UPDATE! Firmware version 3.69 has dramatically improved the transparency mode! Voices are a lot clearer and natural. Distant noise now sounds normal (this was the biggest improvement). Overall I'd be happy to use transparency when having a conversation and the overall quality is very close to the Liberty 4. Soundcore once again showing why they're the kings. 🙌
What score do you give their transparency mode out of 10? Can you recommend other buds with better transparency maintaining a comfy and secure fit with a similar price?
You have the best channel on RUclips regarding audio hardware. Hands down man, you are very smart, structured-thinking and overall amazing video creator!
I wish I knew about this channel ages ago! Thanks for all the detail and for talking about niche stuff that most people skip over. I feel so much more confident about ordering the Liberty 4 NCs now. Bless you!
So, my arm hurt so much from your review, I dropped them in the cart. I already own the LIberty 4's. But, I got them in, got them set and I have not had a more satisfying experience with earbuds in a very long time. In terms of sound quality, these truly get it done. Thanks for being Picky.
@@landonfolken03 but if you use only one of the earbuds, you can just change the audio output of your phone/computer to be "mono" right? So both channels will be sent to both earbuds and you will hear both channels through the single bud you are using?
@@neotheone04that's means he has to do it anytime he's using one earbud and then change it back to stereo when he's using two which can get pretty tiring.
Another great Picky review. I was definitely surprised with some of the other brands you chose the over. Especially the Evos for sound quality. You now have my attention again Soundcore 😂
So far, the transparency seems very good actually. I was a little concerned after I watched this review, but I just got mine and tried them out. The transparency seems very good so far. I did have a firmware update during the setup. Maybe that addressed the transparency mode
really cool vid bro keep goinggg !!!!!!!!!!!! I'd like to ask which of the soundpeats air 3 pro and earfun air 3 pro is better im really so confused and cant decide which one to get so id like if u can please help me with that would appreciate it so muchhhhhh .
@@pickyaudio oh thank u so much for replying . I was confused because u mentioned some issues with the earfun sound quality. So even with that should I go to earfun as a better option ?
Bro i was so confused with the controls i almost surrendered with soundcore cuz the guids don't specify you can configure the controls that much. Thanks to you i know now that i might get this earbuds in the future, great vid!😎
I had the Soundcore A2 nc but lost them on a bike trail. I don't see them on amazon anymore so I think I'll go with these. The 4nc is 70 on amazon rn. Sounds like a steal to me.
This look really a promising TWS. I will have these TWS tomorrow, ordered it online. I do think we have the same taste and what we are looking for in a TWS. I even prefer this over the Liberty 4 cuz of the bassy signature, we prefer to be bassy and we want full richer sound overall. I understand you because you compared the W240TN to 4NC, that's my previous tws, and it sounds meh and seriously lacking for me out of the box, it got better when I tuned the EQ though. ANC and transparency are also good in W240TN, but after seeing you ranked it 10th and placing 4NC on 5th in terms of ANC, it made me realized I made a good choice there afterall. Haven't tried higher models of Soundcore before, I hope this brand will turn things around. Also good to hear that Transparency was fixed after the update. I'm looking forward, nice content Picky Audio glad to have watched this😁👌
Personally I can't stand the earbud sticks design with the long stalk. I much prefer the bud design/bean design that is only visible from the side and looks less ridiculous. I remember when Airpods came out and people wore them with the stalks sticking out of their heads toward the side - looks really stupid! lol
I‘m not sure if I‘m just unable to turn anc on or if it doesn’t work hardly at all. Upon setting it manually and changing the amount from minimum to maximum, I hear no difference.
Hello, congratulations for the review. At the same price $, which do you recommend for use in the gym and outdoor walks? I love listening to good rock n roll! Between Liberty 4 and Liberty 4 NC.
In between SoundPeats Engine 4 and these, which sound do you prefer since on your recent engine 4 review you mentioned it was your favourite tunning from SoundPeats? And how about SoundPeats H1 compared to these?
Engine 4 is slightly more balanced with a wider sound stage. H1 is a more over the top bass boosted tuning. Pure sound quality is so close but SoundPEATS just wins there.
