Product Information

Hi-Res Audio Certified: Custom oversized 40 mm dynamic drivers produce Hi-Res Audio—a certification only awarded to audio devices capable of producing exceptional sound. Life Q20 active noise cancelling headphones reproduce your music with extended high frequencies that reach up to 40 kHz for extraordinary clarity and detail. The overall experience is far from bad - in fact, it's very decent considering the price - but if your listening enjoyment relies on hearing every little nuance of the music, then you'd be better off investing in a more premium set of cans. We’d advise heading for our guides exploring the best headphones for music or best audiophile headphones for that. Anker Soundcore Life Q20 headphones review: The competition

We even noticed the hiss in a quiet room; it isn't unpleasant (think faint white noise), but it’s a typical byproduct of less-effective ANC. Something strange that we noticed in this scenario, however, is that the quiet room noise seems to get louder when we turn the ANC on. Anker estimates that the headphones can last between 40 and 60 hours on battery depending on your mix of ANC usage, but your results will also vary depending on your volume levels. Disappointing Noise Cancellation Build Quality. These seem solidly made, even though they're quite flexible plastic and I think they'll last me for some time. Finally, I'll tell you that I like these so much that I bought a BT card for my PC. These are pretty good for videoconferences, and they're nice to have while you run a buzzsaw or have screaming children next door and you just want to not be distracted. I'll still prefer my Sennies for mixing, and I still prefer my AT's for ordinary focused PC work, but these cans are exceptionally good. I cannot get over how good they are, affordable or not. Ich habe die Soundcore Q20 Kopfhörer jetzt seit ca. einer Woche. Dabei sind mir folgende Vorteile aufgefallen, auf welche ich nun näher eingehen möchte:Here there a slight dissatisfaction on color choice front!! in an upgrade Q20+ you will have only one color choice!!! Battery life/charge time. These came 80% charged and only took a few mins to get to full 100%, so I imagine charging from a lower % will not take long. But the battery appears to be really good. I'm assuming that's provided you keep the volume low (which you don't NEED to have things really high with these, they're that good). I don't usually have or need volume high on most things, so I expect my battery to last for some time. Time will tell with this one (as I only just got these yesterday), so I may update my review in a few months with an edit. Even after trying the Sony XM4s and Base QCs, those headphones are obviously more refined in terms of sound, but the step up isn’t as big as you would think, I’m able to hear parts of my music that I previously wasn’t aware existed. Press and hold the "Power On" button for 1s-3s until you hear the boot up tone. The headphones will automatically reconnect to the last device. if the headphones do not reconnect to the last device after continuously sending a reconnection signal for 5s, it will enter pairing mode again.

Accessories may not be original but will be compatible and fully functional. The product may come in a generic box.

Disappointing Noise Cancellation

So now coming to the Q20+ I will say it is technology upgrade to meet the demand of current customers. So first you should have a look at specifications comparison table below and then go to my comments on each improved feature. The table cells are merged where specifications are common and highlighted with colors where there is a specs improvement / difference, this will make it time saving and easy for you. The mic offers average intelligibility; when we tested it using the Voice Memos app on an iPhone, we could understand every word we recorded. Unsurprisingly, we heard some Bluetooth audio artifacts, too. On a decent cell signal, callers should be able to understand you without issue. Good Noise Cancellation Is Pricey, But You Can Do Better Today I’ve been using them virtually all day, and they’re still on high battery. In terms of comfort, these fit like a glove, in a whole day's session, I never feel the need to remove or adjust these at all.
