Short review: One of the best Value For Money headsets in this price range (I bought them for 90€)!
IMPORTANT: Read the update at the end.

As for the Noise Cancelling, it is very good and has nothing to envy from more expensive headsets. It has 3 modes: Indoor, Outdoor, and Transport, and there is indeed a difference in the frequencies they cut off. Unfortunately, the mode cannot be changed with buttons on the headset but only through the app.

Regarding the battery, I have nothing to say, it really lasts incredibly long!

As for the sound quality, it is very good and one can use the app to choose either custom or preloaded Equalizer presets from Anker. I would recommend it, especially if you listen to a lot of music and podcasts.

In general, the positives are as follows:
- They come with a case!
- They are very comfortable on the head even after 4-5 hours of use. The ear cushions are memory foam and fit perfectly on the head.
- They have a very high-quality construction, and the headband is even made of iron. (UPDATE: see at the end)
- The buttons are split between both ear cups and are generally user-friendly. In the right ear cup, there is pause, previous, next (and audio jack), while in the left ear cup, there is on/off and Noise Cancelling (and charging port).
- They are type-C and charge incredibly fast. With a 10-minute charge, they play for about 3 hours.
- They have Transparency/Normal/Noise Cancelling mode and can be changed by a button on the left ear cup.
- If you cover the right ear cup with your hand, the Transparency Mode is activated (and deactivated), with which you can hear the sounds around you clearly without needing to take off the headphones. In contrast to other headsets, the "enhanced" sound of transparency sounds natural and without any noise.
- They can connect to 2 devices simultaneously and very easily.
- They play with both Bluetooth and Audio Jack.

Compared to the JBL TUNE 750BTNC I had before, it's like going up 5 categories, in terms of battery, sound, NC, etc. They are in the same price range and it's definitely not worth going for JBL.

Negatives:
- Sometimes when playing at low volume and in a relatively quiet room, a steady white noise can be heard, but you don't always notice it.
- You need to use the app because the flat factory sound profile is not the best, so this adds a little extra searching until you find the right sound profile for you.

I highly recommend them!

UPDATE-1: A few months later, after turning the headband back and forth, some plastic parts cracked and now pieces are constantly breaking off from the left and right.

UPDATE-2: I found them for 50€ on Black Friday and bought them again. They came with a newer firmware and a slightly different case (more rounded).

UPDATE-3: Because the fabric on the ear cushions, as expected, wore out, I bought external replacement ear cushions and they are like new!

The headphones are amazing.
They have an incredible sound.
When you wear them, they perfectly isolate the sound while allowing you to choose whether the external sound reaches you or not.
The mobile application is great, although I don't use it much.
They connect instantly to the computer or mobile and never lose connection.
The battery lasts for many days. Personally, I use them for 2-4 hours of teleconferencing per day, maybe even less.
The sound is enhanced when watching videos or listening to music. You really understand what you bought.
They come with a decent case.
On the downside, they are relatively heavy. I don't know if I could wear them continuously for many hours. And there comes the second disadvantage, which is perhaps more significant. After a while, they cause sweating. It's minimal, but it happens.
Anyway, my rating remains at 4 stars because they are truly exceptional headphones for 2-3 hours of daily use and they isolate external sounds extremely well.

Update 21/06/23: Unfortunately, to my great disappointment, I will have to change my initial evaluation completely because although the headphones are excellent in terms of sound quality, the build quality is terrible. With minimal daily use in an office, always kept in their case, without any drops or excessive movements, the right arm broke without any logical explanation!
Obviously, no matter how good the headphones are in terms of sound quality, it makes no sense if they are going to fall apart in a few months. Especially at a cost that can't be considered entry-level.
I will make an attempt to see if the warranty covers me, but as many of you already know, it's hard to prove that I'm not an elephant or that I didn't play polo with them! What a shame...

  The arm broke near the earphone after a few months of very light and careful use. Good sound and noise cancelling but obviously poor quality plastics. I wouldn't buy again. Obviously at this price, you take your risk. I glued it. The store denies that it is under warranty (zapstar).

  Everything is excellent except for the cushions that will wear out after a lot of use. The replacements from the company were not easy to find or were not cheap (I don't remember, it's been a while). I had to get Chinese ones that took a month to arrive... pirates blocked their way

  Let's talk about:
  Powerful sound
  Incredible bass
  Real ANC
  Very good app
  Nice build
  Instant connection with any device I've tested, even with the turntable

  On the downside, as others have mentioned, after a while of use you "feel" them on your head

  Overall, I recommend them

  I have been using the device for over 7 months and I am quite satisfied with its performance and sound quality. Its strongest point is the extremely effective noise cancelling. At first, I was hesitant to buy it due to the negative reviews I read about the build quality, but so far it has not disappointed me.

