soundcore by Anker Space Q45 Adaptive Noise Cancelling Headphones, Reduce Noise By Up to 98%, Ultra Long 50H Playtime, App Control, Hi-Res Sound with Details, Bluetooth 5.3, Ideal for Traveling

I've always been a massive soundcore fan so the review is just a reflection of my experience with their products. I've always found Soundcore product quality to price ratio are unmatched with most top end brands, like Sony, Beats, Sennheiser, the sound profile is always excellent, not too bassy, but has a nice balanced sound. I really like it, it's not changed much over the years. Now the reason I purchased these was because unfortunately broke my Q35 set I've had for five years, and I didn't want to spend £145 on the Space Pro's but I will probably buy them anyway for Christmas. The one thing I will say is PLEASE PLEASE soundcore PLEASE don't follow this silly trend of making them quieter for safety reasons, it ruins the listening experience, sometimes you just love to crank it up, they are starting to get a tad quieter on the overall volume I've found a lot of the expensive ones are terrible to listen to, mainly down to this reason. My Q35s we a lot louder, but since the WHO has set this recommended maximal DB level for safety on ears and integrated it into the app it's took the edge off them, now having said that this can be fixed by downloading Dolby Headphones on Windows 11 in the Microsoft Store, and also Wavelet on Google Play for my android phone, these apps help with the equalizer and the loudness settings and the bass profile, if you like it just that little bit more bassy. The headphones are capable of so much yet they are limited with the poor quality sound profiles in the soundcore app. Now I've got that out of the way, I'll now tell you what I think of the Space Q45 I recently purchased, what can I say they've knocked it out of the park again, the LDAC codec, the bass is excellent, and the highs and mids are very audible. I love a massive range of music, and the Space headphones DO NOT disappoint. I love Soundcore due to the comfort of the earcups on the side of the head, no clamping or uncomfortable feeling when you put them on, the ANC is probably the best I've heard in this price range, but doesn't compare with top end brands. (They are superb though anyway) I can't hear a thing outside of my music. I've owned very expensive headphones so I am not just saying this. The battery life is not accurate but it's still very good. The set came with a power cord (USB type c) connector, and also a beautiful case to protect them, saves laying out money for a decent case. They also come with a wired gold aux cable so you can use them wired (massive pro) The functionality is excellent and they are so easy to set up, they are a good design and you can fold them neatly into the case. They have a good range, and the bluetooth is easy to pair with any device. I don't think I'll ever buy another set, I think I've actually been spoiled with Soundcore products, nothing else quite sounds the same. You have the high-res quality sound and it's a really nice addition, it means you'll be able to listen to those tracks in ultra high quality. I love my new headphones, thanks Soundcore, I also bought a Select 2S bluetooth speaker and it's just as good quality wise, has a lot of weight and quality to it, buy both you won't regret it. Remember the apps though, they make the product even better.

I’ve owned these for over a year now, and the only thing I’ve had to do is change the ear cups due to the frequency I’ve used them (every single day since owning them, easily 5+ hours a day). I’ve owned 3 pairs of Beats, and they all broke one me, but I’ve never had an issue with soundcore.I owned two pairs of Q35’s in the past and loved them, so I upgraded to the Q45’s which are more over the ear headphones, compared to on the ear. At first I really did miss my Q35’s, and if I were to pick between the two now, they were certainly my favourite out of the two, but that’s not to say that these aren’t still a cracking pair of headphones. It’s all down to preference I think, the Q45’s have a tighter feel and have more weight to them. If you get either pair - always remember to change the audio settings via the app, there are pre-sets available for you to chose from, and it makes the Bluetooth listening worth it.The battery life is incredible - these can easily last for days at a time before charging again. I consistently sleep while using them, and they’re yet to be damaged by me crushing them in unfavourable angles.To summarise, I’ll always recommend soundcore headphones to anyone who’s thinking about getting some. They are extremely durable, brilliant at noise cancelling features, and great value for money!

I did purchase these on a sale with an additional promotional discount, but I'm not sure how much more I would have paid for these. That said, they are pretty great. The bluetooth connection is great, and the included functions of passthrough audio as well as noice cancelling is really nice to have for different scenarios. They're incredibly easy to set up, and the differing buttons are all nice to have. They charge quick enough, though I mostly use them wired so I don't have the most experience with the time to recharge.The build quality is very good, and they're very comfortable! They fit great, though if you are concerned about the fitting, both sides expand somewhat so you can get it to a point you are comfortable with!But none of that matters until we get to the sound quality. To be honest, by default, I was pretty disappointed with how they sounded. It's hard for me to describe why the sound was so off. I guess it felt sort of muffled? This applied to not just music, but audio in games such as voiced dialogue. I took advantage of the Realtek Audio Console in order to get a sound I was happy with. It took me a few attempts, but now I'm satisfied with things! So, for anyone with a similar experience, here are my Equalizer numbers! 2.0, 4.0, 2.0, 0.5, 2.5, 1.5, 2.0, 7.5, 6.0, 6.0. Maybe these numbers seem strange, but they are what work for me, and that's enough.Maybe I was a little harsh on these things, there definitely is value here in the build quality and overall functionality. I just wonder if anyone else felt the same when it came to the sound, or if my ears are just REALLY weird.
