Here is a link to them on Amazon but they have a different model name than the ones at Wal-Mart...same earbuds: amzn.to/3xjwCLW
They are also called the A3i, maybe that's why you couldn't find them?
I really like the value Soundcore added with these. Earbuds with features and app support for under $100 is a win.
Very well put. 👍
$45 on Amazon right now. Arrived last night, and I’m pretty stunned at their performance!
Hey, are there any downsides?
@@mrcreamsterm1908 still using and loving them.
How is it so far
Does it support in ear detection ?
if you mean stuff like auto pause when you tkae it off your ears, then no it doesn't@@imtheone01
Rocking these in the rotation today. Always put a smile on my face when their turn comes around. Stunning treble detail even at very low volume, and sub bass that shows up and surprises you when the music calls for it.
Add all the other features and app support these are easily a no brainer purchase at the price.
I really like these. I'll have to pick them up. I like the design, the very decent 9 hour battery life and control over everything.
Really appreciate a metalhead doing these reviews - metal's weird and you really have to do specific things well to make it sound good.
Agreed. Metal just doesn't work with alot of earbuds due to it's complexity...and all at once
Just purchased these buds and they sound very very good. They respond quite well to the equalization in the app and makes the music really pop!! Why they are only marketed in Walmart and Target is beyond me.
Amazon sells them now too but it’s listed as the Life A3i.
How good is the anc?
@@saadabdullah4245 Not as good as buds that are over $100 but it’s good enough.
@@saadabdullah4245 personally I would say excellent for the constant sounds like engines and low tones, high tones get reduced in volume. They are definitely good and effective. I would say about 85% of the xm3's anc performance which is definitely good for such a good price.
Pleasant surprise that these exist. Wish they were touch control vs physical touch as I can live without wireless charging. L3P is still my #1 but these are impressive for the price!!
got these for $45 on Prime Day. what a steal! initially had the transparency mode issue (huge eq shift and overpowering bloated bass), emailed customer support and they emailed me the next day notifying me of a firmware update. downloaded the firmware update and resolved the issue, and there is almost no noticeable eq shift when switching to ANC or transparency mode. great service and excellent buds. not to mention they are very compact and sound amazing!
How do you update them?

Thanks for your videos.
Being fairly new to earbuds , your videos really help
I got a pair and I love them, I drive truck and I can talk all day and person on the other side of the call has never complained and I always ask to make sure they can ear me good and do some sounds test in front of a Cummings diesel engine and the sound is really good. 👍
Love when the earphones reviews be made by a metal lover
Great video as always. I may pass because I have the pro already but for people who may not know walmart and best buy have been releasing certain earbuds with a varient like "i" or in the case of skullcandy "xt" mostly so they can not be price match with the likes of Amazon. These may show up in bestbuy as xr as opposed to i
Just bought them after seeing your vid. Glad to say they are actually good and the customisable EQ is the cherry on top
How is the experience of listening to a movie with active noise cancellation?
@@bojacksimpson8624 For me personally, i didnt like the active noise cancellation that much. It sounds different from normal mode as i am using a custom eq setting.
And if you are using the default EQ too? I just want when I'm watching a movie or doing something on the PC, and there are noises from other apartments, to be able to mute it. (I never had any noise canceling headphones).
@@bojacksimpson8624 no i am using a modified setting of acoustic eq
@@bojacksimpson8624 and if you are planning to get these only for the noise cancellation, you will be disappointed. the NC is pretty average. you will still be hearing all high pitched sounds from your surrounding
Yours is the only review can find on TH-cam in English. Nobody In the UK even knows they exist yet. - YOU ARE THE FIRST!
they are under £50 now in uk. After seeing this review i will seriously consider the oat white colour earbuds. They look nice.
