    Customers find these wireless headphones deliver excellent sound quality, effectively cutting out traffic sounds, and appreciate their well-built construction and value for money. The earbuds fit any size and shape of ear comfortably, and customers find them easy to use, particularly noting the simple Bluetooth pairing process. Battery life and functionality receive mixed reviews - while some praise the outstanding battery life, others report fast-draining batteries, and while the Bluetooth function works well, some experience issues with the hand side earplug.

    What a great set of headphones

    What a great set of headphones
    Wireless headphones, Anker Bluetooth headphones, Slim Lightweight Wireless Soundbuds with Magnetic Connection, IPX4 Water Resistant Sport Headset with Mic, works with iPhone, iPad, Samsung, Nexus, HTC and More I've owned these for about a week and have given them a thorough going over in the gym and in day to day use. I'm hugely impressed at the sound quality these offer at this price point. My reference point is my high end Sennheiser in ear headphones which are twinned with an Oppo HA-2 amp so I'm not a stranger to high quality audio. It also means most of my music is recorded in either lossless or high fidelity AAC format. As these are bluetooth, I've only listened to them using my iPhone 7 as a source. I'm surprised by the comments of some reviewers that these are light in the bass section. I listen to mainly techno / house music and have found these to sound great at the low end. The crucial thing for bass with any in ear headphone is to obtain a good seal with the eartips; these fit my ears fantastically (Anker provide 4 different bud sizes, which helps), meaning I get very good noise isolation and also good bass. A lot of modern headphones are overly bass heavy (in particular, the Beats headphones) and if that's what people are used to they may sound lighter. In my view, though, that's a very good thing. The high end, conversely, is nothing short of impressive. My type of music tends to have most content at the high and low ends of the spectrum and these perform superbly - crisp and precise without being harsh or tinny. To test the midrange, I have listened to some Coldplay and Pearl Jam and (for the price point and given they are wireless) found these to be a very pleasant listen. They are also extremely comfortable, partly because of the soft rubber tips and partly because they are lightweight. You hardly notice them, which is great for the gym. The rubber wings and well-fitting eartips hold the headphones securely in your ears and, perhaps because they are so light, I haven't noticed the usual problem I have with headphones in the gym which is that they slowly work their way out of your ears while running. Other good points is that they are magnetic, so they clip together round your neck when you're not using them, and that they come with both a clip and a small rubber button that allows you to take a bit of length out of the cable to stop it flapping around which you can see in my photo). If I had to suggest improvements, the only thing I would say is that the small plastic block that has the buttons on it is quite large and not quite as sleek as some designs, so it is noticeable (though it didn't detract from their use in any way). However, that may be because it holds a decent size battery to ensure good battery life - as I say I've been using them for a week quite intensively and they are only now needing a charge. I've also made some calls using them and audio quality is very clear. The people I called said that sound was coming through very clearly. I recommend these wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a good quality set of headphones for day to day use - and in fact have already done so to two colleagues, both of whom have bought sets and are very happy. At £20, they are cheap enough to buy a couple of pairs so one can stay in the gym bag and the other can accompany you as a hands free set and headphones for use with your phone. Again, Anker offer astonishingly good build quality with great performance at an excellent price point. I'd also say that my experience of their customer service is that they are extremely good and very helpful. Update following further use: I've now had these for a few months and I remain very impressed indeed by them. I've recommended them to several colleagues and they've been universally well received. They are definitely not light in the bass department. If you are struggling to get good bass, review your choice of earbud and how you are wearing them - they do need to have a good seal, and you may not be using the right size bud or getting them far enough into your ear. Do be careful though!

      Ordered these after losing my Lightning Adapter for my iPhone 7 Plus on holiday. Previously used Sennheiser MM30i earphones for over 3 years and they finally broke after constant daily use, so perfect time to try these out. Never used Anker products before and I'm usually quite skeptical about Amazon reviews as many people get these items for free, but my siblings always raved about Anker, so I took the plunge on the Anker earphones following a huge price drop (bought for £15.99!), thought I'd give them a go, and boy oh boy am I impressed!
      They came in a small box with the earphones, a suede carry pouch, 3 different sized ear hooks, 4 different sized ear canal buds, and a shirt clip, along with a small micro USB charger wire. They was really well packaged and I was blown away with the initial presentation. Then came the initial testing - earphones are really simple to use with the remote, and pairing to my iPhone and iPad was effortless. It has volume control and change song functions, and the microphone picks up my voice quite clearly with little/no interference even in crowded/loud areas.
      Sound quality is very impressive, I've found them to be well balanced in the lows and highs with ample bass - I'm a heavy hip-hop/R&B listener so I've really put these through their paces and I'm blown away!
      I used the Small earbuds and removed the hooks as I have small ears and the hooks hurt my ears, and I found them to be much comfortable without the hooks.
      I've been using them daily for over a month, and I am so impressed! Charge time is around 1.5 hours, and battery life is averaging 7-8 hours with loud music and phone call use - more than enough to get through the day and charge when I get home. Overall, I'm incredibly incredibly impressed with these earphones and unless Anker release some updated models, I think Anker have a customer for life! Excellent value for money, I strongly and sincerely recommend that all of you sitting on the fence or contemplating on purchasing more expensive earphones give these a try - at £15.99 you don't really have much to lose!
    • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 January 2018
      Well, I am just overwhelmed by the quality of these 'headphones'. I have taken some convincing that stuffing these sound isolating things in your ears is a good idea but these are so comfortable that I don't really know why I have been so slow to adopt them. I have tried others much more expensive than these, also for sale on Amazon - but although they were not particularly uncomfortable on occasion I found the sound quality, let's just say variable even close to the source device and definitely not great when away from the source e.g. in the Gym. That's why I opted for a cheap pair because I NEED the Bluetooth connectivity at the Gym but past experience told me I would be disappointed - clearly I am not!
      They paired up with my LG G5 and G3 phones seamlessly by the way. Range is amazing.
      I have wired Sennheiser (overly expensive!) and Creative and Sony earbuds (not in-ear) but these are better or at least as good sound quality. The available Volume is way beyond anything you'll ever need though perhaps that's more to do with LG phone (???) but the earpieces handle it very well whatever the reason.
      I will post a report on Gym use soon.
      GYM USE
      Still delighted by these headphones - been used at the Gym every day and no problems at all. They work great up to 10 meters away in the Gym before there is some occasional break up of sound. 10 meters is sufficient though or is for me. Maybe better positioning of the source phone (generally mine is stuffed in a bag under a weights rack!)would improve that? I find them comfortable and very secure in the ear. Sound quality is excellent, as is sound insulation (very important in a noisy Gym).I have had no problems with sweat in any way and on my daily rides of an 45 minutes to an hour or so on the stationary bike I do SWEAT! They are also very secure when running though make sure you find the right "in-ear hooks" for your ear size - several sizes are supplied. I actually found both the ear tips and in ear hooks (medium) which are fitted to the earphones as standard suited me. I haven't used the phone connection but do use the volume and skip and replay track buttons a lot which work better than anything I have ever used including some posh Apple iPod headphones.
      I haven't tested battery longevity - I recharge them after every session or two. Just because I can!
      I'd love to try some Jaybirds and see if there is a difference though it is difficult to see how you could improve on these Anker headphones.
      For every day Gym use these are in my view unbeatable quality and value!

