Soundcore released the model in June 2023, so these budget earbuds are obviously relatively contemporary. After all, they do have ANC on deck, which has become a must in today’s headphones. The feature should work surprisingly well for the earbuds’ relatively low price point, and it’s not just any noise cancellation, either.
These puppies offer Adaptive Noise Control, five noise canceling levels, wind reduction, and more. Clearly, that’s way more than what you get on the average pair of £80 earbuds, which is also how much these cost without the 20% markdown.
The Liberty 4 NC should also sound decent for their price, especially if you’re into pop or dance music. However, we wouldn’t expect wonders out of them with vocals. Aside from that, the Soundcore earbuds support LDAC, AAC, and SBC codecs for Hi-Res audio and have customizable EQ settings via the app.
In addition, these bad boys have astonishing battery life for their price. Quite impressively, you get up to 10 hours of playtime from each earbud, while earbuds like the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro offer merely five hours with ANC on. The wireless charging case can give you five full charges, thus bringing total listening time up to 50 hours!
