00:00:00,060 --> 00:00:04,589
we're checking out the Liberty two errors from sound corn this video was

2
00:00:03,060 --> 00:00:11,250
sponsored by sound course you can check them out at the link in the video description they build these as kind of

3
00:00:08,550 --> 00:00:15,480
earpods competitors but at a lower price and the lower price part checks out I've

4
00:00:13,380 --> 00:00:20,400
fired these up on Amazon and they were marked $20 down from an MSRP of a

5
00:00:17,820 --> 00:00:24,720
hundred US dollars making them about 80 US dollars and as far as the tech built

6
00:00:22,980 --> 00:00:30,300
into them goes that's looking pretty good for the price so they've got

7
00:00:27,500 --> 00:00:35,370
diamond coated drivers whatever that means they've got two microphones pert

8
00:00:32,820 --> 00:00:40,379
earbud so for uplink noise cancellation they've got IP x5 water resistance so

9
00:00:38,610 --> 00:00:44,789
you should be able to sweat with them in and they feature seven hours of play

10
00:00:42,570 --> 00:00:50,489
time in the earbuds themselves with a total of 28 hours with the charging case

11
00:00:47,879 --> 00:00:55,680
and this is a really nice feature to have now they've got wireless charging

12
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:57,149
in the case as well I really didn't

13
00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:02,640
think it was gonna bother me that much and then I went to a pair of wireless

14
00:01:00,539 --> 00:01:07,229
earphones that did not have wireless charging built into the case and it was

15
00:01:04,049 --> 00:01:09,420
like oh yeah this really isn't as good

16
00:01:07,229 --> 00:01:15,030
I'm gonna fire these in here so they're supposed to get about two hours of

17
00:01:12,780 --> 00:01:18,780
playback time off of just a 10 minute charge so it's not charged out of the

18
00:01:16,439 --> 00:01:22,830
box then that should give me enough to do the video here and they're preloaded

19
00:01:21,180 --> 00:01:27,600
with the medium ear tips actually that means I'm probably gonna have to swap them out right away I'm kind of small

20
00:01:25,530 --> 00:01:29,930
ear canals alright let's see what it feels like

21
00:01:33,460 --> 00:01:39,530
okay small it is last thing here is a

22
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:47,689
charging cable just in case you still plugging in to charge type C really nice

23
00:01:42,530 --> 00:01:49,159
to see get it really nice to see on the

24
00:01:47,689 --> 00:01:54,709
bottom we've got a pairing button and then that's like pretty much it they're

25
00:01:52,009 --> 00:01:59,509
about as earpods lake is you could expect them to be without being like a

26
00:01:56,810 --> 00:02:04,250
you know a cheap knockoff right for size comparison i brought along my regular

27
00:02:01,459 --> 00:02:10,280
air pods as well as a pair of ear pods pros so you can see they're about the

28
00:02:06,770 --> 00:02:12,440
width of the air pods pros but they are

29
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:16,910
a little bit thicker and they're actually a little bit taller as well of

30
00:02:15,349 --> 00:02:22,810
course the most important thing for me is not necessarily the raw size but

31
00:02:20,209 --> 00:02:28,459
whether they fit in the useless pocket it's a little tight does get in there

32
00:02:25,970 --> 00:02:33,769
though that's a good finish they've got on the top it's kind of matte feeling

33
00:02:31,340 --> 00:02:37,430
but it's not so grippy that it's a real challenge to slide in and out of the

34
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:40,069
pocket there especially out because I find the way that I generally get it oh

35
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:45,380
is I kind of squeeze it out like a tube of toothpaste so nothing quite matches the air pods in

36
00:02:43,489 --> 00:02:50,209
this regard you can see they really pop out quite easily but that's also

37
00:02:47,419 --> 00:02:54,910
respectable now let's look at the earbuds themselves so we've got our

38
00:02:51,889 --> 00:02:56,989
Liberty air two's ear pods pros and

39
00:02:54,910 --> 00:03:01,549
regular air pods so they're definitely gonna hang out of your ear canals kind

40
00:02:59,450 --> 00:03:07,099
of like the regular air pods do they're a little bit on the thicker side and

41
00:03:03,889 --> 00:03:09,859
thic see that size difference is a

42
00:03:07,099 --> 00:03:13,599
disadvantage compared to air pods but what helps with the snugness of the fit