  These headphones are definitely VFM. Easy to handle, quite good bass, excellent noise cancelling. I'm not sure about the build quality, I don't know how long they will last. Their "headband" doesn't seem very durable to me.

  The sound is incredible, very clear, very good bass, and amazing noise canceling. However, the build quality for such a price is unacceptable. The headband broke after 8 months of use, which I fixed with a workaround, and now after a year and a half, the ear pads have almost completely worn out.

  I have been using it for a month now. A more realistic rating would be 3.5 stars.
  On the positive side, it has very good sound quality and the battery lasts quite a while. It also has a very simple app that can improve the sound through the equalizer.
  On the negative side, I will focus more on the fact that I find it heavy on my head. My ears easily sweat, especially on hot days, and it is not very stable on my head, mainly in sports conditions (gym, running, etc.).
  The noise cancellation is satisfactory, while the transparency mode is inadequate.

  Sunt primele căști pe care le cumpăr și care costă peste 40 de euro. In general cam atât au costat cele pe care le-am avut anterior.

  Pentru mine, personal, sunt excepționale, asta și poate pentru că nu am experimentat unele mai scumpe decat acestea sau de o calitate mai bună.

  Nu știam că muzica poate suna atât de bine.

  Părerea mea este că se merită să le cumperi.

  While they have very good sound quality, they are of poor quality and defective as other disappointed users have written. The earpads opened up for me with occasional and minimal use and always transported in their case, after a year. Obviously, there is a problem with their seams.

  As I was informed, the warranty does not cover their replacement. If I had known that they have such a lifespan, I definitely would not have bought them.

  I liked them and I still like them. After almost 1 year, with use for work more, music in the office or on the road. Incredible. The ear pads still haven't worn out, the case helps a lot. The charging cables and jack in their own little bag, premium look very positive. Fast charging for 90%, battery still lasts, for example, constantly on with 16 hours of remote work and the remaining hours idle for about 2 days. I recommended them to a friend and he was completely satisfied. Very good purchase.

  Everything is top-notch, build quality, sound, noise cancelling. Perhaps the only downside is that if you wear them at the gym/run, the ear cushions wear out, but I don't know if there are headphones where this doesn't happen.

  After using it for 3.5 years, I will submit the following:
  As many others have mentioned:
  1. Excellent noise cancelling and transparency,
  2. You forget to charge the battery. Extended battery life.
  3. Nice feeling on the headphones from the cushions, they are not tiring, but poor quality because they came off for me (that's why they lose 1 star).
  4. Details in the bass and treble sounds.
  Something that was not mentioned much:
  5. Amazing connectivity via bluetooth. The connecting device can be on the other side of the house, with 3-4 walls in between, and the connection is made instantly, without interference.

  5 for what you pay.

  I haven't been a DJ or a sound engineer. The sound satisfies me.

  It has very good noise cancellation (I can easily listen to music on the metro) and on Alexandras Avenue, you can barely hear the cars.

  Because they cover the entire ear, they are super comfortable.

  They are so good that they were stolen from me in Exarcheia a few months ago.... :/

  This is actually the first review I am doing and I will mention both positive and negative aspects.

  Positive:
  First time experiencing such powerful sound in headphones, to the point of giving you goosebumps, especially from the bass.
  Crystal clear sound.
  Lightweight.
  Long hours of usage, up to 40 to 60 hours on a full charge.
  The bass is literally godlike.
  Very soft and comfortable.

  Negative:
  To hear them loudly, simply download the soundcore app, otherwise you might get disappointed like I did at first.

  I am afraid they might break due to their lightweight, but I don't think so, I just mentioned it.
  These are the general points

  After an extensive adventure in the world of headphones, from the simple Turbo-X to the highly anticipated Sony XM5, I found an intermediate stop that excited me: the Anker Soundcore Q30. My relationship with these headphones began when I found them at an incredible offer. For only 55€, I got my hands on a pair of headphones that made me rethink my music habits. From the first moment, the comfort, sound quality, and noise cancellation sensation were unexpectedly excellent.

  However, not everything is rosy. If there was an issue that made me wonder about their durability, it was the resistance of the plastic parts. After using them for just over two years - a period during which I had already incorporated the Sony into my daily life - they began to show the first signs of wear. The plastic arm that holds the headphone broke. Nevertheless, I did not let this obstacle discourage me.

  The solution came with a simple but extremely effective method: instant glue and baking soda. This magical combination not only fixed the problem but made the connection even more durable than before. Also, by adding a cheap cover for the earpads, I managed to maintain their aesthetics and the comfort they offer.

  Positives (+) of the Q30:
  - Value for Money: Incredible value compared to the price. The Q30 offer very good sound quality and noise cancellation at a significantly lower cost compared to Sony.
  - Battery Life: It is impressive and exceeds expectations for their price category.
  - Comfort: They provide comfort for extended use, which is important for all users.
  - Connectivity and Range: Simultaneous connection to two devices and excellent range are two of their strong points.

