Liberty 4 Pro by Anker Noise Cancelling Wireless Earbuds

My old wireless earbuds bit the dust, so I started shopping around and comparing and took a chance on the Liberty 4 Pro. I ordered them knowing that they would not sound as good as my wired balanced earbuds and was willing to live with that. I was wrong. Completely wrong. These not only sound as good as my wired, but much better. I haven't used the wired earbuds since I got the Liberty 4 Pro. The LDAC codec works great with my devices. The Soundcore app is amazing. You can customize everything about the earbuds except the color. On the app there is a Preference Test. This plays short samples of music where you can choose between A and B as to which sound you like best. It repeats this a number of times. At the end it figures out "your" best sound preference. I did this and haven't tinkered with the EQ once because the EQ it figured out for me was perfect. And, to my great pleasure, I found that this preference stays with the buds even if I'm using a different device with them. I can change this if I ever decide to, but it ain't broke so I'm not gonna fix it. I was actually taken aback by the Active Noise Cancellation. I was on a noisy bus when I first tried it out. When I put the buds in my ears and turned on the ANC I thought I had lost my hearing for a few seconds until I realized that it was the ANC kicking in. It was that effective. I could have heard a pin drop (except for the fact that the ANC would have probably cancelled out the sound of the pin dropping). It made quite a difference on my bus ride -- listening to only the pure sound of the music. Just to make sure I was still in the real world, I turned on the transparency mode and could hear every yapper and bouncy bus noise again (so I went back to ANC). Regarding the sound, the bass is strong and powerful, but not at the expense of the mids or highs. I get a solid base sound without feeling that my skull is being pummeled. The mids are very clear and the vocals come through strong. The highs are crisp and clear without harshness. Overall, a great sound. I've also been impressed with how the instruments are separated and I get a 3 dimensional sound to the music. Sometimes I feel like I could point to where the musicians were sitting in the room when they recorded it. Finally, they are the most comfortable earbuds I have ever tried. Normally I have to futz around with different tips or buy expensive tips from other companies to get the right fit. Then, I have to shove them half way up into my ear canal to get a decent seal (and even then I have to re-adjust frequently). Needless to say, it gets uncomfortable after about 20 minutes or so. With the Liberty 4 Pro, there are SIX sets of tips in the box from XXS to XL. After doing "Eeny, meeny, miny, moe", I chose the XL size. For me, this was a perfect fit. I gently placed the buds in my ear (not ear canal) and there was a perfect seal. Since these were resting in my ear and not shoved up into it, there was no discomfort of any kind. I can wear them for hours (and have) without any attention on them. I had thought this would never happen. Final finally, the customer service is also way beyond what I expected. I had a problem with getting the app to work on one of my devices, so I shot off a customer support request from their website. They answered back within 24 hours to tell me that there was a new update of the app that fixed this problem. I downloaded it and there is no problem. I had a query on something else and sent a request and was answered (with query resolved) again within 24 hours. Amazing. My recommendation is, click these into your cart and proceed to checkout.

