Our Verdict
SoundPeats TrueFree/True Wireless
Anker SoundCore Liberty Air Truly Wireless
The Anker SoundCore Liberty Air Truly Wireless are better truly wireless in-ears than the SoundPeats TrueFree/True Wireless. The Anker sound profile is more neutral, but some may prefer the thumpy bass of the SoundPeats. The Anker also isolate a bit better, but not by much. The nice touch-sensitive control surface is better than the one-button layout of the SoundPeats since you don’t have to push the headphones deeper inside your ear canal. The Anker case has a lid that protects the headphones, which the SoundPeats’ case is lacking. On the other hand, the SoundPeats feel better made and their matte design isn’t as fingerprint prone as the Anker's glossy finish.
