What reviewers said

Shanling MTW200

The Shanling MTW200 is a budget-friendly true wireless option that excels in call clarity and physical design, offering strong comfort and long battery life. While its audio quality is smooth at moderate volumes, it loses composure when pushed to higher listening levels, making it best suited for those who prefer a more relaxed volume.

  • Pro:Clear phone call performance
  • Pro:Excellent comfort and fit
  • Pro:Great overall battery life
  • Con:Sound quality degrades at high volumes
  • Con:Lacks app support and EQ options
  • Con:No wireless charging or transparency mode

Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro

The Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro pack a hefty feature set into a budget-friendly wireless earbud package, including adaptive noise cancellation, LDAC support, multipoint connectivity, and wireless charging. They deliver solid sound with crisp treble and effective call quality, though the charging case can feel gimmicky and prone to fingerprints, and spatial audio falls short. Overall, they're a well-rounded value pick rather than a flagship-level performer.

  • Pro:Strong active noise cancellation
  • Pro:Wide codec support including LDAC
  • Pro:Multipoint and wireless charging included
  • Con:Charging case feels gimmicky and smudges easily
  • Con:Spatial audio performance is weak
  • Con:Battery life is average for the price
