it\u2019s not always convenient to hold the right cup for a couple of seconds, it\u2019s better to use this functionality on a button, but that\u2019s such nitpicking.<\/p>\n<p>I will add a plus for those who work in headphones with sound &#8211; there is the possibility of connecting via cable, which will be appreciated by both stage monitors and sound people.\u00a0What is there, and gamers with filmmakers too.\u00a0By the way, at the expense of gamers &#8211; games sound very atmospheric here, I could even recommend these headphones as gaming due to their softness.<\/p>\n<h3>Autonomy<\/h3>\n<p>Since these headphones are made by the manufacturer of the best\u00a0power banks\u00a0in the world, there is complete order with autonomy.\u00a0Without ANC Life Tune is played for 60 hours!\u00a0And with 40 noise reduction. Both results are just excellent, despite the fact that they are fully charged in 2 hours.\u00a0Fast charging is also supported in 5 minutes for 4 hours of listening.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Soundcore-Life-Tune.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-131154\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Soundcore-Life-Tune.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"810\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Soundcore-Life-Tune.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Soundcore-Life-Tune-711x377.jpg 711w, https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Soundcore-Life-Tune-800x425.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Soundcore-Life-Tune-770x409.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Soundcore-Life-Tune-260x138.jpg 260w, https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Soundcore-Life-Tune-737x391.jpg 737w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 810px) 100vw, 810px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>And so we got to the cost of the entire Soundcore Life Tune. For headphones with a pleasant soft sound, excellent appearance, ergonomics, good ANC, almost record autonomy and a cool microphone, the manufacturer asks for even less than $ 100. Sorry, but this is nonsense! 5 out of 6 and an extreme purchase recommendation while these headphones are in stock!<\/p>\n<p>More info at <a href=\"https:\/\/us.soundcore.com\/collections\/frontpage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.soundcore.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the first time, I want to give a prize for an adequate name\u00a0to Anker headphones\u00a0.\u00a0This time we have not some Anker Soundcore ANC Life Dot Pro 2 Elite Good Bad, but just a Soundcore Life Tune.\u00a0But, as before, any new Anker headphones are a great product.\u00a0So it happened with the novelty.\u00a0In the review, we [&hellip;] <a class=\"g1-link g1-link-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/headphones\/soundcore-life-tune-review-excellent-headphones-at-a-low-price\/\">More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10404,"featured_media":131161,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[640],"tags":[778],"class_list":{"0":"post-131153","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headphones","8":"tag-reviews"},"acf":[],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131153","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10404"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131153"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131153\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/131161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131153"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=131153"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=131153"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
