The Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro Max wireless earbuds, released in early 2026, pack a wide array of features including adaptive active noise cancellation (ANC), spatial audio with head tracking, and a battery life of up to 50 hours with the charging case. However, they do not include heart rate monitoring, a feature found in some competitors like the Apple AirPods Pro 3.
In our testing, the earbuds provided strong noise cancellation that adapts to your environment, and the spatial audio creates an immersive listening experience. The sound profile is customizable via the Soundcore app, which also offers a graphic equalizer and presets. The earbuds are IPX5-rated for water resistance, making them suitable for workouts.
Connectivity is reliable with Bluetooth 5.3, and multipoint connection allows pairing with two devices simultaneously. The touch controls are responsive and can be customized. The design is comfortable for extended wear, though the case is slightly larger than some competitors.
While the Liberty 5 Pro Max lacks health tracking features, it excels in audio performance and battery life. At a price of $149.99, they offer strong value for users seeking premium sound and ANC without the cost of flagship models.
