by Anker Space A40 Adaptive Active Noise Cancelling Wireless Earbuds, Reduce Noise By Up to 98%, 50H Total/10H Single Playtime, Hi-Res Sound, Comfortable Fit, Wireless Charge

Absolutely love these earbuds, compared to my AirPod 4s I would actually say that these have superior sound quality and noise cancellation! Has a clear, crisp sound with deep bass. It fits really well in my ear and don't fall out, and don't cause painful spots in my ears unlike other in-ear buds. Connects to my iPhone quickly. Has fast charging and lasts for days, listening to around 2 hours a day. Great value for money and a much better alternative to other more expensive earbud brands.

These earbuds for the price are amazing value. They offer an excellent audio experience with sound quality, active noise cancellation that dulls out ambient noise and handy gesture controls. When combined with the app you can adjust the anc to low medium strong level or leave on adaptive which uses ambient noise to judge the level you need. From my experience this isn’t the best so I chose a preset to my preference. You have a customisable EQ for your audio tastes, hear ID is a test range for your hearing that tailors music to your ears or default. So quite a bit for your money already. There is also white noise and brainwave options in the app for background sounds and a limited customisation option. Standard 10m distance for connectivity with Bluetooth but can connect with at least devices (I have tested). You turn music on your phone and play on your laptop and bit of delay but no need to turn off one and connect to the other. App also has translation features which I haven’t tested yet. They are very comfy for me which is personal preference but comes with adjustable ear pieces. Comes in white dark navy and black. The case is small and holds decent charge got like four charges on one charge and I use them for five hours. The handiest feature is custom gesture controls. So if your one earbud person you can set the gestures you want for each. Mirror left and right or give separate options. Each earbud has 3 gestures you can assign. Tap double tap and hold for 2second. Everything from play, skip, volume, change anc. Dropped a few times and still works only downside is the case opens to easily and earbuds bounce out. A better catch could work well but a trade off for price I’m happy with. Really recommend these and I’ll be getting another set.

These noise-cancelling earbuds are a solid 4 out of 5 stars for everyday use, offering a great combination of convenience and performance at this price point. The Good Stuff I was immediately impressed by the nice compact design of both the earbuds and the charging case; they slip into a pocket easily. The battery life is excellent, easily getting me through a long workday without needing a top-up. Pairing them with my Android phone was super easy and quick—a few taps and I was connected. Plus, the selection of different ear bud sizes included in the box made it simple to find a comfortable and secure fit, which is crucial for any earbud. Where They Could Improve The main area for improvement is the noise cancelling, which is decent but not exceptional, particularly when dealing with traffic noise. When walking by a road, the noise cancelling struggles a bit, letting more low-frequency sound bleed through than I'd like. The biggest drawback, however, is the wind noise: a slight breeze creates a noticeably loud rustling sound in the mic, making it disruptive when taking calls or even just listening to music outdoors. Final Verdict Overall, if you're looking for a pair of earbuds with excellent battery life, a comfortable fit, and a compact design for use in quieter environments like an office or on a plane, these are a fantastic option. However, if your primary use is walking or running in windy, urban environments, the noise cancelling limitations might be a minor frustration. They're a great value and a genuinely good set of earbuds.

These are great wireless earbuds that I use daily and are essential for my motivation to get me through training even when you don't feel like it. Connectivity is good at around 20ft so you can use round most houses without carryng a device as well. These were very easy to pair with a simple hold of the button on the case, and once paired will automatically connect if Bluetooth is switched on your phone. The battery lasts a fair while so ideal for everyday use and the case recharges the buds all week during my usage. I really like the sound quality and there are a multitude of options to suite everyone's ear and music genre. There are options for noise filtering which is configurable, such as pass through so you can listen to music and hear your surroundings. The app is slick and has lots of additional options which are intuitive including exqaliser options and pre set sound, plus other handy features like locate device. You can also configure various response options for these buds to manually change tracks alter volume and other shortcuts. The buds come with several pairs of earpiece inserts to tailer for different fittings. Lastly the support from soundcore is first class if there are any issues they are prompt and if troubleshooting is exhausted in my case they replaced the buds. Very please with my purchase and the price for what you get is very reasonable but functionality compared to more expensive buds is comparable. There are other types of buds model reviewed Space A40

