While i have had Anker Soundcore LifeP2 for about month, I will only speak to how these earbuds have performed thus far. For the month I have had these, I will say this is the best quality earbuds I have had. If Anker charged me $170 for these buds, I would've shelled out the money regardless. Thats how good a product this is. Again Im not much for the idea of something fitting in your budget, because if its important you'll spend what you think its good for you and you want the buds to perform at its best and purest form for at least beyond the length of its warranty. Anker has always made a sound quality product and have set the price for its products that makes it affordable for most if not all.
What i love most about the Life P2 is its versatility. I have used these ear buds to make calls through my Iphone, which i never really did with previous earbuds Ive had because the mic quality on most is garbage, and the ability to hear whoever is on the other line is distant meaning that from an audio perspective the acoustics for voice speaking wasn't adequate and they'd only be good for music.
The Life P2 is good on all fronts. Crisp sound to hear, and clarity to speak.
Ive used the Life P2 for Zoom calls and people have said that my voice is more clear and better than the internal mics that are used the MacBook Airs.
The Life P2 is actually a really solid pair of earbuds for physical activity use & workouts. Since COVID-19 Ive done personal workouts with my Trainer using the P2's via Zoom outdoors and have been able to hear and speak with clarity. That says a lot for me because when you're outside ambient noises distort and distract but no issues there. Their noise cancellation isn't stellar but for me i think its more than adequate for myself and does the needful.
So i feel like Ive put the Life P2 to the test in accordance to my usage-lifestyle.
I will say that the only drawback is the distance. How far away can i move with the earbuds away from my cell before it cuts out. I have noticed that sparingly when my phone is connected and i'm listening to music the earbuds cut out sightly, but it doesn't bother me as much as long as it doesn't shut down automatically or pop on inadvertently like other earbuds i've purchased in the past.
Button Usage - a little sensitive but very responsive and easy to use which is a plus for me
Comfort - Ive found them to be very comfortable. Ive had them on for more than an hour riding my bicycle and have also had them on during my runs. Only a few times do i adjust not from discomfort but because i sometimes feel like it maybe loose. This could be a negative but nothing i don't always do to assure the earbuds are secured in my ears.
Battery Life and Charge - This is a big win for me, Ive said in my previous review of another earbud i purchased regrettably. You cant really give any review or consider a product quality when you cant get a legitimate charge to your earbuds. I don't care how fancy it looks or is built. No charge or issues charging the earbuds is non-starter automatic 1 star product in my opinion. Life P2 blows away the competition. They secure in the case They offer a legitimate charge, and when you automatically remove the buds from the case and add to your ear it tell you if the charge is high or low or will die out. This is a great feature to have. The case gives a solid quick charge in 15 mins for at least an hour. And you get a solid 2 hrs+ on your buds which is huge. It's a legitimate 2+ hrs. I think its more cause i haven't been in a situation that warrants keeping the buds for that long a period but knowing that is a bonus.
Sound Quality- Best in the business as far as Im concerned. Solid on the lows/mids and bass has the kind of punch i like to hear when Im zoning.
Im sure people will lean on Beats or Earpods, SkullCandy or Jabras but Life P2 can run with the big dogs no question here.
Overall- This is as a good an earbuds as i have seen or listened with and it blows my mind how much i spent for these. i have already gotten my moneys worth on these earbuds. You will not be disappointed with these earbuds if you get them. These are a great all-purpose earbuds that will work to accommodate all aspects of your lifestyle and still provide a quality brand and feel your looking for especially if image/look is your thing.
