Anker Soundcore Life Q20 Review - Noise Canceling Headphone Should You Buy? 

mine just arrived. Definitely recommended. when you pair with your phone: dont forget to set it to AAC which is superior audio quality :)

The reason I'm doing headphones is because I can't do earbuds anymore. They fall off easily and it feels like I need to jam them in to get the full effect.

I clicked on this video because it was a review for a product I’m considering buying and now I’m watching this guy jump rope over and over again my dude your workout routine is so cool

They really ARE that good at $60.. I was amazed at first when I got mine. Sound quality is very good for 95% of people.. even audiophiles give them high marks for anything under $150 😮 They are worth every penny.. where they are kinda cheap is build quality. So if you break stuff easily.. get the Q45 which are built like tanks (but cost $150).

Thanks for the review. Due to medical reasons I can't use ear buds anymore and I really appreciate your insights on how they work during exercise.

your voice audio ducking is too aggressive, and it chops off sentences rly rapidly. Thanks for the review tho

Get this headphone!! Ive had this for about a year now and it is just amazing! I come home after listening to airpods and the amazing bass combined with the active noice cancelling is so comforting.

I like how you do this exercise 2:17 😮👍

I just received these (August 2022) and thought they wouldn't be good enough so also ordered some Sennheisers which haven't arrived yet. These Anker Q20s are so good that I'll probably sell the Sennheisers when they arrive. Incredible sound, 60 hour battery, very effective noise cancelling, Bluetooth 5, and comfortable. What more do you need? They won't win a beauty contest but I couldn't care less about that

Loving my Q20 for the price. Now I am getting tempted to upgrade to the Q35 which supports LDAC (I have a Sony Walkman). The Soundcore headphones are worth every dollar.

I am considering these headphones to use a productivity device while studying around the house. Given my current needs, I don’t anticipate traveling with these or being in ultra noisy environments, but I want to be able to block out household distracting noises with the aid of a little ambient sound in the headphones and the ANC feature. Do you think these headphones provide enough ANC to accomplish that?

The only problem I had with this headset was in wireless mode. For some reason whenever I was close to a tp link powerline (and I have a few of those in my house) the WiFi speed would drop to 6 Mbps from 60 Mbps. I guess its because they probably both operate at the 2,4 Ghz band and there is interference from the Bluetooth. Unfortunately the TP link kit that I have does not jump to the 5 Ghz band so it is what it is I guess. However, the problem does not appear close to my router which also works at the 2,4 Ghz. I just use the cable around home. Apart from that this headset is the most value for money thing I've ever seen hands down. The base is strong , the battery is great, and they are super comfortable.

Thx for the great video! I'm a technophobe but taking a long distance plane flight to Tunisia from the West Coast of America in February, '25. Want to learn and enjoy the features of this on my long distance flight, layovers and stay.

Are you sure the audio you recorded was actually coming from the microphone in the headphones? I feel like it came from the phone microphone

Thanks for the review, brilliant video however I have a couple of questions, what is the sound leakage like on these headphones, would others be able to hear them? & What is the material of the headphones like?

Lovely video! Really want to get these, but one of my biggest worries is the echo you mentioned might come through phone calls. How often have you actually heard other users say the echo has been a problem when using these phones for calls? Just curious, not trying to say you haven't done your research haha! Thanks so much!!

The Bluetooth range of mine is approximately 130 paces in the open which is amazing

nice review, to the point and you described everything i wanted to know, thank you! subbed

Will this cancel the noise from my parents shouting when I'm trying to study?

Thanks for the video. I just got some and I’m very happy with them I used to get the Bose comfort headphones for over 300 dollars and these were just as good.

I love slow paced music plus i am planning to couple them as my gaming companion but like you said there is a significant drop in the audio quality after plugging it through the aux cabe. What do you suggest?

Thanks for the review!!! How does it compare against Edifier W830BT and TaoTronics BH-0046 and BH0090.

