What buyers say
Fantastic value for the price
I was skeptical about a mid-range earbud having real ANC, but these surprised me. The sound signature is punchy with clear highs, and the HearID feature really tailors the audio to my ears. Battery lasts me a full workday easily.
Great sound, so-so touch controls
Sound quality is honestly better than earbuds twice the price. My only complaint is the touch controls are too sensitive—I accidentally skip tracks when adjusting the fit. Otherwise very happy with these.
Solid ANC for commuting
Using these daily on my train commute and the ANC does a good job canceling out low-frequency rumble. Voices still cut through a bit, but overall it's very serviceable for the price. App has lots of customization which is nice.
Good but app connectivity issues
Sound and fit are great, but the Soundcore app sometimes fails to connect to update EQ settings. When it works, the personalized sound profile is excellent. Just wish it was more stable.
Best earbuds under $100 I've tried
Compared these to three other budget earbuds and these win easily. Bass is tight, mids are clear, and the case charging is reliable. Highly recommend for anyone not wanting to spend $200+.
