The Soundcore Q31i falls to a record low of $64.99 on Amazon
Nov 12, 2026 — 9:52 AM ET
Anker has been steadily trimming the price of its newest budget over-ears, and they’ve just reached a new low. The Soundcore Q31i noise canceling headphones are now $64.99 on Amazon, which is $25 (28%) off the $89.99 list price and the lowest price they’ve sold for. When we spotted a deal on them in September, they were $79.99.
What stands out at this price is codec support. Plenty of budget headphones stick to SBC and AAC, but the Soundcore Q31i adds LDAC, so Android users with a compatible phone can stream higher quality audio over Bluetooth 6.0. Anker rates the noise canceling at up to 37dB of reduction, enough to take the edge off engine drone on a flight or chatter in a busy office.
Stamina is the other big draw. Anker quotes up to 50 hours of playback with noise canceling switched on and up to 80 hours with it off. Turning on LDAC alongside noise canceling brings that down to about 40 hours, which is still more than most people will need between charges. If you do run low, 10 minutes on the charger gets you about 10 hours of listening, and a full charge takes around two hours.
You can fine tune settings and install firmware updates through the Soundcore app. The Q31i holds a 4.4 star rating on Amazon, and it’s a nice step up for anyone currently using basic wireless headphones without noise canceling. At this price, the Soundcore Q31i also makes an easy holiday gift for a commuter or frequent flyer.
