Space A40

I just got these in the mail today. Dropped them on the wireless charger, got them to full capacity and set them up. Easy enough to pair, had to remove the little stickers over the ear bud charging contact, but then good to pair. The app was easy to set up. Has a familiar hearing test set up to fine tune the EQ for my screwed up hearing. Swapped the really tiny rubber ear bud plugs to a larger size to fit. Then fired up my music app. I was pleasantly surprised! They sound great, much better than expected! Look, people complaining about lack off bass need to realize what they stuck in their ear! For wireless ear buds, these have more than adequate bass. Great mids and highs as well. Happy with the sound quality!! I listen to old (& not so old) rock, some metal, hip hop (before it turned into whatever these kids today call hip hop), mellow "office music" all the way to singing bowls for meditation... these seem great right out of the gate. You see I got these during Amazon big deal days for about half off, $50 or so. They were gonna be back ups for my Jabra ear buds. I used to use some old Sony extra bass wired buds that cost 20 bucks 10 years ago ( the sound on those were really good for my eclectic audio preferences) as my back ups. However the new cell phones don't have a 3.5 mm plug, so I needed an extra pair of wireless when the main ones are Recharging. As of today, I can see these being in the mix with the main pair! They really sound good and fit nice too. They are comfortable at this point, but alas; I have yet to wear them for hours on end. I cannot yet verify battery life or any other longer term possible issues. I will for myself and the purpose of this review use the statements provided by Anker as true, until proven wrong. At that point, if it should arise, I will gladly return to this review and update. As of today, I would recommend these, even at full price. Unless something catastrophic occurs, I would get these again. I have alot of Anker stuff, chargers, cables etc. and haven't had any issues with those. Seems they are doing pretty good in the ear bud arena as well! Any issues arise, I will be back to let you all know!!! Thanks for reading my review, hope it helps you. UPDATE: These things have been outperforming my $250+ buds everytime. No regrets in buying these. There are still running strong. The ANC is on par with higher end units. Recently flew for a few hours each way: zero (or no noticeable) latency while watching movies- the actors mouth and words match up great. The ANC does its best with airplane noise, but still let's in some cabin buzz. I used an over the ear set of cheapy headphones with ANC in addition to these beautys and no problems, almost no noise. I highly recommend these to anyone looking for a great pair of buds; great sound, great battery life- you charge the case with a wireless charger, nice convenience. They don't fall out with snug rubber tips installed. Better than the numerous "beats" I've tried and definitely on par and outperforming my high end Jabra. Again, you should not have any issues with these at all and will be thanking that random reviewer so talking you into these!!!! Time will tell if these last, and so will I; I'll be back if anything fails on these.

This is the greatest budget earbuds I’ve genuinely ever used. It’s simple to use but you can do so much more with the app, it’s honestly really impressive how many features are in the software. The greatest feature of them all is being able to pair to two devices at once. I never knew how much I needed this, but it’s so convenient when im switching from my phone to laptop. I don’t have to worry at all about disconnecting a reconnecting my device. The box comes with different sizes of eartips, which is really nice. You can adjust a lot of the things in the app which is really convenient. I like how intuitive it is. The material of it feels like good quality plastic, and it’s really smooth. The buttons are not physical buttons, and you get no physical feedback, but they work great. The sound is also high quality, and the noise cancellation works really well when commuting. It’s honestly really impressive you get all these features for such a low price

When it comes to soundcore I’ve always loved the clear sound from their headphones and with the app, you can customize the way they sound. With this particular pair though, the custom eq fell short when it came to customization the sound. There was little to no difference no matter what I did in the app. For the fit, it’s a little bulky and larger than expected but with the extra ear tips, they can definitely stay put. Pro tip, if you struggle keeping earbuds in your ears, try true wireless memory foam tips. They expand with the heat of your body so they tend to grip more, plus creates a better noise isolation, which would pair perfectly with the noise cancellation for overall immersion. Setting these up are super easy with android and with iOS it’s the typical process with any none Apple headphones. I’m typically not a fan of touch controls on earbuds but they’re actually not bad. Not overly sensitive or a need of pressing so much to make a command. Noise cancellation, was what I expected, still very good for the cost. Mic, now I do understand with any true wireless headphones, earbuds, sometimes you do need to speak a bit louder so that the mics can pick your voice up, with these you can speak normally and the caller on the other line can hear you. The part where I was disappointed with is, I can be heard easily but it sounds terrible. Like when you speak on speaker phone and you’re just too close to the mic. That’s the best way I can explain how it sounds. Overall I really like these, I do recommend to buy, especially for the price point. High quality overall but can’t have everything when you’re budgeting.

