Good balanced review. I was an early adopter of these because most earbuds don't stay in for me. These do. The transparency is shaky, but the fit and sound quality outstanding.Great for working hard in noisy environments with great battery life.
I bought these, i was looking for good sounding earbuds with touch controls (pushing the earbuds against my ear to me is really uncomfortable) did’nt care too much about the anc or waterproof aspect and i started doing “research”, I was on the fence because never heard of the brand but I must say that you guys convinced me when you were compairing these with the senheisers, you said “the liberty pro sound more fun for genres like edm and hip hop” and that convinced me. I was surprised truly, these sound great, i know that sound quality is subjective and to each their own, but these sounded better than i was expecting, one thing that at first kind of bum me out is that they are not loud, but after some use i noticed that they don’t need to be loud, the anc helps alot masking the noise and is pure music what i hear, i find the sound and loudness of the earbuds satisfying at 80% volume in an iphone, so thank you i guess and keep the good content coming.
They did just put out a firmware upgrade that enhances the ambient mode. I agree that it was a weak point but it seems much better now with the update.
I’ve tried the Bose QCs, AirPod Pros, and the non ANC UE Fits. So far, the SC L3Ps have been the most comfortable for longer wear of the ANC ones (I don’t think anything could beat the Fits with the custom shaping). They’re a bit finicky to find exactly how they need twisted into your ear but once you find what works for you they’re good for hours. My biggest complain like you all said is the weak transparency and that it always sounds like my ears are plugged, which I didn’t have with the other two heavy hitters. I’m mixed on whether to return and try the Sonys (discounted right now) or just enjoy what I have and save the money.
Just a update. You can now change to transparent and anc mode with one earbud in. Thank yall for yall's time putting these videos together! It really makes a difference on either to buy a pair of earbuds or not. Keep up the great work!
It's not really necessary anyway. The whole reason why we wear one bud is so we can listen to music while being able to here our surroundings. There would be no point turning on the noise canceling or transparency because it would only cancel one ear
@@eric_t123 I like to be able to hear with both ears so having transparency with a single ear is nice even if it's not 1:1 hearing with my other ear. My main gripe is that they do remember your ANC setting but not particularly for individual bud use, so I can't have it automatically switch from ANC to transparency mode when I put one bud into the case like some other products
I paid 169.99 but would pay $200.00 for these. I currently have Bose, Sony, Jabra , Jaybird, Beats pro, airpod pro. For me Soundcore, I’m definitely not a spokesperson for them 😂, are the real deal. The product support is amazing. You’re buying more than buds. You get great support through their app as well.
I completely agree, I love these buds. I took the Sony WF-1000 XM4's back due to ear fatigue. I also find the Soundcore to be better than my Sennheiser CX ear buds as well.
@@Mikeyp1054 well if i may say, its all about experience. (According what happen on me) i bought some earphones, and buds. Not the high end tho. So, What im looking for ? >> Experience
Picked these up after your review and they came today and appreciated both the pros and cons you mention which gave me a clear choice in the cornicopia of earbuds that are available. thanks. as to the buds, i love them!
I love my LP3s. Had them for around 3 weeks now and they keep getting better with firmware updates. I listen on transparency mode the most as I walk in town and walk my dogs, one that I am working on bike reactivity. The transparency amplifies the sound so I hear any bike and can keep my dog's focus before he reacts. Been a game changer for me as I can talk on the phone and listen to podcasts and music but can still be safe while walking and train my dog. Also love the sound and they are the most comfortable ones I have tried. I have tried many budget earbuds and the Sony xm4s. I took the xm4s back because I couldn't stand how uncomfortable they were for my small ears after 20 min. The anc is perfect for what I use them for. I use these to cut out most sound but not all as I use these for being out and about and I don't like to ever be completely oblivious to the world when I am not at home. I have my Sony over the ear xm3s for that at home when I want to cut out basically everything. Imo I think they deserve the hype but I do think comfort, sound, and what features it has is personal to an extent and not everyone has the same preferences.
Does it make a pressure in ear canal due to ANC.? Or other link of air fatigue. I guess their is no pressure releasing mesh chamber. Plz do reply sir ..!!!!
Did you guys or anyone reading this feel Liberty 3 Pro has something wrong with the tonality of the treble? It sounds metallic to me and the mids/voices also sound thin. Everything else about these is exceptionally good...
Yep Mids/Treble we're very thin/ sibilant sounding, vocals didn't sound full bodied at all, had great great sound stage, but I returned them for that reason.
that issue about dropping the buds in the case is so true! i think having to turn them around is something you can get used to (as i did with the L2P) but i can't just drop them in! they don't always sit themselves on the contacts! with the L2P, as long as turn them in the right orientation, i could drop them in and they would seat themselves in position 100% of the time. with the L3P, it's more like 80% of the time...and i always have to wait a second to check that it's good.
