soundcore Anker Liberty 4 NC Bluetooth Headphones, Light Blue

I’ve been using the Liberty 4 NC for a while now, and they’ve quickly become my go to earbuds. The fit is comfortable even during long commutes and the adaptive noise cancelling really does a great job of blocking out background sounds on buses and in the office. I like that the sound is punchy with strong bass, but the app lets me tweak the EQ so I can balance it for podcasts or softer music. Battery life is excellent I can get through a full week of work without worrying, and wireless charging makes it easy to keep them topped up. The multipoint connection is a lifesaver when switching between my laptop and phone and transparency mode feels natural when I need to stay aware of my surroundings. The build feels solid, and even though the case is a little bulky, it adds durability and houses the impressive battery capacity. Calls come through clearly, and the Bluetooth 5.3 connection has been stable with no dropouts. I also appreciate the quick-charge feature, which gives me hours of playback from just a short charge. Overall, they deliver a premium experience without the premium price. They may not be the best choice for heavy workouts since they’re only splash resistant, but for commuting, office use and travel, they’ve been reliable, powerful and surprisingly versatile. They feel like a smart investment if you want strong ANC, customizable sound and long battery life without overspending.

Wow. What can I say? Exceeded my expectations. Fantastic sound quality, easy to pair and good noise cancellation feature.

Sound: 4.5/5 I listen primarily to Christian songs (alternative-pop), and Rock to Metal genres, which have a lot of heavy electric guitars and double pedal drums. So this review is limited. Strong and decent bass. It could be cleaner, but for the price, I couldn't ask for more Good and clear mids Highs are ok. It could be a bit cleaner. If you increase the EQ, it will produce a sharp-piercing sound. But it's not terrible. Overall, the sound is really good, especially considering the price. I have AirPods Pro 1, and I would prefer this over that for sound because of the fuller sound. AirPods Pro 1 however, wins in terms of cleaner highs, clear (but lacking) bass, and wider sound stage. Fit 4/5 It's bigger than the AirPods and not as snug to my ears. ANC 3/5 It has decent ANC but lacks, especially it does not block out mid-high frequencies well. For example, as I type this, I have a fan beside me. I can still hear it with this earbuds when there's no music, but Airpods Pro 1 completely eliminate that. Much for the 2nd generation. But hey, at this price point, Anker is giving us much more ANC than what we paid for. Quality 3.5/5 Feels better than average, but definitely not on the premium feel league Time will only tell about it's longevity Battery 5/5 Gives you more juice than AirPods Pro 1 in both the earbuds and the charging case. Couldn't ask for more. Charging case 3.5/5 Case is quite big, but still feels in my pocket. I love the light, though. P.S. When I bought this, Liberty 4 Pro is out, but based on the review, there's no improvement in the sound. And that's the primary reason why I'm buying this. Liberty 5 is also on the way, but based on the reviews, Liberty 4 NC sounds better. So I saved my money and got this.

The sound quality is top-notch, which is the most important thing when it comes to an earbud review. I've included the rest of the awesome stuff below, but I wanted to highlight a small drawback that takes nothing from the overall experience but should be highlighted: the case size. It's huge; it fits in my pocket but is way bigger than I expected. Now for the awesome stuff again: 1- Sound quality and noise cancelling are great, with various EQ options and a customized HearID profile, which is done based on a test and your hearing preferences. 2- The fit is great. I didn't try running or exercising while wearing them, but while working, they always stay in place, Also, they have various tips for different ear shapes. 3- Battery life is ridiculously great. I barely recharge the,m and they're always full. 4- Seamless 2 device connection: I connect it to my Android phone and my Apple Macbook, and it automatically switches between both, whichever is playing sound. 5- The App, where you can change absolutely anything. It is so advanced and so user-friendly that I customised what each side touch gesture does. 6- Maybe people don't care about this but you can completely turn-off the ANC, you also have transparent and voice mode, but I really love turning it off sometimes, it's more comfortable to me than transparent mode when I'm not playing anything (in the app it's called "Norma" mode). Things to note: 1-I turned off the Auto Play/Pause, Sound leak compensation, and 3D surround sound as they all, while high tech they didn't work well to me, specially the 3D sound felt like echoey sometimes. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a high-end earbud.

