What reviewers said
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
SoundPEATS Air5 Pro+
The SoundPEATS Air5 Pro+ earbuds pack a dense array of high-end features, including adaptive ANC, hybrid drivers, and a wide range of premium Bluetooth codecs, all for a budget-friendly price. While they deliver a rich, warm sound that shines at higher volumes and offer solid call quality, their practical battery life with ANC active is a notable drawback, making them better suited for shorter commutes than marathon listening sessions.
- Pro:Extensive codec support including LDAC and aptX Lossless
- Pro:Adaptive ANC and clear 6-mic call quality
- Pro:Warm, detailed sound that improves with volume
- Con:Battery life is short, especially with ANC on
- Con:Sound quality is underwhelming at lower volumes
- Con:Touch controls may require some adjustment