Sounds a lot like Life P3 ANC modes. I'm still amazed that the sub $50 Soundpeats T2 has better ANC and transparency than many more expensive buds. Like closing or opening a studio door it's that effective. So why is it so hard for others to get right without spending far more?
I'm relieved to realise the anc is turned off when I am on a call. I was nervous when first attempting to shop for some ANC earbuds, that one of my ears would sound deaf, whilst the other ear was open to listen unimpedid. Anyway, great review! Thank you!
I was concerned when I first caught glimpse of your video when looking for a possibly Liberty 4 Pro. I was wondering if there is something I missed. Because like you guys, I own allot of headsets. And although I am not going to go on about all of them. I will state that for the price be it full or half price, these are worth it. I have never had a set fit my ears the way these do. I can honestly say that I can wear these all day long and not be sore. I will agree, out of the box, the high pitch sounds are pretty harsh and it took some tweaking to find that sweet spot. But after finding it. Wow. I could hear the sounds of fingers going up and down the fretboard and hear background sounds that often couldn't be picked up. I often use these to cut out the noise doing the lawn or just not wanting to hear the kids yap back and forth about how good they are doing on a video game. So, I use ANC 90% of the time. Transparency mode does stink, but I haven't heard a set that really did well with it. All in all, if these broke, I WOULD buy another pair.
Why would you want to use anc or transparency with one ear bud? Lol... but with this new 4.58 update they certainly made the transparency mode better. Love these bad boys lol
They just received an update. The transparency is much clearer but it still may need another update or two to get it perfect. I at least like that they are aware of this.
I have had mine maybe 5 months. Use them a couple hours in the morning. The right one isnt charging. The first time, i thought it was me. So im very diligent to make sure they're in the case right. Well its not me! Any advise will be appreciated, PLEASE 😊
Spot on! Exactly how I feel about these. When I first got them, I was like why hasn't anyone mention about putting back them into the case?! No big deal but still, comparatively inconvenient.
I love them but this case annoys me a great deal when putting them back in and having them disconnect from my phone. I still love them and will keep them. The sound and features outweigh my gripes.
the way of puttin the earbuds in the case is difficult. When I receive a call, I have to manually press the earplug and I find difficult to press the button. I prefer physical buttons. and the last thing they don't have a vocal assistant for the different mode (connected, anc, transparency). I don't find the anc that great either. but the sound is awesome
I find the case too slippery for my hands. Dropped it many times trying to open the lid. I read the previous gen had a rubberized feel, like the Truengine 3 SE. That should have been retained. I actually like the XM3 case. Nice and chunky and I too have BIG pockets!
1. The price... Now the price keep changing from $159 to $129. It seems to be rotated so if you waited for couple more weeks the price will drop again. At $129, this is definitely the best bang for the buck. 2. The size... I always carry these earbuds plus one more pair of different brand in my front pocket and never have any problem.
Honestly for me they're really not loud enough and the treble and bass is pretty lacking compared to the jaybird Vista 1, is there a setting I'm missing or something cause so far they're not that good
Really useful review thank you, I didn't know about any of these negative aspects. The large case and the buds not always going in correctly is enough to deter me from buying.
Does it make a pressure in ear canal due to ANC.? Or other link of air fatigue. I guess their is no pressure releasing mesh chamber. Plz do reply sir ..!!!!
I don't even understand your review. You said the sound library pro is good or not very good. Also you said on your title from your review don't buy them. Because i am a little bit confused here. Please tell me are these library pro earbuds any or not.
Did the new firmware update change the ANC/transparency mode? I read about how the update improved the transparency mode on Reddit Just wanted to know it from you guys.
Hey DHRME, can u please advice, if they are good choice for a GYM ? If they will fit proper, and dont get broke because of sweating (water) ? Thanks for advice.
They're pretty decent. Not the most waterproof out there and we never got a good fit, but everyone's ears are different, so what works for us, may not work for you...
It would be really nice if you could set the music to pause when switching to transparency mode. The only time I use it is when I want to talk to someone.
Great review. One of the few that brings up the issues with the earbuds. I had the liberty 2 pros before switching to pixel buds and due to constant disconnects, I'm ready to make the switch back
Great video... I like that gave some points from the other perspective but then rolled it back around by saying you still thought they were awesome and worth it.
How big is the issue with them not turning off when in the case? It's the reason I'm dumping my Sennheiser Momentum TW3s as they had this issue and it only got worse over time.
Well the good thing about SoundCore is you can EQ the f*** out of it. I'm not sure if that's the case with Sennheiser. Sennheiser certainly has a better reputation among audiophiles. But I haven't tried their true wireless
They sound very different but each very good. Its like a Ferrarri and lambo. The Soundcore however has a better low end. If I could afford them id pick the Sennheiser mtw2 over the Soundcore. That sennheiser sound imaging is very unique and breathtaking
Soundcore obliterate MTW2 in quality/quantity of bass and microphone quality for calls. Mids, tonality of voices, treble and overall sound quality is much better on MTW2. Soundstate is almost equal.
