Soundcore by Anker Liberty 3 Pro Noise Cancelling Earbuds, True Wireless Earbuds with ACAA 2.0, HearID ANC, Fusion Comfort, Hi-Res Audio Wireless, 6 Mics for Calls, 32H Playtime

This review begins with the end of something else: in my case, my Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro earbuds suddenly going from stereo to mono…largely for keeps. Not fun, since I largely liked the Buds, and I'd been through pretty much every iteration of Samsung's offerings since their first (which weren't much to write home about, but isn't almost everyone's first try?). This time, though, there wasn't anything from the company to upgrade to (yet), so I took on the arduous task of seeking out an alternative set of wireless buds that could closely match the 2 Pros without searing my budget…and it turns out the answer was sitting in front of me, and on the dresser in the next room: in front of me was a pair of Soundcore Space Q45 headphones I purchased over a year back while convalescing from an accident, and helped get me through some heavy post-surgical/PT routines. For over-the-ear BT phones, they're seriously hard to beat for the price. In the next room are a pair of Soundcore P3i wireless earbuds I got for my wife after she lost her pair of first-gen Samsung Buds (inherited from me), which she loves. That's two-for-two for Soundcore, so it seemed logical to see what they offered in their better in-ear stuff: I chose the Liberty 3 Pro. Very glad I did: while not the latest-and-greatest from Soundcore, I preferred the form-factor over something like the Liberty 4: besides not being crazy about the Apple-esque style and control layout, I felt the 3 Pro would offer a potentially better seal against the ear - a huge deal for me, since up until these buds I had yet to find earbuds that offered a proper seal for both ears, my right ear being especially troublesome. Thankfully, these buds offer a wide choice of eartips *and* "wings" for a stable, secure fit, which naturally makes a huge impact on sound quality and isolation from extraneous noise. And no wearing fatigue after upward of three hours' continuous wear. Sound quality is on-par with my Samsung buds, very close in terms of bass depth, with the Samsungs offering a trifle more impact but the Soundcores offering somewhat better bass definition…consider it a draw. Mid/high frequency response is very pleasant. And here's where, just as with the Q45s, I want to put heavy emphasis on Soundcore's HearID feature in their app: for me, it's crucial for getting the absolute best out of these buds in terms of sound quality, and it makes sense why - it's essentially a hearing test for creating a TRULY customized EQ based on your hearing acuity. You're not just shooting in the dark messing with sliders and hoping for the best. Yes, there's a bunch of "canned" presets to choose from if you'd rather cut to the chase and get on with just playing stuff, but trust me, taking the extra bit of time (not a lot) with HearID will likely be worth it. And: On top of this, for the Liberty Pro 3, there's HearID ANC - yes, not just ANC, but ANC tailored to your hearing sensitivity pretty much in the same vein as the standard HearID. I'm still playing with this function, but so far liking what I hear…or, rather, *don't* hear. Battery Life? Decidedly better than the Samsung (which is admittedly a somewhat low bar): I'm clocking somewhere between 5-6 hours, but keep in mind this is with all the bells & whistles engaged. And, speaking of bells & whistles: For me, at least, engaging LDAC is worth it Sound clarity for phone calls is very good on both ends, confirmed via many calls under assorted conditions. The Case: Works as advertised. Ergonomically, I can't say it's better or worse than other cases other buds have come with - all the ones I've used came with their own minor handling quirks which I quickly adjusted to. Wired and wireless charging works without issue. In all, very good value for money, and in my case a quite stable replacement for my Samsung buds. Recommended.

