Our test item comes in Cosmic Blue, which is also described as Dark Navy (on some sites), and it has a shine that is almost iridescent and is pretty pleasant. Anker provides a few other colorways for the Soundcore Liberty 4 NC. The casing finish is not overly glossy, which is a positive quality; nonetheless, it is prone to scuffs and scratches. It does not appear that Anker considered noise cancellation to be an afterthought.
Not only does the Soundcore Liberty 4 NC come with the ability to turn on or off passive noise cancellation (ANC), but it also comes with Adaptive Noise Control (which can be turned on or off), five different degrees of manual noise cancellation, wind reduction (on or off), and even transportation-specific ANC. However, if you are not a tinkerer, you could consider this to be excessive.
[content-egg-block template=offers_logo hide=price]It is possible that you will experience some of the severe vacuum sensation with powerful active noise cancellation (ANC) when you use the Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 NC with the ANC rating set to its highest possible level. The ANC is able to successfully subdue the noises of hum and traffic that are present on public transportation. With the remarkable active noise cancellation (ANC), you could be under the impression that the passive isolation on the Soundcore Liberty 4 NC does not quite measure up, as there is some audibility of high-pitched noises that occur by accident.

Where to Get Anker Soundcore Liberty 4 NC Earbuds?
There is a surprise lightness to the Liberty 4 NC sound when we play Vocal Jazz by Norah Jones. One reason for this is that the driver is 11 mm, which is pretty big for headphones that go in your ears. One more reason is the program that is running in the background. You can make a sound setting that works great for your ears with HearID. There is Soundcore Signature for sound effects. The adaptive active noise canceling 2.0 is the next treat. It works well with background noise and makes the experience nice. Because of this, the quality of the songs on ANC is also very good.
For our sound check, though, everything fun is turned off. The bass is just right to round out the sound, and the words are clear and easy to understand. When you listen for longer, however, flaws become clear. When you use HearID to turn on the individual sound profile, the flaws can be very well hidden. The mids are pushed back, and the “S” sounds are very sharp.
