Liberty 4 NC vs Liberty 5 — which one should I buy if ANC is my priority?
Hi everyone,
I’m planning to buy either the Soundcore Liberty 4 NC or Liberty 5.
I really like the design and newer features of the Liberty 5, especially what Soundcore mentions on the box. So initially, I was leaning toward the Liberty 5.
However, my main priority is ANC.
I’ve been reading reviews and Reddit discussions, and I’m seeing some mixed opinions. Some people say the Liberty 5 has better ANC, while others say the Liberty 4 NC actually has slightly better ANC, especially for constant low-frequency noise.
I also saw SoundGuys’ comparison, where the Liberty 4 NC performed better overall in their ANC testing. (SoundGuys)
So I’d really like to hear from people who have used both:
Which one has better ANC in real-world use?
How noticeable is the ANC difference?
How are they on buses, trains, airplanes, traffic, etc.?
Is the Liberty 5 actually worth paying more for?
Which one would you personally choose today?
If ANC is my #1 priority, should I get the Liberty 4 NC or Liberty 5?
Thanks!