I’m a 43-year-old guy with decent hearing, no major loss, just some natural decline with age, and I use earbuds daily for running, working out, housework, calls, and the occasional moment of peace from the chaos of parenting. I previously used the Soundcore P3 earbuds, which I really liked, but I lost one of them and needed a replacement. After some research, I landed on the Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro, and I’m genuinely impressed with how much of an upgrade these are across the board. Sound and Noise Cancellation The sound quality is fantastic. Music and podcasts come through loud, crisp, and full of detail. Bass is strong but not overwhelming, and vocals are clear and clean. Whether I’m zoning out during a treadmill run or catching up on a podcast while folding laundry, I never have to crank the volume just to hear what’s going on. The adaptive noise cancelling (ANC) is a huge highlight. It automatically adjusts to your environment, and you can also manually choose from ten levels of noise cancellation in the app or case. I’ve set it up so I use: - Passthrough mode for outdoor runs (so I can still hear traffic), - Full ANC for the gym or treadmill, - And sometimes just to block out the kids and grab a little quiet. - The transitions between modes are smooth, and the app makes it easy to switch. Fit and Comfort Right out of the box, the default tips fit well, but Anker includes five extra sizes, which is a nice touch. The earbuds have stayed in place securely during my runs and gym sessions, no slipping or loosening at all. They’re also surprisingly comfortable even for extended wear. No ear fatigue after hours of use. Controls and Customization The physical buttons are one of my favorite features. My old P3s used touch controls, and I was always accidentally changing songs or adjusting volume with a brush of my hand. These mechanical buttons are much more precise, no more accidental skips mid-run. I customized the controls using the Soundcore app: - Long press: Switch between passthrough and full ANC - Single tap: Volume up (right) / Volume down (left) - Double tap: Play/pause - Triple tap: Next (right) / Previous track (left) Everything is responsive, and I love that I can tailor it exactly to how I use the earbuds. App Integration The Soundcore app adds a lot of functionality. Besides ANC and button customization, I ran the sound test (HearID) to personalize the audio to my hearing. It made a subtle but noticeable difference in clarity and balance. The app also lets you check battery levels, change EQ settings, and get firmware updates. Call Quality I made a call while doing dishes, with water running in the background, and my wife said she couldn’t hear the water at all. I could hear her clearly, too. The six-mic setup with AI noise reduction clearly works, these are some of the best call-quality earbuds I’ve used. Battery Life and Charging Battery life is solid. I used them for about 4 hours straight, 2 hours of full ANC on the treadmill and 2 hours of housework, and they only dropped from 100% to 35%. That's impressive considering ANC was on the entire time. The fast charging is also a win. A quick 10-minute top-up gives me plenty of use time. The case has a digital readout showing the battery percentage, which is way more useful than trying to guess from a blinking light. Maybe I'm old, and this feature is standard, but when I take one of the earbuds, it pauses what I'm listening to, then when I put it back, it starts again. I thought that was a cool feature. What’s in the Box Inside the package: - The earbuds and charging case (USB-A to USB-C) - Five extra sets of tips for different ear sizes - A USB-A to USB-C cable - An instruction manual Drawbacks The charging case is a little larger than I’m used to. It’s still pocketable, but definitely bulkier than the P3’s case. The sliding mechanism on the case lid takes a little getting used to. It’s secure, but feels different than the usual flip-top design. While I prefer the physical buttons to touch controls, I do wonder how well they’ll hold up long term with repeated use. So far, though, they’re working great. The charging cable they include is very short. It’s fine if you’re plugging into a laptop, but less convenient if your outlet is lower on the wall or further away. Final Verdict If you're someone who’s active, listens to music and podcasts daily, takes calls on the go, and values sound quality, noise cancellation, and control customization, these are a fantastic choice. They’re a definite step up from the P3s and hold their own against higher-end earbuds at a much more reasonable price. Would highly recommend, especially if you're looking for earbuds that can keep up with both your workouts and your everyday life.

I use these Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro earbuds a lot. They have basically become my everyday carry earbuds. I use them while shopping, mowing, traveling, taking phone calls, and listening to music and podcasts. The sound quality is very good. I have not even adjusted the EQ because the default sound works well for me. Podcasts sound great, and music sounds very good too. They do have a slightly heavier bass by default, which I personally like. The noise cancelling is also very good, especially with steady background noise. They work really well with things like lawn mower noise and airplane noise. They are more average when it comes to blocking voices, but that seems pretty normal for earbuds. Call quality has been excellent. I asked my wife and a buddy if they could tell I was using earbuds, and neither of them even realized I was talking through them. That is probably one of the biggest positives for me. Comfort is also very good. I have sensitive ears, and all earbuds eventually bother me if I wear them long enough. Over-the-ear headphones are still the most comfortable option for me, but these are probably the most comfortable earbuds I have worn. I would put them right up there with AirPods for comfort. Battery life has been great for my typical use. I can go about 3 to 4 weeks without needing to charge the case. The case itself is unique and one of my favorite parts. It slides open and shows a screen with the charge level of each earbud. The front slider for adjusting ANC is also convenient and actually useful. The only real downside for me is that the case is a little bigger than I would prefer. I can still carry it in my front pocket, but it is not as compact as some other earbud cases. Overall, I like these earbuds a lot. I liked them enough that I bought my wife a pair about a month later. Anker is a brand I buy often, and these are another strong product from them. I am giving them 4 stars only because my Sony over-the-ear headphones are my perfect 5-star option, but these are excellent earbuds for the price, especially when they are on sale.