I bought Galaxy buds pro initially, and was very satisfied with the sound quality, noise cancellation, and ambient sound mode. However, my Galaxy buds pro kept falling out of my ears while talking and they caused ear pain if I wore them for over an hour. Bought these Soundcore L3Ps to replace the Galaxy buds pros. Wow, at the price of $130, the L3Ps provide amazing value! Since I have the L3Ps and the Galaxy buds pros, I am going to do a comparison review. Comfort/fit: The L3Ps win hands down. Galaxy buds pro causes ear pain for me, and they fall out if I talk. I tried yawning and the L3Ps stayed in securely. Sound quality: The L3Ps has a more interesting sound profile with more bass and more treble out of the box. The Galaxy buds pros sound more neutral. The L3Ps respond to EQ much better than the Galaxy buds. I EQed the L3Ps to be more neutral, and they sound less muddy compared to the Galaxy buds. Both had impressive sound quality as Bluetooth ear buds. ANC: Both provided satisfactory ANC. Galaxy ANC seems slightly better. Battery life: Don't know yet, haven't gotten a chance to run them out of juice. With ANC off, used for 45 mins and battery went from 100% to 90%. Connection: L3Ps have multipoint connection and I love it. Galaxy buds pro doesn't have it. I noticed my L3Ps dropped connection once or twice so far. Music stops for about half a second and immediately resumes. Happened twice in a few hours so far. For some reason, my Galaxy buds pro sounded better when connected to my Android phone, but slightly worse when connected to my Macbook Pro (and the Galaxy buds were not in headset mode.) The L3Ps sounded great regardless whether I play music from my phone or Macbook. LDAC: Turning on LDAC would cause the L3Ps to lose multipoint connections. I tried LDAC mode and the improvement in sound quality is noticeable but not big enough for me to give up on multipoint connections. HearID: I preferred a more neutral sound, but the HearID ear tests made the sound even less neutral. I would say I don't like it. (Update: after trying the HearID sound for a few hours, I must say that it sounded really good! It was a unique sound profile that takes some time to get used to. Now I am surprised how good the HearID sound profile is--the more I listened to it, the more I liked it.) Other factors: I like the Galaxy buds pro's talk detection, which turns on ambient mode and lowers music volume if I start speaking--e.g., super convenient for talking to cashiers at supermarkets. L3Ps don't have this feature. The ambient mode on the Galaxy buds pro is more customizable and feels better. I don't like the Soundcore logo--the logo looked like Beats knockoff?! Quality (or feel): Both have great build quality. The Galaxy charging case feels more premium to me and is also more compact. The L3Ps have a more premium packaging. Overall, I preferred the Galaxy charging case. For me the main deciding factors are: 1. Fit. 2. Multipoint connection. Update: 3. The HearID sound profile might be an "acquired taste", and now I enjoy it a lot. These earbuds for $130 are Amazing.

For the price that these are going right now, I don't think any other earbuds come even close to the value you get out of the L3Ps. The sound is bright, bassy and the customization is limitless. The noise cancelling is exceptional for my fit. They are comfortable for hours and the battery life lasted me two weeks of just regular use. The touch controls are accurate and I've seldom had accidental inputs. And boy do these look good, they turn heads whenever I'm wearing them, all in all I'd say the transparency mode could be better and you might take a while to figure out your perfect fit but when you do, you'll enjoy them more than you think.

Kupione używane. Stan idealny. Niesamowita jakość dźwięku, bas i wyciszenie. Używane kilka lat. Moim zdaniem warto inwestować w tą markę i nie przepłacać za inne "światowe". Posiadam kilka produktów tej firmy i nadal nie żałuję ani jednego zakupu.

Si eres audiofilo, estos auriculares son para ti, una calidad de audio excelente 100% recomendado

