Alternatively, you can order the $149.99 Soundcore Liberty 4 right now in Midnight Black and Cloud White hues. Yes, the latest super-premium earbuds sold under Anker’s Soundcore sub-brand come with a built-in heart rate sensor (in the right bud) alongside other more “traditionally” high-end features and capabilities including adaptive noise cancellation, spatial audio, and up to 28 hours of (combined) battery life.
Of course, even if we file that feature under useless gimmicks, which may or may not prove to be the case in real-life Soundcore Liberty 4 use, these bad boys still deliver objectively great value for your 150 bucks (at least on paper).
Alas, Anker’s battery life claims are reduced to 7 and 24 hours with active noise cancellation enabled at all times and 5 and 15 hours with spatial audio also switched on, but those are still pretty decent numbers… all things considered.
If you hurry, you can even get your choice of a $25.99-worth 32W Anker charger or $16.99-worth PowerLine III USB-C to USB-C cable included in your 150 bucks at no extra charge as long as you go the black Soundcore Liberty 4 route. While this special bundle offer is technically scheduled to run until the end of October, there are apparently only 500 freebies available (each or in total?), so snoozers might end up losing their chance at a nice little deal sweetener.
