I got a pair of these on a previous deal. Sound is decent. Comparable to others in the $35 - $50 range. But it does have problems with calls in noisy environments. I'm not sure if it's the "AI" boosting the background sounds or noises, but I've had callers mention certain background noises (i.e. air wrench) are very loud when it's really not in the real world. Also if anyone is talking around you (i.e. the people in front of you in the checkout lane, or someone else in your car), it'll boost their voice also to the caller. I went back to my OnePlus buds for calls and will only use these for audio.

Looks like the life p3i is on "sale" as well for $33. Think I'm going to get those instead for the noise cancelling features.

I have the identical p25i. They are okay, sound quality is bleh, the app has some preset EQs, but I never bother changing it.

Battery life is good. I prefer physical buttons to touch, but the touch isn't overly sensitive and you can handle them without accidentally pushing the touch button. And you can customize the button functions in app, which was nice.

$20 is okay, definitely a sub-$20 pair. You could probably get the same mediocre sound quality for $10-15 on a no-name Amazon pair, but the app and customization is good for the price.

I have the p3i, and used them daily for the past 8 months. I am very happy with them. The soundcore app works well and you can adjust NC on or off as well as various listening modes.

Seconding. I just got the p3i after finally losing my Airpods of 4+ years at the end of last year. They're not perfect like the Airpods were with my iPhone but for the price they provide great value and great features, like decent noise cancellation. At least now I'm not worried about losing them too much either. Maybe down the line I'll consider upgrading but for now I'll stick with these p3i buds.

I have these and for the price they are great. Clear sound, decent bass, snug fit and good battery life. Got a pair for the wife to use with her iPad and she likes them as well.

I bought a white pair for $20 on October 11th. I own a few Anker products and I like them. I did not like these. I used them for about two weeks and the sound was muddy and they quit working for 24 hours when they got wet.

I returned them. I use Sony WF-C500's that were on sale for $28 on SD around the same time. They are my favorite at the moment. Worth the extra $8, without question.

I bought these during the last sale.

#1 the battery life is really good, I've only had to charge them once
#2 can hardly tell they're in your ears, super light weight and comfortable
#3 noise cancelling works great, I can listen to them at full blast and the guy who sits right next to me at work has no idea
#4 really good volume level and sound quality

i had the liberty air 3 for about $40 from verizon deal a few months back. that one has pretty good sound quality, but despite a whole package of different buds they provide none of them could sit inside my ear properly, and now the right one has muted / very weak sound volume all of a sudden. I got this p20i arrived yesterday, didn't have all those varieties of buds, went straight into my ear and never fell out. the sound quality is not as great but sure beats the hell out of adjusting the earbud every 3 minutes so it don't fall out.
