Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to break the bank or empty your wallet to find a well-designed pair of true wireless earbuds. Apple's AirPods may look and sound fantastic, but they're also quite expensive. You can always sift through some of the AirPods deals, or wait for a good one if there's a specific model you want. You can also check out general headphone deals to see if there are any alternatives you're interested in. Sometimes, it's also better to go with a fan-favorite, or rather a highly-praised alternative, like Anker's Soundcore Life P2 true wireless earbuds.

Over 53,000 global reviewers have awarded the Soundcore Life P2 wireless earbuds 5-stars on Amazon, a perfect score. They're firmly rated 4.5-stars out of over 87,000 global reviews total. We'll explore in more detail why that is, and what some of those reviewers have said, below. Right now, you might be more interested to know you can grab them in all-black for $45 with free shipping and returns. You can also grab the mint green or all-white variants for $50, with free shipping. Either way, that's a great price versus the standard price of Apple's fancy earbuds.
