Simply the best review, man. Congrats for the effort. I'm buying the Q20. I'll keep looking for your next phone reviews as main reference. Keep up the good work.
wow, this is a perfect review - ALMOST!!! 😍 - Juts one thing - PLEASE, can you also do mic test WITH background noises like "Sink running water", and "Tapping cup or sink or bnech" - things people do when they talk to you with headphones on - which my BOSE QC35ii are horrible at but dont want the n700's - but seriously, wish you had a million views, great review!!!!!
I like how you structure your video. Great work. I notice that when you talk and also on mic tests the audio volume is lower compared with other video or with the part where you play music.
Thanks for watching! Here is why: 1. The mic audio was recorded on iPhone 11 Voice Memo app, synced up with video without any editing. 2. My voice at the end of this video was shot on iPhone 11. 3. The rest of the audio was straight from the Sony D10 recorder without any editing, not even changing the volume, which was set by the gain dial of on the recorder .
After tried Q20 for 2 weeks and Bose Quiet comfortable 35ii, I've decided to keep the Bose. (spoiled lol) It is much more comfortable. I might get the Anker Q30 for my parent or use as back up. Q20 in the meantime, it's hard to beat for the quality and the price. Keep up the great work sir.
@@hughshux7960 Q20 and Q30 feel identical, I wear them for 2 hours no problem. I never had the chance to wear them for longer than that. Usually I will take a break every hour.
@@hughshux7960 Very comfortable (8/10). I wore them for 7 hours a day minimum and doesn't feel much fatigue, if longer, you will feel it, even with my Bose. For $40 dollars, it is definitely a steal. It doesn't feel cheap at all. The bass is rumbling, stronger than my Bose QC35ii. TBH, it blew my Powerbeats pro out of the roof, even with, or without the ANC. Maybe I shouldn't compare a pair of over the headphone to an earbud. At this time of the year, perhaps I'll wait for black Friday.
Thank you very much for the review, I bought the q30 and I'm looking forward to delivering it, I hope I didn't make the wrong choice, thanks again + 1subscriber
This is just awesome! Theres no other channel with this quality! Hey, buddy, could you make a more detailed ANC test of Q20 vs Q30 eventually? Testing 85 db, 100 db etc. Anker says Q30 is 5% better than Q20.
Great review. Is it possible that you have some leakage through gaps between microphones and the side board or from the back of the microphones? Perhaps the right side leakage is more than the left so you have consistently more attenuation on the left than the right, in all tests. I think your ANC test recording is a bit less dramatic than in my real-life experience.
I disagree. The Q30. Is a worthwhile upgrade over the Q20 with better sound, fit, EQ and comes with a USB-C port. Now the Mic on the Q30 sounds like your in a box. Hopefully a software update will fix this.
@@lamarsmith5310 listening to the video i didnt tell much sound difference, he even said it. fit is very relative, and eq i could do that with my music player, and usbc port isnt my worry ive lived with iphone Lightning ports and it didn't bother me. bad audio is a big deal and also he said the q20 has cracking noise im waiting for a video hes referring to confirm that.
@@ToolsElectroDIY thanks a lot.. ordered them, but at a friends address. Didnt get to listen to them yet, but sont know why he said that the loudness is quite low..really confused at the return period will be over in 2 days.
@@ToolsElectroDIY Hello, I'm using a Sony MDR-ZX110 now that has 98db of sensitivity and the sound is low imo,. now I want to get the Q20 but Soundcore headphones have a volume cap of 95db and I'm afraid that these would has low volume too, what do you think?.
I just got the Q30 headphones so I haven't really had the time or opportunity to try them out properly but so for I have mixed feelings about them. The audio quality seems ok, though VERY bass heavy. I have to turn down the bass and raise the highs quite a lot in the EQ to "open" them up. The NC is also strange.. When turned on and set to "Transport" it filters out an ok amout of external noise (tried at home with my kid playing Lego games and talking very loudly. A good enviroment to test them out :D) but it also changes the EQ a lot when listening to music. It removed alot of the bass and it sounds like a blanket gets thrown over the audio. Is the NC designed to be used without music or what? Have to try them out more before making up my mind entirely about them, but thus far.. I'm not so sure. Good review though!
@@ToolsElectroDIY Tried the NC on my way to work and I'm not digging it.. None of the modes worked for me. The indoor/outdoor modes had the least effect on the audio quality of the music but they had a weird low bas rumble that wasn't caused by the music. The Transport mode removed that low bass rumble but also removed the bass from my music.. and there was also a strange mid-range spike going on. So for noise cancellation these headphones are a no go (for me). They are however, really good as normal wireless headphones. The range is great, really long battery life, the audio quality is surprisingly good and the passive noise cancellation is good enough. Just my experience.