My L3Ps replaced my L2Ps almost a month ago, and I am VERY happy with the upgrades, including richer and cleaner sound for listening to music, which is my primary reason for getting these. Because of the excellent battery life, I really never use only one bud in my ear (didn’t with the L2Ps either)-music audio is my reason for purchasing them, phone calls second-zero issues with either. I have some hearing loss between 4 and 8KHz, which makes much of my music listening a muddy experience. Not with the L3Ps-thanks to HearID, the high hats and cymbals are there now in all their glory. And because I’m entrenched in the Apple ecosystem (the AirPods and AirPod Pros, again, sound too dull in the upper frequency bands for me), with multipoint connection, these were a no-brainer! Thanks again for another excellent review!
Hello, I need help here. Huge market confused me a lot. I'm down for two, soundcore Liberty 3 pro & Jabra elite 85 t. I care about sound quality and solid fit into ear. Thanks in advance.
Hey guys Could You compare the Liberty Air 2 Pro with OPPO Enco X. They are priced extremely similar here in India. Would Love to See a Comparison video!
I had an realme buds 2 neo and they fell out of my ear. And a car crushed them. I tried apple airpods 3 and they were so fitted in my ear. So my question is. Are these good and secure in the ear? And how about Liberty 4 NC
ok , so I'm serious I've been in the market and on the YT looking for a good pair of BT Earbuds, I'm all for the sound, and I was about to hit the trigger for the Sennheiser TW M2, but then I found these Liberty everywhere on the TY reviews, I think after what I just watch in your channel I can say that you are the real Honest people around , for you how you compare the sound and Liberty EQ , can it pair to the Sennheisers? I think that I rather sacrifice single Mode and multipoint for a GOOD sound, but I'm interested on your opinion
Great video guys. The issue about functionality while using one bud is a critical quality of life thing, and the price-based bias for reviewers is pretty interesting. I think I’ll suck it up and buy the XM4s but goddamn I’m so confused
Honestly, I've been burned multiple times by youtube reviews of soundcore buds, I've never liked them. It's probably a personal preference thing but I find their chosen sound signature terrible. I couldn't even sell the Liberty Air 2 Pro second hand in my country. I will say though, I do agree with you guys on the tips sizes provided, I've never seen a company provide that many in-the-box before. (I currently use the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, just as point of reference) I don't know what I'm missing here but i just don't find anything to appreciate about this brand, but to be clear this is my own opinion and I am not forcing it on anyone. I am just genuinely curious.
I think a lot of people love the fact that there are so many different customization options, especially at prices $170 or below. Personally, I love it, but I get where you’re coming from. Did you try all of the EQ options?
I also have been burnt by bs RUclips reviews of Chinese tws (though my 1more stylish is an awesome backup set that's 2 yrs old). Bought and love my Bose QC earbuds. Bought 2 pairs lightly used. The list of issues with these will only keep growing with more testing. The Bose are built like tanks
My bose qc buds will be at my house today! I'm looking forward to the balanced sound profile and textural/tonal fidelity. Would you happen to notice any difference in how well musical instruments are portrayed on the Bose versus the L3P? I find most earbuds to be way too tailored towards hip-hop with all of the bass and underwhelming treble/mids. None of the buds I've tried thus far could reproduce an electric guitar or bass guitar, or any of those natural instruments the way I know they're meant to sound; more often than not the chorus portions of a majority of my songs are turned into this muddy clashing of elements while the boom of the bass and some high hats would be preserved. This makes finding a sweet spot EQ for the buds I've tested (the Liberty 2 pros and 3 pros included) impossible because nothing I do can breathe the right amount of life into jazz, rock, metal, blues, classical, synthwave, or 70s/80s music. I'll admit the L3P come fairly close in terms of richness and clarity (not to mention there isn't any terrible distortion or a lousy Soundstage like the Sony XM4s have) but still miss the mark because I know how the crunchy low riffs in "Bad Boys Running Wild" is supposed to sound or that the guitar tone in classic rock songs shouldn't be so mushy-sounding.
I think the Sennheiser CX Plus and Momentum 2 do very well with overdrive and distortion. I know what you mean about that crunchy electric guitar sound!
I sent mine back for refund. Multipoint connection keeps breaking down, LDAC never works, fit is a missing for me too. I liked the ANC but the transparency mode is really bad. Sound is good but I had to custom my EQ rather high on all the settings. This is all very unfortunate because I own the liberty 2 Pro and they have been very consistent for almost 2 years and I love the sound of it.
Thank you, I've been looking and searching for some good Earbuds and the most important thing to me is the sound and I was ready to get the Sennheiser CX plus because after I did my research the sound on them seems to be the best but also there is no wireless charging so now im thinking about getting these because they seems to have more features but my Question is what u guys think got the better sound Quality the CX plus or the Liberty 3 pro ?