*The sound quality on these earbuds is. 10 times better than AirPods Pro 2, comparing them right now even on my iPhone 15 pro max , the AirPods Pro sounds trash by comparison even with the special audio feature turned on*
For 47$ from Walmart this purchase is a steal
I have the 3 pros and the dot 3, I liked the physical button by far, great buy for 50 bucks
How close do they both sound to each other? I have the dot 3 and they’re great but I had an incident where the sound got degraded and was thinking of these again for Christmas or the liberty 3 pro
I picked these up a few days ago and I was careful not to be overly excited because they were new. I've been testing these against my Liberty air 2 pro and Liberty 3 pro and I can't believe I'm saying this, but if Soundcore wants to continue selling their high-end earbuds they shouldn't be making their budget buds sound just as good if not better. Every day I begin my job by using the LA2P and then go to the L3P when the LA2P batteries die, but for the past few days I've been ditching the LA2P halfway through because I was more impressed with the sound quality of these. Granted, the ANC/ambient modes aren't quite up to the standards of the LA2P (L3P is a different story) but the sound quality is definitely right there. What may put these over the top for some folks is the maximum volume is notic ably louder than either of the other two which totally came in handy.
These buds and liberty air 2 pro sell for the exact same price in my country. Which one would you recommend?
@@berkbulut2168 liberty air 2 pro are superior in that they have wireless charging and better call quality but controls are limited. these are more compact and have very good button controls (physical button not touch) that can be customized to control everything. sound quality is similar in both. so pick based on what features you prioritize. you can't really go wrong with either one
@@deeayeveeeyees Liberty air 2 pro is very uncomfortable for small-medium ears?
For this price range (50usd) do you recommend these or for example something from Tozo or EarFun?
@@bojacksimpson8624 I personally haven't tried anything from Tozo so can't speak to that. but I have the earfun free 2, aoundcore liberty air 2 pro, and life.A3i. I think earfun is awesome in terms of sound and fit (and wireless charging) but in the $50 price range, the life.3i/LifeA3i have amazing sound quality (better than earfun in my opinion) and access to the app and equalizers. I also love the button control because you don't have to worry about accidental touches. the button control on these is very good and convenient. also if you're in the US,(as of July 31,2022) bestbuy has the Liberty Air 2 pro (in blue only) for $49.99. it's a steal considering the normal price is $130. I don't know if it's a glitch but it's only for the blue color ones. you can get it and return it if you don't like it.
@@deeayeveeeyees Thanks! The Air2 Pro are better? Unfortunately I do not have a return option since I would buy them outside the US.
What I'm mainly looking for is
1. Comfortable for small to medium ears (and sleep)
2. Acceptable sound for watching movies
3. Noise cancellation for mainly indoor use.
Low key killer buds. Put my Liberty 3 Pros back in storage to preserve them while I rock these in the circulation. They're that good for sound and ANC. Very bright and clear but still have that Soundcore thump.
Damn, better than liberty pro 3.
@@Cryptosavage. Not what I meant lol. Let's be clear, L3P are superior earbuds - period. I just mean the A3i are close enough, especially in treble clarity and detail. Amazing given they aren't a dual driver.
I just got the jbl club pro and amazed by the sound these put out once you tweek the eq settings. Give my sound core liberty and sennheiser cx plus's a break.
@@Cryptosavage. JBL are killer. Got Live Pro 2 on half price sale. Liked them so much I picked up the 130 and 230 NC half price at the next sale. JBL are deep-basshead certified and very natural sounding - that 'Harman' tuning that doesn't fatigue. Imo Soundcore only does high treble clarity and airiness better
@@outermarker5801 Exactly! Sometimes I need that thunder......jbl!
Great video, you always give a great review
I saw these at Walmart also. Soundcore has so many options.
I have a problem with my life dot 3i buds, I forgot them in my pocket and they got washed in the washing machine, they still work but the only problems are: the light on the case is always on, and the buds do not disconnect when placed in the case.
Has anyone else faced this problem?
I bought them and they sound great for calls and video calls. I use them on zoom meetings and people say they can hear me well without problems. I like the physical buttons and I love the app. The only thing I'm not comfortable with is the battery life. Box says they can last up to 9h but I've used them in normal mode and they lasted 3.5 hours (left earbud) 4 hours (right earbud) am I doing something wrong?
