Anker Liberty 4 NC, Adaptive Noise Cancelling Wireless Earbuds

Not much to say these are fantastic they are far better than my liberty 5 earbuds a pure rich sound easy fit and fully managed by the soundcore app you have the option of a fit test and to test your hearing the noise cancelling function works well for me and so far I’ve not had the charging issues that I have with the liberty 5 I wish I’d bought these first they are so much better

Pixel Phone users, please read, especially Pixel 7 series and 7 Pro. These earbuds are fantastic, however I was experiencing fairly regular, brief 2 to 4 second disconnections. I returned two sets due to this. When purchasing a totally different brand and experiencing the same issues, I thought I’d investigate possible phones issues. Google didn’t show anything wrong with the Pixel series, so I decided to use the “search.brave.com” engine and that’s when I found the information, to totally change my experience to exceptional. No more disconnections and just pure fabulousness with Soundcore and have decided to share this with others who may be experiencing similar issues The Pixel 7 Pro experiences widespread Bluetooth audio issues, including audio crackling, random disconnections, and audio sync loss, primarily triggered by system updates like Android 14 and the Android 16 Beta. Users report that earbuds often stop playing audio or cut out shortly after the screen locks, even when the device remains connected. To enable developer options, use youtube and search, “enable developer option pixel android” Key Troubleshooting Fixes: (use settings search to easily find these options) • Disable Hardware Offload: Go to Developer Options > Networking/Bluetooth and toggle Disable Bluetooth A2DP hardware offload to On; this is the most frequently cited fix for crackling and disconnection bugs. • Adjust AVRCP Version: In Developer Options, set Bluetooth AVRCP Version to 1.5 to improve stability with certain earbuds. • Clear Cache: Clear the cache for the Bluetooth Legacy App and Bluetooth App via Settings > Apps > Show System. • Disable LE Audio: Turn off Bluetooth LE Audio in Developer Options if your earbuds do not support it or if it causes instability. • Reset Settings: Perform a Reset Wi-Fi, Mobile & Bluetooth in System > Reset Options if basic pairing fails. These issues are often attributed to software bugs in the Tensor chipset optimization or conflicts with third-party apps, requiring manual configuration changes in developer settings rather than a native system fix. After using the last option, “Reset Settings” my pixel watch also got disconnected. To reconnect without resetting and loosing all information, I did this: If the watch does not appear in the Pixel Watch app automatically, follow these steps to reset the connection without losing data on the watch: • On the Watch: Navigate to Settings > System > Transfer Watch. This option allows you to reconnect the watch to a different or previously reset phone. • On the Phone: Open the Pixel Watch app, tap the watch icon in the top left, and follow the on-screen instructions to pair.

I’ve been using Anker audio products since 2016 and have owned a few different pairs of their earphones over the years, so I’ve seen the brand evolve from simple wired Bluetooth models to their more advanced true-wireless lineup. Comparing my older Anker SoundBuds Surge from 2019 with my latest purchase, the Anker Liberty 4 NC from 2025, I can say the newer pair offers a big jump in features, design and modern convenience — but not a dramatic improvement in actual sound quality. They’re fine, they function well, but considering the hype around them, they could have been better. The SoundBuds Surge were a surprisingly strong pair for their time. They delivered warm, enjoyable sound with a natural tone that worked especially well with acoustic music. The Bluetooth connection was reliable, always pairing instantly, and the comfort was excellent for long sessions or gym use. Even today, in pure listening enjoyment, they still hold up. The Liberty 4 NC, on the other hand, clearly win in terms of features. The case is excellent with its satisfying magnetic click, the indicator lights are helpful, the design feels modern, and the adaptive noise cancelling is genuinely impressive. The ANC cuts out wind, traffic and general background noise very effectively. Add to that wireless charging, longer battery life, multipoint connection and the Soundcore app it’s a much more advanced and convenient product overall. Comfort is good too; they sit well in the ear for me. However, sound quality is ultimately my priority, and this is where the Liberty 4 NC fall short. For a product praised so heavily by YouTubers, reviewers and influencers, the actual sound profile is nowhere near as impressive as the reputation suggests. A lot of that praise feels exaggerated. Anker offers EQ controls, hearing tests and presets, but none of it solves the core issue: the sound just isn’t consistently good. The bass can be boomy, the mids and highs can become muddy, the soundstage feels flat. I tried multiple EQ setups, including the calibration test, but nothing made them consistently satisfying. Every now and then they sound great but those moments are rare. At this price point I’m not expecting perfection, but I am expecting clean, balanced, enjoyable audio by default. And honestly, cheaper earbuds including budget models from brands like JLab in the £15–20 range can sound clearer and more natural than these in some cases. If someone doesn’t care much about sound quality or doesn’t notice audio differences, these earbuds will seem more than fine. But if you value good sound, you might feel underwhelmed.

