If you’re looking to grab a wallet-friendly pair of wireless headphones or restock your charging gear for the holidays, a few recent Amazon sales on Anker accessories may be of interest. Several of Anker’s Soundcore headphones, including a couple of top picks from our guide to the best budget wireless earbuds, are currently down to the lowest prices we’ve tracked, as are a handful of charging stations, cables, power banks and similar accessories. There’s a decent amount of discounts between the sales, but we’ll run through the highlights below.
This deal has been available for the past few days, but it brings the the top recommendation in our budget wireless earbuds guide back down to the all-time low we saw on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. The Soundcore Space A40 delivers a number of features we’d expect from more expensive pairs, including wireless charging, multi-device pairing, eight- to 10-hour battery life and, most notably, genuinely useful active noise cancellation (ANC). Its warm sound profile isn’t the most accurate we’ve tested, but it should be pleasing to most, and you can customize the EQ curve through the Soundcore app. Call quality is just OK, however, and playback won’t automatically pause when you remove an earbud.
The Soundcore Liberty 4 NC is the runner up in our budget earbuds guide, as it offers a highly similar feature set to the Soundcore Space A40 but comes in an AirPods-style “stem” design. It’s bulkier as a result, but some may find this shape easier to remove. It supports auto-pausing and has slightly more extensive touch controls as well, though the former can be finicky, and its more bass-heavy sound may not be to everyone’s liking. Right now the Liberty 4 NC is $30 off and down to $70, which is another all-time low we previously saw on Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
While the Soundcore Space Q45 isn’t a formal pick in any of our guides, it’s worth considering at this price if you want a set of over-ear noise-cancelers for less than $100. This $50 discount matches the best deal we’ve seen. The Space Q45’s adaptive ANC system can’t top the best wireless headphones on the market, but it’s good for the money, and its lively V-shaped sound should be fun for pop music. A comfy design and multi-device pairing also help. Mic quality is mediocre, however.
If you want a more affordable set of over-ears, the Soundcore Life Q30 is also worth a look at $56, though that pair isn’t as sturdily built and its default sound might be too bass-heavy for most tastes.
Moving onto to charging gear, the Anker 335 Wireless Charger is down to $17, which matches the lowest price we’ve seen. This is a three-in-one wireless charging station that can partially fold up and lets you refill a smartphone, Apple Watch and set of wireless earbuds at the same time. It’s not as fast as the best wireless chargers we’ve tested — maxing at 10W for Samsung phones, 7.5W for iPhones, and 5W for other devices — and you need to supply your own USB-A charging puck to use an Apple Watch. Larger iPhone 15 models may not fit, either. But if you can live with all of that and just want a way to passively top up your devices throughout the day, this is an affordable and travel-friendly way to make it happen.
A pick from our power bank buying guide, the Anker Nano is an ultracompact portable battery that can connect directly to a device through its built-in, foldable USB-C port. It has a capacity of 5,000mAh and supplies up to 22.5W of power — though some devices will get a bit less — so it’s best suited for emergency situations where you might need a quick refill but don’t want to carry around a heftier power bank. You’ll want to be gentle when attaching the connector, though. Right now the “shell white” version of the Nano is on sale for $21, which ties its best price to date.
If you have an older iPhone, the Lightning-based version of this charger is also discounted to a low of $20.
Among the rest, a two-pack of 10-foot USB-C to Lightning cables is down to a low of $20 for those willing to pay extra for a braided model. The compact 20W Anker 511 Charger is available for $12.59 with a 10 percent coupon, which is about a dollar more than the lowest price we’ve seen. And the 65W Anker 735 Charger can be had for $34 with a 15 percent coupon; that’s about $6 more than its best-ever price, but it’s a more powerful multiport model we recommend in our fast charger buying guide.