Had the soundcore a10s previously and put them through a washing cycle and ruined them. These are a huge upgrade, the noise cancelling is new to me, it's something to behold when you first experience it as you hear nothing, the hoover, washer etc all silent. Wireless charging is a must these days and these charge perfect in my phone and earphone Wireless stand. Music quality is top notch with incredible bass, clarity and richness. No stuttering or wobble at max volume either. For £50 (July 10th) they feel very impressive, I believe they were £100 at time of release and you can tell they are premium. Can't find anything to fault, a must buy.

These are almost great earbuds, but with a few flaws that keep them from being a strong recommendation. First, the positives: The sound is outstanding, with clear highs and mids, and solid but not overwhelming bass. The fit is great: they're lightweight and comfortable. And the noise cancelling is solid, although not quite as good as more expensive models. For their price, the quality in these areas is strong. Now the not-so-good. Bluetooth connectivity is subpar. I usually listen while I'm walking, and I keep my phone in my pocket, so there's no great distance to cover. Sometimes it's fine, but other times it loses connection multiple times. I've reset the buds, but no luck: the connection simply isn't what it should be. The microphones are no better. It's gotten to the point where I will disconnect the buds when I'm making or receiving a call, simply because I'm tired of being told the sound quality is bad. While this may be a phone issue, I haven't had the same problem with other earbuds or other soundcore products, so I'm forced to believe it's a problem with these buds. Okay, this is going to sound weird, but something about the case is oddly slippery. I usually keep my earbuds case in a front pocket, and while it's not that unusual for a case to slip out from time to time, this case sets the record. Simply stated, if I'm sitting down or standing up from sitting, they fall out more often than not. And as if that wasn't annoying enough, the case opens far too easily, and the magnets holding the buds in the case are quite weak. In other words, if they fall out of my pocket, the case usually opens, and the earbuds fall out. At first I thought it was me, but the more time has passed, the more I'm convinced that it's the design of the case. In fact, I'm writing this review having lost the earbuds—I literally decided to take a break from crawling around my house looking for them to write this review. This isn't my first pair of earbuds, and I've never had this problem, so do with that what you will. So, if you're going for sound and don't mind the occasional lost conection, these are a solid choice and a good value. If you're going for comfort and noise cancelling, you're in look. But if you want a consistent connection and the ability to make phone calls, and if you'd rather not get down on your hands and knees every time the case works its way out of your pocket, I'd suggest looking elsewhere. EDIT: Okay, I was in a pretty bad mood when I wrote this review. I tried to be fair, but I was frustrated. I've since been in touch with the company about the issues I mentioned here, and they've been very quick to respond with suggestions. First, the case: They suggested keeping the buds in a more secure location and perhaps getting a case for the case. That seems like overkill, but I've since ordered a protective case for the case—and yes, I've found the earbuds—so we'll see if this makes any difference. Regarding the other issues, I haven't made any phone calls since finding the earbuds, so I can't speak to any improvement in that area. At their suggestion, I've reset the unit (again) to see if it resolves the Bluetooth connectivity problems. So far, there does seem to be some improvement, although the connection still did cut out once or twice. It's possible that this is a problem with my phone, but I've never had these types of issues with other Bluetooth devices (including other soundcore headphones), so I doubt it. So, while my review stands, I would add an extra half-star if I could, in part because of the speed and quality of customer service, and in part because of the quality of the sound, which I may have given short shrift the first time round. Honestly, these are terrific-sounding earbuds—rich and detailed without being boomy or harsh. I just wish certain details of them worked a little better.

