your milage may vary depending on how you use the buds.

Good Sound. Excellent battery life. Poor visual feedback.
I consider myself a connoisseur of cheap earbuds, as I have found that there is almost no reliable upgrade in paying for more expensive (passive NR) models. These earbuds continue to prove my theory right. Once again the audio quality is on par with most. Clear, plenty of low end, and a very usable volume sweep. I am accustomed to really high-quality sound from speakers and headphones, and the quality here does not annoy or reduce the quality of my experience. I installed the app to play with EQ settings, but there is really no need, imo. They have about 12 presets, but no custom settings. They are done right, for the most part, as the changes are subtle. But the default curve is totally acceptable. What impresses me most about these is the battery life. I use my earbuds almost exclusively at night for sleeping or in the yard. I have no trouble getting through the whole night on a single charge with these up to and beyond 10 hours on a single charge. They are, by far, the best-lasting buds I have ever used. As mentioned in the literature, a quick 10 minute charge will give you another hour or two of listening, which is really convenient. Passive noise reduction for earbuds is almost entirely a physical property. You need to get a good seal around your ear cups to reduce external noise. These are good, but not great. That said, they do not claim to have any noise reduction, so that is fine. Overall, I do feel that the provide cups did not really suit my large ear canals, and I had to dig through my drawers and find a more suitable fitting pair. Even still, these are not the most snug earbuds and I often have to re-seat them in place. This is not an issue while laying down though, and the small size is more comfortable for sleeping than my previous ones. The one knock against these, and it is a bit of a bummer, is that there is very little visual feedback. There is a light on the front of the charging case that will blink while charging, or go full white when charged. It is not graduated so that you know how much of a charge you have. The buds themselves don't really have any lights on them at all. I appreciate this while using at night, because I really don't need lights while I am using the device. But I would like some feedback related to charging status and connection status on the buds themselves - just a simple red light to show that they are charging, would be great. I think they might flash a single light here and there, but it is too minimal.

One earbud is significantly quieter than the other
I've had these since June 18th of last year. These were really good for the price, sound was a 10, fit was a 10, and the battery life was a tad short but overall they were real nice and I loved them. But after a while the right earbud's volume started to quiet down. It'd get quieter and quieter until having it at halfway volume rendered anything I was trying to hear unintelligible from the right earbud. Sad to say that these buds have effectively run their course. With that being said these are perfect if you don't mind one earbud being 10x quieter than the other. One earbud getting quieter is a major pet peeve with earbuds for me. I dread it happening. I'll be laying these to rest soon and buying a different brand.

Not the worst but not the best…
I bought these because they were fairly inexpensive. I like how well they fit in my ears (they’re not too big), sound quality is pretty decent, and they’re sleek looking/nice. However, they don’t hold a charge for very long. I have to recharge them more frequently than previous brands I’ve had. I have to charge them 3x a week and I only use them for about 3-4 hours a day. I wouldn’t buy them again, but they’re a decent pair if you don’t want to spend a lot of money.

Great at first, deteriorate quickly.
These are great earbuds at first glance; affordable, great sound quality, an app, comfortable, etc. However, if you plan on EVER using just one earbud, you will find that it will quickly become dramatically quieter than the one you use less. I am now on my second pair. The first pair I returned in less than a month and got a replacement thinking it was just a single defect, but now on my second pair, after just less than 12 more hours of playtime on the left earbud, it is already dramatically quieter. If you only plan on using these short term, maybe these are fine, but they will not last and will rapidly lose clarity and volume.

Niet werkende earbud
Een oortje werkte niet. Ik heb contact opgenomen met de fabrikant maar dat was een intense digitale communicatie (alsook verzending) waarin er getwijfeld werd aan mijn oprechtheid betreffende het defecte product. Hopelijk ontvang ik snel een werkende set.

Good headphone in budget
I recently purchased the Soundcore By Ankee A20i Wireless Headphones, and they have exceeded my expectations, especially given their budget-friendly price. The sound quality is impressive, with clear highs and deep bass that rival more expensive models. The headphones are comfortable to wear for extended periods, thanks to the cushioned ear cups and adjustable headband. The Bluetooth connectivity is seamless, and I've experienced no issues with signal drops or lag. The battery life is another highlight, lasting up to 20 hours on a single charge, which is perfect for long trips or daily commutes. Additionally, the built-in microphone provides clear voice calls, making it versatile for both entertainment and work purposes. Overall, the Soundcore By Ankee A20i Wireless Headphones offer exceptional value for money. They deliver high-quality audio, comfort, and reliable connectivity at a fraction of the price of premium brands. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for great performance on a budget.

Excelente
Eu adorei o encaixe no ouvido. Eu o uso pra correr e não tive incomodo ou sensação de que cairia e nem precisei colocar muito fundo no ouvido. O som é bem potente, uso praticamente na metade da capacidade e na rua então... ou isola muito bem ou o som é potente mesmo. A caixinha é linda e ainda não botei pra carregar. Foram 3 usos de mais ou menos 2 horas. Indico.
