Space A40

Final update - the right earbud issue has yet to repeat, so that's not an issue. As I've said, I have four other top end earbuds, and the only pair I use is the Soundcore A40. We have a little land and a John Deere Z920M zero turn, and its loud. My neighbors all have the same mower, and all wear headsets. I now won't mow without my A40's, as the noise cancelling is even better than my 1 month old top end hearing aids (thanks VA). The sound is not like you're sitting in a studio listening to an album on a top end everything audio, but nothing is, so when people try comparing buds to studio headsets, I just smile. The sound is crazy good for a couple of marble sized devices that connect via a rf signal. Darn amazing. Update - I submitted a warranty claim, due to the right earbud not being active when I started this morning, but I decided to put them back into the charge case for a few minutes and it came to life. Here's to hoping this is not a new trend? Still love their sound quality, and general fitment. I have noticed that they have started to come loose when I'm bent over working in the heat. I've been tempted a couple times to buy new buds, but these are still very hard to beat. Over the last two months I've tried several earbud, all were horrible failures. These are different. Shortly after I got them I headed from N. FL to Delta Junction AK. So 9 total hours in the air both directions. While there I spent 5+ hours a day running a chainsaw, a stump grinder, and a commercial wood chipper, all while using the noise cancellation (N/C). I never ran out of battery life while running N/C, although once I left the first leg of my flights, I did put them back in the case, so each leg they were returned to full charge. Only once did I have one come lose from my right ear, and it did not fall out. Before I left I'd use them to run my John Deere commercial mower for the two hours it takes to mow the yard, and they were awesome at cutting out motor noise. Wear - With the correct tips they work flawlessly. They have a fit process called Real Ear ID (or something like that). The testing will determine the best fit and seal by running those tonal sounds you're used to in hearing test booths. I was never able to get a passed or perfect fit according to the test, and I did try three sets of the foam tips (these did not work in my ears, and they did not allow the buds to charge in the case). As I said they stay in your ears. Charging - The case is small and give you a full charge in well under an hour. There are only 3 led charge indicator lights, and I've never had less than 3 lights. The case also has the USB-C type charging port, unlike half of the other buds I tried, which still had micro USB. There are no good case covers that I found on Amazon, but I bought a soft case cover and it works ok, where I'd rather have a hard cover. Touch control - the app allows you to change the function of single, double, triple touch, and long hold. The touch is responsive, and accurate. Wear - Possibly a kind of repeat, as I've discussed fit, but I wanted to cover comfort. I do not get wear fatigue. Sound and volume - The sound is easily as good as my Samsung Ear Buds Pro with much better battery life. Volume seems to be a problem with most earbuds, but not these. I'm older with hearing loss, and like to listen to my music louder than is comfortable for most. I end up around 45% of volume for regular listening, and around 70% they become too loud, but the sound is still clear and crisp. The App - It is simple, but complete, with EQ function. I've finally found a set that I'll keep.

I finally ended up with these earbuds after a nightmare journey having traded in my perfectly great Samsung (first series) earbuds for the new Samsung buds pro 2, which it turned out I am totally allergic to and couldn't even wear for 10 minutes without getting a severe reaction, shame on you Samsung, they know they have a big problem and refused to return and refund me the buds. So here the journey starts, and shout out to Best Buy who took back and refunded every pair I bought! As I mostly listen to audio books in the night, and I'm a side/front sleeper, I needed them to be small and comfortable to lie on, as I'd just wasted over $200 on the Samsung buds, I thought I'd try cheaper ones so bought JBL 235NC earbuds, it was my first time wearing an earbud similar to Apple and for me I didn't like it, I also found the buds sound to be a bit tinny. So they went back and Idid some research and upped my spend and bought the Sony WF1000XM5, these had excellent reviews but the $300 purchase price hurt and they were big in my ears, definitely not comfortable to lay on and for me not worth the price, they went back, next I tried the beats studio buds +, these were ok, they are pretty small but have a raised piece that you hold to fit in your ear and I really struggled every time to put them in my ear, it was also tricky to get them in and out of the case, the sound was good and as much as I didn't really like them, I decided to keep them, until one fell out on the airplane and I couldn't find it, so I was back in the earbud market again and this whole time kicking myself for trading in my old Samsung earbuds, which were perfectly good. I will say that I didn't get a reaction to any of the new earbuds I tried - except the new samsung pro 2 - and now I'm running out of options, my husband said to try the Anker Soundcore A40s as he heard they were good and similar to the Samsung ones so for $50, I decided to give them a try, I read the reviews and supposedly they can be hit and miss, but if you get a bad one send it back and they will send a new pair. I bought a white pair and my first impression was they are good quality, the case seems sturdy and the buds look expensive. They look very similar to the Samsung earbuds in size, shape and appearance. I downloaded the app, and they paired straight away, they supplied a wide range of sizes of ear tips for fit and a huge choice of sound options, I did the ear test and went with their HearID sound option but there are lots of default choices as well as custom so you can adjust the sound to suit you. There is noise cancellation/Normal/Transparency mode options and I have to say it could be me but I didn't really notice a difference, the Samsung and Sony both have excellent noise cancelling if that is important, it's not really a problem for me. So far I'm pretty pleased, for the price point and quality I would highly recommend them, also for those of you who are struggling with reactions to their earbuds, so far these have been great

These things are AMAZING for the price. GREAT sound, LOUD if need be, super decent noise canceling, batteries last for freaking ever on ANC (~4 hours or so on the LDAC high quality setting) The only downside is I work construction and if you have the noise canceling enabled and put on ear muffs they'll SCREAM high pitched noises in your ears incessantly.. I've owned dozens of other headphones and none of them have done as these do.

