The Soundcore Q30 by Anker Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones are over-ear wireless headphones with 40 mm drivers and Hi-Res Audio certification. The hybrid ANC system uses dual noise-detecting microphones to filter out up to 95% of low-frequency ambient sound. The Q30 includes three ANC modes (Transport, Outdoor, and Indoor), each tuned for a different listening environment. Bluetooth 5.0 supports multi-point connections for switching between two devices. The protein leather earcups with memory foam padding sit over the ears without putting much pressure on the head.

Comfortable headphones with bombastic, quality audio

The Q30 uses three different ANC modes that you can switch between through the Soundcore app or by pressing the button on the left earcup. Transport mode is tuned to cancel engine noise on planes, trains, and buses, so it’s the mode to use during travel. Outdoor mode reduces traffic and wind sounds for walking around in busy areas. Indoor mode handles office or coffee shop environments, where the noise is mostly people talking and HVAC systems running in the background.

The 40 mm drivers with silk diaphragms support Hi-Res Audio certification and reach up to 40 kHz on the high end. The default tuning leans bass-forward, which works for most pop and electronic music but can muddy classical or acoustic tracks. The Soundcore app includes a custom EQ with multiple presets and a manual slider for adjusting individual frequency bands.