@@farhanchowdhury9291 Depends what you like, for example I personally dont care about ANC or transparency mode, passive noise cancelling works good enough for me, I like to have insane battery life, great sound and dual device connection. And as for calls I personally havent had anyone tell me they cant hear me speak with the engine 4, I have had people say that with the h1 but engine 4 so far has been good.
The obvious question here is the sound difference. I'm uk the lib4 NC is 80£, whereas the original lib4 are still well over £100. Seems there's is a little difference on the driver spec
The Liberty 4 have dual drivers, and a more convenient squeeze/touch control rather than just basic touch control. Probably better microphones. Other than that, it's pretty much matches it feature for feature and probably gets better battery life. That was pretty much what they did with the space a40. Got worst drivers, worst microphones but otherwise retained all the major features like multipoint and LDAC
I'm looking for good buds for a workout with a very good sound quality. Is this good for it or I should choose something else? I'm hesitating between this and the Jabra Elite 4 Active. Now I use Galaxy Buds Live for 3 years.
Everyone’s ears must be different. I love my JBL live Pro 2 and I feel the NC is almost as good as my AirPod pro 2. I had all the Sony buds and sold them because the fit and NC was not great. I also sold the Bose QC because the case is the size of a small car. Great NC though
I bought these headphones for 100 dollars on their website and within a week the right earphone burned, and they did not accept the guarantee for being outside the country, a shame, I loved them.
Great review Picky Audio. I have been using Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Pro for a long time. I am looking to upgrade to something that will be best for calls. I walk on a noisy street with tons of cars passing by and on the beach with a lot of wind noise. What would you buy for the best noise reduction on the microphone? Thank you again for a great review.
@@pickyaudio And LOVE them. Tested call quality mic/NC in the car with windows down, barking dogs, running water, flushing toilet. My listener could only detect a few artifacts on occasion, but had no idea what I was doing. AMAZING!
@@SideEffects297Primarily I bought for mic NC on phone calls, but also I find very immersive listening to music. Not an expert, but they're best earbuds I've ever had for both calls and music. I find the music playback great, including plenty bass.
@@SideEffects297I don't have answers to your specific questions on LDAC or Liberty Pro 4. I run a Pixel 7 if that helps on codecs. Music sounds great. NC was great today blocking road/wind/traffic noise on a 2 hour drive. They're the best earbuds I've ever owned but it's been several years since I had expensive Sony's.
The ear tips it comes with are constantly slipping out (even after getting a warranty tip replacement). If anyone knows of replacements that fit the unique style, holler at me!
How do they compare to a40s and liberty 4 in terms of comfort? Did you gf wear them for 2-3h+, since maybe that's when their chunkiness comes into play for people with smaller ears
Lib 4 and A40 are smaller and slightly more comfortable. She wore them for close to two hours. She is used to wearing the Earfun free pro which are a lot smaller.
@@pickyaudio So.. what was her input? Did she feel like they were not very comfortable for her? I heard another reviewer said they were very close to airpods in terms of how they feel and comfort, so im curious if that's the reality of it.
I got these the other day and love them. The one thing i absolutely hate is the silicone tips theyve included and the fact they are some stupid oval shape that you cant just buy different ones. Luckily, i found a reddit post the other nighr where some guy found other brands that use similar ones thag work for it lol
Hi james don't know if you will see this or respond to it but I need your advice. I am looking at the jbl live pro 2 and the nothing ear 2 and I was wondering which one you would recommend. Thanks!
Hi Picky one more question, 1 more evo is $30 dollar more than liberty 4 NC in Amazon, which one I should get if I want best noise cancelling and bass? Thanks.
Evo has slightly stronger ANC. I don’t like the sound/sound customisation of the evo. And you get better app customisation and controls on the liberty 4. 4NC is the better option IMO
Hello Brother Please rank #1, #2, #3, #4 for the best mic quality for doing instagram live, youtube live, facebook live and the best mic video recording quality for youtuber from these 4 best mics below : ✅ Audio Technica ATH SQ1TW ✅ Edifier W240TN ✅ Fill CC Nano ✅ Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 NC Looking forward to hearing from you soon Brother Thank you 👍🙏
I have the Huawei free buds pro. Do you think I should replace them? Thank you for your detailed videos. I was hopping but somehow also sure that you would do a video about them!
