I have been using for over a year with no issues. Great battery life, easy to connect and swap between devices and fit well. A bit quieter than in ear but can hear your surroundings making them good for running with no difference in audio quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant Earphones.

S.A. · 4 September 2024

These earphones are absolutely brilliant. I suffer really badly with claustrophobia and wearing headphones or in ear earphones triggers my claustrophobia. These earphones do not do that. They sit comfortably over the ear and around without covering the ear or stopping you from hearing your surroundings. They are really secure so I can happily complete tasks and go hiking without fearing I’ll lose them.The sound quality is surprisingly very good and can be adjusted using the soundcore app. I have not dealt with any distortion at higher sound levels either. The app allows you to program each earphone button exactly how you want it plus help you learn all about them. I use them almost all day, every day now.They are also handy if you suffer with noise triggers and anxiety in public. I now use them with low sound levels in public to help me with anxiety as I can still hear everything else around me and conversation but can focus on my music/sounds if I’m becoming anxious.My 60yo mum loved them after trying mine so that she bought a pair of her own within a few days.They’re easy to set up, connect really easily and are so versatile to use in so many settings.Only thing I would wish for is that they were available in other colours.

4.0 out of 5 stars Clear sound with minor flaws.

P. · 19 August 2024

These were bundles as part of a deal when buying a Soundcore speaker, so I was pleased to find they were decent to use. Sound quality is lost slightly as they don't sit in the ear, instead just outside and focus sound in. This doesn't give the same crisp sound as in ear headphones/ buds so music can somtimes feel flat. Both myself and partner have used these and at no point have we had any problems with stability on the ear. They fit well, are comfortable and are light enough to not be too much of an irritation. Battery life is good as they last for a fair few gym/ running sessions before needing to be recharged.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent sound quality & great fit!

D. · 22 February 2024

I was looking for a set of open-ear headphones and initially bought a slightly cheaper product from a different manufacturer; that was a bad idea - terrible connectivity and poor sound. The good things are that 1) Bolo has great returns and 2) I now have a nice frame of reference when considering these soundcore devices.The goodPretty much everything. Nicely packaged, includes charging case, earphones, and usb c charging cable. A very basic Quickstart guide is included; the main manual is available from the Bolo product page.Fit on these units is really good for adults of various sizes and larger children. Really comfortable clip behind ear is effective in keeping earphones positioned and without falling out (even when running)Sound quality is superb given their open-ear nature. Of course full headphones will sound better, as will quality in-ear units - but these are surprisingly good. Plenty of bass, but not overbearing. Options to change the sound parameters via the app.Connectivity is great with my stock android phone. Bluetooth connects easily, range is about 8m (line of sight), slightly less with walls etc in the way. You won't have a problem with your phone being in your pocket when exercising!App is good, with nice options to configure the product (and without stealing all of your personal data)The less goodNot much really. It would be nice if the charging case had visual indication of the charging status; instead you have to check the app. It would be nice if the product was cheaper (obviously), but as-is represents good value for money compared to more expensive options.OverallI'm really pleased with this purchase; I hope they last for the 24 month warranty period!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome

Usual excellent soundcore build quality and although they are not over ear quality headphones they do sound pretty dam good, they stay securely and comfortably on my ears while cycling and training and are pretty dam good while lying in the garden just chilling listening to music or a audio book, well packaged and arrived earlier than expected

5.0 out of 5 stars Super Balanced Sound

M.H. · 13 March 2024

Lovely frequency range and balanced sound. Crisp highs and mids. The bottom end isn't deep and full but having said that it's adequate for enjoying your music.Very comfortable and light. Can't feel them when they are on and you can hear your surroundings well.It's strange to explain but the loss of bass compared with larger over ear headphones is compensated by comfort and awareness of your surroundings.To my delight I can wear them in bed and even lying on my side they are still comfortable! Oddly satisfying.I never want to take them off. The customisable EQ and assignable touch controls are fantastic. Great work by Soundcore.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great sound quality, no background noise reduction

c. · 16 May 2024

I tried these as an alternative to over the ear headphones for work use, but there is no external noise reduction, so literally everything around you is picked up on the mic! Good for music, not for audio and video calls!!

Na de zoveelste aankoop van "de beste oortjes ooit"(?) en die allen om de één of andere reden (uit je oren vallen, pijn doen, e.d.)in de vuilbak belanden, kocht ik zonder veel enthousiasme de Anker V30i op oortjes. Zij zijn zonder meer zalig om dragen, de klank is voor mij uitstekend en ik kan een hele film bekijken zonder dat ik ze voel. Deze zijn top!

Three days in, I'm ridiculously pleased

B.P. · 9 April 2024

Like many other commenters on this and comparable products, the starting point for me purchasing these lies in the fact that traditional earbuds cause me pain. However, in my case these headphones aren't the first pair of open-ears that I've owned, they're the fourth pair. I had not one but two pairs of Avantree Pebbles. The first was a pre-ordered pair that ended up dying after a few months. The second pair was a warranty replacement that died after a few months. To Avantree's credit, they refunded me after the second pair died. Then, I purchased a pair of Truefree 01s. Those I returned after two days because the battery life and phone call quality were terrible. Then I saw that Anker, which made a portable charger that I love, made Soundcore and that Soundcore made these. I scooped them up on a sale and am thrilled to find a number of things that have been wanting in previous headphones generally, including the open-ears I've mentioned. Here's a list:a) Like other open-ear headphones, these don't hurt my ear canals and they allow me to hear background noise while I'm moving around the house or walking/biking to work.b) The volume on these is *loud.* I listen at half volume while biking. I don't understand how some commenters are struggling to hear things with these on - their ears must work differently than mine or they received a fundamentally different product.c) As a non-audiophile, the sound quality on these seems great. Significantly more bass than my Jabra Elite 3s or Avantree Pebbles had.d) The touch controls are really well-designed. They are sensitive enough that I don't feel like I'm having to repeat touches but not so sensitive that I trigger them accidentally. Plus, the touch point is a raised ridge on top of another raised ridge, which makes it easy to feel whether you hit it, and they make a short, simple, non-obtrusive tone to let you know when a touch is registered. Then, the cherry on top is that the branded app you can download allows you to customize what each touch does *for each ear,* so you can really configure things how you want. I've never had that in any pair of headphones.e) As other commenters have noted, the phone call quality is astonishingly good. I have long wanted to find a pair of headphones that I could use while biking home from work, but having tried so many headphones and bluetooth headsets I had accepted that unless I was going to drop a lot more money than I could justify, the best I could get was an acceptable call quality while walking, as long as the wind wasn't too strong. Much to my surprise, I tested these out last night by calling my wife while biking home *and she could hear me the whole time.* Not once did she ask me to repeat myself, even when I was biking on gravel.f) The case is less bulky than other open-ear headphones. It's still bigger than in-ear headphone cases, but this is small enough that I can comfortably keep it in my pocket while I'm wandering around the house. I probably wouldn't want to do that while going about my work day but it also fits in my shoulder bag (and backpack, obviously) no problem. This is noteworthy because with previous open-ears I felt the need to leave the case at home because it was so bulky. The Avantree Pebbles worked well enough by turning them off and pocketing them. The Truefree 01s didn't do well with that at all - they kept turning back on and auto playing in my pocket. I haven't experimented with pocketing these yet because I haven't felt the need, thanks to the relatively slim case.For all these reasons, I am thrilled that I decided to pick these up. Obviously the one question I can't answer this shortly in is how long they will last. Here's hoping they hold up, because I can't imagine finding a better pair of headphones for me, especially such affordable ones!

great customer service - great replacement product

R.S.M. · 8 August 2024

like the way the headset sits on the ear. good price. works well once the phone is connected.However now my big issue- it pairs with two phones but one has to disconnect the headset from one phone before it can be used by the other phone (Bluetooth off or disconnect needed) it is not picking up which phone is active at the time.Update 3/9/24after leaving my initial review the Anker customer support team contacted me, offering refund or replacement - which was a very pleasant surprise :-). The replacement product AeroFit offers the dual connection setup (for two phones) via the mobile phone app. For privacy reasons I have a work phone, and a private phone and the dual connection mode enable me to use the AeroFit earphones without switching/disconnecting in Bluetooth.Both the V30i and the AeroFit open ear earphones have great sound and battery life, charge fast and are comfortable to wear. For me the dual connection was the critical point and I'm very pleased with the Anker Soundcore team offering me the AeroFit earphones replacement option.CheersReinhard

están bien

J. · 12 October 2024

49€ he pagado por los v30i y están bien. Al principio flipaba con ellos, buenos grabes, buen volumen, muy cómodos, no te enteras de que los llevas, aguantan bien, no se caen. Ahora llevo un mes con ellos y quizá porque me he acostumbrado me parecen más normales. Me da la impresión de que poco a poco se van haciendo a mi oreja y ya no se quedan tan pegados al conducto auditivo como al principio. Merecen la pena, puedes apoyar la cabeza sobre una almohada y no se mueven. Los uso en casa y me permiten incluso hablar con otra persona. En la calle los he usado pero depende por donde vaya, si hay muchos coches no tiene bloqueo de sonido externo, si hay pájaros los oyes trinar y es bonito. Estoy contento, se oyen bien y en casa van geniales.

Soundcore by Anker V30i Open-Ear Headphones

W.T. · 17 June 2025

I LOVE these. I have bought so many pairs of headphones, trying to find the right pair. I have 6 different pairs that I have been swapping between. Over the ear, in ear buds / IEM's (my favorites), and open ear. These are my favorite open ear by far.Let me start by saying that ear buds are my preferred type of headphone, but I also have HORRIBLE (all year) seasonal allergies, so ear buds have started to cause a great deal of agitation inside of my ear canals. I also have stretched ear lobes (9/16), so a lot of headphones just don't sit right depending on what plugs I am wearing and they press into the sides of my head. These headphones solved both of those issues for me.Like others have said, these are so comfortable that you sometimes forget they are even on. The sound quality is good, more than enough in my opinion. I am not an audiophile by any means. I do prefer my IEM's as far as quality of sound goes, and of course open ear headphones won't sound as good as those when they are pressed right up into your ear drums (dramatic effect), but the sound on these is good, and the bass is good enough. I love that I can be jamming out at work and yet still hear someone approach me and not get the bejesus scared out of me.The quality of the actual headphones is good. They don't look or feel cheap, the magnet on the charging case stays closed as well (this is a bigger deal than one would think). My only (very) small issue is the touch controls are super sensitive. BUT thankfully with the app you can go in and shut those bad boys right off and not even have to deal with them. And speaking on that, these have been easy to connect to every bluetooth device I have tried, and the app is easy to install and use, it is super straightforward and you don't have to be tech savvy to figure it out.TLDR;I have allergies and stretched ears, these help alleviate the issues that come with both when wearing headphones. The sound is good, the bass is decent, and the fit is super comfortable. In my opinion, these are definitely worth the purchase. The quality is great, especially for the price point.
