It’s not every day you come across wireless headphones that try to deliver more than what their price suggests. The Ankbit E600Pro is one of those rare budget Bluetooth pairs, currently listed at $66.59. If you’ve been browsing Amazon recently, chances are you’ve seen them — the positive reviews and solid star ratings have helped Ankbit stand out. Naturally, I had to take a closer look.

Design and Build
From the moment I unboxed them, the Ankbit E600Pro felt a notch above the usual budget fare. The matte black plastic frame is sturdy, accented with metallic gold rings that give it a refined touch. It doesn’t feel cheap, nor does it try too hard.
The headband is softly padded, and the earcups are generously cushioned — big enough to sit over the ears without pressing down, yet tight enough to feel secure. This is the kind of design I wish more premium models would adopt.
Features and Controls
Inside each earcup sits a 40mm dynamic driver. It delivers a full sound, but there’s limited space for volume boosting. For active noise cancellation, Ankbit packed in 5 microphones and dual noise-reduction chips. It’s not the most aggressive ANC I’ve tried, but it performs reasonably well given the price.
There’s no ambient sound mode, and you won’t find an app for tweaking EQs. Touch controls are also absent, but the physical buttons respond instantly and feel reassuringly tactile.
Connectivity
Bluetooth 5.1 keeps things stable, and multipoint pairing is supported. Switching between devices is smooth, with no noticeable dropouts. Codec support includes AAC, aptX, and aptX HD — a rare trio at this price. The pairing process is quick, and once connected, the signal remains rock solid.
Battery Life
If there’s one area where the E600Pro truly excels, it’s endurance. With ANC turned off, you’re looking at up to 80 hours of playback. Turn ANC on, and you still get an impressive 45 hours.
That’s well beyond what most competitors in this segment offer, and even rivals a few high-end models.
Soundstage and Imaging
Budget headphones aren’t known for spatial finesse, but the E600Pro manages to create a decent sense of scale. It doesn’t offer a wide stereo field — most elements lean toward the center — but there’s a good sense of vertical layering. Vocals and instruments feel properly elevated in the mix, avoiding the flatness that often plagues cheaper sets. While the left-right separation isn’t particularly strong, the imaging is still cleaner than expected.
Bass Performance
The E600Pro leans into its bass. That’s where most of the energy comes from, and it does a solid job creating a full, satisfying low-end. Sub-bass and mid-bass work well together, offering punch and presence without becoming muddy. The texture is smooth, with a sense of weight that grounds the entire sound signature. While the bass isn’t lightning-fast, it delivers a rich and immersive layer that enhances everything else.
Midrange Clarity
This is where things get a bit uneven. Vocals come through strong and clear — there’s a noticeable forwardness that helps singers stand out. However, the rest of the midrange doesn’t share that clarity. Instruments often sound veiled or recessed, lacking the precision needed for complex arrangements. There’s life in the low mids, but the upper mids leave something to be desired.
Treble Detail
Despite some dips in the high frequencies, the treble brings a touch of brightness to the overall sound. There’s just enough sparkle to add definition, especially compared to the more muted mids. Occasionally, high-pitched sounds can become slightly sharp, but never to the point of harshness. If you’re sensitive to treble, you may want to test them first — but for most listeners, the top end adds a welcome crispness.
Final Thoughts
The Ankbit E600Pro brings a lot to the table for a sub-$100 pair of Bluetooth headphones. The massive battery life alone makes it worth considering, and the inclusion of multipoint pairing adds real day-to-day convenience. If you’re after deep bass and strong vocal clarity without a bunch of gimmicks or extra software, these are an excellent pick.
The lack of app support and narrow stereo image hold it back slightly, but they’re not dealbreakers. For what you pay, the E600Pro punches well above its weight.
