Soundcore P31i review

The P31i are the clearest example of how far budget earbuds have come. Soundcore lists real-time adaptive noise cancelling that it says cuts noise by up to 52 dB, picking a cancelling level on its own based on your surroundings. Sound gets Hi-Res certification and LDAC support, which matters for Android owners streaming lossless or high bit rate files. Battery is where the P31i fit this list best: up to 10 hours per charge and 50 hours with the case, and Soundcore also publishes 8 hours per charge and 40 hours total with ANC on, which many makers leave out. A 10-minute charge gives 3.5 hours. Six microphones with AI noise reduction and a wind-noise algorithm handle calls, and real-time translation covers over 100 languages. The gaps: the product page does not mention multipoint or wireless charging, and iPhone owners will stream AAC rather than LDAC. At $59.99 it is still the best mix of quiet, sound and stamina here.