I recently bought this earbud, and I’m really impressed with its performance. The noise cancellation works extremely well, even in noisy environments. The music quality is clear, balanced, and powerful, with good bass and clarity. It fits comfortably in the ears and is perfect for music, calls, and daily use. Definitely worth the price and highly recommended for anyone looking for good sound quality and strong noise cancellation.

Sintesi: fantastiche con un solo paio di piccoli difetti, da acquistare! Pippone: vengo da anni di auricolari wireless budget senza ANC, ed inizialmente ero un po' restio all'acquisto vista la spesa; poi, con un coupon di Amazon, ho deciso di tentare l'acquisto, e devo dire che dopo quasi un mese di costante utilizzo sono estremamente soddisfatto! - Qualità audio: 5/5. L'app companion permette anche di configurare una sorta di equalizzatore personalizzato sul proprio udito e sulle frequenze meglio percepite, la distorsione è un fenomeno (nella mia esperienza di utilizzo) sconosciuto, anche al volume massimo. Unico neo, forse non sono gli auricolari più potenti che abbia provato (normalmente tengo il volume al 65-70%, talora oltre in ambienti particolarmente rumorosi, ma il cinesone che citavo all'inizio raggiungeva volumi più alti, seppur al costo di audio distorto, quindi direi che è una cosa di minimo peso). - Comfort: 5/5. Passi l'essere abituato da anni ad auricolari in-ear, ma temevo che il design di questo modello (simile più alle airpods che al tappo cui ero abituato) potesse dare fastidio sull'orecchio esterno; errore! L'"asticella" a stento si percepisce, e poi sono talmente comodi che si riescono a tenere per ore senza sensazione di fastidio (il mio record personale sono state 7 ore tra treno, metropolitana ed autobus). Io uso i gommini di default, ma in confezione forniscono altre misure. - Dotazione: oltre agli auricolari e alla loro custodia, la confezione contiene i suddetti gommini ed un cavo USB c-c; a mio avviso, tutto il necessario (considerata anche la possibilità di ricarica wireless). La custodia è molto compatta, entra facilmente in tasca assieme a cellulare o portafogli, e i magneti che tengono in posizione gli auricolari sono abbastanza forti da farmi dubitare che possano mai cadere anche se "incoraggiati". - Estetica: è un parametro estremamente soggettivo, io le trovo molto belle, ma non è stato il primo pensiero che mi ha convinto all'acquisto. - Facilità di utilizzo: aperta la custodia il telefono le riconosce immediatamente e chiede l'associazione tramite bluetooth; dopo la prima, basta estrarle dalla Custodia e metterli, si connettono immediatamente e vanno benissimo anche usati singolarmente. Il piccolo chime di accoppiamento viene riprodotto solo appena estratte dalla custodia, poi non interrompe più l'ascolto. L'app soundcore si scarica in un momento, si setta in ancora meno tempo, e permette un capillare controllo delle funzioni con grande semplicità. Tramite L'app, inoltre, si possono impostare le funzioni in risposta a tocco singolo, doppio, triplo e prolungato, su ciascun auricolare, per un totale di 8 comandi a portata di mano senza dover interagire col telefono. Questi comandi sono abbastanza responsivi ad un tocco leggero, magari avrei gradito una minor latenza tra i "click" (un doppio clic troppo veloce viene registrato come singolo), ma come sopra, è una preferenza soggettiva. Unico neo in questo paragrafo, sarà un mio limite, ma pare non si possano usare i controlli touch per rispondere o rifiutare le chiamate in entrata. Non è una catastrofe, ma sarebbe molto bello riuscirci. - ANC: 5/5. mai provato fino ad adesso, e non so come abbia fatto a farne a meno! Perfetto per ridurre il rumore di fondo del treno, dell'autobus, o anche dei lavori nel palazzo di fianco (occhio: ridurre, non azzerare), al modico prezzo di "tagliare" un po' delle frequenze più basse dalle vostre tracce. Io talora lo uso anche senza ascoltare nulla per ridurre il rumore di fondo e devo dire che è una funzione fantastica, e che fa il suo lavoro egregiamente. - Batteria: altro punto spesso dolente, non in questo caso! Durante il tragitto di 7 ore citato precedentemente gli auricolari hanno continuato a funzionare senza battere ciglio, e la custodia li ha ricaricati nel giro di 30 minuti perdendo (a detta dell'app) circa. Il 10% della propria carica. Altro piccolissimo neo, L'app non mostra una percentuale di carica, ma solo un'icona di batteria con le tacche all'interno. Avrei gradito una percentuale, ma è un dato senza il quale si vive ugualmente. Conclusioni: se cercate degli auricolari con grande batteria, ottimo audio seppur non troppo potente, e ANC, questi sono una grande opzione, li consiglio caldissimamente!

