Liberty Air 2 Pro

After 2 days research and much sucking of teeth, I ordered the Anker Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Pro via Amazon Prime and they were delivered within 24 hours. The unit comes in a quality box with all the required items. The quick start guide is very easy to follow. I have an iPhone 11 and the supplied corded ear phones do not fit my ears as they continually fall out if I move. The first thing to do was download and register on the Soundcore App. It tells you instantly that the buds need a firmware update which took about 5 minutes to download and install the 1mb file. No sooner had this been installed that they were asking to connect to the phone which was snag-less. I have also connected them to my iPad and Dell laptop without any drama. The App has very easy features to follow and use. I like the “HearID” function where you get a hearing evaluation to personalise the buds to your ears hearing loss. It is like the audio gram test that you take for a medical. I’m 59 so it no surprise that some of the audio range was dulled. The box has 9 sets of interchangeable tips so that when you start the Apps “Tip Fit Test” you can see which set gives you the best ear seal. I ended up with the L+ in both ears. It did help by trimming my ear hair after not getting a good seal notification and they are very comfy. The Active Noise Cancellation feature has 3 settings: Off, Transparency and Noise cancellation. You can toggle thru these either using the App or on the buds touch function. These touch functions are programmable via the App which is very useful. Sound quality is better than my sons Apple AirPods and the battery life is double. The little charging and travel case is small and handy. The 3 led lights on the outside and indicate charge level and sync. I like the auto connect when you place the buds in the case assuring you that the charging connection is made. The little led on each buds also flashed to confirm connection. Other features that are useful: remove one bud to speak to someone or listen fully and the music stops. Put it back in and it starts playing again; the ability to change the Ambient Sound mode from Transport, Indoor, Outdoor, or Custom. You can sit in a noisy area and play with the settings to see which is the most effective. In full Noise Cancel mode with no music playing you can cut out most noises. All you hear is a slight hiss and not as obtrusive as the Bose QC series. It is so affective that you can hear your breathing more that outside sounds. I used the buds all day in full ANR mode using podcasts and music and they were still not needing a charge and my inner ear was not irritated by the presence of the tips. I travel a lot on aircraft and have a set of over ear ANR headphones but after a 7 hour and 14 hour flight the ears are tired of being pressed on. I doubt these Soundcore units will be able to beat the over the ear pure Noise Cancellation without anything playing but I’ll report back on it. The litmus test will be “can that screaming baby still be heard on your 14 hour flight”? I have also used them to answer and make telephone calls and can report that they work superbly. In summary, for £90, I’m happy with them as they easily beat my son’s double the cost Apple AirPods for fit, sound quality, ANR, functionality and personalisation. Update 29 Jul 2021: After a few days of ownership and customising the touch controls to my requirements, I was getting perturbed that I couldn’t get a good seal during the “Tip Test” even when using the largest of the 9 tips. I could occasionally get one side to seal but never the right and they did not feel that secure when in the ear. So, I contacted Anker via the apps “contact us” and after a few confirmation of purchase emails, they sent me a set of larger tips in white. As soon as I put them in I could feel a proper ear seal and the Tip Test saw both indicating a Good Seal. I then did another “Hear ID” and the sound, which I was already happy with, is now amazing! My Daughter has the Sony WF1000XM3s and these Anker buds have a better all round sound. 😁 Hope this review helps you make an informed decision.

I bought these earbuds a good few months ago when my old wired Soundmagic E10 buds gave up due to frayed wires. Those lasted from 2012 to early 2021, and were... Well, magic! As far as sound quality goes, that's what these buds are compared to. It'd be unfair to compair them to a set of true headphones, for example. So. These earbuds. First and foremost, no, you won't look weird wearing them. They actually look pretty discreet and like they're meant to be there. Mine are a dark grey, too. Fitting - easy. They give you loads of "tips" to try on, just find what fits best. The app can test the "seal quality" too, but go with what's comfortable for you. Loads of choice. On the subject of fitting, I don't go running, so I can't tell you how they'd hang on. When walking or doing anything physical though, they just stay put and feel well rooted. I rarely need to adjust them, and when I do, I find it's pointless - they were secure in the first place. Connectivity - simple, easy, and solid. I do get random cut-outs on my phone, but that's heavily modified and running a beta custom OS. A reboot solves it for a few days, so it's a glitch on the phone. My tablet is stock, and these are solid - even ten metres away. It's unbelievable. They've got a more stable connection than my Logitech G933s to my PS4. Battery life. You charge the box, and it charges the buds up when not in use. Everything is extremely lightweight. I do a lot of walking, and use these for up to 90 minutes at a time. I've had the box go without charge for a week, and it charged back up in half an hour. The battery life is absolutely phenomenal. Sound quality. That's the essential part. Now, this is a mixed bag for me, and you might find things a bit different. I have hearing issues, plus partial deafness in my left ear, extending only to bass frequencies. Anything that muddles sound means I find it really grating, and I can't hear lyrics. It's just noise. These earphones excel. When you take them out the box and seat them in your ears, there's a few seconds while they boot up, then glorious silence. They just shut the world out. Fire up a high-quality stream or source, and you've got a tight, rich soundstage. The "HearID" setup is great, but I did tweak it further - the app is great for that - but if they'd add the ability to tweak individual channels and/or psychoacoustic systems, that'd be cracking for those whose ears aren't working quite right! You'll have no problem getting what you want from these earbuds, they're rich across the range. I do find they're a bit harsh at the treble end, and not as clear and "spacey" as the Soundmagic E10s, but it's nothing uncomfortable. I'm just splitting hairs here. Other matters - no more wires. Honestly, I didn't think anything of wires until I got these. I wouldn't go back... In fact, even though I have a perfectly serviceable set of these earbuds, I'd consider splashing out on the very best version right now in addition to this pair. One set for home used with my tablet, the better pair for general use. That's how damn good these are. I bought these at £129, and I see they're presently £99. I don't have any regrets buying them at the price I paid - they're quality, and worth every penny.