Background: I’m in my mid-60’s and have been loving listening to music my whole life. I still use my Akai turntable from high school! My “main driver” speakers are Bose 901s. I have other NC headphones, Bose QuietComfort and Sony WH1000XM3. But sometimes I want earbuds. I have a pair of JBL Tune 125TWS earbuds, which are fine but not NC. I use Spotify, PowerAmp (Android), Plex/PlexAmp. I have digital music encoded from low-bitrate MP3 to FLAC and DSD. I had a vacation recently where I would be flying and beach/poolside and wanted a decent pair of ANC earbuds. I considered the Sony WF-1000XM5 based on my experience with the around-ear cans, but decided to do some research. The Soundcore Liberty 4 Pros had quite a bit of buzz, so I bought a pair via Amazon. The Good/Great: Great sound, period. Best earbuds I’ve ever used and definitely rival the around-ear headphones I’ve used. Full range, good bass, impressive volume. The ANC (active noise cancelling) is very effective. You have a 10-step control between “very transparent” = boosts the outside noise so you can keep the buds in your ear but hear MORE of what’s around you and “full ANC” which gives maximum noise cancelation. I had two cases of wanting the ANC active, two flights and one “poolside”. On the flights I activated the “flight mode” in the app. This pushes the ANC to the max AND uses a barometric sensor in the buds to compensate for changes in pressure in the plane. It’s hard to tell how well that works, but the sound was great throughout the flights. For “poolside”, I was at a resort that played music through pretty powerful speakers around their main pool. But when I was wearing the buds with ANC active, they did a good job blocking the speaker noise! Overall, I think ANC is a great feature, especially if you travel by air! It’s worth going with ANC headphones if you do! Calibration Feature: The app (highly recommend) lets you set a variety of sound “profiles”/equalizations. One option will step you through a hearing test. It takes about 10 minutes but is very much worth it. In my case, I know I have some high-frequency hearing loss in my left ear. The Soundcore hearing test detected this (so do a very expensive doctor…!) and built a custom equalization based on the findings. That profile REALLY improves the music playback! I can switch between the custom profile and a standard profile and really tell the difference. For me, that alone is worth the purchase! Also, during the sound / hearing test, the process will detect "sound leakage" due to the earbuds not sealing properly in your ear. This did happen to me but after some slight adjustments I got passed it. The point is that they take care to ensure the testing is very accurate and that you are getting a truly accurate profile generated. Comfort: Overall, the buds are very comfortable to wear. I had them in for most of two 3+ hour flights and had no discomfort. The buds stayed in without any problem. I was using the provided ear tips. Controls: I was skeptical at first, but the controls on these earbuds are great. It is subtle, but there is tactile feedback when “squeezing” the stems to pause/resume/skip, etc. I quickly learned how to precisely control the output. My Sony cans have “gesture” based controls which work, but sometimes are mis-interpreted. These Soundcore earbuds are give more control in a much smaller package. Case: The charging case is great but takes some time to get used to. The case charges quickly and gives good feedback about case charge level and/or earbud charge when they are in the case. Battery life is good. After each almost 4 hour flight the buds had about 64% charge remaining. And popping them into the case would have topped them off quite easily. The Not So Good: These are very minor issues I had only with my first period of usage. First, the size and shape of ear tips impact the use of the charging case. The provided tips work well, but I tried some other tips and they were too “big” and the case wouldn’t fully close with the buds inside. So if you use 3rd-party tips, note that you may have issues using the case and therefore charging. Another issue I had at first was that I was trying to put the buds in the case incorrectly and so they weren’t charging or connecting (eg: for a firmware updated). But I quickly realized the problem and learned the proper way to position the buds. Overall, I highly recommend these earbuds. The price is really great for what you get.

