I have been on the hunt for a head set that doesn't squeeze my head, and I am not a fan of earbuds. Both give me migraines, but I needed something I could have Zoom calls with. I was super excited when I discovered these! I have worn them for up to two hours so far, and no migraine, so that was a massive win! If you have the same issue as me, you might look into this style. They might work for you!My honest opinion is that they are light and comfortable. They obviously do not have the same sound quality as over-ear headphones, but I am pretty impressed with their sound, and they work well with work meetings. People can hear me and I can hear them. I have not fully tested out the battery life, but I think I got 4 hours out of them once, and they still didn't need a charge. Honestly, my one complaint is the Bluetooth connection. When I listen to music, they cut out fairly regularly. They are super short gaps; maybe half a second, but it is frustrating because it almost feels like a pulse in your ears. I would have rated these higher if not for sending my first pair back for that reason, and my second pair does the same thing. If I find out that I am doing something wrong, I will absolutely come back and update my review for 5 stars. Until then, that's all I feel I can give them, unfortunately.

I have small/sensitive ears and these are the best ones I’ve found! I can wear them forever without it hurting my ears. Sound quality is not as good as other models but I think that’s mostly cuz it rests further from the ear. But the sound quality is still decent! Overall I’m very happy with these because I’ve FINALLY found one that’s comfy!

Day 1 review- will update again in 30 days.Received these headphones today, immediately out of the box they are ready to pair and play, the color is very nice, case is sturdy, and the headphones themselves are actually pretty cute. I did add the medium sizers to them, but they were easy to attach, and comfortable to wear. I think until I get used to having them sit the way they do they will feel odd, but hopefully that changes. Sound quality was far better than I had anticipated, and from Spotify to a phone call, no issues with connectivity or clarity of sound. I did fully charge the case and will have my first full day with them tomorrow so battery info and functionality in my office will definitely be tested. I look forward to using these in place of my AirPods (that fall out of my eenie weenie ears CONSTANTLY) and will update with more info!

Seit ein paar Tagen besitze ich die soundcore c40i und bin begeistert. Die sind die bequemsten Kopfhörer, die ich besitze. Ich kann sie stundenlang tragen und mit ihnen Musik hören. Für mich haben sie auch genug Bass, was ja Bauart bedingt nicht so viel ist, wie bei in ears. Ich nutze den Bassverstärker in der App und für mich klingen sie gut so. Ich muss aber sagen, dass ich bei in ears den Bass immer ein Stück runter regele und die Höhen ein Stück hoch. Das liegt vielleicht auch am Alter. Nachteile der C40i konnte ich noch nicht feststellen.

I have 4 sets of open ear headphones including these. These are by far the best!! They're comfortable, the battery lasts, the sound quality for clip on or open air headphones is amazing. I'm able to wear these and listen or be part of the world around me, while still be immersed in music, podcasts or anything else. Over the ear or on the ear headphones block the world out and are great for that, but these let you have your own soundtrack and background music in every day life. Plus, Anker/SoundCore is tier1 quality and customer service..

Great battery life, solid sound quality, multipoint bluetooth connectivity that actually works consistently, and so comfortable I actually forget I'm wearing them sometimes. Absolute slam dunk product if headphones normally fall out of your ears, these hold a rock solid grip and stay comfortable for all day zoom calls

These are a great option for an open-ear design at this price point, the sound is very full and balanced, impressive bass and volume without becoming distorted, I rarely feel the need to turn them up too much even when in a noisy area.I LOVE the Soundcore app, that’s another aspect that really makes it feel like the product is punching above its weight. The app adds so many excellent options to adjust and customize the sound to your liking, is very responsive and quick to update the earbuds, and I’ve run into minimal bugs. The app is also excellent for their sleep earbuds and you can create customized relaxing sounds to upload to the onboard memory (not applicable to this open-ear model, but figured I’d mention it.)Small complaints would be the lack of wireless charging, which is not a huge deal but would have loved to see it to complement my wireless charging docks.Comfort is another slight issue, they feel a bit large and heavy on my small ears, I think these would fit medium-sized ears best, and may be too tight on large or thick ear shapes.They do include some additional small plastic sleeves to slide onto the earbuds to adjust the gap size to be a little smaller (and credit to them for including two sizes, I need different sizes for each ear), but if you have larger ears you’re mostly out of luck, as they will be stiff and probably feel pinchy.I wish they had done a similar design to the Bose Ultra Open buds which I find myself reaching for more often because of the comfort, but still plan to use the Soundcore buds in the summer when they’re more likely to be exposed to moisture and sweat since they have a better water resistance rating.Also concerned I’ll have to remove the plastic sizing sleeves if any moisture collects in there, and I also had one of them crack in half randomly while sitting in the charging case (no idea how that happened!) so I may have to contact the company to get some spares. Wish they sold those separately!As far as I can tell the battery life is very good, though I haven’t used them for a long enough stretch at a time to drain them, so I’m unsure if they live up to the advertised length of time.Overall these are definitely worth a try, I favor the Bose just slightly because of the comfort, but the Soundcore are a really solid pick if they fit you and are a very thoughtfully designed device.

This was my first time buying this brand. The volume was ok the first time I used it. The second day the maximum volume went down to half. I could barely follow a podcast turning it at a maximum volume. You can forget about using it outside. It's horrable. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I am returning mine.
