Hey Rob would you mind uploading a pic showing the Liberty+ in your ears so we can see how far they stick out compared the the neo?

That was one of the only problems I had with the Liberty+ they just stuck out a little to far and were a little heavy on the ends leading to the earbuds falling out when I got sweaty.

Great review and pics BTW☺️

Ask and ye shall receive…I have big ears so they tend to hold most earbuds. but I thought the liberty+ fit was good, but once I got the Neo’s I saw just how much better the fit could be and I have been using the Neo’s daily since I got them.


And heres the Liberty Air

Nice thanks bud. Yeah the neo look like they are way more streamlined than the Liberty+ never had a problem with the Air.

Nice in depth review :+1::smile:

@Tank that dual pairing with BT 5 thing, explain a little more, so I’d pair each bud …? I can then turn them on/off individually and use individually? Can you show us screenshots from the phone? You’d pair them as a twin and then…?

These might finally be the item i’d go with, put one in each ear at a time, I do that a lot with my wired buds and basically wrap the wire around back of neck.

So what you do is pair them individually, once you do this they will not work together unless you hard reset them. But if your committed to using them as I do then follow these steps below, this is assuming you already have the right paired to your phone as you would normally.

Take the left earbud from the charging case, press and hold down the button until it turns off. Then press once to turn on the left earbud—the white indicator light will be flashing.
Then, quickly tap three times to enter pairing mode. The white indicator will flash slowly.
In your Bluetooth menu you will see “Soundcore Liberty Neo L” click it to pair it with your phone.

Someone likes true wireless earbuds too much :joy:. Jk, nice review!

Great review and explanation to the line of improvement as I was confused eith zolo, liberty air, neo.

Thanks, I do not fully understand it as I don’t have the Neo in my hands but I see its not many steps.

These items in some reviews seem to be saying a little fiddly to operate. I won’t link to those reviews as they were initiated here. Do you find them fiddly to operate (answer calls, volume)? What I also sometimes use is my smartwatch to be a remote control (such as if its raining and phone is in a bag).

So I for example sometimes answer a phone call by pressing the middle button on my current fave buds (Slim+) how is with these Neo?

The button presses are fine Imo, they don’t push further into my ear because they fit my ear exact, but I can see it being a problem for others. As far as answering calls you just press the button to answer and hang up. Calls seemed better with these than the liberty air, so for that it’s a huge plus for these.

Nice review and great thread, lot of information on BT5 and pairing :slight_smile:

Great review. :slight_smile: That’s awesome to know that you can actually use one bud at a time. I rarely wear both when I’m out walking since I like to hear my surroundings also. If my Airpods ever go out, I’d totally keep the Neo in mind as a replacement.

Great review @Tank. Have you tried to run with them? How strong is the iso? Because if I run I don’t want to be hit by a car or something else

Thanks and as much as I hate running I have started to run in a treadmill and they do hold up. But since I’m in a treadmill I’m not sure how well they keep outside noise to a minimum or if it’s total isolation

Awesome. Great review. I’ve been curious about this style of wireless. I can’t decide between these and the Liberty.

@Element321 as you can see I have them both, and while I loved the liberty air the Neo’s have more bass and just sound better overall. So it’s what I use now at work, and since I found I can connect then individually and also use them together but independently to get better battery life it is a no brainier these are my go to headphones

Shoulda jumped on the ‘We Love Testing’ option :wink:

Did the same with mine…as for the life of me they would not stay in my lugs…even just sat still drinking a coffee :slight_frown: These do look like they hold better and seem overall more streamline when in ear…might have to have a dabble when they next come up on an offer :grin:
