Great performance to cost ratio
Fantastic sound quality, signal strength, and comfort compared to the cost.

All about that bass.
Soundcore has been hitting home runs in their wireless headsets and buds, and the Q11i is no exception. The design language is not all that special but is good-looking enough to take them on the road. I do wish the headband wasn’t as wide, meaning bring the sides closer. The headset is mostly plastic with a metal slider, and although the build quality feels kind of cheap, they seem well-made and sturdy. The buttons are quite tactile, which I prefer better than touch controls.The headband and ear pads are plush, super soft, and quite comfortable. The head clamping is light, but I still noticed my ears get hot and the top of my head a bit sore after a long while (2 hours or more). I would certainly not recommend them for exercising as I don’t know how they will react to sweat, but that is a personal preference. I appreciate the ability to take off the ear pads to wash or exchange them. They are collapsible which makes them very portable.The headset paired easily with my Pixel 9 phone and my Snapdragon Windows laptop simultaneously. The controls take some getting used to as they are not obvious to the touch, except for the Mode button. Nevertheless, the controls are responsive. I noticed no connectivity hiccups, even at a distance. Also, there were no discernable lag or sync issues when watching video content or playing games.The call quality is OK. I was heard clearly in semi-quiet environments, but I did notice lower-quality audio in loud or windy environments.These headphones do not offer noise cancellation, but the passive noise reduction works well when the earpads are properly worn. The same goes for ambient awareness, while it is difficult to hear things when wearing them, there is some level of awareness available. I will say that there is very little leakage at low-to-medium volume.The 60-hour battery life is a strong benefit, which may be due to not having ANC/Ambient support. I had them for a few days and they are at 60% and going strong. It helps that the headset features quick charging (5min=4hrs!).Keeping in mind that sound is highly subjective, I’d say that the Q11i is geared towards bass-oriented listeners. I listened to both high-quality HD streaming and lossless files. The tuning has a warm-dark deep “V” shape. The bass is strong but controlled. The midrange is subdued but still allows for rhythm instruments and some vocals to come through. The treble is still there, adding much-needed clarity. The soundstage is minimal, and the imaging is contained. It’s more of an intimate listening experience. The bass boost was unnecessary in my opinion, as the bass is already emphasized, and activating this mode makes them sound very muddy. These headphones are perfect for heavy bass music, but certainly not for critical listening. Oh, they are great for action-oriented movies too!The companion app does not bring anything to the table. There, you can just choose the sound mode and update the firmware. That’s it.I would highly recommend the Q11i for the young ones since they are fun, inexpensive headphones, that seem like they would take some punishment. Or as a secondary headset when the need for bass is just what you need.

Impressive Sound & Exceptional Value
These Soundcore Q11i headphones by Anker have genuinely impressed me, especially considering their very affordable price point. While I own higher-end headphones in both over-the-ear and earbud styles, these deliver a surprising level of performance that holds its own. The sound quality is excellent, especially when fine-tuned using the Soundcore app. While the app is basic, the ability to customize the sound makes a noticeable difference, especially for bass-heavy tracks.One feature I love is the fast-charging capability – a 5-minute charge gives up to 4 hours of playtime, which is incredibly convenient for anyone on the go. The 60-hour battery life is also a standout, making these a great choice for extended use without worrying about frequent recharging.Comfort is another strong point. The ear cushions are soft and provide a good seal for passive noise reduction. The lightweight design and adjustable headband make them easy to wear for long periods, though I did notice some warmth around the ears after extended use. The headphones feel sturdy despite being mostly plastic, and the detachable ear cushions are a nice touch for cleaning or replacing.In terms of sound, these headphones are excellent for casual listening. They’re tuned with a bass-forward profile that’s particularly enjoyable for music and action-packed movies. While they might not be the best choice for critical listening or studio work due to their emphasis on bass, they deliver a rich, immersive experience perfect for everyday use.Overall, the Q11i headphones offer incredible value for their price. With a solid build, great sound, long battery life, and thoughtful features like fast charging and detachable ear cushions, they’re perfect for anyone looking for reliable headphones without breaking the bank.

Très bon produit, bon rapport qualité/prix.Design, léger, souple, bonne autonomie, bon son.Il est assez peu encombrant, léger, minimaliste.Les coussins (oreilles et arceau) sont suffisamment confortables, mais on pourrait faire un peu mieux.La matériau du revêtement des coussins est agréable, doux et fin, à voir dans le temps la résistance à l’usure.Les coussins d’oreilles sont détachables, pratique pour le remplacement, cependant à l’heure actuelle je n’en ai pas trouvé, le casque venant de sortir cela viendra peut-être plus tard.Les boutons sont pas trop mal pensés, on a le VOL+ au plus haut/arrière, puis le ON/OFF au milieu avec inscriptions en relief on se repère plus facilement, puis le VOL-, et le BASS séparé vers l’avant.Le son est de bonne qualité, il y a de bonnes basses de base, le bouton BASS fait passer en mode Amplification des graves dans l’appli Soundcore sur smartphone.L’appli est pas mal, il y a plein de préréglages sympas.Dommage que ce ne soit dispo que sur smarpthone, et pas sur l’ordi.Bon point positif : pouvoir être connecté en bluetooth à 2 sources en même temps, c’est vraiment pratique, le dernier périphérique à lancer un audio prendra le dessus sur l’autre, on peut choisir sur l’appli quel périph on veut activer/désactiver, on peut en enregistrer d’autres.L’autonomie est vraiment bonne, à la première connexion le casque était indiqué à 60% de batterie, et après 17h d’écoute il est à 40%, donc les 60h annoncés semblent être tenues.A ce prix là il vaut vraiment le coup.

Lo único que les falta por ese precio, que ya muchos otros que no suenan tan bien como estos, pero que tampoco suenan tan mal, seria lo de la cancelación de ruido activa (ANC), pero ni tan mal con lo que si tienen, que es un sonido estupendo, con mucho cuerpo, y eso incluso sin ecualizar, unos bajos potentes que se activan con un botón dedicado, carga rápida para hasta 60 horas de reproducción, un cable de audio auxiliar porque tiene entrada dedicada también y su cable de carga.Todo esto, muy bien presentado, embalado y protegido.Otros detalles interesantes son que son compatibles con Hi Res Audio* y que disponen de app propia para el tema de la ecualizacion y control con más de 20 pre ajustes ya incluidos para que suenen como tu quieras. Además las almohadillas son retirables y cambiables en caso de deterioro.Por el precio que tienen, son unos auriculares muy buenos, muy cómodos y con una gran calidad de sonido y autonomía. Muy recomendables!*El Hi Res Audio es una característica de los archivos de audio en su creación y compresión, y solo les pueden sacar partidos los aparatos reproductores que están certificados y que son compatibles, es decir, que estos auriculares no harán magia sobre tus pistas de audio si estas no te las has conseguido con la calidad adecuada, así que es una característica notable, pero que funciona asi, para que nadie se lleve a error o impresiones indicadas.