Alright, after getting deeper into the subject I found out that the Bluetooth codec I was using was AAC which according to what I read is a power-hungry codec. I selected the Bluetooth codec SBC and now the battery on my earbuds last much longer! I also read that the LC3 codec is also good for lower power consumption. Thanks! Hopefully this information will be useful for others.
Great, another pair to add to my collection. 😂 Thanks Keith.
Bought this recently and I was surprised about it's quality for it's price point! It's a deal ! You won't regret it
Its definitely a hit or miss. And in my case these gotta be the worst headphones ive ever tried. The sound quality is good but the build quality and quality control is so ass. I bought these and returned them about 5 times, and it never worked properly, not even once. I dropped it once an hour ago and the button on the left earbud broke. DO NOT buy these shit dots
I saw these a couple of days ago at Walmart and tried to find a review obviously I couldn't. But now we have a great one thank you very much. The biggest value here to me is app support even if it is dialed back a bit. Thanks again much appreciated. 🤔👍🇺🇸
Nice review… yet another banger from Soundcore then! I’m hoping / guessing the sound quality is exactly the same as the Life P3i!
Thank you! You're the only person who showed how these earbuds looked in ear (1:28), nobody else seems to show that for some reason. I used the Life A1 s and the silicone piece with the logo on (the one covering the button) fell off twice (once on my original pair, and now they're falling off on my replacement that I got from the warranty). I ordered these A3i s just now, hoping they're good though I'll miss the wing tips on the A1 s
I know you like your wired IEM’s. This channel is geared towards the truly wireless version.
You really should review the FIIO UTWS5 True Wireless Bluetooth Adapter. You get the convenience of Bluetooth yet you can still use your favorite wired IEM wirelessly. It’s a very intriguing product
Are these any better than the SoundPeats Mini Pro which you can get for $50
Yea I had the same question
el jefe compares these two in his review. he rates the sound quality of this one better. I just got it today and can vouch for the sound quality. sound js excellent
Yes they are
Thanks…I enjoyed your review. I like Soundcore line of earbuds. Blessings on your day.
I bought (from Amazon) these pair of headphones after the review of yours 7:40 (I am from Indian)
Amazing review, helped me so much, thank you
I've been a huge fan of the Life Dot 2s in comfort and sound. This is SO EXCITING!!!
Life dot 2 vs life dot 3i?
@@crissmilke6994 comfort wise, life Dot 2 is way more comfortable. The 3i's would rub in my left ear too much causing it to blister. Sound quality and features though easily go to 3i. So it mainly is comfort vs function.
Thanks for another good video, Keith, wow SoundCore's inventory is getting real good! They have been blowing up since the Ro-nia came along. I can't believe how they put themselves amongst the "High End" earbuds, good for them. Have a great weekend with your ladies, ✌ out dude!
Great review man.. thanks
The bass isn't as punchy as I would like, but for $60 it isn't bad. I got these to wear at work so battery life was the biggest selling point.
How punchy do you want them to be lol
@Some random Guy with pocket Sand punchy like a short drunk guy that's got something to prove.
Try using poweramp equalizer then go to settings to enable DVC and compression dial all to zero except threshold set to -23db and gain to 30 db it will boost everything compare to the in house app.
@Norman Medalle I don't use them anymore, using Beats Fit Pro at work now. Gave the Soundcore's to my step son.
Greetings, i always enjoy your in depth reviews. How would you compare these soundcore ear buds to the Tempo 30 buds in terms of pure sound quality? I understand that this is very subjective. Ty 😎
I'm just hoping we get a liberty air pro 3 soon
I love your reviews!!
Can you please tell me if you like this better than the soundpeats sonic?
