Anker Soundcore A30i & R50i NC Review: Which Wireless Earbuds Are Worth It?

[@jose77-v]

how's the transparancy mode on the r50i nc? is it transparent enough?

[@itdpenz]

For the R50i nc, it's pretty solid but very echoey; I can hear my own voice amplified, fan/wind sounds like rain...

[@KVI580]

How is the ANC compared to Liberty 4 NC? Im planning to buy R50i NC... Need your advice. And how is the mic quality?

[@itdpenz]

tl;dr: Get the 4NC if within your budget, pricy but worth the extra; while the R50i feels like a lite version which is still a pretty good earpiece at that price point. If the ANC on the 4NC is like 4.6/5 then it feels like the ANC on the R50i is like 4.2 (on manual mode and no music playing) both are close enough but I prefer the vibes from the 4NC especially if you like the enclosed feels. Both are exellent when music is playing. Audio though, the 4NC is better, but can custom your EQ to fit a good fit. For the mic on the R50i is decent; but mic's not a dealbreaker for me so I can't comment much. It really depends on your budget, I feel that R50i is a good entry to try out the soundcore app and their audio products before looking at other alternatives. Hope this helps!

@@itdpenz i love the 4NC because it is perfect for me in every way. Even mic anc and fast charging everything is there. But its not withn my budget. I want earbuds with ANC thats why i want the R50i

[@KVI580]

@@itdpenz Just tell me is the ANC and calls are good?

[@itdpenz]

@@KVI580 Definitely something to consider at the price point. Imho, I wouldn't say it's good but more of decent as I have my own issues with the R50i but it's subjective so unless you are still comparing products, I still think the R50i is a device to get.

@@itdpenz Thanks i will consider

Hi Bro Which ones are louder between the two

[@itdpenz]

Tbh, I can't really tell; the EQ and other settings also affect the perceived loudness... If you want a more 'secluded' sound, I would go for the R50i (or u can try the liberty 4NC)

[@kratos7444]

Overall which would Pick. The R50i or A30i?

[@itdpenz]

IMHO, I prefer the A30i, you can read the description for my views.

[@mielmartinez4736]

Which has better anc?

[@itdpenz]

Imho, the R50i NC has better ANC sounds compared to the A30i. But personally I have some issues with the R50i especially when it's very windy. Hope this helps 👍🏻

[@prash1246]

Which has better clarity??

[@itdpenz]

If you are talking about the mic, i feel both are about the same

[@prash1246]

@itdpenz iam talking about clarity in sound

[@itdpenz]

​@@prash1246 Oh my bad, if you are refering to the clarity: For lyrics, both are clear but flat; clean sound overall, decent but not really great at standard settings. My prefered EQ for the R50i is the 3D surround sound with Bass Booster (sound more consistent with more bass kick) While for the A30i, I use Acoustic and 3D surround sound (more full feels with better sepration) Ngl, I love the 3D surround sound, but not on the 4NC, which made it sound spacious but hollow...

@@itdpenz i recieved my A30i can you tell me how can i check the battery of the case. And while charging how can i know that the battery is half charge and full charge??

[@itdpenz]

​ @prash1246 There's no way to tell the exact % of the battery of the case even if you charge it. There's lashing lights when charging, its fully charged when the case light is steady and stop flashing.