These are really very good! I had the 40i's before changing to these and there's a massive improvement in the noise cancelling. I usually walk a few miles through traffic, and other town noises, and with these I can barely hear anything now! Far superior to the 40i's and also they have a much riser sound as well, more bass but not too heavy, and as always with this brand battery life is excellent and the fit perfectly too 👍 highly recommended.

Great sound, very comfortable, buds straight out of case fit my ears nicely (mine tend to smaller-regular size), stay in ears well, nice looking and great price point. Other side silicone ear fittings come with set with standard size doesn't fit purchaser.

Amazing in many aspects, would not surprise me if they were best in class (at least at the sales price point of 55€ I got them at), with a few small areas of improvement. These earphones have long battery life - even with ANC on-, sit perfectly in my ears - fine for most sports and even to hear an podcast to sleep-, and they have a good audio profile for in ears, with lots of detail. Areas of improvement: * at least with mine, the battery level of the case behaves highly problematic. It stays at >= 40% for a long time, and then drastically drops. Since the in ears themselfes hold so much charge, and that level still is enough to charge them up this has not been problematic for me, but so far that issue has remained. I was hoping it'd fix itself after 1-2 cycles, but at best it's gotten slightly better. Perhaps I'll ask for support on that. * the ANC is okay. Nothing to write a poem about, though in fairness, it also doesn't have any of the pressure feeling that ANC sometimes has. It reduces most environment noise, but it's still present. Wind noise suppression doesn't always work, seemingly depending on the angle of the wind. * the app takes long to load (or rather it takes some time until you can interact with the settings) when you open it, which makes it a bit annoying if you want to change settings you can't with the built in controls. * wear detection operates a bit slow * the case is satisfying to play with, and fits well in my - male - pockets. However the button to open it is difficult to operatewithout blocking the lid from opening - since it's right next to each other. You can open the case without the button, though it's not designed for that, but that's what I usually do instead of finangling my thumb to have the right angle * I list this as a separate point, though it is connected to the previous. The upper lid is rather large, which makes it more annoying to work with that case when it's open, compared with competitors. Although, this might also allow for the easy insertion of the in-ears into the case, so I guess it's a trade off.

After testing the product out for a couple of days, I am in love. These fit comfortably in the ear, although they may slip out when it gets a bit dirty or when you bend down. The earbuds however have very strong magnets and won't fall out when falling. The case is a bit chunky, but I did not mind as it still fits in my pocket. I love the opening mechanism of the case, it's fun to fidget with. Moving on to the sound quality, I was surprised at how good it was. The hear ID equalizer makes a great difference, and the sound is very adjustable to your liking. The call quality is definitely an improvement from my previous earbuds, and I can easily talk in windy weather and noisy environments for the recipient to understand me. What was a deal breaker to me was the noise canceling function during wind, as I live in a pretty windy area. You have to turn on the wind canceling on, but only once. You can barely hear the wind. I've heard complaints about the transparency mode, which I agree is not so great but also not needed to be honest. Extra details include: - audio automatically stops when you take off one ear, which takes a bit like 3 seconds - battery is amazing, I used it for a day and it has only gone down by 10% - noise canceling amazing, can't hear surrounding conversations around me when audio turned on - touch function is a bit sensitive, and double/triple tapping is a bit inconvenient as it often does not pick up as separate commands. Overall, great quality for the price but some functionality is a minor inconvenience which i can get over for this price.