Thank you!!!!
yup. those are some amazing sounding earbuds by soundcore
I found some in Amazon with the name Life A3i, I don’t know if they are the same but physically they look the same
Yes their the same
Great job as ¹always! Please take the time to send condolences 🙏 to fellow tech tuber Frankie (of Frankie Tech) whose wife just recently passed away, thx.
What is the difference between these and the Life A3i?
Edir. Just read your note.
I'm actually going back and forth between these and the Soundpeats Mini Pro HS, which are $45 on Amazon right now. 🤔
These seem like a No Brainer! My son has the Liberty 3 Pros and loves them. For me, these seem like, as Flossy would say, “MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR GO!”
Great find Keith, I had no idea those were even available! Love the channel man, still my go to earbud guy!!!
Just got this pair yesterday and I really like them. I never tried the 3 Pros so I’m not sure if they sound similar but the Life Dots really sound good.
I saw a snipet of another new one called Soundcore Sport X10 with earhooks,they look like sporty kind of earbuds and they look so nice.
On CEOINTHEMAKING's channel.
Saw this too. To me, they looked similar to liberty 3 pro's with the addition of wrap around flexible 'over and around' ear hooks that even Tom Cruise could wear without the buds falling out.
Exactly can't wait to watch how they turn out.
Please explain the charge indicator on the case.
Just picked some up from amafor £35 very happy 😊
great video, full of information
No mention of latency. Any lag with watching videos or gaming?
Hey man whats the volume like on these? Would you say they are on par with the h1?
yes, these get quite loud
The only con and it's a big con with my liberty 3 pros is the touch controls are very inconsistent
Just received these today and doing some testing, so far my earfun free pro 2 sound best even without app no change in sound when going from anc to ambient mode , im using my own custom EQ on these and then when swapping from noise cancelling to ambient mode the sound changes so much its actually horrible, you have to do another EQ when using ambient mode, still working on that tho, the fit is great
Hey sooo does the noice cancellation have like a compression effect which is uncomfortable
The ambient mode issue got fixed today through a firmware update.
I wonder how these compare to the Life Dot 2S (best buy/target exclusive) that I have. Price is very similar, but with wireless charging and no noise canceling/ambient mode. Also comes with app support.
What's ur opinion on ur dot 2s? .. Volume wise and fit? What would you compare them to.. Theyre on sale at best buy and I'm looking into them.
@@sonnyv.3947 Volume wise they can get pretty loud, especially after adjusting the custom EQ, I'd say a 9.5/10 for that. As for fit they are quite comfortable since they aren't too big and have the wingtip to secure the earbuds in place.
@@Agent311they're on sale for 40$ at best buy .. Worth it?
@@sonnyv.3947 if you don't need ANC then sure, it's the same price I got them for and I've enjoyed using them. If you would like or need ANC however then I would just spend more for the 3.
Are the life dot 2 NC+ gonna stick around, or was that a limited time thing?
Think it was limited because I've been trying to replace mine for months now but they are out of stock
These or the Space A40? I got the EarFun Free 3 but I’m having a problem with the fit on those. I’m a gym rat and like to cut out the loud music playing in the gym. I prefer my own choice of music.
The Space A40 is the better of the two
@@OfficialGamesky thanks Keith. Prompt as always. Keep up the good work. More success to you.
@@OfficialGamesky sorry. One last question - what about the Jabra Elite 4 active? I had the 75t and so far I have yet to experience any earbuds that perform as well as the 75t did. Plus they lasted 2 years with all the sweating I put them through. Thanks again.
which is better, soundcore life dot 3i or edifier w240tn? @@OfficialGamesky
Hello, very good, would you help me? In your opinion, are these better or the soundpeats mini pro? I mean in terms of sound for multimedia in general, microphones for calls and battery life in the headset, and that they feel of quality or that they are durable and will not break, if not, could you recommend headphones for this price range? (good sound, microphone and battery) thanks greetings 🖐
I am looking at soundcore, are these better than the Life P3s?
How would you say these fair against the comfobuds pro? And did you see the Redmi dots 4 pro? they seem very interesting!
