    리버티4 이어버드 오른쪽이 불량인데 AS를 어떻게 신청해야 하나요?

    알리익스프레스에서 3주 전에 구매해서 잘 사용하고 있었는데 며칠 전부터 오른쪽 이어버드에서 드륵드륵 소리가 나며 사용할 수 없게 되었습니다.
    AS를 맡기려고 구매한 셀러에게 문의를 해도 답변이 없어서 여기에 문의 합니다.
    AS 신청 방법을 알려주세요.

    I'm really shocked

    My review will be brief but I will try to be accurate in my words:
    -They sit fantastically in the ear
    - In my opinion, music sounds better than Apple Air pods Pro 2
    -In my opinion they look better than Apple Air pods Pro 2
    -Noise reduction works worse than Apple Air pods Pro 2
    -But the main advantage of Soundcore is the support of its customers. Here I take off my hat: My first pair of headphones had battery problems and the company sent me new headphones for free. It's very nice that I didn't have to send my headphones with a problem to diagnose and waste time proving the problem.
    Thanks to Soundcore, you made great headphones with good sound and at the same time your customer support is at a high level!
    PS special thanks to Anny from the support service. Please give her a bonus or a career boost!

    Almost perfect.

    I love everything about these earbuds except its a glossy finish. I really would've loved to see a finish like the air 2 pro on these. Other than that the upgrade was worth it. I mean these are more pocketable, more feature packed. The only thing I'd say i think the bass needs to be EQd a little to boost it cause i found it to be very flat for my preference. And the wind noise reduction doesn't seem to work well.

    A fair pair of buds.

    Got my pair during after watching many YouTube reviews. I also have the Q35s so I am familiar with the brands pros & cons. Soundcore has done a great job supplying all YouTubers out there with a pair but most of them just praise them a bit more than they should.

    As far as controls that (almost) no-one seems to bother, there is not even an option to customise the call experience/buttons behaviour during calls. Only this is a deal breaker as one of the pros of these earbuds is the microphone quality, so you get them for the calls. You cant set a button to mute mic or hold active call. The add-on of press and hold would solve these issues with the proper implementation on these features on the app & firmware.
    Please fix this UX issue.

    Sound quality is OK. I would say that I prefer them over the AirPods Pro2, but still my Jabra 75t sound (much) better than both of them. Bass is there, but it's not deep or loud enough not only compared to the Q35s that literally sake your ears, but also compared to t75s it's just not there. Mids and highs sound good, the sound is balanced and rich with a touch of bass but wearing them after wearing the Jabras for a few songs, they just sound bad, even after hours of EQing them... The separation might be a bit better depending on the genre you listen to but still jabras just sound better. To put it simple, all bass-heads would prefer 75t over this pair, for casual listening during calls they perform more than enough.

    I tried to love the spatial audio feature. Some times the effect is good and some depth and extra bass is present but most of the times it just lowers the overall sound quality especially at higher volume., That's not the case with AirPods Pro 2 that spatial audio makes a huge difference for the better on most cases. I found it nice while connected to the TV to test Dolby Atmos.

    ANC is good in almost all conditions. Very good during flights, good for distant and constant noises, but not effective at a crowded coffeeshop. Voices just cant be fully muted with any ANC. Transparency not on par with high end earbuds like AirPods Pro/Pro 2.

    The have a fair price/quality ratio but its not what most of YouTubers present. Most impressive feature is the mic quality. It is really good & coupled with iPhone's voice isolation mode you can walk on a busy street on NYC with workers, people and cars all around and no-one will probably notice you are not calling them from your office, its that good.

    Case is a true jem and Wireless charging is a big plus at this price range. Glossy inside is bad and so is the white led for the battery. The bar should just change colour to indicate the battery level Green-Orange-Red.

    Fit and comfort is impressively good! One day I realised I had them on them "all day" because I got a battery low voice but for those that wear earrings be aware that they will hit the buds during walking and it's annoying.

    Connectivity is good but for me it has been a bit hit of miss. Still trying to figure it out if switching from Macbook to an iPhone call works. Sometimes during calls they just switch to MacBook output even if nothing is playing and once they switched to iPhone speaker even if I selected them as output. I had to disconnect them from MacBook to make the call.. I'll have to test this more to be sure.

    The lack of customising the call experience & use press and hold to adjust the volume (could be fixed over a firmware update) is a big NO for me. If I knew it I would probably not buy them as this ruins their best feature (mic quality) and makes hard to control everything (play/pause/skip track-previous track/ volume up -down/ and on-transparency/ voice assistant) without using my phone/watch so that's bad for a new pair of buds.

    Hope my thoughts and review helps! :)

    PS: Please soundcore add press & hold as a control option & in call controls customisation.