I lost my AirPods and wanted to buy a replacement without spending too much. Read glowing reviews online and went ahead and bought on Amazon.SG. Delivery was very quick, setting up was easy and works as promised. Noise cancellation is reasonably good too.

Excellent battery Excellent sound and sound cancellation I recommend

Suite à la perte d'un des écouteurs de mon Jabra Elite 75T, je n'avais pas le budget pour en racheter un autre et je me suis donc tourné vers celui-ci (Space A40) , bien moins onéreux (promo à 72€). Honnêtement, c'est un excellent produit pour son prix : + Son riche et puissant (avec égaliseur dans l'appli et détection de votre plage de fréquences audibles) + Bonne isolation, aussi bien passive qu'active (modes transparent, naturel et isolation) + On peut n'utiliser qu'un seul écouteur à la fois (bien en voiture ou pour le sport) + Permet d'être associé à 2 émetteurs bluetooth différents (ex: PC + smartphone). Celui actif est le premier en date à emettre du son et il commutte automatiquement sur l'autre si 1 des 2 n'envoie plus de signal. + Lattence acceptable (jeux comme Forza Horizon 5) + Aucune deconnexion bluetooth "sauvage" subie après 2 semaines d'utilisations quotidiennes (3h++ mini/jour) + Tient bien dans les oreilles et reste supportable dans le temps (5 tailles d'embouts) + Relativement discret + Le boitier peut se recharger en le posant sur un socle de "charge sans fil" (celui de ma montre Xiaomi Watch S2) +- Qualité de l'appel tel. acceptable de mon côté comme depuis celui de mon interlocuteur +- Charge des écouteurs rapide et autonomie donnée pour 10h... suivant le mode d'isolation sélectionné (dans la réalité, de 5 à 9h validées). Cependant, c'est pareil chez les concurrents et bien pire avant sur mon Jabra). Dans ma pratique, il tient vraiment bien la charge et le 2ème ecouteur peut arriver à la rescousse... - Les changements de modes ne sont validés que par des "bips" et non pas par des messages audios Au final, je ne regrette pas mon achat !

I ordered these and a pair of the Samsung Galaxy Buds FE to test them both out. I didn't see any reviews that addressed my questions, so, in case anyone else is looking for this info... I have VERY weird ears. I have to use two different sizes on all earbuds and they are usually TERRIBLY uncomfortable, no matter what. These are SO comfortable and they actually stay in my ears no matter what I am doing! (The Samsungs were good, fairly comfortable and stayed in, but not as well). The second major aspect for me was "can they do everything without having to get out my phone?" One of the things I liked about these is that the controls are MUCH more customizable. On the Samsungs, you have to choose between being able to manually switch noise modes OR being able to raise/lower the volume. These allow you to do both, and skip songs and stop/play. So I never have to take out my phone. The adaptive noise mode feature on both works great, but sometimes, you want to just tap and change for something they don't recognize and I want to do all that without having to reach into my pocket with my filthy hands while gardening to get my phone wet and dirty. For the "normal stuff"... Since I am not an audiophile, the sound quality kind of all sounds the same to me no matter which earbuds I buy, so... all I can say there is that I hear my music, it sounds good, I am happy. Battery life: not sure it fully meets the 10 hours, I got started this morning at about 11 am and had them playing pretty much nonstop until about 6pm and they crapped out. So that's really more like 7 hours instead of 10. But, I charged them for like 20 minute while I was talking to someone and they lasted until I was done with my work at about 8pm, so I didn't mind. Connectivity: my work today included going up and down a scaffold three storeys high on the front of my house and all the way into the basement and my garden out back. So we are talking about a range of about 15 meters front to back and an additional up/down of about 12 meters. I had my phone about in the middle of all that and I rarely disconnected. So the range is around 10-15 meters and when I did disconnect, the second I was back in range (even if I was out for a few minutes), they reconnected right away. App: the app is great, easy, user-friendly and it offers a basic equalizer. That is something that the Samsung does "better" if you want AI and Bixby and a few more modes, the "find my" function, etc. Though, I am not sure those are available to anyone but Samsung phone/tablet owners. I didn't care about any of that, I wanted "easy, good, practical". Noise cancellation: Both did really well with this, I didn't test out the Samsungs long enough to comment, but these... my work has included: sanding wood posts, sanding metal fences, cutting metal rain drains with a cricular angle grinder, pressure washing my patio and some of the metal sanding was done while i was seated about 3 meters from a jackhammer in use on concrete. So.. a LOT of VERY loud noises... It COMPLETELY cut out the higher register sounds of the grinder against the metal. I could barely hear the pressure washer and the jackhammer and the sound of the sanding (wood or metal) was still audible, but dampened quite a bit. So I was VERY pleased about that. Even without music on, just the noise cancellation feature is GREAT. Can't wait to sleep with them in while on my vacation in noisy hotels! So, after 3 days of HARD constant use, gotta say, really happy with this purchase. If anything major changes, I will update this.

Very good product for the price.
