Are you in need of a UC device to use with your PC for MS Teams? Zoom? WebEx? Google Meet? And many others?I was, and thought that only devices specifically labeled as UC (unified communications) would be guaranteed to work. Sure, you can make any Bluetooth device work on those applications, but your PC has to have the right BT adapter and even after that you have to load more drivers – not the case here. Windows automatically installed the headset drivers when I connected these. Connection is simple, pairing is simple (make sure you peel all all of the plastic off everywhere first), and using is just as easy. Pair to a phone and use the app to set up the tap/hold buttons, and then use with your computer.Also, one thing I ran into with all of the other BT earbuds was that only one side connected to the PC while the other bud connected to the primary bud. Thus, in my home office/server closet with all of the electronics, the bud to bud connection would get fuzzy. But that’s not the case with these! Both buds connect to the pc with Bluetooth and none of those interference issues exist!

I bought these after my previous MPows finally quit. They are far and above better! I mainly listen to podcasts, so I couldn’t tell you about the music side of things but I really like how the app had a podcast setting. I didn’t know how badly I needed it til I had it.The ANC is great! We have a lot of construction in our area and I tested them out beside one of the work sites. I tried full transparency (excellent and great for safety reasons) and then ANC to see the difference. And let me tell you, it was wild how well it worked. I feeluch safer going on walks with these knowing I won’t get run over by a cyclist or jogger.The phone call audio is great too. I hear everything clearly and my friend said she could hear me a lot clearer than my previous ones. Def worth the little stick out, even if my hair gets stuck in them sometimes

I LOVE these headphones. The sound quality is top notch, with different levels noise cancellation setting for any occasion and my must have – reducing background noise on calls! I have no problem using $5 wired headphones for working out or general listening, but I NEEDED headphones that I could use to talk in the car. I have an older, very road noisy SUV, and everyone I talked to complained about the road noise. Finally I bit the bullet and ordered 3 different wireless headphones at 3 different price points to find something that would solve my problem.A) $32.13 – ENACFIRE E60 Wireless Earbuds – sound quality was great on my end, but zero background noise reduction. One caller stated my $5 pair were better. Kept & gave to my boyfriend who only uses headphones to listen to music/podcasts.B) $86.87 – these bad boys!C) $127.50 (on sale, normally $150+tax) – Raycon The Work earbuds – HATED everything about them. No matter what I tried they literally fell out of my ears. For the short time I did wear them on a call, the caller said the quality was fantastic – until the bud popped out of my ear. I quickly ended the call, not wanting to try to find the thing while I was on the freeway. Some items just aren’t made for everyone, and that’s ok. No questions asked free returns & I’m satisfied.Hands down would recommend these to anyone! They fit perfectly snug in your ear, and have different sizing options of both the buds & the loop that goes in your outer ear to keep it out. Can not praise enough!

I wanted to write a short review of my experience so far with these in-ear headphones. The sound quality is worlds better than anything in this price range. Bass has a nice thump that you feel and sound quality is on par with wireless earbuds twice the price. It’s a very crisp and clear sound that can be modified easily with with the Soundcore app to your liking. I’m personally more of a basshead so I choose the mode that emphasizes bass. Battery life so far has been good.I do anticipate that these will last over 30 hours of play time as they claim. So far, they’ve lasted several days of usage with no issues. I have not charged them once yet.Noise cancelling is solid and does drown out loud environments significantly. It also helps that they include different earpiece sizes for a snug fit to isolate sound. Some NC modes have an audible hiss, especially the outdoor mode, but it doesn’t bother me and you don’t hear it when playing music.I had the original Liberty Pros from Soundcore and I didn’t like them. They did not have the attachments to keep the earbud in place and felt very loose and uncomfortable. This is a much better design and with the included attachments, the Life A2s stay in place very well even with a lot of movement, such as running or walking.Call quality is very good. The microphones do isolate a loud of sound and other callers have mentioned that I sound very clear with these on. These also work perfect for Zoom calls.I have not been able to connect them to multiple devices at the same time. I assume the case is that you can only connect to one device at a time.Construction and build quality is surprisingly sturdy. The case itself is solid and the earpieces do not have any creaking.The touch controls work most of the time, but I find myself tapping more often to get them to work. I don’t use them often so it’s not a problem for me.I really do think these are the best bang for your buck earbuds and for what they offer at this price point, you can’t beat them.One thing I do miss is the unique HearID feature that some earbuds from Soundcore have, which tailors the sound the headphones produce to your own hearing. These do not have them and I miss that feature because it does work.Overall, I bought these on a whim and I’m very satisfied from this purchase.

