Soundcore Sport X20
Score: 82/100
Soundcore V20i
Score: 76/100Rankings
Soundcore Sport X20 combines 48 hours of total battery life with IP68 protection, adaptive ANC, and multipoint connectivity. Its larger weight and lack of wireless charging may deter some, and performance data under ANC is sparse. Tailored for athletes and fitness enthusiasts demanding secure fit and robust features.
The Soundcore V20i provides an open-ear design with strong bass, long battery life, and robust IP55 protection. It lacks active noise cancellation and can sound hollow, and the hooks may need adjustment. Best for active users who prioritize awareness and battery endurance over immersive isolation.

Products in the top-left offer the best value (high score, low price).
Professional reviewers commend the V20i for its comfortable open-ear hook design, strong bass via BassUp, clear call performance with AI-enhanced microphones, and robust IP55-rated durability. However, they point out the hollow sound signature, lack of active noise cancellation, and a weight that is higher than some ultra-light competitors.
Everyday users love the secure fit, long battery life, bass punch, and the fun, music-synced lighting, while repeatedly noting the hollow audio character, occasional app glitches, and the need to fine-tune the hooks for a perfect fit.