MUCH BETTER THAN THEY HAVE RIGHT TO BE! £45, that's what I paid for them 7 November 2025. Next to them, I have a pair of Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 earphones that cost £349. They sound the same, which is absolutely great. But consider their price - £45!! The noise cancellation got a great workout tonight on the train with crying babies, train noise etc - absolutely great. The sound quality is great. But here is where it gets interesting; The Soundcore Space A40 just WORK. Dual device connection, and if I'm watching on the TV, it is also connected to my phone. If I send messages on my phone, the earphones just prioritise the TV. Whereas my expensive B&W drop the TV sound for a brief moment to try play the send message tune. The Soundcore has a very advanced EQ range of settings. You can turn off touch control buttons to name a few. The ear bud tips come in a variety of sizes, making for a comfortable fit - even while you're sleeping on your side on them! To be clear; I bought a set of earbuds for 7x the price of these Soundcore Space A40 and the Soundcore is absolutely better value for money. It has a great deal more functionality than the others and the design looks and feels premium. This is my 5th set of Soundcore ear/head phones (others I lost or stepped on). I doubt I'll buy anything other than Soundcore from now on

May 2015. Had them for 5months and now the full charge lasts less than 4hrs. Absolute rubbish. Just keeps getting worse… now the double tap doesn’t work, another star taken off. These earphones are rubbish. Month Update: Ok, I’ve been wearing these for a month now and feel now I’d the time to give my final update on these earphones and tbh I’m liking them less and less than when I first had them. The issues I’ve found are they are just not as comfortable to have in your ears for extended periods of time Day after day after day. You are constantly readjusting them to stay in your ears because they only have the ear canal tip and not a rubber fin on top of them to mould inside your ear, they move all of the time and want to come out. The ear pieces are obviously weighty because of the batteries and electronics in them and this weight slowly pulls them out of position. Next issue is the touch button, every time you touch them to readjust them to go back in your ear it alters the volume and that’s just playing annoying. It’s also hard to locate the precise place to double tap them when you actually want to as apose to a physical push button and lastly as I mentioned in the original update the ANC is pretty useless. I have actually been using my older Life A1 ones inbetween charging these and the fit compared to these is absolutely loads better. Not sure if I’d pay for these ones again because of those three main issues for finding like me who wears them literally every waking second of each day. So I’ve dropped stars again for these issues based on a month of every day wearing. Little Update: After wearing these continuously for about a week, I have noticed that compared to the SC Life A1 the Bluetooth range isn’t as long when connected to my iPod touch and also noticed that the ANC isn’t really that affective tbh, so it looses a star for those issues. Out of the 2 settings, “Transparency Mode” I’ve no idea why anyone would want to use this setting to actually hear more, which it does enable you to, It’s like it focusses in on distant noises like the kitchen extractor fan or the dehumidifier fan going. Whilst on the flip side, the actual “Noise Cancelling” option does dull the sound say of the TV heard over the film you’re watching on your device through your earphones, but doesn’t eliminate it, it’s still audible, so just be aware of that if you’re purchasing those soley based on their ANC capabilities, they’re not that good in that respect. Also the IPX waterproof rating on the Life A1 is ipx 7 compared to these A40 which is only ipx 4 rated by Soundcore. One more thing is that the touch buttons are no where near as responsive as an actual push buttons as in the older model LIfe A1’s. So it looses another star for that too. *************** Original Review: I’m going to compare these with the Soundcore Life Wireless A1 earphones because I’ve owned about 6 pairs of them over the past couple of years and they were the best earphones I’d found so far out of the reasonably priced Soundcore bunch. They had amazing bass, the three button tap to change from bass to two other settings was really good, they were comfy to wear the entire day, waterproof even in the shower and the battery life was good. You knew when they were low on charge because a red light came on and when they were in the charging container, you could see the lights on when. It was charging and knew when you had to re-charge the box as the lights went down and started to flash. The main problems with the Life A1 is that the circular rubber cover that is over the ear press button comes away from the unit causing the components to be exposed and then moisture gets in and thats the end of that. They also have a silicone earpiece which constantly comes out of position from where it should go, causing you to re-adjust constantly throughout the day. This also caused the earphones to be a pain going back into the charging container because sometimes the silicone had moved preventing the connections to align and for it to charge properly. Soundcore recently decided to change the Life A1 with a newer model which allowed it to be operated via an app, they did away with the three button press to get the equaliser deeper bass setting and the sound was not as good as the earlier Life A1 model. If you buy them now, they will all be the newer model just called A1 and compared to the old, they’re not worth it. So well done Soundcore, you spoiled them. Now compared to the Soundcore Space A40 which I’ve recently purchased because