Asoundcore Liberty 4 NC
| Feature | Needs |
|---|---|
| LDAC playback | Compatible Android 8.0 or later source. Enable Preferred Audio Quality in the soundcore app and install the required earbud firmware update. LDAC disables multipoint. |
| Full app features | Maker recommends soundcore app 3.2.7 or later and current earbud firmware. The companion app is not available for computers. |
| Computer calls | On Windows, select Liberty 4 NC Hands-Free for microphone and speaker in the call app. The maker Mac computer guidance instead says to select Liberty 4 NC for input and output. Stereo playback and hands-free calls use different Bluetooth audio modes. |
Source1Maker product pagesoundcore.com/products/liberty-4-nc-a3947z11Read 8 October 2026Current maker FAQ states Android 8.0 minimum for LDAC, a firmware update to enable it, and mutually exclusive LDAC and multipoint. App 3.2.7 and later is the maker recommendation for full features, without asserting that this is the latest app version. Windows conferencing guidance specifically names the Hands-Free endpoint. The separate Mac computer guidance names Liberty 4 NC without that suffix. The visible requirement preserves both platform scopes.8Owner's manualsalesforce-knowledge-download.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/000019752/en_US/000019752.pdfRead 8 October 2026LDAC section explicitly requires Android 8.0 or later and excludes two-device connection while LDAC is enabled.

| Feature | Needs |
|---|---|
| LDAC | Android 8.0 or later, enabled as Preferred audio quality in the soundcore app. Not available while connected to two devices. Spatial Audio is off while LDAC is on. LDAC raises power use and shortens playtime. |
| Google Fast Pair | Android 6.0 or later. |
| Head tracking | Spatial Audio Music mode set to head tracking in the soundcore app. Fixed mode has no head tracking. |

Charging guidance
The maker estimates about 1.5 hours for a full earbud charge in the case, about 3 hours for the case by cable, or 3.5 hours for the case wirelessly. Ten minutes of charging is claimed to provide four hours of earbud playback. The manual lists a 5 V / 0.8 A input. Use a certified USB-C charging cable and fully dry the buds and charging port first. ANC, LDAC, calls and volume affect runtime. LDAC and multipoint cannot be used together.2Maker product pagesoundcore.com/products/liberty-4-nc-a3947z11Read 8 October 2026Component-specific full-charge times come from the current maker FAQ. The original manual table only says up to 3 hours without component scope, so that generic table alone does not establish earbud-only timing. Input 5 V / 0.8 A is literal. No accepted charging watts are derived. Current A3947C guide separately lists a compatible Anker A2337 30 W adapter, which is not a bundled adapter or device input rating.
The manual gives up to 40 minutes for the earbuds. An empty case takes 2.5 hours by cable and 3.5 hours wirelessly. Case input is 5 V 1 A. The case stops charging the earbuds when its battery drops below 20 percent. Dry the earbuds and the USB-C port before charging.1Owner's manualsalesforce-knowledge-download.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/000021411/en_US/000021411.pdfRead 20 October 2026
