Qualia Mind and Qualia Focus are two popular nootropic supplements developed by Neurohacker Collective. They both contain a large number of nootropic supplements, but the first is almost two times more expensive than the other. Why is there such a price difference, and which supplement is better?
Qualia Mind Vs Qualia Focus
Neurohacker Collective is a respected brand in the nootropic industry that managed to develop two great but competing nootropic supplements.
If you do you a quick overview of Qualia Mind and Qualia Focus, you will struggle to see any significant difference between the two. Well, besides the pricing.
So, why did one brand develop two such similar supplements? Are there any differences between them? Let’s find out.
Qualia Mind
Qualia Mind is a nootropic supplement that contains a staggering 28 nootropic compounds. It is one of the most complex and advanced supplements ever designed.
Mind was developed to help people improve their cognitive performance. It is a popular supplement that many experts recommend.
Qualia Focus
Qualia Focus, on the other hand, contains 24 nootropic compounds, which is also quite incredible. It has a very similar formula to Qualia Mind, but it lacks 4 nootropics.
This difference makes Qualia Focus almost half cheaper. By decreasing the price, Neurohacker can target a completely different market with this supplement.
The question is if Qualia Mind is really worth the double price?
To answer the question, let’s have a look at the similarities between the supplements, and then continue with the differences.
The Similarities
As we mentioned before, Qualia Mind and Qualia Focus have quite a few similarities.

Based on our tests, both supplements deliver pretty much the same short-term effects.
They improve your focus, attention, motivation, and energy levels. Working becomes easier and more fun.
Honestly, it was hard to notice any difference in short-term effects when comparing the two.
The Differences
Well, Qualia Mind and Qualia Focus must have some differences, right?
1. Lack Of 4 Nootropics
Qualia Focus lacks 4 nootropics:
- Cognizin
- Phosphatidylserine
- DHA
- PQQ
These four compounds are mainly important for long-term performance, which is why you can’t really notice any difference in the short-term effects.
We imagine that they are quite expensive compounds (especially Cognizin), which is why Qualia Focus is much more affordable.
2. Pricing
As we mentioned before, Qualia Focus is almost half cheaper than Qualia Mind.
| Price | Servings | Price/serving | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Qualia Mind | $99 | 15 | $3.45 |
| Qualia Focus | $69 | 20 | $6.60 |
If you are tight on budget, Qualia Focus is a product to go for.
3. Long-Term Potential
Since Qualia Focus lacks a few essential nootropics, we assume that it will lack some long-term performance. It is hard to say how much, but if we had only looked at the long-term potential, there is no doubt we would go with Qualia Mind.
Our Recommendation
Based on our detailed comparison, we believe Qualia Mind is a better nootropic supplement. Yes, it is more expensive, but it contains a whole-range of must-use nootropics that we always recommend.
If you are on budget, Qualia Focus is a great alternative, but if you can afford Qualia Mind, look no further.
