There's a new successor to the Life Q35 headphones! Check out my review for the brand new SPACE Q45 headphones (with a direct comparison to the Life Q35) here 👇🏼

Watched a handful of reviews on the Life Q35s and yours was, by far, the most comprehensive. You covered things that I haven't seen anyone else really touch on like, emphasizing the fact of the insane battery life compared to competitors, as well as Soundcore's app having a music streaming community built within the app. Really nice job on the video!
Being the owner of both, as well, I think you were pretty much spot on with your assessment in comparing the two.
For me, the improvement in audio quality was immediately noticeable. Not that the Q30s are bad (far from it), but, where as, I use a custom EQ for the Q30s, I don't really feel it necessary to use EQ the Q35s. They sound pretty darn great right out of the box. I also feel the comfort has been slightly increased with the upgrade to the ear cups and the headband. I did notice a very, _very_ slight improvement in the ANC, but nothing significant, and definitely not enough of an improvement that I think many would notice. It took me quite a few times of switching the headphones back and forth to actually notice.
I've seen quite a few people knock Soundcore because of the price hike on the Q35s, but I feel that to be pretty unfair. At $80, the previous Q30s were already punching *_waayyy_* above their belt in comparison to the current market leaders. And even at $50 more the same can be said with the Q35s. For the refinement you get with the Q35s, especially in the sound, they are, imo, still well worth the price. Though, as you note in the video, the Q30s are still perhaps more deserving of the title of budget king.
All right, I guess I am also gushing about these phones, lol. Anyways, thanks again for the comprehensive video. The time you spent on it did not go unnoticed. Cheers!

Okay, I know i've pretty much been gushing over these headphones. But when you think about what's on offer here, and the fact that these are in some cases $200 cheaper than the competitors, I think these are going to be tough to beat in terms of value this year! 🔥

Woah, how are you only at 50k subs? I thought I’d stumbled onto a much larger channel. This was an awesome review! Keep it up!

[rogerbibeau]

Excellent video! I can only comment on the Soundcore Q30 though. OUTSTANDING! I'm a musician, son of a first generation audiophile, so I have a lot of experience in studios wearing headphones and I've benefitted from a lifetime listening to the best audio possible. The Q30 are absolutely one of the very best headphones I've ever used. I wear mine a minimum of 12-14 hours everyday. Comfortable, off the charts. Using mine for over six months already, I haven't even come close to either running out battery time, or even getting a 'low battery' status report/announcement when turning them on. Which is a terrific added feature. And especially since I don't charge them daily since getting them.

The N/C is super, easily blocking out every annoying ambient distraction. A super bonus is the comprehensiveness of the iPhone app. Works terrifically. With video watchers coming here for info on the Q35's (as I did) I'll just end with my highest Q30 endorsement. I don't think I need to upgrade to the Q35s right now, so I'd suggest possible purchasers taking advantage of the lower pricing for the Q30s. You won't be disappointed, I guarantee it.

Wow this was an outstanding review, the best I've watched so far for the Q35s. I was also let down by them not having aptX since my S9+ is optmized for playing music with it, but that's a minor issue. Your video also helped me distinguishing their looks clearer as I haven't noticed the matte finish on other reviews

I own a pair of Q10s and was impressed by Anker's quality on this segment. Been thinking on upgrading to either the Q30s or the Q35s for their ANC features. This comparison was very important to me and of big help, thanks a bunch!

[reetsa]

I've seen numerous reviews praising these, even tried soundcore buds from friends and what can I say I'm impressed.
got the Q30s on sale for 60€, can't wait for them to arrive, I'll be updating this comment with first thoughts and later a review

[thenumbers]

Thank you so much for the review! I purchased the Q30 around the holidays and find them, by far, the best deal in wireless ANC for the money. Your review is spot on on every point. I tried Sony's and Sennheiser's top of the line and couldn't justify the increase in costs. This has better pairing then both of them and only slightly lesser ANC. Really happy to see the improvements for the Q35, though the jump in price is a bit large and looks like a change in strategy (I think I paid around 80 for my Q30s in November). This gives me high hopes for the Q40s, which may be my next pair (I normally put in about 3000 hrs a year on cans, but 2020 and change to WFH has nearly doubled that!)

Great review, thanks for testing the Mic audio, much appreciated!

[iconicshrubbery]

I'm English, live abroad and could listen to you all day.
I like your expressiveness and paused delivery. Oh by the way, I have 2-yr old Q30s, going strong.

[Zesarlopezfrend]

The way you put the info is excelent. Thank you

[MarcosMark]

Great review... I found this headphones by accident on the internet and now I want them... was going to get the Q30 but when I saw the Q35 I changed my mind... waiting for a promo (maybe blackfriday) but will definitely get one. Thanks for the review... there's not much difference between both of them but I'll probably go for the Q35 if the price drops anytime soon.

[snitchphead]

what an amazing review, I really needed it, thank you sooo much!!

[EthanBailey]

That was more in depth than I was expecting. You gave me details that I need to know and not just specs, like the fact that you'll actually need some battery power to use the inline mic. Great review dude 👍🏽🙌🏽

[johnrembo]

Definitely a great review! Thank you for the detailed comparison, appreciate it 👍🏻

[certifiedfishingcycling]

Everybody said what i came here to write so keep up the wonderful reviews. You sir are top notch!👌

[justathought]

Going for Q35! Thanks for the great review - detailed and well structured.

[RafalBorowski]

I was struggling with 30s vs 35s but out of nowhere when searching for both I stumbled upon Q35 for $85 - new, sealed box, from shop exposition - so I just went with it.

[lynxxlynxx]

I watched your review among some others yesterday and I decided to go with the Q30.
Since my phone doesn't support LDAC, the pros of the Q35 stop there for me.
Q30 has a tougher carrying bag and the pure plastic finish is a big pro for me. I like the looks of pure ABS after years of use.
And as nice as the Q35 look with their matte texture when they're new, every device I have that has this finish starts to get sticky after 2 years of use, when the silky finish decays.
Also, the Q30s have a seamless padding.
And with 57€ for the Q30 vs 139€ for the Q35, the Q30s were a no brainer for me.

Great review! I will likely be buying the Q35s as a replacement for my broken Q30s