TL/DR: Satisfied with sound quality, ANC, customer service and earbud battery life. Disappointed with case battery life and the touch sensitive buttons on earbuds and the case. Extremely dissatisfied with overall product quality (broken after just over 40 days of ownership). Background: Before purchasing the 4 Pro, I owned the SoundCore Liberty 4NC for about three years before the battery in the right earbud died. So I was looking forward to the added features of the 4 Pro version. Disappointed: The case battery life seemed to require relatively more frequent charging than the 4NC. I used my earbuds an average of 1-3 hours a day for both the 4NC and the 4Pro. With the 4NC, I charged my case about every 2 weeks. But with the 4Pro I found myself needing to recharge the case at least 1x per week. Regarding the touch sensitivity. I suspect the touch button on the case may have contributed to the lower battery life. I suspect that every time I put my hand in my pocket, the touch controls were being activated causing the battery life to run down. The touch controls on the case are not necessary. Many other reviewers have covered the touch controls on the buds themselves. Satisfied: I will not get into the details of what I was satisfied with (except customer service) as many other reviewers have already covered those areas. Once my earbuds stopped working (read below), Soundcore customer support was quick to issue a replacement. Not happy that I needed a replacement so soon after purchasing, but happy that I did not have to go through a long back and forth with SoundCore. Just received confirmation that a replacement was being sent yesterday so still waiting for them. Extremely dissatisfied: After a little over 40 days of ownership, I woke up one morning and the earbuds were acting up. The left bud was not being recognized in the case but the right bud was recognized. However, when attempting to use the buds I could only get sound to play out of the left bud. I followed all cleaning instructions, but could not get the case to recognize that the left earbud was seated in the case. This is important because you cannot access the settings menu on the case or in the app unless the case recognizes both earbuds in the case. So you CANNOT access the option to reset the earbuds to factory settings to try to troubleshoot the issue. So I’m left with a useless pair of headphones that do not work. Final verdict: The fact that these did not even last two months has me extremely concerned about the overall longevity of these earbuds in general. I wish I just ordered another pair of 4NC’s or the 5’s. There are too many problems with the 4 Pro’s but Soundcore’s snappy customer service has me placated for now…that is until the replacements break also. Crossing my fingers for now that they last the test of time.

The earbuds themselves are great. They fit nicely into my ears and are quite comfortable. The sound cancellation is also very good, I use them when I mow or weed whack or chainsaw and they perform excellently. The software however, is becoming an issue. With increasing frequency they will just drop out of ANC mode and revert to their normal status. As one can imagine, this is less than ideal when sitting on a mower. Additionally, when this happens the squeeze controls cease to work. To fix this I must put them back in the case and allow them to reset before I can use them again. The length of use doesn’t matter, it can happen within 15mins or after 1 hour; I have yet to identify what would cause this issue other than software bugginess. In sum: the hardware is great, the software is buggy.

Soundcore always impresses me. I've been with them since they're Liberty 3. Even when I have been able to start affording some more expensive options, I always feel like it would be a waste of money to do so. These Soundcore Earbuds punch way above their weight class as always, and the new charging case features are really neat! Things I liked: Sound on these is incredible! The clarity in each range (bass, mids and highs) is there and frankly surprisingly effective for earbuds. They're not quite the same quality as my Sony headphones, but, they're earbuds, so I'm amazed that I'm to the point of even starting to hope they could compare. One of the first things I noticed is how loud these can get. For those of you who don't like this, it's okay, you can set a limit to the volume. For those of you who found yourselves trying to stick the earbuds further into your ear at time on the Liberty 4 Pro, that is definitely not necessary on these! I usually was close to full volume most of the time on the 4 and now I'm usually at half volume on the 4 Pro. I'm not sure that's how it should work on paper, but that's how I find myself adjusting the volume nonetheless. The new case features are cool. Some say they'd never use them, but honestly I use the Noise Cancelling adjustment all the time. And the remote camera I plan to use a lot. I love being able to find my earbuds and case! It would be nice to be able to use this functionality even when the earbuds are still inside the case because frankly, I misplace my case a lot and spend a good 10 minutes or more until I find them in some weird place where I decided to set them down. This should help half the time, but the other half, I guess I'll still have to play detective when I lose them. The earbuds charge fast in the case! Wow! And I can actually see the progress thanks to the screen on the case. I absolutely love being able to see the current battery life so easily! The battery life lasts a long time for these as well. I usually don't run into any issues with battery life even though I use these all the time. But if they ever start to get low, I usually just leave one earbud in and charge the other the swap. The case does seem like it could have a bit more battery life, but it's not bad, so I can't criticise it too much. Many more features and great things that are true about the 4s I could say here. Their app is great, and I really recommend getting familiar with it and making the most of these earbuds as a result! A few things I wish could be improved: Heart rate in the ear on Liberty 4 was an okay idea, but the lack of app functionality, integration capability and accuracy of it made me not use it much. Besides, with my exceedingly accurate Garmin devices, it was completely unnecessary, so I'm glad they threw it out. That said, I loved posture detection, and instead of getting rid of this feature, I wish they would have further improved it but just left the default off as I understand it wasn't for everyone. Holding the action button instead of using a double press like in the Liberty 4 to end the call is... well... kind of annoying. I'll say goodbye to someone and have three seconds of awkward silence trying to end the call. I would love for this too be improved, or at least be an option. The mics are great, one of the best in terms of earbud mic quality. That said, there was virtually no improvement this time around. I like the improved sound, but maybe next time SoundCore could come up with ways to improve mix quality even further. Being a musician who regularly uses a Rode NT and Shure SM58, I won't be satisfied until I get this level of quality. I know it's dreamlike thinking, but it is nice to strive for! The volume controls are just so hard to use. I put in a recommendation that they add volume controls to the case which may be useful. But the volume controls on the earbuds, although nice to have, just don't register very smoothly. I don't want SoundCore to get rid of this, but I do hope that in the next gen this is fixed and more smooth. Swipes on the car are usually really smooth, but taps are hard to get to register. It would be nice to have some kind of improvement here. Overall, fantastic earbuds, and I hope the company continues to come up with new things and improve their earbuds! I'll be using these every day until the Liberty 5s come out!

