Soundcore VR P10 Wireless Gaming Earbuds-Low Latency, Dual Connection, 2.4GHz Wireless, USB-C Dongle Included-Compatible with Steam Deck, PS4, PS5, PC, Switch

My review covers the steam deck and the soundcore app that goes with these buds. Pros: -no (perceptible) latency with the usb-c dongle, perfect for gaming on the steam deck -negligible latency, almost imperceptible, when using bluetooth to watch videos on my phone (old pixel 3 xl with AAC codec), -great sound **When properly adjusted in the app, photo explanation below** -easy/instant control of EQ to get the overall sound you feel is best -Fit very comfortably in the ears for extended periods -0 issues pairing, setting anything up, extremely quick, seems dummy proof. -Could get more dongles in the future if I want (...if they're available) -a handful of options for the color light accent (and ability to turn it off! though i like it) -The dongle has its place in the case when not in use. -the earbuds and dongle easily pop into the case via magnets. Really idiot proof. I have no problem getting the dongle out, though you can't really use one finger to do it. -Maintain a bluetooth connection to something like your phone while using the dongle to get sound from your games. Cons: -No black/dark option -The power passthrough on the dongle is not very much, which is an issue for steam deck users. I guestimate that it must be somewhere in the 20w area (deck needs 45w). I did not test a higher wattage (65w+) charger to see if you can get more throughput (doubtful), but on the 45w charger for the deck through the dongle, it supplies enough power to hold the battery % in place while playing titles such as Hades. Good enough for me. -sound out of the box is... extremely muddy and arguably bad. at least you can fix that. -colors are limited, must not have full rgb, which is fine, but just be aware. red/purple/pink area. -You will likely have to turn off "media" audio on your phone when bluetooth connected to it and simultaneously using the dongle for a game. Any little sound from your phone (notifications, taps, etc) will interupt the sound from the dongle for a few seconds, no exceptions. However, if you get a call, it will do both audio at the same time (supposedly, i've not tested this). Hopefully they can figure out how to fix this little hiccup but don't bet on it. Notes: -Pictured is my EQ setting, where I feel the sound is most full and clear. the default soundcore sound sounds like garbage, is extremely boomy and muddy with no high clarity. None of the presets really get what I wanted, so this setting pictured is my best approximation of "clarity". I think there's some additional processing that must be happening in the buds that may be compressing the audio a bit, but that's just a guess and may not be true. -The case fits perfectly in the steam deck case, doesn't feel like it will fall out either. -check out reviews on youtube, such as the ShortCircuit review (LTT) where I saw these (though that one is a sponsorship and not strictly a review). Ultimately I do recommend these for steam deck users looking for a non-bluetooth way to get latency free audio, but still have bluetooth options. It's a great product overall.

