Soundcore by Anker Liberty 4 NC Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds, 98.5% Noise Reduction, Adaptive Noise Cancelling to Ears and Environment, Hi-Res Sound, 50H Battery, Wireless Charging (Renewed)

I picked these up to compliment my AirPod gen 3s for those times when I needed ANC like when mowing the lawn or in a data center (which are extremely loud with fan noise). I was initially concerned due to some of the issues a few people had but have yet to see any negatives with these. Fit - I find these to be far more comfortable than my AirPods with a snug fit without causing any discomfort for long periods Sound - I’m not an audiophile, but the first thing I did when these arrived was to do multiple comparisons to my AirPods. I found the AirPods had a deeper base and were a “tinge” cleaner sound, but these almost have a “clearer” sound that is not so bass heavy. Realistically even after 5 minutes of going back and forth I couldn’t say which was “better” - and that’s a good thing for those wanting AirPod quality without the price. ANC - these do exactly what I wanted them to. While on the mower I can actually hear what I’m listening to without having to be at max volume. In the data centers I have no issues whatsoever hearing and they do a phenomenal job cutting out the noise. For me this was well worth the purchase. Phone Calls - I ran these through the paces here too. I placed a call to a buddy and ran through talking on the regular handset to AirPods to the Soundcore Liberty 4s asking which is clearer (without saying what I was specifically testing for) and he couldn’t tell the difference between the Soundcores and the AirPods. I also tested these while in the server room - and issue I’ve had many times where people can’t hear me - and so far every call has been clear on both sides, the ANC also cleans up the phone calls. Transparency Mode - I don’t use this often, but when I need it it’s nice that I can go from ANC to Transparency mode just by holding the side down - it takes a few seconds but you hear all the background noise flood in and can easily have a conversation with them in. Side touch - while the side touch to skip / pause / volume / etc can be a bit finicky, I found that it’s more about knowing the specific spot to touch rather than it not reacting. From what I can tell, the spot right below the curve at the top is where the sensor is - knowing this makes it easy to double and triple tap to use those functions. Phone App - this is probably where I would take marks away. It’s not that the app is bad, my biggest gripe is that until you open the case, you can’t see any of the settings for your device - it’ll just sit with a “not connected” message. This means if you want to see how much battery is left you need to open the case to connect. One also cannot see any of the settings without having them connected. One thing I do like is that you can configure the side touch how you want; if you prefer to have pause/play be a double tap you can set that or if you want volume up be a single tap on one earphone you can do that as well. The app has some good things in it, my gripe is that they’re inaccessible until you connect it with the case open. Overall I’m extremely impressed with these earphones, to the point where I would probably suggest someone purchase them over AirPods. In fact, since purchasing these I have yet to use or even CHARGE my AirPods. Speaking of charging, the case also supports wireless charging, something the AirPods charge a premium for. One thing to note - I’m not bashing the Apple product, the AirPods have great functions that these don’t. Features like notification announcements and head tracking. For those looking for a great product and are willing to give up some features, the Soundcore Liberty 4 NCs are well worth the price of admission.

Superb I've been using the Anker Liberty headphones since the originals. Ive liked each one I've gotten in the noise canceling/pro line. The battery life has always been great. Sound has always been impressive. The controls have always been handy and not hard to use. Connection has been good to, I often walk pretty far from my phone when im working. The path has a couple obstructions but nothing crazy and while the signal sometimes will cut out for a second. I dont lose connection.

Pretty comfortable, good sound quality not as loud as I was expecting or hoping but overall a solid budget headphone but if you’re looking for something a bit louder, I would go with something else.

I have always bought AirPods. First time trying this brand that I will never try different brand again. Work great is it comfortably and they stay charged forever.

Poor ANC and fit. Returned. Maybe 3rd party tips would have solved some of the issues, but why do they come with such poor quality tips? I have an older model and they are great, but battery is worn out. The sound of these is good, but that doesn’t matter if the earbuds easily slip out and/or don’t block sound well, no matter which size is used. YMMV

Wow! These are WAY NICER than I expected! For $45, this is an outstanding deal. The app is very cool, and they work so well! I love the sound testing, and the noise cancelling works ok, so far it’s the only thing I wonder about. My over the ear Sonys cut the noise so much better. Guess I will try the different silicone sizes to see if one works better. They're very comfortable, and quality feeling. The additional silicone tips for each ear are appreciated as well. These are too good to be true!

Nice sound and stable on ears

This is my first pair of earbuds . I really like them. They work well. They sound great since I'm able to use the graphic equalizer in their detailed app. They do everything they said they would. In this price range, I highly recommend them 👍

Ecouteurs très efficaces au niveau de la réduction de bruit et de la qualité sonore, éléments remarquables à ce niveau de prix très abordable. On peut discuter sur des détails, mais à ce tarif, le produit tient parfaitement la route face aux concurrents (Sony...). Très confortables dans l'oreille, grâce aux adaptateurs de taille. L'application liée est bien concue et facile à utiliser. Un excellent produit que je recommande.

Very impressed with these earbuds. The sound is clear and powerful, and the noise cancellation works extremely well. They are comfortable to wear, connect quickly and stay securely in place. Battery life is also very good. Excellent quality and performance for the price. Highly recommended!

Sluchawki dobrze graja i wyciszaja lecz dostał mi sie uzywany egzemplarz, nawet gumki nie były dobrze wyczyszczone i byl problem z parowaniem bo ktos ich nie rozłączył z konta przed zwrotem

Top end volume , battery , app , fit and most important the noise cancellation is top notch bought probably 10 pairs of different brands over the last 6-7 year and these are great the only criticism is with music the anc can be too good if you work construction like me can’t hear people shouting you , not always a bad thing lol, podcast and audiobooks work great with site noises like saws and extractions running don’t buy AirPods like I have before too expensive when these do the exact same for 1/3 the price , highly recommend

A really good product. The noise cancelling was way better than I initially expected. Lightweight and the overall sounds is amazing once you tweak the EQ settings in the phone app a bit. I would recommend buying ear tips though as I found the ones that come with it might be prone to falling off your ear. I ordered some memory foam ear tips and have had zero issues going on. Update: Unfortunately I have been going through an issue within the first month of purchase that has gotten me to downgrade my review. I was on a long flight and the left earbuds just stopped bringing out sound. The touch functions still work on the left buds, but only right buds bring out sound. I tried resetting the buds numerous times along with resetting the Bluetooth connection but it only works occasionally. Based on Reddit comments, it seems this is a common issue with Soundcore buds which is highly unfortunate. I am left annoyed now because I am out of the country with no means of using warranty of any sorts.
