Anker Soundcore P30i

The Anker Soundcore P30i and the CMF Buds 2 by Nothing are both contemporary in-ear wireless headphones released in 2024, sharing an IP54 rating for durability and featuring integrated microphones. A key distinction lies in connectivity standards, as the Soundcore P30i utilizes the newer Bluetooth 5.4, potentially offering a more stable connection compared to the CMF Buds 2's Bluetooth 5.3. Regarding power, the Anker model generally offers slightly less playtime on a single charge (10 hours vs. 8 hours), although both support fast charging and boast similar total battery life with their cases, with the CMF model reaching up to 55 hours max playtime. While both support wired connections (only the P30i explicitly lists this), consumers prioritizing the absolute latest connectivity technology might lean toward the Soundcore P30i, whereas the CMF Buds 2 offers marginally better case longevity in maximum use scenarios.
