Best budget earbuds IMHO.
These are probably the best deal going for a set of quality yet affordable earbuds. I've purchased a couple sets of these for personal use, the first set in 2023 and another set (because I lost one earbud) and in 2024. I use these daily. I normally only use one earbud at a time because I wear them while working, cleaning, outdoor activities, etc. The sound quality of these is pretty great. Good bass and clear highs that aren't harsh. I have earbuds that sound better but the cost 10x as much. I listen throughout the day and these will last all day for my needs. Battery life seems to be around 8-9 hours for moderate use. I know some say that these aren't that durable, but these earbuds literally live inside my pocket with no case, the same pocket that carries my knife , change, and other small items. I've dropped them, had them fall out of my ear, slept with them, sweated with them in, lost them in the couch, kicked them across the floor, and used them in the pool (not under water). I've never had one fail on me. The only reason I bought a second pair, is that I lost one of the first pair I bought. They are also super comfortable in the ear. No hot spots and I almost forget they are in there. he only complaint that I have is that I wish the recharging case had a little bit larger battery capacity. You can recharge the ears buds 2-3 time before the battery in the case needs to be recharged. It would be nice to get at least 5 recharges from the case.

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

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?

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!!

Excellent Value
I’ve been using the Soundcore A20i True Wireless Earbuds for a few weeks now, and I’m seriously impressed. The sound quality is clear and well-balanced, with surprisingly good bass for earbuds in this price range. Whether I’m listening to music, podcasts, or taking calls, everything comes through crisp and clean. They’re also super comfortable—I can wear them for hours without any discomfort. The fit is secure, which is great for walking or light workouts. I also love the compact charging case, which is sleek and easy to carry around. The battery life is another big plus. I easily get several hours of use on a single charge, and the case provides multiple recharges, so I’m rarely worrying about running out of juice. Bluetooth pairing is quick and reliable, and the customizable controls via the Soundcore app are a nice bonus. For the price, these are an unbeatable choice. Highly recommend if you want quality wireless earbuds without breaking the bank!

Use the Treble Boost EQ even if you love Bass like I do, it is perfect!
These headphones will likely sound boomy/overly bassy and a bit muddled if you don't take advantage of the easy-to-use Soundcore app to adjust the EQ. Personally I do like the extra bass, and to my surprise I found using the "Treble Boost" EQ actually brings some much needed clarity and gives a very fun "V-shaped" sound signature to these headphones. The highest-praise I can offer: if I could only keep one pair of headphones out of the 8-10 most recent pairs I've used (of varying styles/prices/wired/wireless), these A20i are my favorite and most versatile. For the price I am absolutely pleased! Quality note: I consider myself an amateur audiophile, so a decently accurate sound as well as adequate bass/treble/detail is a requirement for my enjoyment. Thankfully with using the "Treble Boost" EQ setting the boomy bass is suddenly gone and vocals are present and clear, the bass still kicks very well for a variety of genres (electronic, metalcore, pop, dubstep, rock). The soundstage and separation might be a bit lacking for the most technically demanding musical tracks, but I listen to a lot of fast and heavy rock and always love the sound I get from these headphones. Its overall sound has a warm-softness that never fatigues my ears either, I only stop listening because I need to do something else, not because of discomfort, battery life, or tiresome overly-bright top-end treble (these are completely free of that issue!). The comfort is top-tier, never felt uncomfortable wearing these for long listening sessions. The battery life is very good as well, as those long sessions never had me worried about battery. The touch controls are customizable in the app and work pretty well After struggling with another pair of wireless buds some months ago, I was very pleased at how easily these connect and disconnect from my phone. These are so much easier to use and to say they "just work" is simple and accurate. Pair them and you're golden, never had a connection issue or other complaint! The mic quality is apparently a bit weird according to the couple phone calls I've taken with these, but for music/video/games these are quite a treat! Just experiment with those EQ options and enjoy! Last note, I'm glad these had some waterproof capabilities, as I was able to enjoy hours of music while caught out in some light rain to whole time. There is so much value to be found here in these headphones and any minor gripes (mic quality?) are easy for me to overlook personally, as everything else about them brings me lively, musical joy!

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.

Long battery life and awesome sound
I bought these for my husband who uses them all day long everyday at work. He doesn't take the time to recharge his ear buds so needed some he doesn't have to charge often and could use all day long. These work and were affordable as well. He loves his earbuds. He rarely has to charge them even with hours of use. The sound quality is awesome too, love the noise cancelation. I will tell you though if you have trouble fitting earbuds these might not work great for you. I cannot get them to stay in my ears, but he has no issues, so it just depends on the person.

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.

Très contentr, bon achat
Ils fonctionnent très bien autant pour écouter de la musique que pour des rencontre Teams. Ceci dit, tu entends un peu avec les oreilles bouchées quand tu parles. Ça coupe bien les sons ambiants. Ça ne sonne pas la canne. Ils sont confortable aussi. L'autonomie est bien. Rien à dire je suis contente de mon achat, surtout pour le prix.