These headphones are great. These are part of my every day items. I don't like to leave the house without these. (I proof read, and I'm re typing this after, sorry for sounding like an NPC haha). I have asked for a lot of feedback when I'm talking to others, because I want to make sure they aren't getting crazy feedback from my end and wind noise etc. They say I sound very clear, and they do mention some wind noise but I also have the Soundcore P40i. I just got them, and on the app for those, they have a wind reduction option. So honestly, if you want a great LOUD headphone with the Transparent mode also, go with the P40i. If you ride motorcycles especially, I would recommend these, or the soundcore buds that have transparent mode. If you ride with a helmet, these are great to be able to hear horns and ambulances without the price tag of beats, or pods. These headphones are priced so fair. The first pair I bought was the P20i. Over a year ago and still have them and they are working so well still. I just got the P40i the other day and those are the most insane sounding ear buds I've ever used. They have the most bass and clear sounding vocals I've ever heard on a headphone. Go Soundcore, go with the in the ear, ear buds though. Don't get the old school apple white corded ear phones, get the in the ear with the replaceable tips. I am in welding school and it gets loud. These help get rid of most of the noise, and have protected my ears from Sparks as well as slag(hardened flux that protects the weld, but is still soooo hot). :) if you're a reader, I hope we had some fun till now, and if not, sorry lol. Take care friends and please, give soundcore a try, their quality isn't defined by their cost. In this case, a fair cost for a GREAT product. Edit: I absolutely dislike when you accidentally drop the case. It violently opens up and the headphones launch out of it... It's one of the most ridiculous and dramatic things I've seen from electronics lol. That's my only complaint, make the not have a door that has a lot of pressure to open back up from the hinge lol. Literally shoots open and launches the headphones from like a 2 ft drop on carpet.... serious??? I shouldn't drop it, but I'm human! Lol! Edit:... Worth the occasional headphone and case pop fly lol. Like a 6 month review and these things are so great. Best headphones ever, and so comfortable after the initial 2 weeks for your ears to get used to them. They'll be a little irritated if you don't use ear buds a lot. Transparent mode is very close to real time sound. Edit Jan 5, 2025: Still my favorite headphones. They dropped like 6 inches onto the carpet and did the most dramatic jack in the box pop out. It was ridiculous. Still 10/10 Edit Mar 3,2026 Same pair, still going strong! Wearing them right now while writing his review. Battery life for the ear buds is a 7.5/10. Battery life for the case is definitely a solid 9/10. Might need to clean off the charging terminals with a Q tip. I’ve noticed that sometimes my right one doesn’t charge (I use it the most) and I just slightly clean the terminals after a few months, and it immediately receives a charge.

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.

So I can put these in my ear and shake my head around and they stay put and feel secure. Then, randomly, later on I can be just standing and talking to someone, with little to no head movement and an earpiece can just POP out striking the concrete or tile and ricochet under the sink into the floor drain, for example. The ambient hearing setting is pretty cool, it almost works. I mean it DOES work, but it's not the same as having nothing in your ears, it's more like having only a partially effective plug in your ear. I could still hear people speaking to me, but they were muffled and harder to hear than normal. Distance sounds were much harder to hear than nearby sounds. On noise reduction mode it worked like a normal earbud and reduced outside noise. These have been the best at phone calls that I have tried lately. They quit making the bcs700 neckband which worked great for phone calls (well, worked okay, which is better than most), so I've been experimenting with all kinds of replacement ideas. These little inside the ear earbuds are comfortable, the volume is great, the caller can hear me over the background noise around me.. which is something 99% of these things fail to achieve. They're small and their case is small, so it's not as inconvenient to take them out and put them in my shirt pocket or their case if I need to talk to someone without my ears plugged. They're tough, I guess, because one of them has hit the concrete twice, the tile once, and they other hit the tile once, and so far after 1 day they haven't shattered. That's going to be a problem though. I can't have them randomly POP-ing out of my ear to go skittering off under cabinets or whatever, especially not on construction sites where I work. They'll end up in wet cement, or down a floor drain, or buried in sawdust or something one of these times. The good: comfortable, lightweight, long-lasting (8 hrs or more), good volume, almost let's you hear ambient noises when set to that function. plus they have a cool app! The best part of the whole thing is that your caller can hear you, even in a noisy work van with tools and equipment rattling. Even with the AC on and blowing at your face. Even on a jobsite where various people are running power tools in the background. That's Fracking amazing. The bad: I never could figure out where the "button" is or what makes it think there has been a press or double press. Somewhere on this little bud is a "button" that does different functions depending on if I press, double press, or long press. I assumed it would be the big flat round piece with the logo on it, but there's nothing that gives you a tactile feedback and the device doesn't always react if I press there. sometimes it does, but sometimes it reacts as if I pressed there when I'm touching only the edge.. so I'm not sure. I'm sure it says in the manual, but I'm sure I can figure this out on my own eventually without having to resort to reading the manual!! I'm not a nerd!!! Another bad thing: They randomly POP out of your ear, especially if you happen to be over tile or concrete. If you carry a flashlight in your tool bag, that can help you spot them if they end up in a floor drain or wedged in the dark recesses of a bottle caps, broken glass, in a sticky black patch of goo that was probably formed from old beer and soda, under the sink at the bar where you are working. These might be more suited to a carpeted environment so they take less impact damage. I kind of wish I had bought some with an ear-hook so that if the bud part popped out at least it wouldn't fall to the ground. I'm going to try these another day or two, try some different eartips and see if I can reduce the POPout.

