The Anker Soundcore Life Q35 are perfect for anyone looking for a travel-friendly option that still offers great sound. These headphones rotate and fold in the included hard-shell protective case, which also includes a pocket for the USB-C charging cable, 3.5mm cable, and airplane adapter. The sound quality is excellent with no distortion or noise issues.
The Anker Soundcore Life Q35 is not as durable as one with a metal construction. While it doesn’t feel like it’s about to fall apart, the headset isn’t nearly as durable as one with a plastic construction. If you’re lugging it around in your backpack every day, don’t expect it to last forever.
The Life Q35 headphones are uncomfortable over time. The ear cushions are not particularly breathable, which leads to warm ears, even in an office environment. On a hot summer day, don’t wear them for too long.
The Anker Soundcore Life Q35 headphones are designed with a variety of noise-cancelling modes and features to adapt to almost any environment. A single button on the back of the left ear cup toggles between passive isolation, active noise cancellation (ANC) and transparency modes. When ANC is not engaged, most high-frequency noise above 1 kHz is blocked by the tight seal and clamping force of the headphones. ..
The Life Q35 uses Bluetooth 5.0 with support for SBC, AAC, and LDAC. However, in our tests, LDAC playback was not as good as SBC or AAC playback. Any device running Android 8.0 or later supports LDAC, although you can manually switch to SBC or AAC in your Android phone’s developer settings. ..
The Anker PowerCore+ headphones have great battery life. The battery lasts for 40 hours per charge, but in our battery test with music playing at 75 dB(SPL) and ANC enabled, the headphones lasted for 52 hours and 21 minutes. The fast charging ability is also great, which can achieve a 4-hour charge in just 5 minutes.