I am not a pro but i will try to review these the best I can. Pros: 1. Connecting - I connected them to my phone first through the app which went smooth but had to turn off the Bluetooth on the phone to connect them to my PC but once connected to both everything was fine. 2. fit - The buds fit well in my ears and were very comfortable with a good seal. 3. ANC - I have a window AC unit 15 feet from me and the ANC was able to remove the sound. Not a big user of ANC so I call this good. 4. Transparency - I do not use this feature, all I can say is that it works. 5. sound - I thought the sound out of the box was better than most I have heard but I always EQ. I used the app to set up the sound and got them to where I like ( bit of a bass head), nice and punchy with a sound profile I enjoyed. App setting carried over to my PC which was nice. 6. call - I only took one call and both parties were happy with the quality. 7. app - I honestly don't remember much about the app, had the bells and whistles you would expect from buds of this tier. 8. Battery life - unfortunately I didn't get the opportunity to keep them long enough to test this. Cons: 1. The case - My case was not working properly. All the reviews I saw showed how much functionality the case has but mine would only show charging status, ANC slider, and connection. I went through the included documentation to see if there was something I missed but couldn't find anything. I watched many reviews that showed the cases functions and couldn't see them doing something special to get it to work. 2. Controls - I had a hard time getting the click function on the stem to work properly. They weren't responsive as I would have expected, having to do the same operation multiple times to get them to do what I wanted. The swipe feature for volume was also a bit clunky sometimes and the left bud malfunctioned out of the blue. I went to swipe up to increase volume and I got a fast clicking sound (when you do an operation it would give an audible click so you know it worked) and the volume went to 0%. I figured it might just be a bug so I put the buds back in the case, took them out and tried again with same result. I tried reconnecting them, restarted the app but nothing helped. I was willing to keep the buds even with the problematic case but with the left bud issues I had to return them. I was tempted to replace them because I really like the sound and could see why they were well reviewed, but I just wasn't going to risk having another pair break especially if it was outside the return window.

Outstanding! Beautiful sound quality. Excellent build quality. Multiple functions & customisable to your personal preferences. Comfortable to wear & so far, nothing negative to add. Highly recommend. Don't hesitate to buy. I'm now looking at Soundcores Space One Pro ANC headphones.

There is no sound coming from the left side of the headphone and its battery is also very slow.

J'ai lu un article très favorable pour ces écouteurs classés dans les meilleurs rapports qualité-prix. Après un mois d'usage, je confirme que: - le boîtier de rangement et recharge est très pratique avec ses indications du niveau de charge (du boîtier comme de chaque écouteur), - l'autonomie des écouteurs est très satisfaisante et conforme à la description du produit, - celle du boîtier permet de recharger les écouteurs durablement sans se brancher sur le secteur, - Le boîtier est en outre très bien conçu (système d'ouverture et fermeture très pratique ne nécessitant qu'une seule main et rangement ou retrait facilité de chaque écouteur) - les écouteurs sont confortables pour les oreilles pendant un usage prolongé d'autant que plusieurs embouts sont fournis pour s'adapter à la morphologie de l'utilisateur. - ils tiennent bien si l'on bouge la tête. Il est cependant conseillé par sécurité d'utiliser un bandeau serre-tête si l'on court ou pratique une activité physique. - le confort d'écoute est amélioré par une réduction de bruit efficace. - personnellement, j'estime que la qualité du son est largement satisfaisante compte tenu de cette catégorie de produit dans cette gamme de prix. - ce produit rivalise donc bien avec d'autres articles plus onéreux. Je lui attribue 5 étoiles par rapport à sa gamme de prix, même si d'autres écouteurs ont une qualité sonore supérieure mais à un tarif qui l'est nettement aussi.
