Anker soundcore is a frequent feature in our guides to speakers and headphones here at What's The Best, so we're excited by the recent launch of the soundcore AeroClip.
The AeroClip earbuds aim to cater to music lovers who also prioritise comfort and the ability to listen to their favourite tracks while exercising. During initial testing we've found that they offer excellent audio, an eye-catching look and a straightforward set-up.
Ring-shaped with 12mm drivers, the AeroClips are secured around the outer ear. Clear, powerful sound is promised, as is the allieviation of ear discomfort due an ergonomic, light design and speakers which sit over, rather than inside, the ear.
We've previously discussed moves towards open-ear and bone-conduction audio technology, with companies like Shokz, Nothing and OneOdio all offering their own headphone options (as well as other products from Anker like the soundcore V20i). By incorporating ambient noise, this type of headphone is ideal for anyone who needs to be aware of their surroundings while listening to music or podcasts, such as runners, cyclists and hikers.
The AeroClips each provide eight hours of playtime while the case offers a further 24 hours of charge. Other features include IPX4 water resistance and multipoint connection, allowing two devices to pair simultaneously. Users can control music and calls by tapping on the exterior band of the headphones.
Anker soundcore AeroClip come in Midnight, Champagne Mist and Smoky Brown and are available in the UK from 13 March for £129.99.