-- Updated review based on a few days of ownership --- My quick (not so quick) review of my Liberty 3 Pro earbuds, i did have initial concerns regarding the fit but i explain how that changed. Any concerns on the fit are fading – they aren’t moving – they’re just smaller and therefore not contacting with the ear so much and just with the fin so they don’t feel as present as the 2’s do. When you take them off they just easily pop out and that was giving me this false sense that they weren’t in so well. But overall it’s an improvement on the 2’s … the pressure on the ear is lowered and therefore i can happily listen for several hours without getting any discomfort or fatigue and even in my odd ears (i cannot use any normal IEM’s without them falling out in 10s) i can use a combination of the smallest tips and largest fins and they feel great. I did switch the tips out in the end for a set of Feaulle H370 Latex tips simply because they offer a slight improvement for me in fit but had i not got these tips anyway i would have been perfectly happy to use the included ones. The included ear tips “snap” onto the steps rather than just slide on … they have a firm plastic core which is secure and there’s pretty much zero chance of the tips falling off the stems. I think for the same asking price as the 2’s (£15 cheaper for me) they’re a real no brainer. The HearID ANC is perfect for casual listening – it’s not as strong as some brands’ is but it similarly almost disappears and in my office the computer noise and other minor sounds are just knocked back that bit further without feeling like you’re in that heavy ANC territory. Haven’t yet tried them in a noisy environment with full/heavy ANC enabled yet. But sitting in the same room as someone with the TV on and a fan while i was listening to podcasts was perfect. Almost no noise from the environment bled in. Similarly, these buds offer a great seal and when i was in a quiet room i asked my wife to listen to see if she could hear any bleed from my buds while i had the volume on much louder than i would normally and she couldn’t hear a thing so great for public transport and being in an office where you don’t want to annoy others with your music. App — The Android app has been twice updated recently with these so they’re picked up straight away — I did have to wait about 3 days following purchase before the firmware was released. However, contacting support via email they did follow up when they said they would and came good on the update and were polite and helpful. So a definite plus for aftersales care. The HeadID worked the same … the ANC test crashed a couple of times and didn’t compelte … so bugs are present in the app/firmware. This is still present … the ANC test i always have to do 2 times before it completes without fail. I do find the HearID and EQ options inside the app a little confusing and it seems there’s a couple of ways to achieve the same thing like custom profile for HearID Click HearID Test > HearID Sound Test then you can personalise (on) then click Advanced > Custom HearID is one way i do it. I’ve had it erase my EQ profile without warning now twice … so that’s a little irritating … again i don’t know if this is firmware on the buds or the app messing up. The buttons are all configurable including turning off individually – so you could turn off single-tap to prevent accidents. You can have up to 3 taps although timing takes a little practice Multi-point is a feature a lot of people wanted but be aware that if you switch these into LDAC the option for multipoint goes dark and you cannot use it… so it’s an “either or” situation. for that if you want the best sound quality The ear seal tests work and says they’re ok. The sound quality is generally better … bass is less by default than it was before and a step up i think, it’s cleaner and tighter … lot less boomy and more precise. Bassheads might find this a step back … i don’t think bass is as hard hitting on the sub-bass as the Liberty 2 Pro+ were. Case is smaller than previous by a bit … very sleek … has white lights under them so you can find them in the dark Package is great … 4 sets of tips and fins Fit and finish is top notch, the brass stems looks solid and the buds feel grat … charge case is a lot smoother and more slippery in the hand than the 2Pro’s case and feels little looser at times. Sound stage feels wider and a little more easy … ANC on adaptive mode is subtle and absolutely does not give you that locked in pressure. But i feel it isn’t quite fully stable yet (feels like it comes in and out – that could be the adaptive nature but i “feel” something every now and then) Had a few random disconnections while listening, just feels like the buds are resetting something every 30-40 minutes … just get 2s of silence and then resumption Am enjoying the fit and sound of these more and more as i listen more. The fit is lighter pressure than the 2 pro design … the rubber fins are softer and hollow bubbles of rubber rather than a solid curve of rubber so they flex more and cushion Means they feel not as secure but in a good amount of listening they’ve not once lost their seal. Range is tremendous — i know LDAC offers less stability than lower codecs due to the higher bitrate. But i had my phone on my desk at the very front of the house and i was stood on our deck at the back of the house (so 3 rooms, a good 12 meters away and 2 stone walls) and i was still getting a signal. So that’s a win considering how tiny the buds are. Battery life – haven’t run them to depletion yet and after a good 2 or 3 hours listening in LDAC + ANC i’m still showing well more than 1/2 battery so i think on LDAC i’d get maybe 5 or 6 hours and with Non-ANC + AAC probably closer to 8 or more hours. Case is wireless or USB-C charge so modern and convenient. Listening to (all via Spotify) - as you can see – a various mix of genres Gorillaz - Dare (for bass) Marian Herzog - No Sanctuary Here (hearing the background noise and piano keys / seat creaking) Joep Beving - Sleeping Lotus (lots of ambiance) Terje Lsungset - Ung (bass/sub-bass) Dominic Miller - Shape of my Heart The Prodigy - Climbatize Trifonic - Ninth Wave (feels nice and open with lots of positional sound and a great amount of bass which doesn’t muddy the track) Sizzle Bird - Elixir Ella Mai - Everything Pantera - Far Beyond Driven (mids tight metal) Alanis Morissette - Princes Familiar Unplugged Rage Against the Machine - Take The Power Back (tight drums / bass but feels more airy than many iems until the beat drops) Final points / pro’s & Con’s Bugs in the app / firmware – small issue with the EQ settings getting reset and also the sound cutting out – but i know these can be fixed in firmware and it’s not too bad a problem now LDAC has been fixed Pro’s Definitely stronger than 2Pro’s in sound - wider, cleaner, more precise and less muddy. Fit and finish is top notch and worthy of top-tier buds Price! 1/2 the price of Sony XM4 - no brainer really App - Plenty of flexibility / options / control Con’s Minor bugs remain Bass for some might not be as hard-hitting as 2Pro’s Slippery case Multi-point pairing only accessible outside of LDAC mode

Use them for gaming , really like that you can use one and charge the other to keep playing all evening. with updated drivers , sounds are way better then expected. ANC is decent , but not what Im after.