How do these compare to the space a40?
How do they compare to the earfun free pro 2?
I'm suprised the sound is very good. Is as good as my sony linkbuds S, sometimes even better.
Are Edifier Neobuds Pro still good if I want to purchase it now, or there are better option at $100 price?
I enjoyed your informative video but I still understand how I know my earbuds are fully charged
The only problem I have is that they stay connected once I put them back into the case and I have to go and turn Bluetooth off to disconnect them
Hi! Could you please do the Life P3i Review?
You can submerge in water dropped in the toilet after flush 😂 fished them out rinsed under faucet still no issues sound way better than my wife's beats paid over 100 bucks for those get them you will love these and you can lay on pillow won't hurt hears but you have to search for one in the morning 😂
Bro I accidentally got hand sanitizer on them and it worked weird for a few days but now it’s starting to sound normal again but I’m not sure. Honestly I’m scared but if they mess up, I’ll ask for another pair. One time I got them wet accidentally and was scared but they still worked all this time since that. I’m surprised.
Would we call the noise canceling "really good"? I heard they're close to airpods on noise canceling and you're always saying negative things about air pods noise canceling
How do these compare to the Earfun Free Pro 2 in terms of sound quality and for working out
Just picked up this one.
Sir dot 3i comparison to soundpeak mini pro?? What's the difference??
Hi, can i use right and left earbuds separately. I mean i wanna use only one side, sometimes right sometimes left one.
Is it normal to hear hissing sound while either transparency or anc are active? No problem in normal mode.
Connect when open case cap or has to takeout buds after connect?
Thanks for the video. I assume they don't have multipoint?
no multipoint but to be expected at this price.
Great great value
The buttons though
They remind me of the beats studio as either have wireless charging.
What is the difference between this one and note 3i?
The only thing I don't like is anker privacy policy
what’s wrong with it
Is this dual mode?
Or like traditional tws with master and slave
which you prefer these or soundpeats sonic pro?
TWS Soundcore Dot 3i or Xiaomi Redmi Buds 3 Pro = which better?
So I got these earbuds a month or so ago and They just randomly turn down at moments. I’ve tried everything I can do to get the volume back up but even with my phone volume all the way up I can still barely hear out of the buds. I really like these headphones but i’m starting to lose hope😂
There are no availability on this model here in the Philippines. :(
In Indian Rs.3000/- it's not a budget earbuds.
Budget means below Rs.1000/-
You guys are Richy Rich.😊😊
how is this compared to the Soundpeats Mini Pro?
I just wonder how these sound compared to My NOTHING EAR (1) ?
How long will it take to charge the charging case
Saya punya tapi yang sebelah kanan yang (R) gak konek gimana ga ser 😢
Do you recommend this for running?
These look expecially good!
These or Ungreen hitone? Which are better
can you use each side independently?
No higher end codecs mentioned
Great review as always.
Life P3i or Life A3i/Dot3i, which would say is better or do the JBL Live Free NC beat them 🤷
I want it for mostly music but also do alot of commuting
Great review. I wonder if these are AD2P and can connect to two devices at once? If you said it in your video , I'm sorry I missed it.
How do i know these are fully charged (case), im charging it right now and its slowing blinking its white light.
i have around 90% on both earpieces btw, i got them by your recommendation, a steal at $30 👍
Is this earbuds has gaming mode?
@@shocktriple i donr recall it, id say no gaming mode. I recommend you look at the newer models or higher end ones of you're looking for a gaming mode. Else, save the money and get yourself a solid iem with mic, definitely better latency than any tws ever, at least till this day.
I've lost count of how many models Soundcore has now. Think they may be thinning out the soup a bit? 🤔
Overall, your comment is valid... Seems that his model does fill a gap in their lineup tho.. an anc/transparency mode tws primarily for sports the way I see it (earbud style instead of stem and although it has no fins its shape will likely result to a stable fit) that also has all the controls on the bud (the life dot 2 did not) and is cheaper than the L3P...