Perspective: I'm coming from a 2 year old AirPods Pro that barely last 3 hours. Now, I'm torn between the Liberty 3 Pros and the Sennheiser CX Plus. However, the price for L3Ps are high because they aren't sold officially here in the Philippines, which means I have to buy them from an overseas seller, and there's no warranty support if anything goes wrong. I also heard that the sound quality on the CX Plus is better. Which transparency mode do you guys feel is more natural?
Hi Miguel, I have both and so far, the Sennheiser CX Plus sound better to me (pure sound quality wise), even the though the Soundcore Liberty 3 arguably has the best APP and EQ options of any wireless earbuds on the market. I'm also experiencing audio clipping (distortion) in the speakers whenever I reach 90-100% volume on phone when the ANC or transparency modes are used on the Liberty 3 Pros. I'm thinking about returning the Liberty 3 Pros. I've had them for 3 weeks now. I've had the Sennheiser's for 3 days.
Can you use your custom hear ID with a preset equalizer like you could in the soundcore Liberty two Pro +'s?. For instance I want to add Rock on top of my custom here ID. But I can't figure out how
In liberty air3, its possible to do that. I use it my self, hearid combine with custom eq(mine usually flat). I mean, who knows it will work the same as LA3pro
The bad transparency mode swayed my decision to not pick these up while they are $20 off today. I use my transparency mode on the Sonys and it is excellent. This lets me keep them in all day. I need to talk to people and use the phone all day for work. Thanks again!
It is a great sounding airbud the biggest problem is the battery life and you cannot access the app while on a call with ANC off the bud last up to 3-4 hours on 50% volume I don’t have LDAC enabled because I’m on iPhone I tried to reset the buds same issue my other airbud soundcore life note e last full 8 hours on a 100% volume and last longer with 50% I think the liberty 3 pro has a software issue
I seem to be getting a lot of interference with mine. Like when I'm listening to something they blip out for a second. Especially when I near my home in an apt complex. I don't notice it when I'm away from the complex. I've tried turning off several devices nearby just their bT and wifi and power entirely. Nothing stops it. I love them otherwise but I might have to return them. Oh and also lag/latency has always been pretty bad. Among the worst I've ever seen.
It's strange, I also found that the treble was very aggressive out of the box, and the HearID test made it even worse. After a few days however, they sound pretty amazing and the bass is sublime and real. A lot of audiophiles say that "breaking in" headphones is a myth, but apparently these do need some exercise out of the box. ✌️ &❤️
Agreed, just bought them 2 days ago. They need time for the internals to "warm up" I absolutely love these buds. Especially after buying the galaxy buds pro at $193 usd. They did not say in my ears at all. I would recommend SOUNDCORE to any and every one. Their products are amazing.
Does anyone know if Soundcore plans on continuing developing their Air line? I'd hate to buy these only for the Soundcore Liberty Air 3 to come out in a couple months.
What wireless earbuds would you recommend under 100 that are vest overall value? There's so many to choose from I can't decide. The ones I have are called "jam" and they are extremely annoying to connect to Bluetooth and sound is meh
Thank you really appreciate your channel. These are just too big for me don't want to deal with that anymore. My daily drivers are the JBL Reflect Minis talk about EQ control these things are for real. Thanks again much appreciated. 🤔🇺🇸👍💯
LOL! I was a little worried when I first saw the video title, as I just received my *L3 Pro's* yesterday! 😱😄 While it's only been a day, they turned out to be everything I'd hoped for!¹ I'm temporarily using a _Comply_ foam ear tip, but I had no problem with the original tips. I just like the _Comply's_ wax guard feature. I really couldn't afford to buy these, and had to sell my *Sony WF-1000XM4's* right away, as a result. You're right about the customization. It's not terribly straightforward. And normally I eat that stuff up. I was looking forward to the "pro" presets. But since I was blown away by the out-of-the-box sound, it's just more out of curiosity now. 😁The irony is not lost on me that you put up my *DHRME* acronym comment (thanks, btw!☺️), which also happened to include me saying how much _"I love my Sony WF-1000XM4's!"_ 😋🤦🏼♂️ I do love them. But I still had a problem with the fit. It was the number-one reason I continued to buy _all types_ of earbud tips.² Sadly, I was never quite as blown away as everybody else by the Sonys (and I'm a big Sony fan). I've had to adjust the EQ virtually every time l changed music styles. But once I did, they were the best sounding earbuds I had. Ultimately, with these *L3 Pro's* I finally found the sound signature that's perfect for me!🥰 Along with a fantastic fit…again, _for me._ And hey, at least I'll still have my Sony _WH_ XM4's.🎧 _As always, you guys are the best!_ ··•✺•·· ¹─ My one regret (possibly too harsh a word) is that I probably should have gotten the black, as the fog gray is a little flashy for me. I picked this color specifically to stand out from all my other earbuds. ² ─ And I have some very _specific_ opinions on the subject as a result. 🧐😏
Honestly, my only con about these buds is how "slack" the wingtip become after a while, and they end up not even staying in place and moving all around when i put them in my ears..... I need a replacement for those asap now.