For 45$ u can’t beat these ear buds, solid 10 hour battery life about 8 hours with noise canceling on the sound quality and bass is actually impressive, just as good as 200$ JBL’s. Noise canceling is good but if ur around something a little to loud the noise canceling cuts out, honestly that’s my only complaint. They are probably the most comfortable earbuds I’ve had and the silicone part that goes in ur ear is even designed well, connects everytime, kind of wish it had a light on the bud so I can tell if it happens to not connect for some reason but I would recommend these ear buds to anyone. I pretty much exclusively got JBL’s before these ear buds and I now have a new favorite brand.

Great earphones but not for sleeping or serious noise cancellation. Soundcore makes sleep earbuds, I know, but they were much more expensive so I tried these first. The sound was great. Wonderful fit and they come with different sizes of ear tips. Easy to pair with my phone. All great until the two things I wanted them for: noise cancellation and streaming audiobooks while I sleep (the only magic cure for my insomnia). The earbuds claim 98% noise blocking. I could still hear all kinds of noises: street sounds, neighbor dogs, regular talking, the AC that I was desperately hoping to block. Noise was less but like 40% less, at most. I tried all the methods suggested to make cancellation better. Disappointing, especially when I tried my husband's Bose earbuds and no sound got through. I might have lived with this but the battery didn't last through the night in noise cancellation mode and bellowed "low battery, " seemingly at a higher volume. There's no way to turn this off?!? Come on! Even if I weren't trying to sleep I don't want earbuds yelling at me. Anyway...for regular, non-sleep uses they're great and you'll probably like them. I am grateful that these could be easily returned.

Editing my previous review, I bought this in november 2023, and loved the sound, but the batery seemed less, but i loved the sound so much tht i didnt return. After 3 month i posted a review, saying lovely sound but battery is less. I was contacted by seller saying we r sorry, and we would like to make it up to u, and we offer a ful refund. I responded tht i would prefer if u send me a new one if battery is more, they accepted immediately. I reutned the old unit without any shipping charges and a new space a40 reached me within 2 days. And i love not only love the sound, but the app customization options, now the battery is also more than +7 hrs continuous music, and charging speed is also fast. I compared these with soundpeats free 2 classic, soundpeats mini, soundpeats mini pro, soundpeats engine 4, jabra elite 7 pro, one plus evo, (yes i love collecting n enjoying alot of these.) and i can confidently say i can rank it almost at the top, in terms of sound and battery life. The best part is sellers concern, responsiveness and their confidence in their product and going out of the way to resolve a customer issue and thus winning respect and a returning customer. This was my first experience with soundcore but i m impressed n wil definitely buy again n recomend to everyone. Highly recomended

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.

Great audio for the price, noise cancellation works great in the office.

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 !

Goed en ruimtelijk geluid. Intuïtieve bediening. Noise cancellation kan beter, maar is voor mij niet zo belangrijk. Helaas alleen koppelbaar maar met 1 apparaat tegelijkertijd. Geweldige prijs/kwaliteit verhouding.