I'd like to ask you for recommendation cuz I'm pretty much confused which do u recommend between earfun air 3 pro and soundcore liberty 3 pro. I have watched some reviews but still can't decide would appreciate it much if you can help ...... keep the good work !!!
You're the only reviewer who's ever mentioned Mono audio when using 1 earbud. Thanks for that. Can you confirm if that's still the case please? Is it possible that a software update fixed this?
I've contacted soundcore support about that. Here is there answer : "When using only one earbud of the Liberty 4 or Liberty 4 NC, the audio output will remain according to the settings on your phone. If your phone is set to play stereo sound, it will continue to do so, and you will hear both the left and right channels in the one earbud." So I guess we can call this "mono" if the left and right channels go to one earbud? 😅
Hi Mate, as always come to your channel for a new pair of buds, was using the EarFun air pro 2s but lost the case and a bud the other day, but they were terrible, tried the pro 3s a while ago but didn’t like no in ear detection. Just scrolling through your videos, and stuck between the Liberty 4NC,s, Space A40s or the EarFun Air Pro 3s again as all 3 of my list doesn’t have in ear detection, the main reason I use them is for taking and making calls outdoors in fairy noisy windy places (work) _ The soundcore pairs are both £80gbp, can get the EarFun pair for £58, which out the 3 do you honestly recommend. Are soundcores worth £22 more?
Can I be cheeky and ask you which earbuds your girlfriend mostly uses? From the looks of her ears, they are a similar size to mine. I have just returned SONY Linkbuds S as even they were too big. Many thanks in advance.
Hi, I would really appreciate it if you could let me know between Soundcore Liberty 4 NC vs Soundpeats Opera 03 vs Edifier W320TN, which one would you get for yourself ignoring the price difference factor? Just want to know base on the quality of the earbuds.
Hello, sorry. I know this is an old video, I wanted to know what's the occlusion score you have for Liberty 4 NC when it comes to Transparency? I can see Melobuds had 4/5.9
I've iust lost one of my 1st Gen Echo Buds, that I paired with my iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, so the timing of this video is perfect! Regular AirPods don't stay in my ears, so I need something more fitted. Might have to give these a go.
Finally... you're one of the RUclipsrs that they reached out to make a content early and release it on time, I usually dont buy products until I watch your review. Because there are some RUclipsrs claim that these are better than the Airpods Pro 2 and is the ultimate tws lol. A bunch of paid reviewers. I stay Picky only support HONEST reviewrs Keep it up brother!
Beware of poor battery life. A week ago, I decided to test the actual battery life after having it for a year. With ANC on, SBC Codec, it only lasted for about 6 hours. I purchase this from Amazon US. Since they can't ship replacement to NZ they offer me 40% refund, not from price of purchase, but on the price of the current price which was lower than what I paid. The 40% according to the support is because I still have about 5 months left for warranty.
I bought Soundcore Liberty 4 NC today and after pairing with Samsung Galaxy Mobile phone, it works ok, but I disappointed it does not work well with my MS Surface Pro 8. It does not have app to download for Windows 11, but it still can be connected. The problem is after connecting with MS Surface Pro 8, the sound was so poor and cannot be adjusted. I also have another one Earbuds Samsung Galaxy pro, I connected with MS Surface Pro 8, it works ok, the sound still not satisfy, but it better than SoundCore Liberty 4 NC. Please bear in mind before buying it, think carefully. Anyone has a good idea, please share. THANKS.
I'm confused. I own Space A40 and I hear both channels (left and right) when I use only one earbud (easy to test this). I would assume that Liberty 4 NC works the same way.
Hi, do you have a final rating comparison between Liberty 4 and Liberty 4 NC? My Liberty 4 got washed in a washing machine and was thinking to either purchase liberty 4 or liberty 4 NC
*These are great, I own a pair. BUT the battery life is NOWHERE NEAR the claimed 8-10 hours if you actually use the features that make these great. Turn on LDAC and ANC and run time drops to 3-3.5 hours at moderate volume. Turn on game mode and crank the volume and it's more like 2.5-3 hours. Still great buds but the battery claims are wildly deceptive by Soundcore.*
Hey, i ran my buds down all the way to 0%, and I squeezed out around 6h30m - 7h (barely touching 7 hours). After some digging, I found a reddit post where someone copy and pasted the email they got from soundcore after inquiring about the battery life. The email stated "8 hours with ANC off and 6 hours with it on." I'm teetering on the decision of tossing these but I absolutely love the sound and ANC. Any recommendations for ANC like the L4NC at the same price point?