After getting used to the sound in my quality (and reasonably expensive) PC headphones, I wanted something compact to take travelling that could do my favourite music justice and block out the noise when on a plane, in a busy train station, etc. I had a pair of budget earbuds whose sound quality was adequate but nothing to write home about, and a noise cancellation mode that was so ineffective I often had to physically check whether or not it was turned on. Not so with these. The noise cancellation is impressive; white-noise-like sounds like air conditioning, engine noise, rain on windows etc. vanish almost entirely, and intermittent mid-range sounds like people talking become muffled and indistinct like they're happening a few rooms away in a house with thick walls. The clarity of sound when playing music is great too; my music library has a fair range of genres and these earbuds seem to do well across the board in terms of clarity of reproduction. The companion app has a variety of EQ presets to choose from and a simple but serviceable custom EQ builder that lets you save multiple bespoke profiles. There's also the "HearID" feature which gets you to choose your favourite out of various music clips to determine what you like and build a custom EQ. I found this reasonable accurate but there's no way to test it on your own music until you've finished the process so I found a couple of tracks later that revealed something about the HearID profile that I didn't like - but, happily, you can go back in and edit your HearID curve to correct for this. I found the EQ settings to be very effective, which means the right EQ can make things sound fantastic, but also means a bad EQ setting can make things sound terrible - if you listen to a wide range of styles you may want to leave the EQ on flat, or else have a few presets and get used to swapping frequently. There's also the option for 3D surround sound mode, which does broaden the sound stage quite impressively but I found on certain things it can introduce audio artifacts - some vocals pick up a slight edge that makes them sound like someone singing through a tube - these are usually minor but sometimes annoying, but you don't lose much by disabling the 3D mode. When the noise cancellation is running you may notice a very slight white noise, but this is only really detectable when whatever you're listening to is very quiet or has periods of silence, and it's pretty faint. At the other end of the scale, these earbuds can get very loud for those who like it that way - but if you don't, the app has an adjustable volume limiter you can enable to keep it within your comfort levels. All in all, I was very impressed with their performance given the reasonable price point - my old "budget" earbuds were only 25% cheaper than these, and are completely blown away in comparison. A solid buy for anyone looking for quality sound and effective noise cancellation without breaking the bank - and worth noting they seem to be frequently discounted (they were down at £55 when I bought them) so keep an eye out for that.

I came across these earphones as one of the limited time deals on Amazon. I already owned a pair of the beats studio buds but thought I'd get a 'spare' pair with a different design. These exceeded expectation. The sound is crisp and immersive and customisable with soundcore's EQ. They even use tests to take into account your hearing preferences. The earphones have a range of active noise cancelling options. You can choose to have the ANC adapt to the environment or based on the transport mode you find yourself using. Alternatively you can set the degree of noise cancellation from 1 - weak to 5- strong on the app. There is also an option for a transparency mode that allows more sound from the environment. Whilst this isn't as transparent as I'd like, it does a good job at letting in important noises such as car horns or bells and is transparent enough to have a conversation with somebody face to face. The wind noise reduction is excellent and was a feature that trumps the beats studio buds I have. I am able to still hear music well whilst on transparency mode on a windy day. The earphones feature dual mode on Bluetooth which means that I can connect two devices to it at any given time. I am able to answer calls from work and listen to music from my phone. The Bluetooth also supports the LDAC codec (big +++ if you're an android phone user) which allows for higher quality sound (bear in mind you must actively select this and download the software for this in the soundcore app). The earphones themselves fit great. I was at first skeptical but they seem to fit snug without overcrowding the ear and come with a few different sizes of ear buds. The control functions on the earphones are touch-sensitive and can be customised in the app to suit your preference. From play/pause to switching between Noise Cancellation and transparency mode. The control features make it so that I don't need to take out my phone and can adjust volume, noise cancellation and skip soundtracks on the go. The case could be more durable but feels very premium, especially with the lights that turn on when you place your earphones back in. It is a good size that could fit in any pocket. The battery life on both the earphones and case is exceptional. I got these on sale for about £57 and I couldn't help but feel like they were an absolute steal at this price. They feel premium and offer exceptional sound quality and customisability with a comfortable and secure fit. These are superb value for money and I really think that, even at full price (~£80 I think), they are such a bargain!

