Anker Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro vs Google Pixel Buds

Verdict

The Anker Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro is a great choice for those looking for a high-performing earbud below the $200 range. It offers excellent sound quality with customizable EQ settings, and its companion app provides plenty of customization options. The ANC is also great, though it only works for constant sounds like the rumble of a plane/bus. However, there have been some issues with battery life and device switching/connecting that may be improved over time.

Verdict

The Google Pixel Buds A series offer solid value for money at 99 quid, however they lack active noise cancellation which can be found in some competitors at this price point. The battery life is short, lasting only 2-3 hours max when listening to music and there have been reports of audio randomly stopping during conference calls. Additionally, there are concerns about the long-term reliability of the buds due to their similar design to the Pixel Buds second generation.
