We’ve purchased the product and are waiting for it to arrive in our lab.
Interested to see how these compare to the Anker Space A40 buds.
Can you compare them with Anker liberty 4 NC pls ? Thx :)

Unfortunately, we only have a few testers testing products at once. So when we have a large number of products in the lab, it can take us a bit longer to test all the products we’ve purchased. In this case, we still have two other headphones to finish testing before we can begin this one. Sorry about that!
Our testers have started testing this product; is there anything specific you’re looking to see? Let us know in this thread.
Those noise cancellation numbers in the early access data are just weird. I don’t think anyone expected full range numbers to be worse than common scenarios. I wonder if wind noise reduction was on during the test - I know Soundcore headphones often implement wind noise reduction by turning down ANC when they detect wind, and maybe the pink noise in the full range test is detected as wind.

So I just got the p40is and I think your testing is either flawed or the firmware update my headphones did helped with ANC. I tested frequencies from 10-500hz and I saw a huge drop in volume across them all(at least 10db if not 20db). 10hz for example i can’t even hear with the headphones ANC on with no audio playing. But your graph shows no ANC db drop below 500hz on the p40i. The earbuds are a strange oval shape on these so maybe fitment was an issue? Either way, ANC is better than the graph shows here(so long as your ear fitment is decent). For clarification I’m using auto mode so it adjusts depending on how loud the environment is with wind noise reduction enabled.

Thank you for letting us know, we will look into the latest firmware for the P40i. We will update the review if required.
Update: We’ve updated the Noise Isolation - Full Range, Common Scenarios, Voice Handling, and ANC Wind Handling sections following an update to firmware 01.67.
