These things are incredible! Got them specifically to replace my Pulse 3D headsets on my PS5 because the Pulse gets really uncomfortable after playing for long periods (it makes me sweat a lot). But these earbuds open up a whole new world for me! They give a noticeably richer sound than the Pulse 3D with deeper bass and more detailed mids and highs! 2 things that are an absolute MUST to get the best results:
1. Take the time to test out and find the right ear tips for you! This is vital because it creates the right seal to not only give you one of the best passive noise canceling I've ever experienced on an earbud (believe it or not it's almost as good as the active noise cancelling on my beats fit pros). But I cannot stress how important this is"¦ if the included set of 3 that comes in the box doesn't work, exchange them with the pair from your favorite earbuds or find some here on Amazon. Don't give up till you have the perfect fit for you. The medium set works perfect for me"¦ it gives me the best seal plus I can wear them for hours without issue making them much more comfortable than my Pulse 3D.

2. Another VERY IMPORTANT point that is an absolute must: Download the Soundcore app from the Google Playstore or Apple Store and create a custom EQ! If you don't know how, start by creating a "V" shape with the sliders as a base and then fine tune it to your liking thereafter by playing your favorite music on your phone while you adjust it. Trust me"¦ it's more than worth the effort and it will transform the sound of this thing because it straight up does not sound good out of the box and almost none of the preset EQ settings sound good either"¦ the closest to sounding ok is the "Rock" preset.

Once you do those 2 things you will be good to go! Absolute premium sound that in my honest opinion beats out the Pulse 3D and is cheaper too! I would even go as far as to say to even avoids the new Pulse Explore earbuds for these! Save your money and get these"¦ do the 2 mandatory things I stated above and thank me later!

As long as you set up on your phone using the app and get all the updates, the P10 work amazing with the Quest 3. No lag for the sound AT ALL. There isn't even see a millisecond of sound lag in any of the games. I use the usb-c dongle not pure Bluetooth.
It pairs automatically. They are comfy in my ears tho since they are the silicone bud ends with a few sizes to pick from- I doubt they'll fit everyone comfortably. Be aware if you have ears that tend to be uncomfortable with ear buds, these will be no good for you.
A++ for me. Good sound, good fit, comfortable, zero lag, easy and steady connection (with the dongle)

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.

Pros:
- Super easy plug-and-play dongle, Windows automatically sets it up, good to go in under a minute.
- Works as advertised! Lighting fast, there's NO detectable lag in gaming, whether VR or 2D.
- Great design, the buds and case look much more expensive than $70.
- Good amount of options on the Soundcore app.
- Good sound quality out of the box, but you can tune it with the app to be even better.
- Awesome purple LEDs on the buds. (Can be changed to a few other color options in the app.)
- Great battery life. They last longer than my longest VR gaming session ever would.

Cons
- You'll need to buy a USB-A male to USB-C female adapter if your PC doesn't already have a USB-C port.
- Not the most comfortable earbuds I've owned, but not the worst either.
- Sound levels on PC could be higher.

I have 2 other sets of wireless earbuds from Soundcore, the Liberty 3 Pro and the Life P3, both of which are great, but the Life P3 are very comfortable for longer periods, while I could never get the Liberty 3 Pro to fit comfortably no matter what I did. These VR P10 buds fall somewhere just behind the Life P3, where they feel comfortable at first, but after about an hour of play, they start to hurt my ears a bit. If I move them around a little, it will alleviate some of the discomfort, but you know how some earbuds are so comfortable that you might forget you have them on? Yeah, these never quite reach that point. On the plus side, they stay put and never feel like they're going to work their way out of my ear while playing VR games either, which is important. The discomfort could be from the shape of my ear, so they might be more comfortable (or less?) for other people.

Out of the box the sound quality is pretty good for music and gaming, although some might find it to be a little too flat, so I definitely recommend connecting them to your mobile device with the Soundcore app and tweaking the EQ to your taste, mostly when it comes to games. (Bump those low freq's up for gunfire and explosions.) You don't need to leave the Bluetooth connected between your phone and the VR P10's, they will remember the EQ settings even after you disconnect and switch to PC audio output. (For music, I always listen with a flat or no EQ, but I have better earbuds for music listening sessions. I got these specifically for VR gaming only.) My HMD is a Samsung Odyssey+, if you're wondering.

I really like the case design and the way the buds snap magnetically into the holding positions, and the white shell of the buds with silver accents make them look more expensive than they are. The LED's are freakin' dope too. (They can be disabled in the app if you're worried about battery life, but from what I've seen so far, they have little effect on battery drain.) The buds are a little slippery though, so make sure you got a grip on them whenever you are putting them away or taking them out of the case.

I got a couple of inexpensive USB-A to USB-C adapters, and when I plugged the VR P10 dongle in the adapter and then into my PC, Windows recognized the dongle within seconds, and soon after I was able to select it as an audio output from the sound popup in the taskbar. Easy peasy. No fiddling needed. The only downside is that the buds are a bit on the quiet side, and even though I don't have any hearing problems, I have to push the volume up past 80 to really hear everything while gaming, but to be fair, although 100 (full volume) is easily bearable, that's more than I would ever actually need, so it works out alright.

I absolutely love these for the dual connection. I bought a $5 usb-c to a adapter to plug the included dongle into my work computer, and now I can connect to it and to my phone at the same time. This way I can put in the earbuds when I get to work, then take video calls, watch work videos, listen to music, and watch youtube on my phone, all on those earbuds without ever having to take them out! And the battery life is good enough that I've never needed to stop what I was doing to put them in the case to charge. They last all day and then charge all night, and I occasionally plug the case in while I'm at work.

My only problem with these is the lack of transparency mode (which would let you hear your surroundings while using the earbuds). Using these mostly at work, I need to be able to hear if someone calls me. Not having a transparency mode means I usually only use one bud at a time.

The actual quality of the earbuds is pretty good, but not amazing. They do sound good and feel quality made, but they certainly aren't Apple or Bose. But then again, those companies don't have dual connection earbuds and they charge more than twice the price. I'd say these are 4-star earbuds that easily get bumped up to a 5 because of the included dongle and great price range.
