Choosing Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro wireless earbuds: what should you look for?

Anyone searching for Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro wireless earbuds will usually want one set for music, phone calls, sport and everyday use. The product name may sound clear, but similar offers can differ in colour, version and stated specifications. Always check exactly what is included before you buy.

Common pitfalls when choosing Bluetooth earbuds

1. Misinterpreting “water-resistant”

An IPX5 rating means that, according to the stated protection class, the earbuds can withstand water jets. This does not make them suitable for swimming or prolonged submersion. Sweat, light rain and splashes are within the intended use, but the earbuds and charging case should be kept dry after use.

Also note an important distinction: the IPX5 rating does not automatically apply to the USB-C charging case. Keep the case away from moisture.

2. Treating battery life as a fixed usage time

The Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro is listed with up to 10 hours of continuous audio playback. “Up to” is not a guarantee for every situation. Volume, Bluetooth connection, controls and the age of the built-in battery all affect battery life. The charging case is designed to recharge the earbuds between uses.

3. Confusing multiple microphones with guaranteed call quality

The specifications list six built-in microphones. This is a verifiable product feature, but it does not mean every call will automatically sound perfect on a busy street or a windy station platform. The overall experience also depends on the Bluetooth connection, the smartphone you use and surrounding noise.

Key specifications explained

TWS and Bluetooth

The Liberty 4 Pro uses True Wireless Stereo (TWS). There is no cable between the left and right earbuds. The connection to your smartphone, tablet or laptop is made via Bluetooth. When using them for the first time, charge the earbuds, open your device’s Bluetooth settings and select the earbuds.

TWS earbuds are practical for commuting and sport, but small earbuds are easier to lose than a headset with a neckband or cable. Keep both earbuds in the charging case whenever you are not using them.

In-ear fit and earbuds for calls

The Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro is a set of in-ear earbuds with a microphone. The fit affects not only comfort, but also how much surrounding noise you hear and how securely the earbuds stay in place. Additional ear tips are listed as included in the packaging. Choose the size that fits securely without creating pressure.

For wireless earbuds for calls, the microphones and the position of the earbuds are important. Also check whether your phone supports the Bluetooth features you need. The product information mentions touch controls, multiple function buttons and touch volume control.

USB-C charging case and everyday care

The charging case is charged via USB Type-C. According to the product specification, an AC adapter is not included. So check whether you already have a suitable USB-C power source and cable.

Clean the earbuds regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water in the openings and do not place damp earbuds directly in the case. Listen at a moderate volume and take breaks; listening at high volume for extended periods can damage your hearing.

Are the Liberty 4 Pro suitable for sport?

The earbuds are listed with IPX5 and are intended for calls, music, sport and everyday use. This makes them suitable for light rain or sweat, but not for swimming or submersion.
