Soundcore P41i Launching Soon in Nepal: TWS Earphone Thats Also a Power Bank

Soundcore, a sub-brand of Anker, specializes in audio gear like wireless earbuds, headphones, and speakers. Anker itself is best known for its charging accessories and power banks.

But what if you could get the best of both worlds in a single device? That’s exactly what the Soundcore P41i aims to deliver.

What is the Price of the Soundcore P41i in Nepal?

Soundcore P41i has not made its official debut in Nepal, so its price is all speculation. That said, the Soundcore P41i price in Nepal could be in the range of Rs. 9,999.

Soundcore and Anker have both carved out strong reputations in their own spaces: Soundcore with reliable audio gear, and Anker with dependable charging accessories.

With the Soundcore P41i, you’re essentially getting the best of both worlds: a capable pair of earbuds paired with a handy portable charger. But the big question is, does this hybrid design bring real-world benefits, or is it just another marketing gimmick?

Let’s find out by taking a closer look at the Soundcore P41i.

Soundcore P41i Overview

Design

The Soundcore P41i does not look like your typical wireless earphone. Being a wireless earbud first and a portable phone charger second, the case is noticeably larger than most competitors, and you’ll definitely feel that extra bulk in your pocket. To give you a better sense of scale, it’s closer to the size of a credit card, just thicker.

At first glance, the case seems to have a lanyard attached, but in reality, that’s a built-in USB-C cable that tucks neatly into the body and doubles as a charging cord for your phone or other devices. On the front, there’s a compact display that shows charging status, battery levels, and Bluetooth connection info.

Speaking of the lid, it folds upward to reveal the earbuds sitting in place. Unlike the earbuds, which have an IPX5 rating, the case doesn’t seem to carry any water resistance rating.

The earbuds, on the other hand, feature a stemmed in-ear design. The stems carry the Soundcore logo and integrate touch sensors for controls.

Audio and Features

Each earbud of the Soundcore P41i is equipped with an 11mm audio driver. Soundcore claims the larger drivers help push out deeper lows without muddying the mids.

The earbuds also come with Adaptive ANC, which continuously monitors your surroundings and applies real-time algorithms to cancel out background noise. This setup is backed by six microphones with AI-powered noise reduction, a system similar to what Soundcore uses on its over-ear Space One Pro headphones.

Beyond the hardware, the Soundcore app unlocks a wide range of customization options. Available on both Google Play and the App Store, the app lets you fine-tune the ANC levels, tweak EQ presets, and explore additional features like Gaming Mode, Transparency Mode, and multipoint device controls.

Battery and Connectivity

The earbuds themselves carry a 60mAh battery per side, offering up to 12 hours of playback with ANC off and around 10 hours with ANC on. A quick 10-minute top-up through the case can give you as much as 5 extra hours of listening, which is impressive for short pit stops.

The real stamina, however, comes from the charging case. With its 3,000mAh capacity, total playback time shoots up to a massive 192 hours with ANC off or 160 hours with ANC on, far beyond what most TWS cases can provide.

On the connectivity side, the P41i supports Bluetooth 5.3 with Multipoint pairing, making it easy to switch between your phone, laptop, or tablet. There’s also One-Touch Pairing for seamless connection to Android devices right out of the box.

But the case isn’t just about earbuds. Doubling as a 10W power bank, it can give your phone an emergency boost. According to Soundcore, it can recharge an iPhone 16 Pro, Galaxy S24, or Pixel 8 to around 30% in about 40 minutes, while the iPhone 14 Pro reaches the same mark in roughly 30 minutes.

Soundcore P41i Price in Nepal and Availability

The Soundcore P41i price in Nepal could be Rs. 9,999.This figure reflects its US pricing, as the phone has yet to officially launch in the country.

At first, I thought the idea of a wireless earbud case doubling as a power bank was nothing more than a gimmick. But after giving it some thought, there is a practical use case: it can provide your phone with that last-minute boost when the battery is running dangerously low. The 3,000mAh capacity is respectable, but the 10W charging speed feels underwhelming, especially if you use phones with higher charging speeds.

If Soundcore had managed to bump up the charging speeds, the P41i could have stood out as a truly unique hybrid device. As it stands, though, the feature feels more like a backup option than a selling point. Useful in a pinch, but still leaning closer to the gimmick side of the spectrum.
