Bottom Line

Although the Zolo Liberty+ is clearly on the pricy side of Anker’s headphone offerings, its clear and high-class sound, extremely long playtime between charges, and extra-fast Bluetooth pairing are well worth the initial investment.

Pros

Up to a whopping 48 hours of playtime per charge. Featherweight wireless Bluetooth earbuds. Extraordinary rich sound for such a small device. Adjustable design to fill all ears. Microphones optimized for your phone’s voice recognition technology.

Cons

These wireless headphones are the most expensive option available from Anker, but that’s only because they’re the best.

Bottom Line

If you love the idea of listening to your favorite music on the go, but you haven’t found an ultra-lightweight Bluetooth headset that’s comfortable enough, it’s time to give the SoundBuds Slim a try.

Pros

7 hours of playtime per charge. Control your music via integrated microphone voice controls. Multiple colors available. Water and sweat resistant. High quality sound.

Cons

Although 7 hours is more than enough time to hit the gym and return home, some users may prefer a longer battery life.

Those over-the-ear hooks may take a little getting used to at first.

In-ear headphones are becoming more popular, now that we can listen to music on our mobile devices. Some can even beat their bigger over-the-ear cousins and deliver more satisfying sound than speakers. Anker specializes in in-ear headphones that are well regarded for their sound quality. Comfort is important with in-ear models. While most of Anker’s earbuds are wired, it sells one wireless model that may be preferable to those who find cords get in their way. Their sports models have sweat-resistant materials and loops or clips to help keep them in place. Some of their headphones have noise-cancelling technology. If noise cancellation and water-resistance aren’t important, then Anker’s high sound quality can be found in one of its simpler, cheaper models.

Other Products We Considered
