I bought these in pink for my wife. Sound is decent, headset is very light. I don't care for the button to turn on & off the headset. You have to press and hold for almost 5 or 6 seconds. That's too long for me. It doesn't completely block sound out.Other than that, it's decent for home use.
24 Hour deal with 18Hr 42Mins left at the time of this post.

The Q20's and Q35's are also on the same 25% Off Sale.

I've got both the Q20 and Q30 and agree. When I need the better noise blocking I use the Q20. Otherwise I use the Q30 as the ear cups seem larger/more comfortable and I prefer the USB-C charging over the micro-USB charging of the Q20.

The control (volume, power etc) buttons are more tactile and easier for me to find and use on the Q20 but that's not a big deal for me.

The Q30 can also receive firmware updates via the Soundcore app. Q20 cannot.

I use these headphones at work pretty much everyday. I'm in a co-working space where it can get loud and it cuts away most of the outside noise, allowing you to focus.

Sure, it's not 100% ANC and I know $200+ pairs probably perform better, but if you're not an audiophile, you'll enjoy these.

Put these headphones on and distractions go away. It's also super light so I can wear it for 6+ hours easily. I have zero complaints other than a bit of noise bleed at high volumes. My neighbor about 6ft away can hear it at 85% volume. The sweet spot is 60-75%.

Simply put, if these are your first ANC over ear headphones, you can't go wrong. And put another way... if my headphones died tomorrow, I'd buy the same thing again.

Go on eBay. Buy the Razer opus. They're like $75 new. Decent XM3 alternatives. Look up their review on rtings if you don't believe me.

Damn bought these for 80$ month and a half ago. Don't regret it because they're amazing but 60$ is better than 80$ lol

The plastic pieces on the headband broke after a month of usage for me with normal usage. YMMV but I ended up returning mine as I was a bit concerned about how long they would last.

Can anyone comment on the latency of the Q30? I have the Q20 and the latency is noticable. I no longer use the Q20 for videos, but it's been great for music and calls while walking the dog.

just got the q30 , after 2 hours of usage, very little latency , in the q20, i would always have to disconect and connect again to fix the latency after about 30 mins of usage.

What do you think of the xm3's?
I have them and since always having Bose for NC and comfort, I actually went with Sony, the Bose just didn't feel as comfortable this time around. And inside ear pad metal was touching my ears. Not to mention the padding is soft but I would say its more firmer than the older model which I actually loved because of the soft padding that made them feel very comfortable.

I use these for cutting the grass and dog walking, works well. Light, comfortable, decent sound and ANC. Phone calls aren't amazing.

Means about 1/2 the ratings are fake or paid for. Not surprising for a product like this.

This would seem to be a functional problem for use on an airplane. Where you're not suppose to use Bluetooth. Are you able to downgrade the firmware?

I talked to support and they said there's no way to downgrade the firmware, and that even if done so it wouldn't address the chip manufacturer disabling but I'm not sure about the last part

I understand. But I'm ask what does it mean in terms of product quality.

Having paid or sponsor reviews doesn't mean the product is guaranteed sh*t.

I guess I'm returning before I even receive them. My purpose, which is using while flying, requires and is the primary purpose of the wired connection. What were they thinking?

What difference does bluetooth connectivity matter while one is using a wired connection? And apparently this is not an issue in the Q35's.
