Overview
The P20i pairs 10mm bass-boosted drivers with a companion app carrying 22 EQ presets, so listeners tune the sound rather than accept a fixed signature. Bluetooth 5.3 and water resistance make it a daily-carry pick for commute or gym use.
Soundcore built its name on affordable true wireless earbuds, and the P20i leans into that with a bass-forward tune out of the box and app-based EQ swapping for anyone who wants a flatter mix instead. The 30-hour total playtime, 10 hours in the earbuds plus two charges from the case, covers a full week of commuting without a nightly top-up, and a 10-minute quick charge buys another 2 hours when the case gets left at home.
- 10mm bass-boosted drivers
- 22 EQ presets via Soundcore app
- 30-hour total battery with case
- Bluetooth 5.3, water-resistant, 2-mic AI calls
Who it's for
Good fit for commuters and gym-goers who want punchy bass and app control without spending on a flagship pair. Less suited to anyone chasing studio-neutral sound or active noise cancellation, neither of which this model offers.
Pros and cons
- Bass-heavy default tuning with app EQ to adjust it
- 30-hour total playtime with the charging case
- 10-minute quick charge adds 2 hours
- Compact case with a lanyard loop for carrying
- No active noise cancellation
- Water-resistant only, not rated for submersion
- App required to get the most out of EQ customization
Performance notes
The oversized 10mm drivers push a boosted low end by default, and the 22 EQ presets in the Soundcore app let that be dialed back for vocals or podcasts. Two microphones with an AI voice-pickup algorithm handle calls, and water resistance covers sweat and light rain rather than submersion.