Good balanced review. I was an early adopter of these because most earbuds don't stay in for me. These do. The transparency is shaky, but the fit and sound quality outstanding.Great for working hard in noisy environments with great battery life.

@@michaelgilbert7841 well since u own more than hundreds, i think i can believe you. Made me wanted more to have one
Transparency was updated this week. Almost like no buds in now. Much better

I have had mine maybe 5 months. Use them a couple hours in the morning. The right one isnt charging. The first time, i thought it was me. So im very diligent to make sure they're in the case right. Well its not me! Any advise will be appreciated, PLEASE 😊
Spot on! Exactly how I feel about these. When I first got them, I was like why hasn't anyone mention about putting back them into the case?! No big deal but still, comparatively inconvenient.
I love them but this case annoys me a great deal when putting them back in and having them disconnect from my phone. I still love them and will keep them. The sound and features outweigh my gripes.
Actually that's being mentioned all over the place
@@figfang is it?? Tbh I only watched all the earlier videos not the recent, and really I've never heard any reviews mentioned that at that period
@@victorchew2589 Its not a big deal tbh. Idk why you want to make an issue out of it.
I just found out about this channel today i love these guys... Subbed

Made
Easy
the way of puttin the earbuds in the case is difficult. When I receive a call, I have to manually press the earplug and I find difficult to press the button. I prefer physical buttons. and the last thing they don't have a vocal assistant for the different mode (connected, anc, transparency). I don't find the anc that great either. but the sound is awesome
I find the case too slippery for my hands. Dropped it many times trying to open the lid. I read the previous gen had a rubberized feel, like the Truengine 3 SE. That should have been retained.
I actually like the XM3 case. Nice and chunky and I too have BIG pockets!
1. The price... Now the price keep changing from $159 to $129. It seems to be rotated so if you waited for couple more weeks the price will drop again. At $129, this is definitely the best bang for the buck.
2. The size... I always carry these earbuds plus one more pair of different brand in my front pocket and never have any problem.
Noow it 99
$99 now
Honestly for me they're really not loud enough and the treble and bass is pretty lacking compared to the jaybird Vista 1, is there a setting I'm missing or something cause so far they're not that good
Any one know how to re connect the soundcore pro 3? They where connected but just stopped and now won't re connect
Really useful review thank you, I didn't know about any of these negative aspects. The large case and the buds not always going in correctly is enough to deter me from buying.
Does it make a pressure in ear canal due to ANC.? Or other link of air fatigue. I guess their is no pressure releasing mesh chamber. Plz do reply sir ..!!!!
I don't even understand your review. You said the sound library pro is good or not very good. Also you said on your title from your review don't buy them. Because i am a little bit confused here. Please tell me are these library pro earbuds any or not.
They're good. These are just stone reasons why they may not be for you. Chuck out or video comparing it with the Sony XM4.
how about 1more comfortbuds mini?
Did the new firmware update change the ANC/transparency mode?
I read about how the update improved the transparency mode on Reddit
Just wanted to know it from you guys.
It has definitely improved the transparency mode. Just a nobody who owns them 😅
@@YataLocK every feedback counts😂
Any other improvements?
@@karthikratheesh not really. Lol they need general improvements but overall is solid
This is what i look for when deciding to invest in a item, honest criticism and understanding trade offs.Much appreciated. Here's my sub
Any updates on the liberty 3 pro. Heard there's a few updates. Can u do a review again?
Hey DHRME, can u please advice, if they are good choice for a GYM ? If they will fit proper, and dont get broke because of sweating (water) ? Thanks for advice.
They're pretty decent. Not the most waterproof out there and we never got a good fit, but everyone's ears are different, so what works for us, may not work for you...
It would be really nice if you could set the music to pause when switching to transparency mode. The only time I use it is when I want to talk to someone.
I want to buy these for better sound, but my Soundpeats H1 sound good to me........What do have to say about me wanting to get the Liberty Pro 3 ?
Great review. One of the few that brings up the issues with the earbuds. I had the liberty 2 pros before switching to pixel buds and due to constant disconnects, I'm ready to make the switch back
Great video... I like that gave some points from the other perspective but then rolled it back around by saying you still thought they were awesome and worth it.
How big is the issue with them not turning off when in the case? It's the reason I'm dumping my Sennheiser Momentum TW3s as they had this issue and it only got worse over time.
That sounds like a different problem.
These it's purely physical, where the case can be closed even if the buds aren't seated properly
Liberty 3 Pros or Momentum TW 2? I care mostly about sound.