Thanks! I think I'm just gonna go ahead and buy these as I've been researching for about four days. Some questions on amazon weren't answered. ;) But on buses what would you say about these headphones? They won't be any worse than previous earpods I've owned sounds like. I haven't ever owned a headset like this. My previous earpods, wireless, would always play really loud as a default. I always had to turn them down every single time. You think that's a problem with the earpods or my device? As I say I don't know about these things. I never got in touch with the manufacturers as I only made the decision six months in or so. I don't think they'd be willing to exchange or whatever at that stage would they? What I'm tryna get at is do you think it's my old ipod device, I've had it for almost ten years, that was messing up the volume or the earpods themselves. There were one or two other issues so probably the pods but seems they've packed up altogether now. Another red flag it would seem! I think spending a bit more money on headphones like these - I got a recommendation from someone certainly more in the know than me also! will be worth it!!

How they compare to boltune headphone you also reviewed in your channel. Thank you

Good review I will picking these up

Can you pair 2 devices at the same time? Great review

Did you make phone call with someone ? If yes how was your voice while talking on phone? Is it clear or not ?

you are an absolute pro on that jump rope

Is it comfortable with your glasses as well? After a day of use for example?

Best headphones, it takes two days to die when charge I sleep overnight with it on my head and it didn’t die

I need headphones for work but I’m considering buying either soundcore q20+ or the ranker barracuda x 2021. Any thoughts?

Do you think this are the best headphones under $60 or you would recommend me any other ?

What do you think about noise cancellation? Is it good?

Yay! Thank you for this ♡ thinking of buying one! ◡̈ Helpful review! ◡̈ Just subscribed.

Just ordered a pair of the Q20 i model as newer i think. On offer for £37.99. Hope they sound as good as I've read about...👍

I'm getting those headphones for Christmas this year :)

Why did the sound change when moving the phone? as if the sound was being recorded with the phone mic? probably not as the sound was quite bad..

l mismo precio este Q20 y Q20i, cual recomiendas?? Es para el Gym... espero su consejo gracias....o recomiendas mejor otro en este mismo rango de precio??

Thanks for the vid! Made my purchase today

My main concern is about the Noise Canceling aspect, is it better than the taotrobics B065

did you know that if you press the play button 2 times they will give extra bass (i think)

Great video, thanks! I just bought simultaneously these headphones and BOSE 700, planning to return the one that doesn't mute the music from the bar downstairs. I'm most concerned with ANC ability and comfort. How do you compare these Anker and BOSE 700s?

Excellent review, well thought out.

idk whether someone has pointed this out yet, but i dont think your headphone microphone was the one recording, because when u lifted your phone up the audio changed because it wasnt on the table anymore. i think your lhone was recording, although i could be wrong.

can you provide headphone dimensions, do they fit comfortably? I've heard they don't fit smaller heads. I don't have a small head, perhaps a medium sized.

Great review 👌🏾

which is better anker soundcore life q20 or taotronics soundserge 90 and why

Features and value for money 10. Longevity 2. I have had 4 pairs. I will keep returning for replacements them until I can afford the sony wh1000xm4.

The Carger dose not work for me please help me with this it dose not Carge

Honest review buddy, thanx 💜

i just discovered these in walmart today, but only had the Soundcore Vortex which has no noise cancelling, but I really liked the fit which is rare for me to find. Idk if the q20 is the same size or not. Would these stay comfortably on small heads or slip off?

Do you have a review on the Life Q10 by anker?

It is unclear to me if these have a microphone? Would these be appropriate for work conference calls connected via Bluetooth to a laptop?

Your sounds recording was actually recording on your phone, not the headset i believe. When you moved the phone you can clearly hear the phone hit/scratch against the table just fyi

Would the noise canceling alone with No music, significantly reduce the sound of a vacuum cleaner ? I vacuum a lot and don’t like sticking things in my ears also don’t care much for music.

Hello. What about the noise leakout? Can someone sitting next to me hear what I'm listening to? Does they have aptx? What about noise cancellation?

I have read that you can boost the noise cancellation? by turning on the noise cancellation. But this uses up battery right?

I was gonna buy some headphones which seem to only sell because of, firstly, the brand and secondly because the higher price makes them seem higher quality than they really are, Apple logic. Thanks for saving me money.

