Anker just dropped the AeroClip 2, their latest open-ear clip earbuds, and they’re leaning hard into comfort, call quality, and compatibility with Apple devices.
The high-elasticity silicone C-bridge is supposedly 35% softer than the last generation and can handle more than 10,000 stretches without losing shape. They come in four colours: Hot Red, Moonlight White, Sunny Blue and Obsidian Black. Each bud is pretty compact at about 26.4 × 21.2 × 24.8 mm. The case is small too (roughly 51 × 27 × 44 mm), and the whole package (buds + case) weighs just 53.2 g.
Sound comes from a 12 mm dual-magnetic-circuit driver in an open acoustic setup. You get LDAC support alongside the usual AAC and SBC. Connectivity is Bluetooth 6.0 with dual-point, so switching between two devices is smooth.
Inside sits Anker’s own Thus AI chip, which they claim offers 150 times the peak computing power of the previous generation. A six-mic and sensor array focuses on isolating your voice rather than just filtering noise, which should help with clearer calls in busy places.
Battery life is solid: about 8 hours on the buds themselves and up to 32 hours total with the case. A quick 10-minute charge gets you around 4 hours of listening. The case supports wireless charging plus USB-C, and the buds are rated IP57 for dust and water resistance.
Because of the MFi certification, you also get real-time translation features when paired with an iPhone, plus Siri support and more reliable switching across iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Pricing and availability
In China they’re priced at 1,199 yuan, with a limited-time drop to 999 yuan. Internationally, the AeroClip 2 is expected around 22 September at roughly $170 / €180. A higher-spec AeroClip 2 Pro (with on-device recording and AI note-taking) is planned for later.
