I wear Anker's budget noise-canceling headphones every day for work—and they just hit a ridiculously low price

Forget spending hundreds on on top-end headphones for blocking out your co-workers in a noisy office. My beloved Anker Soundcore Q20i headphones are on sale for $40 (was $70) at Amazon.com.

In the UK, the Soundcore Q20i's are also down to £32 (was £50) at Amazon.co.uk for the Spring Deal Days sale.

Today's top Anker headset deal

The Soundcore Q20i headphones come in four distinct shades: black, white, blue, and pink (since I chiefly use them for work, I went for professional black).

They're comfortable, foldable, relatively lightweight, with a good sound quality that doesn't skimp on the bass. So, there's none of that tinniness you usually get from budget cans.

The Bluetooth headphones feature a 40-hour playtime, while I find the active noise-cancelation is excellent (my wife hates trying to talk to me when I've got these on).

On the left ear-cup is the power button and a noise-cancelation on/off button - by switching it off, you can extend the playtime to 60 hours.

On the right ear-cup, you'll find a broad volume rocker, and I have no issues hitting the right button every time thanks to the simple layout and textured central Play button.

Beneath these is the charging port and a 3.5mm audio jack, letting you use these wired as the aux cable comes in the box, too.

There's also some sort of Anker app integration which you may find useful for tinkering with the audio but I can honestly say I have never used once. For me, they worked well enough right out of the box.

Effectively, if you want a pair of commuter-friendly headphones that let you block out the noise of the office and conduct online meetings, these are an easy personal recommendation from me.
