Score: 80/100
Soundcore P31i with ANC
Score: 87/100Rankings
The Soundcore P31i offers ultra-light comfort, adaptive ANC and a 50-hour total battery life, making it ideal for commuters and travelers. Its bass-heavy tuning and limited transparency mode data may deter audiophiles seeking a balanced sound. Best suited for users who prioritize ANC and long endurance over detailed spec transparency.
The SoundPEATS Air5 Lite provides a 13 mm driver with LDAC support, mild ANC, and a lightweight open-fit design for comfortable all-day wear. Its ANC is modest, and the fit can be slippery during intense activity. Best suited for budget-conscious users seeking good bass and low-latency gaming.

Professional reviewers consider the Air5 Lite a standout budget option, lauding its 13 mm driver, LDAC support, robust AI microphones and low-latency gaming mode, while noting the ANC is modest and the treble can become harsh at high volumes.
Everyday users consistently praise the lightweight comfort, strong bass response, and effective call performance, but they also flag occasional ear fatigue, slip-prone fit, limited ANC and occasional app glitches.
“Compact, very light, no ear fatigue”
“Outstanding job blocking background noise”
Professional reviewers commend the P31i for their feather-light comfort, powerful bass from the 11 mm titanium-coated drivers, and a highly effective adaptive ANC that outperforms the prior P30i. They also note the lack of deep technical data and third-party benchmarks, which limits a full performance assessment.
Everyday users repeatedly praise the earbuds' ultra-light weight, punchy bass, and long battery life, while expressing mild concerns about fit stability and the scarcity of detailed user-generated feedback.
