Anker's Soundcore Life 2 Bluetooth headphones have dropped to just $39.99 at Newegg. This deal is part of Newegg's Shell Shocker daily discounts. It's a unique direct price drop because normally these headphones only drop this low through coupon codes and things like that. The last couple of deals we've seen used that method. The regular price for these headphones is around $65, and they go higher in some places. They're actually sold out in some places as well, which suggests new versions may be coming out since these released in 2019.

These over-ear Bluetooth headphones have active noise-cancelling and Hi-Res Audio. You can even use Anker's BassUp technology to deepen and intensify your favorite music. The active noise-cancelling reduces external noises and gives you a pure musical experience without the distractions of everyday life.

Bluetooth and ANC tend to take quite the toll on a headphone's battery life, but the thing that makes these headphones stand out is just how long the battery lasts. If you're using both Bluetooth and ANC, you should still be able to go 30 hours before needing to recharge. If you decide to go wired using the optional cable and just use the ANC, the battery can go for as long as 60 hours. That's an incredibly long amount of time to be wearing the same pair of headphones and listening to music. You can do it, though. I believe in you.

Beyond all that, the headphones also use memory foam cushions on the ear cups so they stay comfortable time and time again. And the headphones are foldable so you can fit them in the protective hard-shell travel case they come with.
