Great headphones!
Color: Black
Great headphone! They work well and sound quality was pretty good. Definitely worth the money. I love that they’re not inserted into the ear. It allows me to hear things going on around me but not so much that I can’t hear my music. They’re pretty comfortable too! I have smaller ears and the earbuds that you put into your ear tend to hurt after some time. These typically don’t.

If you’re curious about open ear earphones give these a try
Color: Black, Color: Black
I don’t normally review but these are genuinely great quality, especially for the price! I was skeptical about open ear for sound quality/comfort to be honest and the first couple days I used them they were a but uncomfortable and my ears hurt after a while, but once you figure out how to fit them properly and get used to it they’re actually incredibly comfortable, so much that I often forget I have them on lol. The part that hooks on your ear is a soft bendy plastic, silicone-like so it’s pretty forgiving for different ear shapes. I love the dual connecting Bluetooth as well, super useful for switching between tasks on different devices. The sound quality is pretty on par with higher end options and it doesn’t really leak sound much either, even though it’s open ear which is great, also allows you to still hear your surroundings really well so good for commuting/out and about/office work. Great battery life and they charge quickly in the case, I work in video editing so use them pretty much all day and with the case they last several days before needing a recharge. I’ve had them for a couple months now I think and I’m really glad I went with this option. Absolutely the best option I’ve tried around this price point, anker products as a whole I’ve found are really great quality at a very reasonable price.

COMFORT KING 👑✨
Color: White
I struggle finding headsets that don't bother my ears OR cause headsets 🙈 others will just fall right out which gets super annoying... These on the other hand, are like air!! I genuinely cannot even tell I'm wearing them! The ear piece is adjustable for all (or most) ears! The sound quality is amazing while still being able to hear what's going on around me. They don't fall out, the adjustments help with that too! Even on the tightest setting, it's not uncomfortable, the silicone really feels like butter. My only semi-complaint is that the battery doesn't seem to last very long, but I've only used them out of the box 🙈 I'm gonna charge a full day and see how they do! Honestly not a major problem anyway because I only wear one for work, when one dies I just swap to the other. Connectivity is quick and easy! If you are picky about ear comfort, I promise you, these will not let you down!! ABSOLUTELY WORTH THE MONEY

Good value
Color: Black
These arrived a day early and I am currently wearing them as I write this. So far these aren't bad and I'm having a hard time complaining about what you get for the price. I got these for around $30 and the fact these have touch controls and an app you can use to adjust the EQ, the touch settings, and other things already makes them a good deal. The main reason I bought these is because I needed a pair of open earbuds for work so I can listen to music while still being able to hear what's going on around me. The sound quality isn't terrible but it isn't going to blow you away either. It's kind of like having 2 cheap but decent Bluetooth speakers strapped to your ears. Out of the box they might sound a tad muddy but I like using the hip hop or electronic EQ settings to make them sound more clear with added bass. They don't sound as good as in-ear earbuds (mainly because the bass isn't as rumbly) but they still sound really good, especially for the price. Once you change the EQ settings they have good clarity and you can hear the subtle nuances of each instrument. And although you can't really feel the rumble of the bass you can definitely hear it and most songs sound great on these in my opinion. I did notice that some songs with heavy sub bass sound kind of weird though. The touch controls work pretty well but hitting the right spot can be a little tricky especially when doing double taps. These also stay locked to your ears pretty well. You could headbang to some heavy metal music and these will not be sent into orbit. Some people say these are comfortable and you almost forget you're wearing them but I've had them on for about an hour and I can definitely still feel them. They aren't the most comfortable earbuds I've ever worn but they don't feel that bad either. I wore them at work most of the day and only my left ear started to feel slightly uncomfortable but I think that was just because the earbud needed to be adjusted a bit. The battery life is great and the case has fast charging which is convenient if you want to throw them in the case on your lunch break and get enough juice to last the rest of the day. The case is also smaller than I expected. I thought it would be bigger considering the size of the earbuds but it's literally the length of a toilet paper roll (i'm sick and have a roll laying on my bed next to the case) and it's about as wide as the upper part of your palm and as thick as a mcdonalds cheeseburger lol if you want a solid pair of open ear buds for work but aren't trying to spend a fortune these are a good option to consider. Just keep in mind that you aren't going to get super high quality studio level sound from these but that's not what they're made for anyway.

Soundcore V20i: Seamless Bluetooth Switching, Long Battery Life, No Drama
Color: Black
Alright… listen up, Amazonians. I don’t write reviews. I avoid them like I avoid assembling IKEA furniture without instructions. But these Soundcore V20i headphones dragged me in here against my will. I’ve spent enough money on headphones over the years to qualify for a small auto loan—Apple, Samsung, Bose… if it had a fancy box and a price tag that made me uncomfortable, I bought it. And yet somehow THESE are the ones that made me stop mid-day and go, “Wait… why do these work better than everything else I own?” Now let’s manage expectations before anyone accuses me of losing my mind: do they sound like you’re sitting front row at a live concert? No. Do the ear hooks feel like they could use a little more cushion? Yes. Do they have noise cancellation? Absolutely not—you will still hear your dog barking, your coworkers talking, and every bad decision echoing in your head. Are they waterproof? Also no. If you drop these in a pool, that’s on you, not Anker. BUT… these things have one superpower, and it’s the one feature that apparently every $200+ pair of headphones forgot to get right: they switch between my phone and computer like they’ve achieved enlightenment. I’m on my computer all day—calls, music, more calls, more music, repeat until I question my life choices. Before these headphones, switching devices felt like negotiating a hostage situation. “Why won’t you connect?” “Why are you connected to the wrong device?” “WHY ARE YOU CONNECTED TO THE NEIGHBOR’S TV??” With these? Call comes in—boom, switches instantly. Call ends—boom, right back to music. No button mashing, no Bluetooth menu gymnastics, no yelling into the void. It just works. The only thing I’ve used that even comes close is AirPods, but try using those outside the Apple ecosystem and suddenly you’re troubleshooting like it’s 2007 and you just installed a printer. These? They don’t care what you’re using. Windows? Cool. Samsung phone? Great. Chaos in your life? Handled. They’re comfortable, they don’t feel like they’re trying to burrow into your skull, and they actually stay on your ears when you move around like a normal human being instead of a statue. Oh—and the battery life? Ridiculous. I keep waiting for them to die and they just… don’t. At this point I’m convinced they’re powered by spite or dark magic. Are they perfect? No. Do they do the ONE thing I actually need better than anything else I’ve tried? Shockingly, yes. For this price, it’s honestly ridiculous. Anker really woke up and said, “What if we just made something that works… and didn’t charge a kidney for it?” Bold. Respect!
