What reviewers say

Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?

Liberty 4 NC
across 5 reviews
3.4/5
divided
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.
— best for: The Liberty 4 NC suits budget-conscious listeners who prioritize noise cancellation and long battery life for music and video consumption.

The quality of this product is superb. The sound quality is a major upgrade from my soundcore space a40 which lacks bass. This liberty 4 nc has punchy bass, good mids and high trebles which sometimes hurt my ears a little bit lol. The comfort is adequate since it's a stem shaped which will make my ears tired a bit after 2 hours of use. The ANC is good but could be better.

I have had these for about six hours, listening to a few playlists, and I am very impressed by these little buds. The fit is exceptional, snug, and secure with no chance of falling out. The quality is good, with deep bass and clear highs. There is plenty of personalization in the Sony headphones app, and the buttons (proper clicking not touch sensors) are responsive and work very well. I had no pr Mazda56 · sony.co.uk