Jusy buy these! I’m an industrial painter, and a bull in a China shop, and I can’t kill or degrade the quality of these. These earbuds have survived everything my clumsy self can throw at them. 5 days a week these operate in a high volume metal fabrication shop, specifically surrounded by steel shot from 2.5 story industrial steelshot media blasters and powder coating booths where they spend most of their lives in personal electronic device hell. I’ve dropped the into tanks of 6′ slag water for minutes and they still function like day one. Open air spraying in powder booths for hours on end. Survived a trip through a auger screw path being nailed by falling media shot for 2 days. We blast with drums and drums of steel birdshot.Only gripe was the case, added some velcro grip tape and now the case stays put in any pocket. I added comply foam tips as I have with all earphones.Highly recommend for anyone working in intense industrial environments, I’ve killed countless others, but these earbuds just willbirds hot.This is after 5 months!The transport mode for ANC works fantastic out drowing out all of the heavy machinery in my shop, and haven’t worn plugs since I got these several months ago.Sound is absolutely top notch.Only grip (easily resolved) is the surface of the case is too slick to stay in my pockets with all the movement I do, climbing ladders, suspending in safety harnesses, etc.

These Soundcore by Anker Life A2 earbuds sound really really good. The bass is full and punchy, the mids clear, and the highs sparkly without being at all harsh.As for the active noise canceling, the Soundcore app (free download) provides three levels of ANC – Transport, Indoor, and Outdoor. Transport mode is for when you are in a car or airplane; Indoor mode reduces mid-frequency noise in public indoor spaces such as coffee shops; Outdoor mode reduces ambient noise when walking around city streets, etc. All three modes work very well. Not quite as well as earbuds or headphones costing hundreds of dollars, but remarkably well for this price point.The Soundcore app also includes 22 preset EQ settings to tailor the sound to your liking. If none of the presets work for you, you can create custom equalization with the 8-band EQ feature included in the app. This is very slick, and works beautifully.These earbuds fit securely in the ears, but are comfortable. Included are different size tips so that you can get a good fit for your ears.Finger tap control of these earbuds is somewhat limited as compared to other wireless earbuds, but the controls can be customized. They will respond only to a double tap left and right and hold for 2 seconds left and right. I configured the controls as follows: double tap L moves to next song; double tap R pauses or plays; 2 second hold L decreases volume; 2 second hold R increases volume. The finger tap and finger hold functions work well.Battery life seems quite good. Soundcore claims 6 hours of battery life with ANC on, but I haven’t had a chance to test that claim. I have worn them for several hours with no problem though. They also claim that by putting the earbuds back in the case (which has a built-in rechargeable battery) you can get up to 36 hours of battery life. I have observed that the case seems to hold a charge very well. I have used the earbuds numerous times, listening for at least an hour or two each time and then returning them to the case. The case still shows three LEDs of charge, the highest level of charge, and I’ve not had it plugged in. So the 35 hour claim may very well be accurate.I also own a pair of Tozo NC9 ANC earbuds, which are also very good. The Tozo NC9s are about $20 cheaper than these Soundcore earbuds, and sound almost as good. I would give the edge in sound quality to the Soundcores. Also, being able to adjust the EQ of the Soundcores is a big plus. The ANC of the Soundcores is a little better too. Not dramatically better, but noticeably better. The battery life of the Tozo NC9s has been disappointing. The Soundcores offer much better battery life.For the money I think the Soundcore Life A2s would be hard to beat. Highly recommended!

These buds are great, let me tell you, I’ve used them every day since I got them which has been close to a month and they haven’t disappointed. The fact that the moment I lift one of them out of the case and it pairs to my phone is 5 Stars on its own. I hate messing around with turning Bluetooth off and on, with previous wireless earbuds. I’ve taken countless calls, while out walking. No complaints from the other end. When not on the phone, the 3 modes they have, transparency mode / normal mode and noise cancelation, they work great. The noise cancelation really is what it says, noise canceling. The normal mode is very close to that. The transparency mode I don’t use very often as when I’m walking and jogging I can hear the breeze, since the microphones allow sound in, thus, transparency mode.Make sure you fit them for your ears, I think that’s very important, for extended wear time. I have zero fatigue from them after wearing them for 2+ hours while working out. I’ve used them in a light drizzle/scattered little rain cloud, sweat in them, holding up great.The case charging them up, and being able to charge wirelessly? What more do you need. Give them a try if you’re on the fence. The size/shape on the outside, their appearance might not be for everyone, but I have grown to like them a lot.I was so impressed, I picked up some of the same brand for my son, who is also rough and tough with them. He has the Life P2’s.All in all, I would definitely buy these again.Thanks Anker for a great pair of buds.