43
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:17,510
is the fact that they've at least got different sizes of silicone tips that

44
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:22,730
you can use to make sure that it fits in alright so I find that neither of them

45
00:03:20,569 --> 00:03:27,769
are gonna come flying out even with a head shake test one other thing that's

46
00:03:24,980 --> 00:03:32,299
really noticeable is of course the difference in sound isolation so the air

47
00:03:29,989 --> 00:03:35,930
pods because they don't seal in your ear offer almost none you got to move up to

48
00:03:34,489 --> 00:03:40,520
the pros for that which of course means you're spending quite a lot more it's

49
00:03:38,690 --> 00:03:47,090
got a bit of a hollow err that close sound but nice magnetic

50
00:03:43,940 --> 00:03:48,710
mechanism not that not bad give it a

51
00:03:47,090 --> 00:03:54,290
b-plus okay update firmware you know when I was a

52
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:57,350
kid we didn't have firmware updates when you bought something gosh darn it you

53
00:03:55,820 --> 00:04:03,860
were stuck with whatever broken piece of garbage they sent you all right we do it

54
00:04:01,420 --> 00:04:09,140
so that's our battery life here in the app here's our equalizer settings and

55
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:15,350
this actually test your hearing and then adjusts the EQ according to your hearing

56
00:04:12,620 --> 00:04:23,510
okay so you hold the button and you can hear the sound and release it when you

57
00:04:16,970 --> 00:04:26,240
stop hearing the sound okay so try it

58
00:04:23,510 --> 00:04:34,690
with and without this thing I like it better like this interesting why that's

59
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:41,060
it that's all you got for me Nilla noise cancellation so by default

60
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:42,770
hold is voice assistant or I guess you

61
00:04:41,060 --> 00:04:48,230
can change it to whatever you want here but I will say the noise isolation is

62
00:04:45,350 --> 00:04:52,820
quite strong there closed-back im's and they seal pretty well with the ear so

63
00:04:50,470 --> 00:04:56,600
hearing what's around me is pretty difficult with them in now I'm gonna

64
00:04:54,710 --> 00:04:59,750
turn off your personalization here and I'm gonna just put it on a flat EQ I

65
00:04:58,460 --> 00:05:07,820
want to hear what they sound like out of the box wow these things are friggin

66
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:11,720
loud I would listen to them at the very

67
00:05:07,820 --> 00:05:14,450
very bottom if you like shaking your

68
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:17,660
skull within years these are gonna be right up your alley

69
00:05:15,260 --> 00:05:24,050
well the flat sound signature is true to its words very flat not too sparkly in

70
00:05:20,660 --> 00:05:26,000
the highs not overdone with the bass the

71
00:05:24,050 --> 00:05:31,210
default sound signature pumps the bass a little bit but really not a ton oh wow

72
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:36,560
you can pick different professional ones this is really cool my note 9 has a

73
00:05:34,070 --> 00:05:41,800
feature where I can actually have two Bluetooth sound devices active at one so

74
00:05:38,510 --> 00:05:44,460
this allows me to fairly easily

75
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:49,330
listen to both at the same time definitely less isolation than active

76
00:05:47,650 --> 00:05:58,870
noise cancellation but I would expect that but compared to just a regular air

77
00:05:54,009 --> 00:06:00,669
pod I mean it's nice day you're that

78
00:05:58,870 --> 00:06:06,190
good ghost in mama oh that's something that changes in the

79
00:06:02,919 --> 00:06:08,680
default sound core signature instead of

80
00:06:06,190 --> 00:06:12,729
being quite as flat it pulls vocals up a little bit kind of like what the air

81
00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:16,840
pods will do out of the box some more apples to apple comparison for sure I

82
00:06:15,130 --> 00:06:20,470
think out of the box it's fair to say they have comparable sound quality to

83
00:06:18,580 --> 00:06:25,599
something like air pods or even air pods pros but what's really nice is that if

84
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:30,490
you get into the custom EQ unlike those Sennheiser's that I checked out recently

85
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:32,380
they've got this just very intuitive

86
00:06:30,490 --> 00:06:36,580
interface that's super easy to use to create your own custom EQ clearly my

87
00:06:34,840 --> 00:06:40,870
kids need me to go pay attention to them now so thanks for checking out this look

88
00:06:39,069 --> 00:06:44,110
