Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro True Wireless Earbuds – Glossy Black
The Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro Glossy Black are true wireless ANC earbuds aimed at professionals, frequent travellers, and music enthusiasts who demand serious performance without crossing into four-figure pricing. Each earbud pairs a 10.5mm bass driver with a titanium-coated tweeter in a coaxial arrangement, while a seven-sensor noise cancellation system — including a barometric pressure sensor — adapts to your surroundings every 0.3 seconds. The Glossy Black colourway features a reflective semi-transparent sliding case lid, meaning you can read the internal battery display without lifting the lid.
LDAC is Android-only: High-resolution wireless audio via LDAC requires a compatible Android device. Connecting from an iPhone or Windows PC uses AAC instead. Verify your device supports LDAC before buying if hi-res streaming is your main priority.
Battery life drops with ANC and calls: Without ANC, each earbud delivers up to 10 hours. Switch ANC on and plan for around 7.5 hours. Voice calls consume more power than music playback, so a day of back-to-back meetings will shorten the charge cycle further.

Use Cases
Business Travel and Long-Haul Flights
The barometric pressure sensor distinguishes these earbuds from most competitors at this price tier. Rather than delivering a fixed noise-cancellation profile at altitude, the sensor reads cabin air pressure and recalibrates in real time — so the ANC remains effective throughout boarding, climb, cruise, and descent. Multipoint connection keeps your work phone and travel phone paired together, and the case touch bar lets you adjust ANC intensity without reaching for your phone.
Open-Plan Offices and Hybrid Work
EasyChat handles the interruptions that make open-plan work frustrating: when a colleague speaks to you, the music fades and transparency mode activates automatically. When the conversation ends, playback resumes. Six microphones with AI suppression deliver clear outgoing voice on calls, even near air conditioning units or in noisy shared spaces. At 7.5 hours of ANC-on battery per charge, the Liberty 4 Pro covers a standard working day without needing a mid-afternoon top-up.
Wired Hi-Fi and Android Streaming
Android users with LDAC-capable devices unlock wireless playback up to 24-bit/96kHz — compatible with lossless streaming from Tidal, Qobuz, and Amazon Music HD. The dual-driver crossover architecture means that bass enhancement, whether through the app EQ or the BassUp toggle, does not push vocals backward in the mix. HearID 2.0 additionally calibrates the EQ curve to your individual hearing response through an A/B listening test, rather than applying a generic age-group average.
Sport and Active Use
IPX5-rated earbuds handle sweat, rain, and gym humidity without risk to the electronics. However, submersion is not covered — pool swimming falls outside the rating. Six ear tip sizes let you match the canal seal to your specific anatomy, which matters during exercise when head movement would otherwise loosen a generic-fit tip and degrade both passive isolation and ANC performance.
Considerations
- LDAC requires Android. AAC is the ceiling for iPhone and macOS users. For daily listening, AAC performs well — but lossless streaming platforms operating at 24-bit/96kHz will only deliver full resolution to LDAC-capable Android devices.
- Spatial audio is functional, not transformative. The 360° head-tracking mode works and tracks reliably. Independent testing indicates it primarily reduces perceived volume rather than adding vivid three-dimensional positioning. It adds value for film and gaming content, but it is not the standout feature of this earbud.
- Case controls are partially lid-dependent. Swiping the ANC level works with the lid closed, through the semi-transparent Glossy Black lid. Accessing spatial audio modes, Find My Earbuds, and the reset menu requires the lid to be open for full display interaction.
- No dedicated gaming mode. There is no low-latency gaming codec. Real-world casual gaming over Bluetooth performs adequately, but competitive gaming with tight audio-to-action synchronisation benefits from a wired setup instead.
- Case water resistance. IPX5 applies to the earbuds, not the case. Avoid leaving the case in rain or in bags that collect moisture.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro Glossy Black work with iPhones? Yes, it pairs over Bluetooth 5.3 with all iPhones. LDAC is unavailable on iOS — iPhone users receive AAC, which handles standard streaming quality well.
Can I see the battery display through the closed lid? Yes. The Glossy Black variant has a semi-transparent lid. The internal LCD screen is visible from outside the closed case, so you can read battery levels and swipe the touch bar without opening it.
How many devices can the Liberty 4 Pro connect to at once? Two. Multipoint connection holds simultaneous pairing with two Bluetooth devices. The earbuds switch between them automatically when a call arrives on the inactive device.
Is wireless charging included in the box? A Qi wireless charging pad is not included. Only the USB-C cable comes in the box. However, the case charges on any standard Qi-compatible pad.
Does the Liberty 4 Pro Glossy Black differ in hardware from other Liberty 4 Pro colours? No. The hardware — drivers, sensors, battery, codecs, and controls — is identical across all Liberty 4 Pro colour variants. Only the case lid finish and colour differ.
What is the difference between ANC Level 6 and Level 10? Level 6 is the lowest ANC intensity setting. Level 10 is maximum suppression. Higher levels block more ambient sound but consume slightly more battery. The touch bar on the case lets you slide between levels without opening the app.
