What reviewers said

1MORE Q20

The 1MORE Q20 are budget-friendly true wireless earbuds that pack in hybrid active noise cancellation and a transparency mode, making them a feature-rich choice for the price. They deliver a long total battery life with the charging case, though the earbuds themselves last only a few hours per charge with ANC active. Their lightweight, water-resistant design and touch controls make them a practical everyday option, but they lack app support, custom EQ, and multipoint connectivity.

  • Pro:Very affordable price with ANC and transparency mode
  • Pro:Lightweight and comfortable with IPX4 water resistance
  • Pro:Long combined battery life with the charging case
  • Con:Short per-charge battery life with ANC on

  • Pro:Solid ANC and transparency modes
  • Pro:Long battery life with the charging case