      Reviewed in India on 9 October 2018
      You won't get much better than this for the price point. Even if you do, you lose the quality control that Anker provides
      Pros:
      1) Great build quality
      2) Excellent noise isolation
      3) In line controls are tactile and fairly easy to access in every day situations
      4) Good discreet cable management and decent aet of earbuds and tips
      5) Lightweight and good fit. Doesn't feel bulky once in ear. No ear fatigue even after hours of listening

      Cons
      1) Charging time is around 2 hours. No fast charging, no Type C charging.
      2) Has some latency when switching between devices especially when switching between Laptop and Phone (no multi point connection). Lesser lag when switching between phones

      Sound quality is great, not hi resolution. The Earbuds do get pretty loud. Quality may improve slightly based on the codecs available on your phone. Overall though it will be enough for most people and music genres. Not meant for hardcore audio philes but do a pretty decent job for the price.

      5.0 out of 5 stars Anker, una garanzia come sempre.
      Reviewed in Italy on 16 June 2017
      Non avevo mai sentito parlare da nessuno di queste cuffie, ma conosco benissimo anker quindi non c'ho pensato due volte a comprarle.
      Così, dopo l'acquisto di 2 PowerCore e 2 PowerLine, ecco le Soundbuds. Packaging come al solito curatissimo e come sempre Anker fornisce il pratico sacchettino/pochette per riporre i propri prodotti durante il trasporto, inoltre in confezione troviamo:
      - Gommini di 4 taglie diverse, fondamentali per adattare bene le cuffie (soprattutto visto che trattandosi di in-ear il suono varia molto in base al corretto inserimento della cuffia);
      - Archetti di 3 taglie diverse, per far aderire l'auricolare al padiglione in modo saldo (fondamentale per quando si fa sport);
      - Cavo micro-usb per la ricarica.

      Gli auricolari suonano, complice probabilmente il buon isolamento, in modo divino se rapportati al prezzo di acquisto. Bassi corposi e medi e alti sempre presenti e ben udibili, non è rato infatti che le usi spessissimo anche a casa in abbinamento al mio portatile o all'iMac.
      L'abbinamento è sempre facile e velocissimo! Accendi il bluetooth, accendi le cuffie e appena clicchi sull'iconcina delle cuffie sei operativo!
      Non ho potuto verificare ancora la veridicità della durata dichiarata ma, sinceramente, vista anche la velocità della ricarica, non mi sono nemmeno posto il problema. Il punto di forza è che non si ha mai paura di strapazzarle, complici probabilmente l'ottima qualità costruttiva (pur essendo leggere, si sente che sono costruite e rifinite bene) e il prezzo ottimo a cui Anker le propone.
      Sono sempre stato scettico riguardo prodotti sotto un certo budget ma, credetemi, questo brand mi ha davvero fatto cambiare idea!

      Reviewed in Spain on 19 May 2020
      Estoy muy satisfecho con estos auriculares. Los compré por un precio menor a 20 € y dos años después siguen dando buenos resultados.
      Para deporte son cómodos, se sujetan bien en el oído y no se caen.
      La calidad del audio es mejorable, pero por este precio no puedes pedir más. Sobre todo en los bajos. Pero son muy versátiles, tanto para escuchar música haciendo deporte, conversaciones manos-libres caminando, o incluso para escuchar música o podcasts en la ducha!
      La batería dura bastante, aunque 2 años después ha ido reduciendo. Aún me aguanta fácilmente 3-4 horas de uso ininterrumpido.
      El apareamiento por bluetooth casi nunca me ha dado ningún problema.
      Los volveré a comprar, y los recomiendo al 100%!

      5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive!
      Reviewed in Australia on 18 June 2020
      Impressive for this price! Sound quality is great and the bass is more than sufficient. I’ve seen other reviews talking about the sound quality but you’re using these for working out so it serves its purpose very well. Isolates outside noise well when in use.

      Love the magnetic snap on the aluminium ear buds. You’ll easily get the perfect fit with the different rubber tips included. It also has a nice attachable clip for your clothes so that the wires stay where you want it to (hardly ever needed it though).Battery lasts as advertised. Charges quickly and has a pouch too.