These are not your average true wireless earbuds. In a saturated market of wireless earbuds, these bring a unique feature that opens up many new possibilities of uses that most people might not even know. If you've ever used bluetooth earbuds and noticed that what you were watching or playing wasn't matching up with the sound, then you've experienced audio latency. Bluetooth in its current state is the guilty party that can cause that effect where the lips don't match the voice. Some might not be bothered by this, but once you see it, you can't stop thinking about it. Some hardcore gamers get around this by using 2.4ghz instead of the Bluetooth protocol. 2.4ghz headphones have virtually no latency whatsoever, but require you use a dongle to plug into your device. These Soundcore VR P10 headphones are hybrids with both functions. The dongle allows imperceptibly low latency. But because they are also capable of using the bluetooth protocol, you are able to connect these to both your gaming device and your phone. While gaming or watching videos, if you get a call on your phone, it will automatically lower the volume on your game or video, while prioritizing your call volume. It's a seamless experience. 2.4ghz headphones existed for a while, but until recently, they were mostly over-the-ear style. Personally, I can't stand anything on my head for long periods of time due to the pressure and overheating. There are only a handful of in-ear earbuds with 2.4ghz dongles at the time of this review. This one is the ONLY one that has a passthrough charging feature on the dongle itself. If you use a dongle on a device with only one USB-C port, then you'll have to choose between charging or listening. These dongles allow you to do both. With the battery life of devices like the Quest 2, you'll definitely need to do both at the same time. Non-gamers: If you have a phone, tablet, or laptop that you use to watch movies or shows, take zoom calls, or listen to music, as long as it has a USB-C port you can instantly connect these headphones to your device without fumbling around in the bluetooth settings trying to get it to pair. This is immensely helpful if you constantly switch between using a laptop, a tablet, and a phone. Imagine you are watching a movie on a tablet and you get a zoom call on your laptop. Instead of unpairing and repairing, you just slap the dongle in. Additionally, Anker has stated that more dongles will be available for purchase soon, meaning that you can have multiple dongles, each plugged into a device you use often, and just switch via the app. All the while having low latency. PS5: I've tested it with the PS5. It works flawlessly. Instant connection and no noticeable latency. The sound is very immersive and I can easily tell the direction of footsteps in-game. Additionally, these earbuds finally allow you to use wireless headphones with your PS5. Previously, you had to either use over-the-ear style 2.4ghz headphones, or use a wired headphone plugged into your controller. Otherwise the latency would be preposterous. If you use your PS5 as a media player (Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, etc.) you'll be able to enjoy private listening with wireless earbuds and have no latency. Pair this with a PS5 remote and now you have one of the best and most powerful "Smart-TVs" with a private listening function. If you live in an apartment and watch movies, you're probably constantly turning down the volume when an explosion or shot rocks you to your core, and then turning it back up because you can barely hear the whisper dialogue in the next scene. With these headphones, you can peacefully watch your movie as intended, while not worrying about cables, latency, or your neighbors getting mad. Steamdeck: Works exactly as you might expect. I have not run into any issues. Passthrough charging works great. If the sound suddenly doesn't work and you see "echo-sink-cancel", then its a bug with the Steamdeck, not the headphones. Restart to fix. Be aware that if you buy the official Steamdeck dock, that there is no USB-C out port on that dock. You may have to buy a USB-C to USB-A adapter for the dongle. Quest 2: These headphones were made for the Meta Quest 2. In VR, if you have any sort of latency, it could make things very disorientating and nausea inducing. These are perfect for having an immersive experience and reducing VR sickness. One cool feature is that if you are using it with the Quest, you can turn down the 2.4ghz signal to prevent interference with your wifi. Since the earbuds are so close to the dongle when you use it with the quest, you don't need the signal to be strong. Also, the quest dies very quickly. These are the only true wireless earbuds with a dongle that lets you charge and listen at the same time. They sound much better than the stock speakers on the Quest 2 and allow you to pinpoint the direction that sounds are coming from. The point of VR is immersion. Audio immersion is just as important as visual immersion. Switch: The passthrough function does not work with a Switch. I believe it's a limitation with the Switch's software. It doesn't seem to allow the one USB-C port to have multiple functions at the same time. The headphones still work beautifully via the dongle, but you won't be able to charge at the same time. Not the fault of the soundcore earbuds though. Maybe it can be patched by a switch software update in the future. If you play in docked mode, maybe try plugging the dongle into a USB-C to USB-A adapter and then into the dock. I have not tried this, but it might work. PC: Not every PC has USB-C ports. Not to worry, I have tested these with a USB-C to USB-A adapter and it works great. If your PC does not have a USB-C port, you will need to buy an adapter separately. Otherwise, all features (volume adjust, low latency) function well. Mac: Works really well. You can even adjust volume with a tap on the earbuds (gesture can be adjusted in the mobile app). Since these are both bluetooth and 2.4ghz, you can have them connected to your phone and MacBook at the same time for the ultimate productivity experience. The sound will come through both depending on which device you are using. Example, Zoom on MacBook to phone call on iPhone automatically. iPad: Also works well. Passthrough charging is quite important since the iPad only has one USB-C port. If you game on your iPad, you'll appreciate it. ChromeOS/Chromebook: Works fine but currently there is a weird bug in ChromeOS with USB-C headphones. The volume will adjust normally up to around 50% volume where the loudness suddenly blasts your ears at 51% volume. Be careful with Chromebooks until they patch this. Keep it under 50% or test it past 50% with them out of your ears. **Cons** With certain devices (Switch, Some Tablets), these headphones are a bit limited. The passthrough charging feature won't work unless your device allows that USB-C port to multitask. So be aware of your devices functionality if you're buying this to use with a specific device. With certain devices (Switch, PS5), adjusting the volume via tapping the earbuds don't work. This is again a limitation of the software of those devices, not the earbuds. On the PS5, it is a painful multi-step process to adjust the volume in their menus. Hopefully a software patch will fix this as USB-C headphones become more popular. On mobile devices like Android and iOS tablets and phones, PCs, and MacBooks, it works just fine. The dongle is kept in the top part of the case via a magnet. It's very easy to put it in, but kind of a pain to remove the dongle since it's recessed so far in. If you have bigger hands, this might irritate you. I suggest taking the earbuds out first before trying to take the dongle out. With the exception of some devices, the headphones work amazingly and sound great. They solve a very niche but very annoying problem. Get them, you won't regret it.