@@Heikken Hello. Hope you got your desired headphone. If by any chance you have the Q30 still with you, could you please please share how is the wired experience like? In terms of audio quality (with power /ANC off mode). Because it is very important for me that I am getting a solid wired experience, ANC and wireless are less important to me
@@notsoaverageraj7917 Hello, I haven’t used the headphones in a while but from what I can remember the audio quality itself is really good. I did compare wireless to wired and didn’t notice a difference in audio quality. Both were just fine. The ANC is still weird however.. don’t like it at all. It filters out external noise but changes the audio profile completely. I’m using Marshall Major III’s now as my on-ear headphones and they are really good so I won’t be switching back to the Q30’s any time soon. Hope this helps.
Hey there, will you do the Q30 vs Sony XM4 and Bose NC 700? Would be really curious to see how they stack up to high-end ANC headphones. Btw, nice video, I hope you keep this up.
If my main usage is about calling and online meeting, which budget headphone do you recommend for me in terms of the mic quality? Thanks for your awesome videos
What's your budget? I assume under $100 if you are watching this video? If you are concerned about the mic quality, get the Q20. I never got complaints about Q30 mic from the other end of my call. Q30 is also good.
@@diaracing Thanks for reminding me. I just updated Q30 to the latest firmware.And there is no improvement on the mic quality. (it was a stability release.)
Wow, cool ANC test. Would be great if you could add more noise samples next time, e.g. people talking, music, babies crying, dogs barking, mixed, etc. Just a suggestion :)
@@ToolsElectroDIY That's kinda sad, I bought for myself a Q20 but it has small cups for my ears, it's been uncomfortable. Do you know any other model similar to these ones with a bigger cup? Thanks for helping!
Thanks man. And you are right about the Mic on the Q30. Sounds like I am talking in a box. Much prefer the Q20's Mic over the 30's. Hopefully a firmware update will fix that. If at all possible.
Right on. I don't understand why the mic on Q30 is poor. It seems the QA team from Soundcore is not doing their job. Or the product designers didn't perform this simple test as I did when the mic components were picked?
Q30 is the one I can recommend. Not sure if you watched the part one of Q30 review yet, if not, here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/QZK8wH4f74o/v-deo.html
Excellent review btw This is how reviews should be done on audio devices But Im kinda confused now seeing many reviews saying that they are bass-heavy im more of a balanced Sound guy with a decent base. can you please tell me about the vocals and instrumentation?
Does the Q20+ get closer to the quality of the Q30? Seems like with the addition of USB-C, firmware updates, and ability to use the app, they are more or less the same.
@@ToolsElectroDIY ah yes I saw it before this one, but I was wondering how does the ANC and sound stack up against the newer bose 700 and Sony xm4. The way you do things is perfect please keep doing what you are doing 🙏🙏
I noticed that I was holding my breath at some moments... Thank you so much for this video! I'll pick Q20, simply because they are cheaper in my country (50 USD for Q20 vs 100 USD for Q30)
Hi. Thanks for your video. Amazing job. I bought both models and I found a strange background noise on the q30. It’s like a rustle or crackle (windy noise) especially when I listen to edm music. For some reason the sound quality is not as clear as the q20. I’m getting mad comparing few tracks and the problem persists. Soundcore suggested me some troubleshooting tips but nothing worked. Probably they sent me a defective item?? Would you be able to try these two tracks and let me know your thoughts? Shane Codd - Get out my head (the quality at the beginning is very blurred) Alan walker - Faded (some problem throughout all the song)
@@ToolsElectroDIY Yes, I know it doesn't have ANC... and an app, and etc.... but that's why I ask if you think as a complete package is it all worth the extra $40 to get the Q30... or should I get the Q10 and buy some great food with the $40 I save? Ha!
I have the Q10. They have explosive bass and very nice mids and highs. But they are not for the audiophile. They are for bassheads like me. No ANC no frills. The build construction is also very good like the hinges are metal compared to plastic in Q20 and Q30 and Q35. I've purchased my Q10 for 38 CDN $ in Aprils and they are now (May 20) 65,99 with a 20$ rebate. So the prices don't go down, they go up instead. I have the orange and purple one and they are nowhere to be found now. Only black and red. Hurry up if you want them. And don't worry, you won't regret it.
So you say the q30 is better than q20 ? Because I've ordered the q20 but I don't know what to do. The order is not gone yet. Do you advise me to cancel the order and change it with the q30 ?
I'm interested in one of these headphones but q20+ and q30 are out because they don't have anc when wired. That leaves q20 at 50 quid and q35 at 130 (100 on discount). Is the jump from q20 to q35 worth it, mainly based on anc quality?
I wish you did a common test with something like working in an office or public (where people chatter). But great regardless and i'm going with the Q20s.

Hi. Thanks for your video. Amazing job. I bought both models and I found a strange background noise on the q30. It’s like a rustle or crackle (windy noise) especially when I listen to edm music. For some reason the sound quality is not as clear as the q20. I’m getting mad comparing few tracks and the problem persists. Soundcore suggested me some troubleshooting tips but nothing worked. Probably they sent me a defective item?? Would you be able to try these two tracks and let me know your thoughts? Shane Codd - Get out my head (the quality at the beginning is very blurred)
Alan walker - Faded (some problem throughout all the song)
Have you tried upgrading the firmware to the latest? Or it could be a defective unit.
