The all-new true wireless earbuds offer the features of some of the market’s finest wireless earbuds minus the price tag of AirPods Pro 2 or Sony WF-1000XM4.
The Liberty 4 earbuds have a redesigned, stick-based design just like what Apple’s AirPods have and dual dynamic drivers that promise robust bass without losing high-end clarity. We love the 360-degree dynamic head tracking which delivers an immersive spatial audio experience throughout movies and music plays.
The Liberty 4 earbuds adopt Bluetooth 5.3 for more stable connectivity, and are equipped with Anker’s HearID active noise cancellation (ANC) that automatically adjusts based on different noise levels in the environment. The multipoint-enabled function allows the user to switch between multiple devices quickly. Impressively, these earbuds are equipped with not one, but six microphones for making and receiving calls.
Powered by Sony’s proprietary high-resolution LDAC wireless audio as well as the familiar advanced audio coding (AAC) and sub-band coding (SBC) codecs, Liberty 4 delivers an uncompromising music experience with crisp, supreme sound quality even over Bluetooth. Note that audio processing technology (aptX) isn’t supported.
It also comes with a built-in heart rate sensor that connects to Anker’s wellness app during workouts. These earbuds also actively measure blood oxygen levels throughout the day, as indicated by a red light.
At full charge, you get up to 9 hours of use with normal usage, 6 hours with LDAC audio, and 5 hours for spatial audio. The charging case provides a total battery life of up to 28 hours after an hour of full charge. Soundcore further reveals that users get up to three hours of use after 15 minutes of quick charge.
At the price of $149.99, the Soundcore Liberty 4 is considerably lower than its 3rd generation incarnation: the Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro earbuds cost $169.99 in the US.
The Soundcore’s Liberty 4 earbuds come in white or black colorways, and will be available on October 7 at Soundcore’s website directly, and on October 17 at Amazon.
