Our Verdict
Anker Soundcore Life Q35 Wireless
Anker Soundcore Space Q45 Wireless
The Anker Soundcore Space Q45 Wireless are the next generation of the Anker Soundcore Life Q35 Wireless. Unlike the previous generation, the Q45 have an adaptive ANC system instead of three ANC presets, and overall, are significantly better at isolating you from ambient noise than their predecessor. Their headband padding is a bit thinner, and even though they're advertised to last 50 hours continuously, we measured just under 28 hours.