These are awesome for the price. I got them mainly to use while doing yardwork and exercising. They did not disappoint. I needed something that was loud enough or blocked out enough sound to hear music while on a riding mower. These had the perfect blend and I was able to hear music clearly while on the riding mower, using gas string trimmer, and handheld gas blower. I did notice that I had to choose either acoustic or piano from the equalizer so that they would be loud enough. Either choice sounded good but I preferred acoustic. It seemed to have a little more bass. I liked the fact that you can choose what you want to control on the buds themselves using the soundcore app to set them up. I did find that double tapping was a little hit and miss. So I just chose long press to skip tracks either for forward or to the previous song. Other than that everything seems to work great. Highly recommend.

I owned a cheap set of wireless earbuds and although they sounded good, they cut out from time to time. And it WAS the earbuds, not the phone. Then again, what do you want for a cheap set of wireless earbuds, eh? That’s when I decided to do some more research on a new set of earbuds.I saw a review on YouTube about the Soundcore Life A2 NC earbuds. I passed up Skull Candy, Samsung, Jabra and even Bose. AND I COULDN’T BE HAPPIER! Read on as to why.Pro’s:- App-supported!!!! When I found out these had a supporting app, I was like, “why would I want an app for my buds?” Then I saw the features…- Firmware upgradeable. As soon as I connected them to my phone and launched the app, the firmware upgrade process started and it was easy-peasy! I have yet to research what the upgrade was, but I didn’t care. The fact that it went through the process with only a couple of taps made me smile a bit.- App-controlled EQ. The multitude of different multi-band EQ settings is DOPE! Not to mention that the EQ settings are 8 bands. EIGHT FREAKIN’ BANDS!!!!! WHO DOES THIS?!?!?!- Customizable EQ!!! You can even set up your OWN customized EQ settings instead of selecting from the pre-made EQ’s. I have NO idea how many you can do, but it looks like enough to satisfy your sound tastes.- App-controlled NC. VERY impressed with the NC on these buds. They have it so that you can shut off the feature, thereby saving battery life, but the NC levels are nice to have. I sometimes sit in bed with my wife while she watches her shows and I listen to music. Can’t hear any ambient noises when I turn on the NC. And this is NICE.- The NC is helped along by six – 6 – SIX – microphones!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME????- Comfortable fit!!! My ears are probably average size, but my ear canals are small. I just switched out the pads for the smallest ones and they fit nice! I can shake my head a bit and they won’t come loose! No ear fatigue and I can sometimes barely feel them!- Instant-connect! As soon as you open the clam shell charging base, the buds connect, and THAT is a nice feature! My previous buds had to be taken out of their base to connect. Not these! You can start adjusting the app as soon as you open the case!- Battery level indicators are in the app, so you can see just how much of a charge your buds have.- Moderately priced. In comparison to other earbuds by different makers, these earbuds are worth every penny you spend on them.Con’s:N/A———————–Final thoughts:Regarding battery life: if you’re listening to music for over 7 hours a day, you have too much time on your hands. Get a job! But don’t use these while doing your job, otherwise you won’t hear anything outside of your head.I let my wife test them and she was blown away by the sound quality and comfort – and she’s particularly picky about the comfort. So I ended up buying her a pair that will be here today. ;)I saw some issues regarding the sound cutting out. I can’t chalk these up to the buds. Sometimes, YouTube Music, iHeart and SiriusXM cut out regardless of how I’m listening (internal phone speaker, Bluetooth speaker, corded buds, Soundcore), so I can’t attribute this particular issue to the earbuds.Overall, I’m thoroughly impressed and plan to buy some more of these as gifts for some special people in my life.

These headphones sound amazing for the price of $80. They claim 90% noise reduction with their noise canceling and I can say it is amazing for such a small package!!! Even at 90% it canceled out people around me having conversations and the sounds of cars running. 90% is quite accurate. You may still hear some sounds but they so a great job. Especially once you get a good fit. They only thing I’m not a huge fan off is thr touch controls to pause and play these headphones. I think a simple button like the liberty 2 pros I have is much better option. And they really do come close to the liberty 2 pros in sound. After comparing them back and forth I did notice the liberty 2 pros to have a more clear and deeper tone. HOWEVER I can say I wouldn’t miss it with how great these Life A2 headphones sound for the money!!!! They are great. If you get a dud Ankor will stand behind there product. I hope this helps someone.

HOWEVER I can say I wouldn’t miss it with how great these Life A2 headphones sound for the money!!!! They are great. If you get a dud Ankor will stand behind there product. I hope this helps someone.
