Buying decision

Should you buy it?

The Live Buds 4 are open-fit bud-style earbuds with 10mm drivers, adaptive ANC, six mics, Bluetooth 6.0 with LE Audio and Auracast, and IP55. The touchscreen case handles controls, and battery runs 10 hours per charge with ANC off, 8 with it on, and 40 in total with Qi charging. The bud design limits ANC, and calls are weaker than the sound.

Listeners who prefer a bud fit and smart case controls