Well the good thing about SoundCore is you can EQ the f*** out of it. I'm not sure if that's the case with Sennheiser. Sennheiser certainly has a better reputation among audiophiles. But I haven't tried their true wireless
They sound very different but each very good. Its like a Ferrarri and lambo. The Soundcore however has a better low end. If I could afford them id pick the Sennheiser mtw2 over the Soundcore. That sennheiser sound imaging is very unique and breathtaking
Soundcore obliterate MTW2 in quality/quantity of bass and microphone quality for calls. Mids, tonality of voices, treble and overall sound quality is much better on MTW2. Soundstate is almost equal.
Great videos guys!
A question for anyone familiar with the L3Pros. Are you able to mute the mic when you are on a call?
Cheers Nav! Nope, you can’t mute from the buds.
My L3Ps replaced my L2Ps almost a month ago, and I am VERY happy with the upgrades, including richer and cleaner sound for listening to music, which is my primary reason for getting these. Because of the excellent battery life, I really never use only one bud in my ear (didn’t with the L2Ps either)-music audio is my reason for purchasing them, phone calls second-zero issues with either. I have some hearing loss between 4 and 8KHz, which makes much of my music listening a muddy experience. Not with the L3Ps-thanks to HearID, the high hats and cymbals are there now in all their glory. And because I’m entrenched in the Apple ecosystem (the AirPods and AirPod Pros, again, sound too dull in the upper frequency bands for me), with multipoint connection, these were a no-brainer! Thanks again for another excellent review!
4 and 8 Mhz? I hope you meant khz... or you are perhaps a spider? ;-)
@@jurgenblumenschein7141 - LOL, yes, kHz. I’ll update my comment to reflect the correct info. Thanks!
LG tone free ufp9 vs Sony linkbuds s vs soundcore liberty 3 pro - Which one is better ?
Please rate
Hello, I need help here. Huge market confused me a lot. I'm down for two, soundcore Liberty 3 pro & Jabra elite 85 t. I care about sound quality and solid fit into ear. Thanks in advance.
Liberty 3 Pro.
@@DHRME thank you. I got the buds. Only negative point, unnecessary high treble default EQ settings in app is very misleading
Yes, the sound is the only thing I didn't like about the L3P. Try using their flat preset as a starting point.
Omg, thank you for this, helps a lot!
Mifo seems to be making really good buds consistently. You guys tried them yet?
Nope. First I'm hearing of them TBH!
Hey guys Could You compare the Liberty Air 2 Pro with OPPO Enco X. They are priced extremely similar here in India. Would Love to See a Comparison video!
I had an realme buds 2 neo and they fell out of my ear. And a car crushed them. I tried apple airpods 3 and they were so fitted in my ear. So my question is. Are these good and secure in the ear? And how about Liberty 4 NC
I have Liberty 3 pro for 4 month now and it’s amazing considering I switched from Sony 1000 for these
Great job at being fair and objective! Short but informative. I'll have to check out some of your other stuff.
Thanks Mitchel!
You're welcome.
oh, transparency mode is actually good now. after firmware update yesterday!
still no single-bud transparency eh?
Your recomandation only soundwise SoundCore Liberty 3 or senn cx ?
ok , so I'm serious I've been in the market and on the YT looking for a good pair of BT Earbuds, I'm all for the sound, and I was about to hit the trigger for the Sennheiser TW M2, but then I found these Liberty everywhere on the TY reviews, I think after what I just watch in your channel I can say that you are the real Honest people around , for you how you compare the sound and Liberty EQ , can it pair to the Sennheisers? I think that I rather sacrifice single Mode and multipoint for a GOOD sound, but I'm interested on your opinion
Hey Bianca. Sure. I think th de stack up quite well against the Sennheisers
What is the best headphone for calls?
Great video as always. Thanks for the content 🙏
Great job gentlemen.
This are great for me. I tried them and so far no complains
Great video guys. The issue about functionality while using one bud is a critical quality of life thing, and the price-based bias for reviewers is pretty interesting. I think I’ll suck it up and buy the XM4s but goddamn I’m so confused
Honestly, I've been burned multiple times by youtube reviews of soundcore buds, I've never liked them. It's probably a personal preference thing but I find their chosen sound signature terrible. I couldn't even sell the Liberty Air 2 Pro second hand in my country. I will say though, I do agree with you guys on the tips sizes provided, I've never seen a company provide that many in-the-box before.
(I currently use the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, just as point of reference)
I don't know what I'm missing here but i just don't find anything to appreciate about this brand, but to be clear this is my own opinion and I am not forcing it on anyone. I am just genuinely curious.
This brand provides amazing value and checks a lot of boxes on paper. But it's fine that you don't like the sound signature - not for everyone!
I think a lot of people love the fact that there are so many different customization options, especially at prices $170 or below. Personally, I love it, but I get where you’re coming from. Did you try all of the EQ options?
