Our take on the Soundcore A40 Adaptive Active Noise Cancelling Earbuds

The Soundcore A40 are true wireless earbuds with adaptive active noise cancelling that adjusts to your surroundings. They are light at about 0.04 oz per bud and run up to 10 hours on a charge with ANC on. Reviewers rate the noise cancelling and fit well for the money, though the app and touch controls draw some complaints. They sit below premium buds like the AirPods Pro on call quality and transparency, but undercut most ANC rivals on value.