Hello, thanks for the reply! My 1 more comfo buds pro broke, and I just got this Soundcore Liberty 4NC, but got some questions with voice assistant, please see if you can help... I use a Samsung S21 FE. I set the 4NC controls to tap and activate google assistant, but there is no prompt sound. And when I use Google Assistant to make a phone call, it says I have to unlock the phone first. I didn't have these issues with the 1 more comfo, do you know how to set these 2 items? Many thanks!

On the liberty 4N c's. You don't always have to hit the button. You can just pull up the case, and it will open, it's just magnetic.
I only figured this out it the other day haha!
Great review as always. Thanks for bringing up the mono mode I have not seen other reviewers do it.

No worries
So far, the transparency seems very good actually. I was a little concerned after I watched this review, but I just got mine and tried them out. The transparency seems very good so far.
I did have a firmware update during the setup. Maybe that addressed the transparency mode

I have the Huawei free buds pro. Do you think I should replace them? Thank you for your detailed videos. I was hopping but somehow also sure that you would do a video about them!
Thank you! I’ve never tested them so can’t say for sure
I'd like to ask you for recommendation cuz I'm pretty much confused which do u recommend between earfun air 3 pro and soundcore liberty 3 pro. I have watched some reviews but still can't decide would appreciate it much if you can help ...... keep the good work !!!
Thanks! Liberty 3 pro is better overall
How these compare in sound quality to SoundPEATS Engine4?
Engine 4 slightly better not as bass boosted though
hello brother ,Which one is best for bas
Between liberty 3 pro and 4 nc ?
You're the only reviewer who's ever mentioned Mono audio when using 1 earbud. Thanks for that.
Can you confirm if that's still the case please? Is it possible that a software update fixed this?
I've contacted soundcore support about that. Here is there answer :
"When using only one earbud of the Liberty 4 or Liberty 4 NC, the audio output will remain according to the settings on your phone. If your phone is set to play stereo sound, it will continue to do so, and you will hear both the left and right channels in the one earbud."
So I guess we can call this "mono" if the left and right channels go to one earbud? 😅
Hi, can you use 3d surround sound with custom eq on? Thanks
Nope
Hi Mate, as always come to your channel for a new pair of buds, was using the EarFun air pro 2s but lost the case and a bud the other day, but they were terrible, tried the pro 3s a while ago but didn’t like no in ear detection. Just scrolling through your videos, and stuck between the Liberty 4NC,s, Space A40s or the EarFun Air Pro 3s again as all 3 of my list doesn’t have in ear detection, the main reason I use them is for taking and making calls outdoors in fairy noisy windy places (work) _ The soundcore pairs are both £80gbp, can get the EarFun pair for £58, which out the 3 do you honestly recommend. Are soundcores worth £22 more?
Hey! Yea the 4NC are worth the extra money
Has anyone used the ANC on an airplane?
Shokz openfit is pretty good compare Oladance Wearable Stereo and the openrock
Yea I’ve seen them around! I’ll need to test them out
Can I be cheeky and ask you which earbuds your girlfriend mostly uses? From the looks of her ears, they are a similar size to mine. I have just returned SONY Linkbuds S as even they were too big. Many thanks in advance.
She has been using the earfun free pro for years. Loves them
@@pickyaudio Thank you.
Hi, I would really appreciate it if you could let me know between Soundcore Liberty 4 NC vs Soundpeats Opera 03 vs Edifier W320TN, which one would you get for yourself ignoring the price difference factor? Just want to know base on the quality of the earbuds.
Hey, 4NC
Thanks mate! Keep up the good work!
Hello, sorry. I know this is an old video, I wanted to know what's the occlusion score you have for Liberty 4 NC when it comes to Transparency? I can see Melobuds had 4/5.9
I've iust lost one of my 1st Gen Echo Buds, that I paired with my iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, so the timing of this video is perfect! Regular AirPods don't stay in my ears, so I need something more fitted. Might have to give these a go.