Colour me surprise, these earbuds has no latency issue at all if you are using the wifi dongle, I can accurately play rhythm games on my smartphone without any audio sync dely setting used. It's as fast as using a wired ear buds. I have the Soundcore Liberty 2 Air, and the airpod form factor keeps falling out of my ears, so the wing tips of the Soundcore Liberty 2 solve that problem. Now this Soundcore VR ear buds, I was worry that the earbuds will full out often like the Liberty 2 air, but it didn't at all. It actually stayed in place no matter how much I shake my head and move my jaw (like eating motion). The led is both a plus and a minus. sure it consumes power, but it is so handy when you misplace the earbuds, looking around for it. Here are some flaws with these ear buds: * If you are using any device with a case, you will need a usb-c extender. * The bass is on the lower side, so you need to go into the app and turn up the bass. It's not too much of an issue on a device with the app. Not too sure on a device with the soundcore app. Bass is pretty important for explosion sound effects. * Some apps, like Whatsapp, do not play nice with the mic on wifi. You will soumd like a chipmunk for the first 2s of using the mic before it starts working properly. It's pretty hilarious. So I advise you to test the mic on wifi using your most common voice communication app to see if there is any problem. Some app works perfectly from the get-go. Hopefully this is not the case when playing games. Bluetooth mic works perfectly though. * The bluetooth mode does not support Aptx-LL and Aptx-adaptive for low latency since the wifi is fast. * Since these earbuds are made for low latency for vr gaming, not for listening to music, so the music audio quality may not be up to your standards. It only support SBC, ACC, and LC3 which is fine for gaming. * Lack of any noise cancelations technology. This is an earbud with a niche purpose, for gaming. If you want an earbud for music, or an earbud with quality mic for conversion, look elsewhere. If it is for rhythm gaming, I advise getting a wired earbud with great sound quality instead.

Switching between devices was seamless and easy while testing the Soundcore VRP10 Wireless Earphones, thanks to the app or the dongle button. The built-in microphones kept communication clear, and there was no sound delay. I also appreciated the ability to answer calls without interrupting my gaming. Pros: - Can be connected to both a phone and a gaming console or VR headset at the same time - Customizable RGB lighting and EQ settings - High-quality audio output with supported codecs - The dongle design includes a pass-through port for convenience - Call management is seamless and doesn't interrupt gameplay Cons: - I did not observe any significant drawbacks during testing Overall, the Soundcore VRP10 Wireless Earphones are an excellent option for any gamer looking to enhance their audio experience beyond what a standard Bluetooth headset can offer. Whether a casual player or a dedicated enthusiast, these earphones provide practical features that elevate your gaming experience.

Los mejores audifononque he probado para jugar en el Playstation 5 conexion facil con el adpatador y via bluetooth muy facil con cualquier dispositivo la bateria dura bastante !! Su mejor cafacteristica es que se empareja con dos dispositivos simultaneamente y si estas jugando y los tienes conectados via bluetooth al movil prioroxa el sonido de llamada muy recomendables y mas baratos que los oficiales para ps5

After trying both the SteelSeries Arctis 7P and Sony Pulse 3D for my PS5, I found neither to be satisfactory. Despite the Arctis 7P’s popularity, I believe they are overrated and don’t live up to the hype. The Pulse 3D performed better in comparison, but neither pair could match the comfort and convenience I’ve grown accustomed to with AirPods. That’s when I decided to try the Soundcore earbuds, and they’ve proven to be almost perfect for my needs. If you prefer in-ear earbuds over over-ear headphones, these are an excellent option for gaming on the PS5. They offer incredibly low latency, and the sound quality is outstanding. However, there is one significant drawback: the battery life. While the case holds a decent charge, the earbuds themselves only last for about two hours of continuous use. If the built-in LED lights are left on, the battery life can drop to just over an hour. Thankfully, there is an option to turn off the lights, which helps extend the usage time. Overall, I think these Soundcore earbuds provide excellent value, especially considering their sound quality and low latency performance. I did notice they were available at AED 199 during a sale, but even at AED 323, they remain a good deal for what they offer. And the style goes with the PS5 aesthetics.

Excelente sonido tanto para música como para juegos, cumple lo que promete