I also have been burnt by bs RUclips reviews of Chinese tws (though my 1more stylish is an awesome backup set that's 2 yrs old). Bought and love my Bose QC earbuds. Bought 2 pairs lightly used. The list of issues with these will only keep growing with more testing. The Bose are built like tanks
My bose qc buds will be at my house today! I'm looking forward to the balanced sound profile and textural/tonal fidelity. Would you happen to notice any difference in how well musical instruments are portrayed on the Bose versus the L3P? I find most earbuds to be way too tailored towards hip-hop with all of the bass and underwhelming treble/mids. None of the buds I've tried thus far could reproduce an electric guitar or bass guitar, or any of those natural instruments the way I know they're meant to sound; more often than not the chorus portions of a majority of my songs are turned into this muddy clashing of elements while the boom of the bass and some high hats would be preserved. This makes finding a sweet spot EQ for the buds I've tested (the Liberty 2 pros and 3 pros included) impossible because nothing I do can breathe the right amount of life into jazz, rock, metal, blues, classical, synthwave, or 70s/80s music. I'll admit the L3P come fairly close in terms of richness and clarity (not to mention there isn't any terrible distortion or a lousy Soundstage like the Sony XM4s have) but still miss the mark because I know how the crunchy low riffs in "Bad Boys Running Wild" is supposed to sound or that the guitar tone in classic rock songs shouldn't be so mushy-sounding.
I think the Sennheiser CX Plus and Momentum 2 do very well with overdrive and distortion. I know what you mean about that crunchy electric guitar sound!
I sent mine back for refund. Multipoint connection keeps breaking down, LDAC never works, fit is a missing for me too. I liked the ANC but the transparency mode is really bad. Sound is good but I had to custom my EQ rather high on all the settings. This is all very unfortunate because I own the liberty 2 Pro and they have been very consistent for almost 2 years and I love the sound of it.
To say that ANC doesn't work with only one bud in the ear - is just a bummer! Hey man, the other ear is open so what ANC are you looking for?
What about the mic?
Why would you want to use ANC or transparency mode with one ear bud? 🤔
Some people do 🤷♂️
Finally a RUclips Channel that got a soul. Chapeau to that one
Thank you, I've been looking and searching for some good Earbuds and the most important thing to me is the sound and I was ready to get the Sennheiser CX plus because after I did my research the sound on them seems to be the best but also there is no wireless charging so now im thinking about getting these because they seems to have more features but my Question is what u guys think got the better sound Quality the CX plus or the Liberty 3 pro ?
New video dropping soon, stay subscribed. ;)
What about compared to the Sennheiser momentum true wireless ?
Perspective: I'm coming from a 2 year old AirPods Pro that barely last 3 hours. Now, I'm torn between the Liberty 3 Pros and the Sennheiser CX Plus. However, the price for L3Ps are high because they aren't sold officially here in the Philippines, which means I have to buy them from an overseas seller, and there's no warranty support if anything goes wrong. I also heard that the sound quality on the CX Plus is better. Which transparency mode do you guys feel is more natural?
Hi Miguel, I have both and so far, the Sennheiser CX Plus sound better to me (pure sound quality wise), even the though the Soundcore Liberty 3 arguably has the best APP and EQ options of any wireless earbuds on the market. I'm also experiencing audio clipping (distortion) in the speakers whenever I reach 90-100% volume on phone when the ANC or transparency modes are used on the Liberty 3 Pros. I'm thinking about returning the Liberty 3 Pros. I've had them for 3 weeks now. I've had the Sennheiser's for 3 days.
I have had them for close to a year. I had the Pro 2 before and they fit better and are built much stronger. Better battery life as well.
I got them , I love them .. one ear transparency or ANC ... lol why ?
Can you use your custom hear ID with a preset equalizer like you could in the soundcore Liberty two Pro +'s?. For instance I want to add Rock on top of my custom here ID. But I can't figure out how
In liberty air3, its possible to do that. I use it my self, hearid combine with custom eq(mine usually flat). I mean, who knows it will work the same as LA3pro
this guys beard is BEYOND EPIC! HOLY.COW
3:02 who needs ANC when listening to only one bud while the other ear is completely open 😃?
The bad transparency mode swayed my decision to not pick these up while they are $20 off today.
I use my transparency mode on the Sonys and it is excellent. This lets me keep them in all day.
I need to talk to people and use the phone all day for work.
Thanks again!
@( HiT ) is there a white noise with Transparency mode on?
This is much better since the update. Works well for me
How does this compare to the edifier neobuds pro 2 in terms of sound, anc and transparency mode
Thank you for the updated review. I still love my Sony XM4s. They sound incredible. 😏
It is a great sounding airbud the biggest problem is the battery life and you cannot access the app while on a call with ANC off the bud last up to 3-4 hours on 50% volume I don’t have LDAC enabled because I’m on iPhone I tried to reset the buds same issue my other airbud soundcore life note e last full 8 hours on a 100% volume and last longer with 50% I think the liberty 3 pro has a software issue
Sony Linkbuds S vs Liberty 3 Pro. Sony is 15$ cheaper. Which one would you prefer?
