***UPDATE***(04/28/2024)Anker has reached out to me to acknowledge my concerns regarding this new product, and has expressed that updates and enhancements will be coming in the near future. Based on their excellent customer service provided and potential future product/design improvement, I have raised my rating from 2 to 3 stars. I will be updating this review to either 4 or 5 stars as soon as improvements are made. Thanks for reading.***Original Review***Expected Better, especially for costThese ear buds get an average score. Let's focus on the bad, then move into the good.The bad-The P40I earbuds are the same price as Anker's over ears Q30, but definitely cannot out match them in terms of performance, sound quality, loudness, phone calls, and noise cancelling. They do not even compare. We are paying the same price point basically for the convenience of the smaller size, and being able to fit the P40I in our pocket. - While the over ear Q30 head phones are priced fairly, (Don't get any ideas Anker) with less performance and less materials needed for manufacturing, technically these earbuds really should cost less than it's over ears counterpart. This is a big negative for me. Next, when synced to two devices, if you are playing music from a PC and change the EQ from the app on your phone the song pauses each time, so if you are trying to balance out a song and try and select through the list, the song will pause for each selection, very annoying if you go through the whole list the song will pause over 10 times while trying to dial in the sound. Also, you can only have 5 "favorite EQ modes" in your favorite list at a time, I cannot understand why they would restrict you to a "top 5", we should be able to have as many as we want.Additionally, while the added phone mount is definitely a plus, and I will get into that more on the positives section, Anker has really goofed up in regards to using this with the app. This is because the mount requires you to mount your phone horizontally. Which is fine. However, when you go to use the Anker app, to adjust a setting, app only works vertically, which makes no sense whatsoever, because of this, you have to keep removing your phone from the mount to use the app. (Please fix this Anker.) Can't use mount vertically, phone will fall over. Also, while you can make adjustments on the buttons for music, which is a win for the "good" column, you can't adjust volume quickly because if you tap too fast it is considered a double or triple tap. (Anker, the solution for this, please add a setting for bigger volume up volume down increments) also, you can't adjust the button settings for calls, which also makes no sense. Noise cancelling is decent for earbuds, but is not perfect like their over ear counterpart. You will still hear noises only at a reduced level. Another downside is the widget which only assists with noise cancelling modes, which most people will not need because they will stick to one setting, yet their are no widget settings for EQ, which is used way more. It would not be hard to add a button for EQ to the widget menu. Speakers will blow out occasionally at max volume on certain songs.The Good:In terms of earbuds, these are definitely more comfortable to wear than most others, good choice of materials, and the location and use of the tap controls makes sense as you are less likely to accidentally press them when making adjustments, unlike some other types of tap ear buds which can be annoyingly too sensitive to even use. Sound is clear and the EQ is nice. Changing the EQ settings definitely makes a difference in terms of the overall user experience. Example: podcasts, to various genres of music, to audiobooks, etc. Also, it is a huge benefit to be able to customize your own button controls. You can select between 1x tap, 2x tap, 3x tap, and press and hold, for each ear. The mount is a nice added bonus, and has a rubber texture on the bottom of the case to prevent sliding when mounted. Noise cancelling works decent for earbuds, but not perfect like the over ear headphones. Connectivity is good and responsive and you can pair to two devices at once. Mount feature is a nice bonus for watching media. Battery life is great.Conclusion: at the end of the day, these ear buds really should not be in the $60 to $70 dollar range. A good price for these would be $30 to $40 dollars.
