Top-shelf earbuds come with top-shelf pricing—and sometimes you just can’t spend that much. But even at nearly half the price of more expensive rivals, Anker’s Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro doesn’t feel like a step down. At least, not when it comes to sound quality. In fact its audio chops are so strong that even with its foibles, these buds are a compelling contender.
The Anker Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro has its quirks, but if you can overlook them, you’ll get great audio and good active noise-canceling for considerably less than top-tier rivals.
Clean, well-balanced audio; Good active noise-cancelling; Highly customizable controls; Excellent value for the price;
Fiddly controls; Capable of two simultaneously connected devices, but better with only one; Occasional call drop when switching to these buds;