I'd never spent more than $100 for head/ear phones. Got this at a crazy Black Friday price. I love the app that helps to customise the pods to my favourite rock genre. I can hear the bass and drums very well -- like it's some rock concert. The noise cancellation really can shut out the ambient noise. Hope this lasts.

Currently, these are all the earbuds I've listened to: Liberty 2, Liberty Air 2 Pro, Life P3, Airpods (3rd Gen), Airpods Pro (2nd gen) [not pro 2s], JLAB Air, JBL Free, and some other no names. Originally, I bought these headphones at the price of $120. When I got them I thought "hey, these are a pretty good value for earbuds with noise cancelling." When compared to normal airpods, I preferred the sound quality of these earbuds. Of course the pros were better in terms of features, and my Liberty 2s were comparable. For all other buds I listed these are much better in terms of sound quality. Let's get into the features: Transparency mode: The normal mode makes your voice feel boomy because of hearing your voice conducted through your cheekbones, but the vocal only is pretty good. This is probably the mode that you see the most difference between these and airpods. It's not the best, but it's usable. Noise Cancellation: Pretty good, blocks out low noise, high noises get through. My roommate snored very loudly and when playing music it was tolerable, but it wasn't enough by itself. However I wouldn't be surprised if listening to the snoring raw was damaging to my ears (yes I know noise cancelling doesn't combat pressure waves, just humor me). I swear I could hear that guy from across the building. Sound Quality: Pretty good. I've owned the m50xs from audio technica and while the Soundstage is not nearly as good, for casual listening I find these enjoyable. What's great about them though I'd the soundcore app has a huge amount of eqs and a customizable eq so you can make it sound the way you want. Also, for Android it does have LDAC support. Battery Life: After over a year of use, it's still pretty good. I get a little over a day of pretty constant listening, and if I go to bed forgetting them in my ears with the volume low I will wake up and some days they still are playing. So best case probably around 7 hours ish for the earbud with no noise cancelation no LDAC and low volume. When you turn all the features on though it definitely drops the battery life, probably to around 4 ish. However the case charges really fast. I thought these were pretty good for $120. Now for $50 with a 25% coupon they're a great deal. I might update this review once I get my galaxy buds2 pros in a few days though. (Edit) I have had my buds 2 pros for a significant amount of time and I'll summarize the differences: The transparency mode of the buds 2 Pro is significantly better, it feels much less stuffy. The active noise cancelling of the buds 2 pros is marginally better but because of the size of the earbuds themselves the Liberty 2 pros offer more passive noise cancellation than the buds. The size is a big difference for me as the buds 2 pros are much smaller and therefore much more comfortable to wear when laying down. The sound quality of the buds 2 pros is noticeably better but not overwhelmingly so. The buds 2 pros battery is actually worse than the liberty 2 pros. However, the buds 2 pros are over $200 and the Liberty 2 pros can be found on sales for the price I stated originally. I do not think you get 4x the value for spending 4x the money, especially if you aren't a samsung mobile device user. There are some other features that the pros have (360 audio, find my buds) that to my knowledge the liberty 2 pros do not have, but the biggest thing that makes the Liberty 2 pros a great buy for the price is the customizability you have with the app, and solid performance for the price. Unless you have money to burn to get something that's maybe 1.5x as nice for 4x the money, I'd go with the liberty 2 pros. Yes, they are not the best in the market. But, they are still very solid and at a very steep discount compared to other buds.

Like all Soundcore product I have bought this true wireless headsets is amazing. All of the AirPod pro features and more at half the price wirh sound quality that is exceptional. I have a hearing impairment in one ear so the customizable Hear ID equalizer function is absolutely brilliant and the noise cancelling is superb. Can’t say enough about these. They are excellent.

I ordered the earbuds on Friday night, and the product was delivered to my front door the next morning. Kudos to Amazon delivery. The earbuds look nice, fit in my ears, and sound good. There're 8 different sizes to cover all types of users. To be frank, the noise cancellation isn't as good as the Bose headphones I use on airplanes. At this price point, it's already quite good, especially for phone calls nowadays when multiple people answer calls at home. The only tiny issue I had was that the left-side earbud would give me noticeable static noise when the noise cancellation mode is on. It could be due to the lack of protection in the shipping package (no air bag). I reached out to the customer services - Stephen helped me out quickly without any pushback. I was able to get a replacement the next day, and there're air bags in the package this time. At this price, Anker Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Pro is an excellent choice!
