Libratone’s second-generation Air+ true wireless earphones are stylish, have the same price as other high-end models with active noise cancellation, and have the same number of features (ANC). Even though they sound good and are well balanced, they don’t cancel out noise as well as the best headphones in their class.
The second-generation Air+ earpieces come in either black or white and have a stem-style design that makes them fit securely without the need for extra stabilisers beyond the three pairs of silicone eartips that come in the box. The stems have a unique, stylish look because they are triangular and round at the same time.

Where to buy Libratone AIR+ 2 earbuds?
The frequency range of the 5.3mm drivers on the inside is from 20Hz to 20kHz. The earphones work with Bluetooth 5.2 and support the AptX, SBC, and not the AAC Bluetooth codecs. Since they don’t have this feature, they will default to SBC for iOS users. If you want the best sound quality, you shouldn’t use them.
The Libratone Air+ are some of the best earbuds I’ve tried that block out noise. In this way, they’re like Apple’s AirPods Pro, but they’re not the same as the Sony WF-1000XM4. They did a great job of blocking out engine noise and rumble, but like the AirPods Pro, they were not as good at blocking out voices.
Qualcomm’s top-of-the-line 5.2 chipset and TrueWireless Mirroring technology are built in, which means that you can expect a strong connection with low latency. Libratone likes to talk about how the Air+ can switch between three Bluetooth devices that are connected to it.
The quality of phone calls was good because the phone has two microphones that automatically switch between them based on how loud it is around them. In addition to lining up the microphones, the manufacturer says that special filtering is also used to make it easier to understand what is being said.
Libratone says that its Air+ earbuds can last for six hours, and I found that to be true when I turned off the active noise cancellation (ANC). When the ANC is set to its highest level (30 dB), the earbuds’ battery lasts about five and a half hours, which is when my right earbud died.