I was sick of the newer A1 models sound and lack of functions, Ive got to say that so far i’m pleasantly surprised. First thing you notice is that there are no inner ear silicone fins to perfectly fit your upper ear, they just have the different sized plugs so it sits looser in your ear. But because of this, they go straight back into their charging box and connect straight via the magnet to the correct position to charge. It relies soly on the app which you are allowed to customise the touch button press, but sometimes is hard to just press it and it doesn’t always register the press, which is annoying, but saying that, there doesn’t appear to be that circle of rubber covering the button which comes apart from the A1 model. There are no lights on the A40 earphones so you don’t know they’re actually on unlike the A1. Also noticed when they are in their charging box, there are no pulsating lights on the box to show they are charging either. Ive got to mention that Soundcore claim that when the earphones have run out of charge, by putting them into the recharging box just for 10 minutes will give them 40% charge. I tried this and timed the 10 minutes and reconnected them for them to show exactly 40% charge, so that was awesome. The sound of the A40 is really good, the bass is I’ve got to say better than the A1 and the active noise cancelling mode is really good. You can change the settings of the ANC in the app, theres a transparency mode which I’ve no idea why you’d want to use this and a full ANC mode which does actively dowse the noise around you, this feature wasn’t on the A1 and tbh I like it, yes it drains the battery faster, they reckon 8hrs instead of 10 before you need to recharge them but we’ll see later on. The earphones themselves are comfy, I’ve had them in all day and gone for walks etc in them and they stay in, the ANC can be turned off and on via the 2 second long touch option which you can disable if you want to. You can also customise the one touch for volume and two touch for play/pause and a few other settings. Again, sometimes it’s hard to lightly touch the earphones twice top change the setting compared to a solid button press as with the earlier model A1. So far they’re good, they are more expensive than the A1, but like I said they’ve ruined them with the upgrade and I’ll never go back to them. The sound quality of the A40 is really good as previously mentioned and when watching a movie, the sound effects are bassy and loud which I love compared to the newer model of the A1. The no charging lights does concern me as i don’t know if they are charging, but so far they have been, but it’s nice to have a visual aid to verify this. You can also add a widget to (I’m using an iPod touch and iPhone) add the earphones to so that by swiping the widget screen on you can control the ANC setting and also see how much charge is left on the earphones, which is useful. One more thing with Soundcore, I did order a set of Life A1 from their website, they advertised them as the older Life A1 model with three button press etc, however they sent the newer model which they falsely advertised and I didn’t want so I took advantage of their “hassle free returns” which turned out to be a total nightmare. Had to email them through their site about 5 times, force them to pay for the return postage because they’d sent out the wrong product and they wanted me to pay for returns, physically called them on the phone once and used their online live chat twice escalating it to a complaint the third time, then back and forth with a team leader a few times in order to resolve the issue. I for one will never buy anything direct from their website again so thank you Amazon, your returns procedure is flawless and you have my business for life, which is why I purchased these new pair of A40 from Amazon and not the Soundcore website direct. One thing about making earphones that relies purely on apps to work and to modify them is not everything has an app. I can connect my earphones through Bluetooth to my tv, this I cant put the Soundcore app on to change it’s settings, the radio is another i can connect to but can’t put an app on to modify and also Amazons Alexa, there is no option to put a Soundcore app on it to modify the earphones on that either. So regarding a 50 hr battery length claim, I fully charged the earphones on delivery via the cable, then wore for 8hrs with ANC on, waited till ran it and turned off, did a timed quick 10 min charge (put in exactly 40% of charge) lasted 4 hrs, another timed 10 min charge (again gave it 40% charge) and on for 3 hrs before putting away for the night. After a full charge wore for 11 hrs then a timed 10 min charge (went to 50%), wore for 1 1/2 hrs then put away for the night. Next day from a full charge lasted 10 hrs, in case (case lights showing 2 lights) for timed 10 mins (50% charge) lights went down to 1, wore for 4 1/2 hrs, back in case overnight. On for 9 1/2 hrs, in charging case for timed 10 mins giving 20% charge then wore for about an hour before finally running out of charge, so all in all about 52 hrs before needing to charge the case again…. Prettttttty good. Got to tell you this too, with all my wireless earphones, I tend to take out an ear when i need to listen to something quick and put it down somewhere and then spend ages trying to find it again. Ive found out with the Soundcore Space 40, if you leave the earplug, go into the app and into its settings and there is an option to locate your earphone ?!?!?!?!, you select which one you are trying to find and then press the play button for it and it sends out an audible tone so you can locate it ?????? I know right, amazing. Used it three times so far as that’s how often I loose them, tone goes and you just walk round listening for it until you find it :-) Definitly recomend these and definitely going to get another pair.

