What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Active noise cancellation performs at a high level, comparable to earbuds that cost significantly more
- Battery life is exceptional with ten hours from the earbuds and fifty hours total with the case
- Feature set is comprehensive including LDAC support, multi-point connectivity, wireless charging, and extensive customization options in the app
Reviewers push back
- Microphone call quality is inconsistent, with some reviewers reporting colleagues and callers struggled to hear them clearly, particularly with deeper voices
- Transparency mode is weak, suppressing ambient sound too much and requiring users to remove the buds for conversations
- Touch sensor placement requires precise tapping on the stem or it fails to register the command
Reviewers agree the Liberty 4 NC delivers strong active noise cancellation and exceptional battery life at a low price, though microphone quality and transparency mode disappoint.
Reviewers praise
- Sound quality is strong with good bass and clarity, particularly impressive for an open-style design
- Fit is exceptionally secure during running, jumping, and gym workouts thanks to the wing-tip design
- Microphone performs well for calls in quiet environments, picking up voice clearly
Reviewers push back
- Battery life is only five hours on the earbuds with limited case reserve, below competitors
- Controls are severely limited with no volume adjustment and restricted track navigation
- Case is bulky compared to competitors despite modest battery capacity
Reviewers agree these deliver strong sound and a secure fit for active use, but limited controls, short battery life, and comfort issues hold them back.
Microphone performance varied wildly between reviewers—one reported persistent complaints from colleagues and family, while another had no issues except with WhatsApp call routing
One reviewer found the open design channels ambient sound oddly loud, while others appreciated the awareness it provides
