Do you like cheap training buds that don’t sound badly? That’s why we’re so excited about Soundcore’s latest release, the Sport X10. The new wireless headphones, at least according to Soundcore’s parent company Anker, not only have more bass than ever before, but also have a unique earhook design that is said to provide a safer fit than ever before. ..
Soundcore is famous for creating great value by running headphones. Its Soundcore Spirit X2 buds are mounted near the top of the best performing headphone Roundup due to A) a tight fit, B) a good sound profile, and C) a long battery life. That said, Spirit X2 was released nearly two years ago. This is a wearable year life.
The Soundcore Sport X10 buds are intended to replace the Spirit X2 by providing more features and more without raising the RRP too much. Now, the new buds are expensive, but less than half the cost of premium workout headphones such as the Beats Powerbeats Pro with similar earhook designs.

Soundcore Sport X10: Get hooked
The short top here is a unique rotary earhook design. I didn’t have a chance to try them out, but the way I imagine the mechanism based on the photos is similar to how JOBY’s GorillaPod works. Wrap the hook around your ear for a personalized fit.
The arm is covered with a soft silicone material and I hope it’s as soft to the touch as the Jabra Elite 7 Active. Despite the probably heavier earhook design, the Sport X10 weighs only 4.4 grams per earphone. Compare this to 20 grams of Powerbeats Pro. Another nice thing about foldable hooks is that you can make the case smaller. Well, at least we hope it’s small anyway.
The Sport X10 is said to offer spades in the base division. This shouldn’t surprise anyone, as Anker’s buds are well known for their bass. Wireless headphones leverage a 10mm dynamic driver with BassUp technology to provide a “high-precision, bass-forward sound profile,” Soundcore says.
With the integration of the AAC / SBC HD audio codec and high-sensitivity driver, the Sport X10 is also said to create an “immersive sound stage while achieving a balanced mix of deep bass and crisp treble.” increase. Bass EQ settings can be adjusted in the Soundcore app. There are also 22 EQ presets and 9 band custom EQ settings here.

The Sport X10 buds are IPX7 sweat and water resistant thanks to Anker’s unique SweatGuard technology. In fact, after a workout, you can wash your headphones under the tap. It was neat.
In terms of battery life, the Sport X10 delivers up to 8 hours of battery life on a single charge and up to 32 hours of playback time in the charging case. There is also a quick charge. It can be played for 2 hours with just 10 minutes of charging.
Soundcore’s SportX10 earphones have six microphones and a wind noise reduction feature (found in the Soundcore app) that provides better call quality even if you’re trying to make a business call during a hurricane. There is also a transparency mode if you are interested.
