You can actually change the earpads. I just bought the Q35 earpads and put them on my Q30 model as both models fit together.

I really like the concept of this video, great work!

Fwiw, the experiment would be better if the folks were critiquing without knowing the brand names. Most everyone knows the other brand names, and perhaps there’s an assumption there premium/ better simply because of the brand names. i.e. have them listen to the exact same snippets of music while blindfolded etc. Price and name brand do effect a lot of folks. 😊🍻

Soundcore is great! I would prefer my Life Tune/Q30 over my XM5 for long period of use. It may not come anywhere close to Sony XM5's ANC (the XM5 is still unbeatable when it comes to Active Noise Cancelation), but the Soundcore Life Tune is more comfy, and feels more lighter and balanced. It really is a big bang for the buck!

I have ADHD. Loud noises and background noises can cause genuine and heavy distress. On top of that, I really like to listen to music, and podcasts. Ive had these headphones for 4 years, and here is what I have to say;

Battery; I can out them on to charge for about 5 to 10 minutes, and have a good few hours to use them. Additionally, they only take about 30 minutes to an hour for a full charge, and running constantly, theyll give me about 3 days before dying. I have a habit of dropping things quite a bit, these headphones included. It was only when I had a really nasty fall that the sides broke, and they still worked. They broke completely a few months afterwards from being dropped, but that was only because of the pretty bad damage it took from the previous fall, which left it more suceptible to further falls. Once it broke, i got a new one, reinforced it with black electric tape, and its been good for years. No wear on the pads, no difference in quality.

Here are a few of the bad things, that have no long term effect, and go away.

The noise cancelling mode has two flaws; it places a sort of pressure on the ears that come to hurt after a few hours, and when first buying both of the headphones, it would often make a loud, high-pitched, screeching feedback.

For both headphones, it took a week or two, and the feedback stopped completely, even though i hadnt used the noise cancelling feature during that time. As for the pressure, you get used to it within a few days, and the mild discomfort/pain leaves entirely.

Other than that, the headset is perfect, and like I said, the problems are temporary.

Theyre strong, good battery, and high quality.

With the Q35 And Now The Q45 Soundcore Has won me over for sound quality over the xm3 4 5 from Sony . I enjoy the even better sound when listening to My Q35 and Q45 wired powered off . The XM5 ARE UTTERLY DISAPPOINTING ONLY HAVING THE AMAZING ANC GOING FOR THEM

I have the q30s and once you play around with the sound settings in the app, they definitely sound really good. I tend to enjoy lots of bass in my songs and the app lets me adjust that. Plus spotifys own equalizer I can add even more bass 😂 I’m wanting to upgrade to the 45s in the future but I kept hearing that they weren’t as good as the 30s so I’m not sure if I should upgrade or just get another pair of 30s once these finally go poof. But yea these headphones are superb!!

Could someone help me with headphones? My sister offered to give me a Cystereo Lava or Soundcore Life Q30. I would love to know which is the better headphones. Technically and sound. If only I could afford excellent headphones, but can't afford it. Music is my EVERYTHING. I started playing piano at age 7, later drums and vocals. I was 16 in 1973. The tunes in my car? A boom box in the back seat. I never used headphones until a few years ago. Yes, I'm an idiot. Thanks for this video and hopefully steering me in the right direction.

Did I miss the fact they review headphones but didn't compare the sound!?

[DroidLocks]

The q30 are OK. . . If you get a portable Bluetooth receiver like BTR3K YOU can Get LDAC FOR better Bluetooth sound using a 3.5 cable . I use a short 1 foot 3.5 cable for ldac listening