I seem to be getting a lot of interference with mine. Like when I'm listening to something they blip out for a second. Especially when I near my home in an apt complex. I don't notice it when I'm away from the complex. I've tried turning off several devices nearby just their bT and wifi and power entirely. Nothing stops it. I love them otherwise but I might have to return them. Oh and also lag/latency has always been pretty bad. Among the worst I've ever seen.
Thanks for the info. Was looking at these but slightly put off now. Are you going to test the Technics AZ60?
I think we have to!!
Awesome. For me at the moment it's either the Sony or the Technics. The spec sheet says Technics but I'm really keen to know about sound quality.
It's strange, I also found that the treble was very aggressive out of the box, and the HearID test made it even worse. After a few days however, they sound pretty amazing and the bass is sublime and real. A lot of audiophiles say that "breaking in" headphones is a myth, but apparently these do need some exercise out of the box. ✌️ &❤️
That'd be your ears adjusting lol
Mental burn in / adjustment
Agreed, just bought them 2 days ago. They need time for the internals to "warm up" I absolutely love these buds. Especially after buying the galaxy buds pro at $193 usd. They did not say in my ears at all. I would recommend SOUNDCORE to any and every one. Their products are amazing.
Does anyone know if Soundcore plans on continuing developing their Air line? I'd hate to buy these only for the Soundcore Liberty Air 3 to come out in a couple months.
What wireless earbuds would you recommend under 100 that are vest overall value? There's so many to choose from I can't decide. The ones I have are called "jam" and they are extremely annoying to connect to Bluetooth and sound is meh
I am looking for an earbud that has single mode with good ANC and Transparency. Any suggestions?
Great video. Could you guys review the 1more evo and compare it with the Liberty 3 pro?
Kind regards
Already done!
Hey DHRME. How/Where can I get these in India?
I was about to buy them. I need loudness and bass. What do you guys recommend. Earbuds and head phones
Jabra elite 7 pro or liberty 3 pro?
I’m listening to this with the Soundcore buds and they are great, had sennheiser buds and they were fine but these buds are great
I watched this video, then bought the Liberty 3 Pro's anyway... zero regrets. Would buy them again.
These or the Space A40?
These
@@DHRME 💪👍🙏
Thank you really appreciate your channel. These are just too big for me don't want to deal with that anymore. My daily drivers are the JBL Reflect Minis talk about EQ control these things are for real. Thanks again much appreciated. 🤔🇺🇸👍💯
What about your choice if you could have the Sony WF-1000XM4 for 200 euros, all new ?
The Soundcore still do a few things better - sound, dual device. But it starts getting very close.
@@DHRME Thank you !
Can you help me .. I'm confused ..i wanna buy a earbuds ..I'm bass head person .. please
This video speaks sooo much truth and healthy skepticism!
And with all your skepticism theyre still the best headphones for the price
The two complaints I'm taking into consideration are the charging issue and the aggressive treble out of the box.
Love the slp3 only thing is the ear wings start to slip off after a while of use and i used them everyday
LOL! I was a little worried when I first saw the video title, as I just received my *L3 Pro's* yesterday! 😱😄
While it's only been a day, they turned out to be everything I'd hoped for!¹ I'm temporarily using a _Comply_ foam ear tip, but I had no problem with the original tips. I just like the _Comply's_ wax guard feature.
I really couldn't afford to buy these, and had to sell my *Sony WF-1000XM4's* right away, as a result.
You're right about the customization. It's not terribly straightforward. And normally I eat that stuff up. I was looking forward to the "pro" presets. But since I was blown away by the out-of-the-box sound, it's just more out of curiosity now.
😁The irony is not lost on me that you put up my *DHRME* acronym comment (thanks, btw!☺️), which also happened to include me saying how much _"I love my Sony WF-1000XM4's!"_ 😋🤦🏼♂️
I do love them. But I still had a problem with the fit. It was the number-one reason I continued to buy _all types_ of earbud tips.²
Sadly, I was never quite as blown away as everybody else by the Sonys (and I'm a big Sony fan). I've had to adjust the EQ virtually every time l changed music styles. But once I did, they were the best sounding earbuds I had.
Ultimately, with these *L3 Pro's* I finally found the sound signature that's perfect for me!🥰 Along with a fantastic fit…again, _for me._ And hey, at least I'll still have my Sony _WH_ XM4's.🎧
_As always, you guys are the best!_
··•✺•··
¹─ My one regret (possibly too harsh a word) is that I probably should have gotten the black, as the fog gray is a little flashy for me. I picked this color specifically to stand out from all my other earbuds.
² ─ And I have some very _specific_ opinions on the subject as a result. 🧐😏
So, with one is better for sound, with HiFi on like Tidal apps
Honestly, my only con about these buds is how "slack" the wingtip become after a while, and they end up not even staying in place and moving all around when i put them in my ears..... I need a replacement for those asap now.