  Negatives (-) of the Q30:
  - Material Durability: The plastic parts and earpads are not as durable compared to other headphones, and this is probably due to their low price.
  - Microphone Quality: Although good, it could have better noise cancellation for phone calls.

  Comparison with Sony XM5:
  While the Sony XM5 stands out for superior sound quality and advanced noise cancellation technology, the Q30 offer an extremely competitive experience at a fraction of the cost. The price difference is significant, and for many users, the Q30 are a practical choice that satisfies most listening needs without having to spend a fortune.

  In summary, my experience with the Anker Soundcore Q30 has proven that they offer excellent value for the money they cost, despite the minor challenges in material durability. They are an affordable way to enjoy quality sound and noise cancellation, especially if you are not ready to invest in more expensive models like the Sony XM5.

  Although they may seem ideal at first glance, their build quality can be described as mediocre to poor. The left side, without any particular pressure, cracked the plastic. The sound may be good, but for headphones that cost 80 euros, it is ridiculous for them to break like that.

  I bought my own pair last year in late May from Stechi in Ilioupoli. Unfortunately, the seams on the headphones broke just like it appears in the photo after only 6 months of moderate use. I called the store where they informed me that the warranty only covers components, so I was left with broken headphones that I never even managed to use with my office computer. Very poor construction quality and overall bad experience.

  They have amazing sound quality!!! The noise cancellation is FANTASTIC! They are easy to manage! The ability to connect multiple devices is very useful! As for the price, it's truly value for money! The only thing I have a slight doubt about, but this will become apparent with use, is the quality of the plastic construction. They are lightweight and comfortable, but they don't give you a sense of sturdiness. However, with a little care, I don't think it's an issue!

  In their price range, unbeatable. Three modes, Transparency (if you want to hear what whispers in the other room about you), Normal (the best), and Noise Cancelling (the best in its category, to find better you have to spend a lot more money). I've had them for two years now, due to intense use I changed the ear cushions a few days ago, the change was very easy. The battery lasts forever, you forget to charge them. If you are an Audiophile, you should go for the 300+ euro category (Bose Quiet Comfort or even better Sony WH-1000XM5), but in terms of their price and value for money, they have no competition. Get them without hesitation.

  I have had these headphones for 4 years and they have served me extremely well. They have a nice bass, a battery that lasts 2 days and can last even longer, and of course, the sound isolation is great. However, my own pair has broken because I wear them a lot, even while sleeping, so I will definitely buy them again 10000%

  I have no opinion to compare them with similar ones that cost 300+ euros, but the active noise canceling they offer seems incredibly good to me! One positive aspect is that through the application, you can create your own EQ settings, in addition to the default ones. As for the build quality, they seem good to me, I believe they will withstand. If anything comes up, I will come back.

  Although the headphones are very good in terms of sound and isolation, unfortunately, due to a manufacturing error (search for it on the internet), the headphones break in two places after simple use. I have read that later generations of them did not have the same issue, so I fell into the bad...

  The headphones are very nice with a very nice sound and very nice bass.
  A very big BUT is that the leather quality ripped the same day I got them and they rip more, so I have to sew it. They could have been cheaper, but due to the noise cancellation, it is understandable.
  I am very satisfied with this company because I have bought other products from them.
  If you have never bought a headset before and you are used to lice, they might tire you.
  As for the noise cancellation, it is satisfactory for the money.

  I have had these headphones for 20 months (dark blue color).
  In detail:
  Build quality 9/10
  Very good construction with one drawback: with careful use, after 2 months, the mechanism that holds the folding of the headphone broke, causing it to move uncontrollably. It was fixed with adhesive tape and now it is permanently open.
  The ear cushions are still very high quality, like new.
  Comfort: 8/10
  The headphones cover the ear quite well, slightly annoying on the left side.
  In the summer, the ears sweat easily. They are quite heavy, but you get used to them after a while.
  Sound quality.
  Bluetooth 9/10:
  Sound without peaks, they play loudly. Even at high volumes, they have good sound quality and low distortion. The bass is strong, good mids and highs, natural without being bothersome.
  Download the SOUNDCORE app to customize it to your liking.
  The noise cancellation covers most noises very well.
  Sound with 3.5mm cable 9/10:
  They play even louder with a wider range of frequencies. It needs customization to avoid distortion from the bass and to adjust the highs.
  The headphones play LOUD!

  Important: when listening to loud music, the sound does not pass to the environment.
  Overall, the headphones are very good, I give them 9/10.
  I would buy them again.
  The headphones are not flat.
  They are not suitable for studio use.
  They have strong bass, ideal for music and movie watching.
