Soundcore D1200 Liberty Buds, white half-in-ear earbuds with adaptive ANC and 30-hour playtime

Some listeners want earbuds that block out more of their surroundings, others prefer a fit that lets ambient sounds through. Soundcore Liberty Buds take the half-in-ear approach, with adaptive noise cancelling available when you want to reduce distractions.

Removable ear fins help keep the earbuds in place, and you can choose from four sizes to tailor the fit. The white finish and wireless Bluetooth connection make them suited to everyday listening across compatible phones, tablets and laptops.

Need to switch between a busy commute and a call? Real-time noise adjustment, four-mic AI call processing and spatial audio give these earbuds a range of uses beyond music.

Usage tips

Choose the ear-fin size that feels secure, then connect the earbuds to the soundcore app after first pairing and update their firmware. This gives you a practical starting point for everyday use. Their half-in-ear design lets ambient sound through, while adaptive active noise cancelling monitors nearby sounds such as traffic, voices and wind and adjusts its noise-cancelling mode and level.

For a commute or a shared workspace, noise cancelling can help manage background distractions, for a walk where staying aware of your surroundings matters, the half-in-ear fit allows ambient sound to remain part of the listening experience. Four microphones and AI noise filtering are designed to make calls clearer when there is noise around you. Spatial audio adds an immersive presentation for music, including pop, classical and electronic tracks.

What you’ll notice day to day

The combination of a half-in-ear fit and removable fins offers a different feel from earbuds designed to sit more deeply in the ear. The fins provide a way to adjust how securely they sit, while the design still allows ambient sound through. That makes them a useful choice for listening while moving around or staying aware of nearby conversation, with adaptive noise cancelling available for noisier settings.

Battery life varies by listening mode: standard playback is rated for up to 7 hours on a charge and 30 hours with the case, while ANC playback is rated for up to 6 hours and 26 hours with the case. Buyers praise the sound, noise cancelling and battery life. Feedback on fit is mixed: some appreciate the secure feel of the fins, while others find the fit less comfortable. Buyer comments on reliability are also mixed.
