Our Verdict
Anker Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro Truly Wireless
Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 True Wireless
The Anker Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro Truly Wireless are slightly better in-ears than the Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 True Wireless. While both headphones are comfortable and well-built, the Liberty 3 have a more neutral and balanced sound profile, which some users may prefer, and they're able to block out significantly more ambient noise. However, the Liberty 4 have a better battery and mic performance.