Get the app, I’ll explain at the end. My first noise cancellation headphones and I’m happy to say they are affective. Really simple setup. Used straight away with the M size. With secure fit. Look and feel good quality and the case is very smart. *don’t think I’ve seen this mentioned but the open case also makes for a landscape phone stand, which is great for tv watching etc* Arrived charged and a week later I still haven’t needed to plug the case in. The touch control has many options and works well once you’re used to it. Sound quality is the reason I’d dock a star: this is personal, with me listening mainly to podcasts. I find the sound lacking some midrange clarity. It’s what you’re used to, I guess. The sound is absolutely fine and having listened to music to test, the bass is full and probably top end for the price. The Soundcore App takes things up a notch (I already had with a Bluetooth speaker) Not only does it link seamlessly but gives you sound and fit tests. However the live translation it offers is amazing. I tested it with a Spanish work colleague and it was perfect. Not only does it annotate the original but dynamically adjusts the translation to correct structure- then speaks it to you. Also it does this real time and listens to the speaker while taking in the translation delay. Very impressive. Tried with Spanish, Thai and Japanese. As a result, three people have bought these! Wish there was more EQ control for the sound but I can’t not give 5 stars.

Hmm, I give it 3 stars because I have mixed feelings. I'm coming from Samsung Buds FE or Pro, and Bose QC20. I needed something for motorbiking, so: strong ANC + good helmet fit + decent battery life + not breaking the bank if lost. Unfortunately, it didn't fit the bill fully. Positives: value for money - high - definitely there is a lot of goodies for a very decent amount of money durability - I'd say the product feels good, perhaps not the highest quality, but it is definitely a good quality build, compared to the mentioned earlier products, very equal. Didn't check waterproofness, but would expect some (IPx4 on the box) functionality and compatibility - high - no issues in this department, on the contrary, everything works as written on the tin. No connectivity issues. Especially happy with multipoint connection, way better than temperamental Samsung, plenty of configuration options very handsome battery life in my opinion (on stems) - and fast charging Sound-wise, I'm not entirely sure where to put them: I personally don't have anything against. They are very close to Samsung's Buds FE and Pro, Bose QC20 is incomparable because of its ANC, which is very special. I also use Sure Se215 on occasions. I'd say Anker's Soundcore wants to go towards that sound, so more clear-like and well articulated than bassy and muddy (which doesn't mean bass is not there - it is not that pronounced though). Negatives general: a bit fiddly touch zones on stems very mediocre ANC - no comparison to Bose at all, and (this is a bit subjective) Samsung seems to play a few percent better in this department as well (Buds Pro), there is quite a leak of the environment through the tips the ambient mode is a bit weird - I never know how is it different to no-processing at all - it is using some kind of adaptative algorithm, but it doesn't seem to agee with me too good no memory foam tips - the tips which come with the earplugs are the biggest problem in my opinion: they are these thin, rubbery, flimsy tips, which come in many sizes, none of which actually really fit you. If they were just like the ones on Samsung's or Sure... extremally annoying ads when accessing Android widget - seriously, Anker, when accessing the widget!??? And motorbiking-specific negatives: ANC - definitely no-no for motorbiking (small speeds - tolerable, motorway speeds - out of question), regardless of the mode of operation (including special wind reduction mode) tips too flimsy - when under the helmet, the stems seem to be ignoring the tips and touch the ear, which in turn conducts the wind noise through bones - I hate this effect, but I guess it is going to be very personal (I wear rather snug helmets) - neither Samsung or Bose, are experiencing these effects at all in my case though the stems themselves - very fiddly under the helmet, capable of easily repositioning under vibration, opening the ear to the noise. Also, they require multiple attempts to put the helmet on without repositioning (despite using modular helmets), and always fall off when taking the helmet off (which results in crawling the tarmac in search). But I guess this is also personal, as there are other stem-like designs on the market which actually work with me. So, my verdict: for moderate travel, walking, office use - highly recommended as they exhibit decent quality, plenty of goodies for a really good price. But not for extremes of any kind, especially if you are after a very high level of ANC.

First, the good. The battery life is fantastic, they last all day commuting and in the office, easily. The ability to connect to two devices is really useful, super easy to switch between phone and laptop or watch. The sound quality is good but not great. The treble and mid-range are clear enough and there is bass but it lacks dynamism and clarity. It almost sounds a little artificial, like the Loudness setting you used to get on 90s stereos. That said, for the price, a pretty solid sound reproduction. The silicone tips that come with the earphones just didn't work for me. Couldn't get them to stay properly, partiicularly when running. I replaced them with TrueGrip TW-700-B Memory Foam Ear Tips, which fit well and are vastly superior (though the small tips would not stay on the earphones). The real problem with these buds though, is the noise cancelling. Yes, it works well, if you are motionless. But, for some reason, as soon as you start to move, walk or run, the noise cancelling filters out all the bass and the sound goes very tinny. As soon as you stop moving it comes back! I've tried every setting in the app, nothing cures it, except turning off noise cancelling, which kind of defeats the point of having noise cancelling buds. I'll keep these for Teams calls but I'm afraid they are pretty useless for anything else.