Hi, I bought these based on the good reviews on Amazon. However when I tried them in a cab or in an airplane, with the NC activated they make an awfull sound. This makes impossible to use them. I then look for comments in Amazon and Many people has the same issue. They claim they got even.new ones but they had the same issue, so apparently that's the way the headphones are.

Nice video bro..... But please how loud is the volume?

The only reason one would buy it is for noise cancelation, if it's not good in that regard that's no reason to buy such a cheapo.

I have a beat solo3 wire aux do you think this will work on these Also is it iPhone compatible thanks

Do these headphones sit on the ears or around the ears?.. I wear glasses and wear headphones for prolonged periods and my current headphones sit on the ears and press the glass arms into my skull..

did you feel downgrade in sound when playing with aux cable plugged in ?

Listening on Sony wh ch 710N 😅 checking day 1 but thinking about what to do with this now return or continue using

hi, thank you, how does this compare with Marshall Major III Headphones Bluetooth. :)

Are you sure that they lost quality when connected by the audio jack? That’s like against the concept of data transfer. I thought the quality would be the same or better with the audio jack. I ordered this yesterday to use for my garageband projects and you killed my buzz by saying this, because I gotta use it wired to avoid delays and what’s the point if they lower the quality? Can you please clear this up for me? :(

Are there any other headphones you'd recommend around this price range that you think are much better?

I just got the headphone today. I haven't tested Bluetooth connectivity yet but I noticed that I cannot turn it on when the aux cord is inserted and it turns off when I plug the cord back in - is this normal?

I have a question about using a pair of "over the ear, noise cancelling wireless headphones. I want to use a USB Flash drive in stead of my phone as the music source. I will be using them for yard work and I'm sure #1. It would kill my phone and #2. it would be out of reach if I kept it stationary "out of pocket". It's a very big property. I don't want to have to keep moving my phone every time it goes out of range. Are there any head phones that do this out of the box? or is it something I would have to take to an electronics shop? Thank you for any help you could send my way. Have a great day everyone.

Immaculate posture

Sounds like I’m gonna get some of these

Thinking of buying this- from India 🇮🇳

What about the sweat, will it be a problem or is it sweat proof?

These headsets are AWESOME

What is alternative? Is Skullcandy better?

Are you certain the mic test was using the Headphone's in-built mic and not the phones? Had my doubts when the direction of the sound changed after you picked up your phone and swerved it around.

Does anyone know if these have better sound quality than the 2019 soundcore liberty neo buds?

They made this HiRes certified and has 16hz-40khz frequency but didn't bother to put LDAC support. So it only works wired. Making them pretty pointless headphones unless you just listen to spotify and nothing else.

Do they fit around ear or on top of ear?

I have a question: my headphones arrived, and yes they are pretty good quality. But, it is only playing in 1 ear, not the other. So, I am wondering what’s going on, or what could be done if anyone can help.

i dont think you were able to record audio with the headphone bc the phone clearly picked up the slide off the table at 5:06

I think the mic test was actually using the phone's mic. When he picks up the phone off the table the sound changes dramatically.

what should I choose between this and jbl 510?

Is it safe to use a charger having 5V & 1A output to charge this device?????

nice Review Thx :)

Does mic works in wired mode ? And dual paring ?

Q20 and Q20i at the same price?? Are just the same???

Can you try again on the mic sound quality? I think the one that was recorded was through your phone's mic. As you can hear when you picked up your phone, you can hear that you picked it up and when you are closer to it, it sounded nearer to you as well.

I am selling my beats solo Pro because although they sound great, it’s just crazy uncomfortable. Would these be a good replacement option?

Do you need to buy a charger box for these?

Write! Fantastic skipping! Keep it up! Good video. Thank you.. I'm glad I subscribed..

im using these headphones to watch this vid lol

I will probably buy one

I disagree about the noise canceling, minor excellent at noise canceling. So good that I can barely hear anything outside of what I'm listening to.

If it runs out of battery can i plug in the jack and use it?

I got these cans at xmas. Great value.

ATTENTION I just bough these headphones, they are HEAVY !! Not comfortable for long hours, Other than this, Battery time, connection, sound quality, ANC, are all OK.

How does this stands with Skullcandy evo hush

battery life on average?