@@ToolsElectroDIY yes firmware updated. Probably it’s a faulty unit
quick update. I ordered a new pair and send back the faulty one. I love them. They were actually faulty.
@@kem543 which one do you prefer then in term of sound quality, Q20 or Q30?
@@ranmasaotome2876 q30 definitely
What is the self noise tets? is it what sound leaks from the headphone at max volume music playing?
the noise from the headphones when no audio is playing.
I'm disapointed with q30, same anc performance and i expected much better. How about taotronics 90 compared to q20?
I don't have taotronics 90 yet.
q20 when compared to Oneodio A30 which is good?
Q20 is better.
thanks
@@alfianrizky9685 udah beli q20 bang? Gmna sound qualitynya?
Can u make video comparison between q30 and sony XM 4 please.. I need to know which one i should buy
Get Q30. 1000xm4 is not better. See ua-cam.com/video/LwOio_KxWys/v-deo.html
@@ToolsElectroDIY thanks bro.. Appreciate it
The q30 is not available in my country. But the q20 is around 45$ in my country should i go for it or wait till q30 comes ?
Get Q20. It has similar ANC performance.
Hi sir are you malingna review of q30 vs bose qc35 and sony mx4?? Just wanna know how it woupd keep up with the 2 hehe
Hopefully you'll see my comments 😊
See the Part 1 of this review series: Q30 vs QC35 ua-cam.com/video/QZK8wH4f74o/v-deo.html
are they have the same sound quality in default and when anc is on?
Yes
How about the original Q10 - The Q30 is $80 and the Q10 - is $40. Is it worth the extra $40?
Q10 doesn't have ANC. It's a great value around $30 though. For budget ANC, get Q30.
@@ToolsElectroDIY Yes, I know it doesn't have ANC... and an app, and etc.... but that's why I ask if you think as a complete package is it all worth the extra $40 to get the Q30... or should I get the Q10 and buy some great food with the $40 I save? Ha!
@@SwellerVanDweller worth it. You will use it for many years. Not just eat food once!
@@ToolsElectroDIY Ha! Nice! Q30 it is! Thanks!
I have the Q10. They have explosive bass and very nice mids and highs. But they are not for the audiophile. They are for bassheads like me. No ANC no frills. The build construction is also very good like the hinges are metal compared to plastic in Q20 and Q30 and Q35. I've purchased my Q10 for 38 CDN $ in Aprils and they are now (May 20) 65,99 with a 20$ rebate. So the prices don't go down, they go up instead. I have the orange and purple one and they are nowhere to be found now. Only black and red. Hurry up if you want them. And don't worry, you won't regret it.
So would you say the q20 have good noice cansalering
Q20 and Q30 probably have the same ANC performance.
@@ToolsElectroDIY sweet thanks they look really good uwu
nice
Thanks
So you say the q30 is better than q20 ? Because I've ordered the q20 but I don't know what to do. The order is not gone yet. Do you advise me to cancel the order and change it with the q30 ?
Yes I would totally recommend Q30.
@@ToolsElectroDIY I am going to cancel the order of the q20 on amazon and buy the q30. Thank you very much
@@mohamedtemka i think they are not so different. İf you dont need app, eq settings, transparency mode and usb c port actually they are same.
@@mehmetefeisk2972 Thanks. The usb C port is a good thing. I have a lot of problems with micro usb. I also would add the q30 has a case.
I need to change the battery! After 2 years of use, now It barely lasts. Is that possible? (q30)
I don't know. I didn't do it
Who best q20 or q30 (anc) ı have bad english I will be happy if you answer
They have the same ANC performance.
@@ToolsElectroDIY thanks
This is incredible 👍🏿👍🏿
thanks
I'm interested in one of these headphones but q20+ and q30 are out because they don't have anc when wired. That leaves q20 at 50 quid and q35 at 130 (100 on discount). Is the jump from q20 to q35 worth it, mainly based on anc quality?
The sound quality is the same.
Idk it u tried the mu6 space 2 but i saw some reviews and I dont know if u should spend 2x more money than the Anker q30 , can you help me please?
Get Q30. You won’t regret it.
@@ToolsElectroDIY Ty man :)
Nostalgia HTC One.
Yes
I wish you did a common test with something like working in an office or public (where people chatter). But great regardless and i'm going with the Q20s.
I did. See part one of this review
@@ToolsElectroDIY oh i didnt even know these vids were in parts. Sorry!
you read my mind with the Sonys. I have the XM2s, still extremely happy with them. looking forward to the big test. my money is on sony.
Haha! I need to spend more time on this Sony vs Bose review.
Who win??
Identical
Nice review not lake most pepeole who shows nothing and just tell you to buy this becouse looks better on paper.
I'm glad you find it useful, thanks for watching!
If they just upped the volume of the q30's it would be perfect imo
Interesting. I think Q30 is loud enough.
Q30 on sales for $64.99 on Amazon.
Yes
