How long does the battery last?

Soundcore rates the P42i at up to 12 hours of listening per charge. Real-world time drops with ANC on and at higher volume.

Does it work with iPhone?

Yes, over standard Bluetooth, but LDAC is Android-only. iPhone users get the standard AAC codec instead.

Active noise cancelling cuts steady low sounds like engine hum and air conditioning. It is not as deep as premium over-ear models.

The IP55 rating covers sweat and light rain, so gym and outdoor use are fine. Do not submerge it or rinse it under a tap.

Expect the earbuds, the charging case, a USB charging cable and spare ear tips in multiple sizes.

Both offer ANC and LDAC. The P42i claims longer single-charge battery life, while the Space A40 adds app-based EQ and a more compact case.
