A new leak is giving earbuds fans an early look at what could be two of Anker’s most feature-packed true wireless releases yet: the Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro and Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro Max. Both models are expected to arrive as premium companions to the already announced Soundcore Liberty 5, with a strong focus on smarter audio, upgraded noise cancellation, and a charging case that does a lot more than top up the battery.
Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro (model D1203): key specs and standout features
The Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro is said to use a dedicated compute-in-memory AI chip called Anker Thus. According to the leak, this chip powers an AI-based audio upscaling feature, aiming to improve how music and other audio sound in real time.
On the noise-canceling side, the Liberty 5 Pro is expected to include Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation 4.0. That’s notable because it’s positioned as a step up from Adaptive ANC 3.0 found on the Soundcore Liberty 5, suggesting better real-world performance at reducing background noise in changing environments.
Other leaked highlights include:
– IP55 dust and water resistance rating
– Dolby Atmos spatial audio for a wider, more immersive soundstage
– Bluetooth 6.1 support
– Bluetooth Multipoint for connecting to more than one device and switching more easily between them
A charging case with a touchscreen display
One of the most eye-catching details is the charging case, which reportedly includes a touch display. Instead of relying only on your phone or earbud taps, the case itself is said to let you control playback, switch connected devices, adjust ANC settings, and check remaining battery life. If accurate, this could be a major convenience feature for people who want quick controls without pulling out their phone.
Battery life and charging
Battery estimates in the leak suggest solid endurance for a premium set of earbuds:
– With ANC on: up to 6.5 hours on the earbuds, 28 hours total with the case
– With ANC off: up to 10 hours on the earbuds, 45 hours total with the case
Fast charging is mentioned, and the case is expected to support both USB-C wired charging and wireless charging.
Expected price and colors
The Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro is rumored to launch in the US at $169.99, in Black and White.
Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro Max (model D1204): what’s different
The Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro Max is expected to share many of the Pro model’s core features, including the Anker Thus AI chip, Adaptive ANC 4.0, Dolby Atmos spatial audio, and Bluetooth 6.1. However, the leak claims two big upgrades set it apart.
First, the charging case reportedly doubles as a voice recorder, complete with its own microphones. The leak specifically mentions 8 microphones, which suggests the case is designed to capture clearer audio for recordings.
Second, the Liberty 5 Pro Max is said to include voiceprint recognition, meaning it can recognize the owner’s voice. If implemented well, this could help with personalized features and potentially improve voice-related functions.
Expected price and colors
The Liberty 5 Pro Max is rumored to cost $229.99 and come in Black and Gold.
Included accessories
Both the Liberty 5 Pro and Liberty 5 Pro Max are expected to ship with five pairs of ear tips in different sizes and three pairs of ear fins (also described as stabilizer arcs), giving users more options for fit and comfort.
If these leaked specs hold true, the Soundcore Liberty 5 Pro and Liberty 5 Pro Max could target buyers who want flagship-level wireless earbuds with advanced ANC, modern Bluetooth features, spatial audio, and an upgraded smart case experience—especially the Pro Max, which appears to push further into recording and voice-focused tools.
