Is the Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro worth the upgrade from the Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro?
Verdict
Downgrade
The Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro actually scores 6.0 points below the Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro, so on aggregate review consensus this is a step backwards. The gains are concentrated in battery (7.5 to 8.0). You do give up ground on calls (8.0 to 7.0) and sound (8.5 to 8.0). Worth checking: weight goes 5.5 g to 11 g. It is at least $70 cheaper, so the lower score comes with a saving. Only worth it if a specific feature above matters more to you than overall quality does.
What actually changes
Sub-scores both products have, on the same 0-10 scale. Bars extend right for a gain, left for a loss.