Editing my previous review, I bought this in november 2023, and loved the sound, but the batery seemed less, but i loved the sound so much tht i didnt return. After 3 month i posted a review, saying lovely sound but battery is less. I was contacted by seller saying we r sorry, and we would like to make it up to u, and we offer a ful refund. I responded tht i would prefer if u send me a new one if battery is more, they accepted immediately. I reutned the old unit without any shipping charges and a new space a40 reached me within 2 days. And i love not only love the sound, but the app customization options, now the battery is also more than +7 hrs continuous music, and charging speed is also fast. I compared these with soundpeats free 2 classic, soundpeats mini, soundpeats mini pro, soundpeats engine 4, jabra elite 7 pro, one plus evo, (yes i love collecting n enjoying alot of these.) and i can confidently say i can rank it almost at the top, in terms of sound and battery life. The best part is sellers concern, responsiveness and their confidence in their product and going out of the way to resolve a customer issue and thus winning respect and a returning customer. This was my first experience with soundcore but i m impressed n wil definitely buy again n recomend to everyone. Highly recomended

I lost my AirPods and wanted to buy a replacement without spending too much. Read glowing reviews online and went ahead and bought on Amazon.SG. Delivery was very quick, setting up was easy and works as promised. Noise cancellation is reasonably good too.

Great audio for the price, noise cancellation works great in the office.

Suite à la perte d'un des écouteurs de mon Jabra Elite 75T, je n'avais pas le budget pour en racheter un autre et je me suis donc tourné vers celui-ci (Space A40) , bien moins onéreux (promo à 72€). Honnêtement, c'est un excellent produit pour son prix : + Son riche et puissant (avec égaliseur dans l'appli et détection de votre plage de fréquences audibles) + Bonne isolation, aussi bien passive qu'active (modes transparent, naturel et isolation) + On peut n'utiliser qu'un seul écouteur à la fois (bien en voiture ou pour le sport) + Permet d'être associé à 2 émetteurs bluetooth différents (ex: PC + smartphone). Celui actif est le premier en date à emettre du son et il commutte automatiquement sur l'autre si 1 des 2 n'envoie plus de signal. + Lattence acceptable (jeux comme Forza Horizon 5) + Aucune deconnexion bluetooth "sauvage" subie après 2 semaines d'utilisations quotidiennes (3h++ mini/jour) + Tient bien dans les oreilles et reste supportable dans le temps (5 tailles d'embouts) + Relativement discret + Le boitier peut se recharger en le posant sur un socle de "charge sans fil" (celui de ma montre Xiaomi Watch S2) +- Qualité de l'appel tel. acceptable de mon côté comme depuis celui de mon interlocuteur +- Charge des écouteurs rapide et autonomie donnée pour 10h... suivant le mode d'isolation sélectionné (dans la réalité, de 5 à 9h validées). Cependant, c'est pareil chez les concurrents et bien pire avant sur mon Jabra). Dans ma pratique, il tient vraiment bien la charge et le 2ème ecouteur peut arriver à la rescousse... - Les changements de modes ne sont validés que par des "bips" et non pas par des messages audios Au final, je ne regrette pas mon achat !

Goed en ruimtelijk geluid. Intuïtieve bediening. Noise cancellation kan beter, maar is voor mij niet zo belangrijk. Helaas alleen koppelbaar maar met 1 apparaat tegelijkertijd. Geweldige prijs/kwaliteit verhouding.
