was sponsored by sound course you can check them out at the link in the video description they build these as kind of earpods competitors but at a lower price and the lower price part checks out I've fired these up on Amazon and they were marked $20 down from an MSRP of a hundred US dollars making them about 80 US dollars and as far as the tech built into them goes that's looking pretty good for the price so they've got diamond coated drivers whatever that means they've got two microphones pert earbud so for uplink noise cancellation they've got IP x5 water resistance so you should be able to sweat with them in and they feature seven hours of play time in the earbuds themselves with a total of 28 hours with the charging case and this is a really nice feature to have now they've got wireless charging in the case as well I really didn't think it was gonna bother me that much and then I went to a pair of wireless earphones that did not have wireless charging built into the case and it was like oh yeah this really isn't as good I'm gonna fire these in here so they're supposed to get about two hours of playback time off of just a 10 minute charge so it's not charged out of the box then that should give me enough to do the video here and they're preloaded with the medium ear tips actually that means I'm probably gonna have to swap them out right away I'm kind of small ear canals alright let's see what it feels like okay small it is last thing here is a charging cable just in case you still plugging in to charge type C really nice to see get it really nice to see on the bottom we've got a pairing button and then that's like pretty much it they're about as earpods lake is you could expect them to be without being like a you know a cheap knockoff right for size comparison i brought along my regular air pods as well as a pair of ear pods pros so you can see they're about the width of the air pods pros but they are a little bit thicker and they're actually a little bit taller as well of course the most important thing for me is not necessarily the raw size but whether they fit in the useless pocket it's a little tight does get in there though that's a good finish they've got on the top it's kind of matte feeling but it's not so grippy that it's a real challenge to slide in and out of the pocket there especially out because I find the way that I generally get it oh is I kind of squeeze it out like a tube of toothpaste so nothing quite matches the air pods in this regard you can see they really pop out quite easily but that's also respectable now let's look at the earbuds themselves so we've got our Liberty air two's ear pods pros and regular air pods so they're definitely gonna hang out of your ear canals kind of like the regular air pods do they're a little bit on the thicker side and thic see that size difference is a disadvantage compared to air pods but what helps with the snugness of the fit is the fact that they've at least got different sizes of silicone tips that you can use to make sure that it fits in alright so I find that neither of them are gonna come flying out even with a head shake test one other thing that's really noticeable is of course the difference in sound isolation so the air pods because they don't seal in your ear offer almost none you got to move up to the pros for that which of course means you're spending quite a lot more it's got a bit of a hollow err that close sound but nice magnetic mechanism not that not bad give it a b-plus okay update firmware you know when I was a kid we didn't have firmware updates when you bought something gosh darn it you were stuck with whatever broken piece of garbage they sent you all right we do it so that's our battery life here in the app here's our equalizer settings and this actually test your hearing and then adjusts the EQ according to your hearing okay so you hold the button and you can hear the sound and release it when you stop hearing the sound okay so try it with and without this thing I like it better like this interesting why that's it that's all you got for me Nilla noise cancellation so by default hold is voice assistant or I guess you can change it to whatever you want here but I will say the noise isolation is quite strong there closed-back im's and they seal pretty well with the ear so hearing what's around me is pretty difficult with them in now I'm gonna turn off your personalization here and I'm gonna just put it on a flat EQ I want to hear what they sound like out of the box wow these things are friggin loud I would listen to them at the very very bottom if you like shaking your skull within years these are gonna be right up your alley well the flat sound signature is true to its words very flat not too sparkly in the highs not overdone with the bass the default sound signature pumps the bass a little bit but really not a ton oh wow you can pick different professional ones this is really cool my note 9 has a feature where I can actually have two Bluetooth sound devices active at one so this allows me to fairly easily listen to both at the same time definitely less isolation than active noise cancellation but I would expect that but compared to just a regular air pod I mean it's nice day you're that good ghost in mama oh that's something that changes in the default sound core signature instead of being quite as flat it pulls vocals up a little bit kind of like what the air pods will do out of the box some more apples to apple comparison for sure I think out of the box it's fair to say they have comparable sound quality to something like air pods or even air pods pros but what's really nice is that if you get into the custom EQ unlike those Sennheiser's that I checked out recently they've got this just very intuitive interface that's super easy to use to create your own custom EQ clearly my kids need me to go pay attention to them now so thanks for checking out this look at the Liberty r2 so again this is sponsored by sound Corps and you can check them out at the link in the video description if that that doesn't go in there"}
