Package Content & Design
soundcore R50i comes with a well-protected package just like other Anker products. Below are the quick start guide & safe info in multiple languages, 2 additional pair of ear tips (L & S) and USB-C charging cable.
And here is the small charging case with a lanyard. There is a LED light indicator in the front and the USB-C port is at the back.
Meet soundcore R50i True Wireless Earbuds. Excellent build quality as usual. It is loaded with glossy body with matte surface bar. Small in size and lightweight. FYI, the soundcore logo is the touch-able multi-function button.
Fit & Comfort
Fit is great. They hold well on the ears too. So not to worry dropping them during exercise. And it is comfortable to wear them for long hours. However, it does take some time to get perfect fit (well, at least for me). Don’t forget that it is loaded with IPX5 waterproof as well. Lastly, the passive isolation is excellent once you get the perfect seal. Yes, it does block some of the environment noises.
Performance Result
Wow! It can connect up to 10m with obstacles like walls. Outstanding Bluetooth 5.3 range indeed. Furthermore, audio and video are virtually in sync thanks to the lower latency AAC codec. It has better sound quality too. That’s not all. It is loaded with an even lower latency gaming mode. Never lost a match then. FYI, you can use soundcore R50i as stereo or mono.
Phone calls are loud and clear. Surely a pleasure to use R50i for meetings, calls and so on. The AI-enhanced clear call technology really helps here. As for battery life, it can last for 10 hours on single charge based on specs. Up to 30 hours with the charging case. It will cover your busy lifestyle no doubt.
Sound Quality
Crisp and clear treble with amazing bass! Yup, this is what you get from soundcore R50i by Anker. That’s based on soundcore Signature. You can further enhance the bass with BassUp option too. What do you need to do? Install the soundcore application from App Store or Play Store. Yes, available on both Android and iOS devices. Unleash 22 preset EQs there. And a lot of other goodies as well.
Enjoy the clarity from the highs. Bright yet well in control. No harshness at all. Both female and male vocals sound nice. Clear and natural. Bass is great (must have perfect seal).