Well if you grab them I hope they work well for you!
Which is better for listen metal this 4 NC or the SA40? Other recommendation in this price range? (I want it for weightlifting at the gym) cheers! \m/
I prefer the 4NC, at this price it’s the best you can get
@@pickyaudio Great, I'll get it, cheers from Mexico, stay heavy \m/
Finally... you're one of the RUclipsrs that they reached out to make a content early and release it on time, I usually dont buy products until I watch your review. Because there are some RUclipsrs claim that these are better than the Airpods Pro 2 and is the ultimate tws lol. A bunch of paid reviewers. I stay Picky only support HONEST reviewrs
Keep it up brother!
My man! 🙌
Beware of poor battery life. A week ago, I decided to test the actual battery life after having it for a year. With ANC on, SBC Codec, it only lasted for about 6 hours. I purchase this from Amazon US. Since they can't ship replacement to NZ they offer me 40% refund, not from price of purchase, but on the price of the current price which was lower than what I paid. The 40% according to the support is because I still have about 5 months left for warranty.
I bought Soundcore Liberty 4 NC today and after pairing with Samsung Galaxy Mobile phone, it works ok, but I disappointed it does not work well with my MS Surface Pro 8. It does not have app to download for Windows 11, but it still can be connected. The problem is after connecting with MS Surface Pro 8, the sound was so poor and cannot be adjusted.
I also have another one Earbuds Samsung Galaxy pro, I connected with MS Surface Pro 8, it works ok, the sound still not satisfy, but it better than SoundCore Liberty 4 NC. Please bear in mind before buying it, think carefully.
Anyone has a good idea, please share. THANKS.
worst choice ever
Mine didnt even last a full day before my left earbud started making a shrieking loud static sound.
I'm confused. I own Space A40 and I hear both channels (left and right) when I use only one earbud (easy to test this). I would assume that Liberty 4 NC works the same way.
For Picky Audio or anyone who has tried the earbuds, Soundcore Liberty 4 NC or Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro?
Hi, do you have a final rating comparison between Liberty 4 and Liberty 4 NC? My Liberty 4 got washed in a washing machine and was thinking to either purchase liberty 4 or liberty 4 NC
*These are great, I own a pair. BUT the battery life is NOWHERE NEAR the claimed 8-10 hours if you actually use the features that make these great. Turn on LDAC and ANC and run time drops to 3-3.5 hours at moderate volume. Turn on game mode and crank the volume and it's more like 2.5-3 hours. Still great buds but the battery claims are wildly deceptive by Soundcore.*
Hey, i ran my buds down all the way to 0%, and I squeezed out around 6h30m - 7h (barely touching 7 hours). After some digging, I found a reddit post where someone copy and pasted the email they got from soundcore after inquiring about the battery life. The email stated "8 hours with ANC off and 6 hours with it on." I'm teetering on the decision of tossing these but I absolutely love the sound and ANC. Any recommendations for ANC like the L4NC at the same price point?
Hello picky audio, for space A40 and liberty 4 NC for sound quality, Anc and comfort which earbud should I go to? Thanks for the help!
A40 is slightly more comfortable. But ANC and sound is better on the 4NC
@@pickyaudio Thanks! Will purchase liberty 4 nc soon. 😊
Can you set the controls to activate google assistant? heard they don't answer to "OK google" thanks!
There is not OK Google. You can add voice assistant to the touch controls though
Hello, thanks for the reply! My 1 more comfo buds pro broke, and I just got this Soundcore Liberty 4NC, but got some questions with voice assistant, please see if you can help... I use a Samsung S21 FE. I set the 4NC controls to tap and activate google assistant, but there is no prompt sound. And when I use Google Assistant to make a phone call, it says I have to unlock the phone first.
I didn't have these issues with the 1 more comfo, do you know how to set these 2 items?
Many thanks!
Thanks a lot for all your reviews!
Eagerly waiting for your Beats Studio Buds + review, the outdoor call quality test in particular…
Thanks! They're out in Aus now so I should have them soon
Great review! Would you say that the transparency mode is the same, worse or better than the space a40?
With the recent update it is better
Good breakdown. How come so many Aussie's have that 1970's alarm clock buzzer in their voice?
