Soundcore AeroClip by Anker Open Ear Earbuds, Clip On Earbuds, Open Ring

I love these things so much. I have giant over-ear cans from Sony that I love for their noise cancelling, but have always had issues with their lack of portability. Earbuds tend to either fall out or hurt my ears. Noise cancelling is great when you're stationary, but have always caused issues for me when I'm on the move - the lack of situational awareness annoys me. These ear cuffs solve that issue. My ear canal isn't isolated, I can hear my surroundings but ALSO hear my music/calls. I use them for conference calls all the time. They're fantastic. I can be in a store shopping and be on a call without being "that jerk" being loud because I can still hear myself AND my surroundings and know if I'm being a nuisance. Comfort-wise they're great - I tend to forget I have them on. Audio quality is quite nice, though not as nice as you would get with more premium options. For non-sealed calls/music they're surprisingly good, especially for the low cost. Battery life is also excellent. My ears can get a tiny bit sore if I wear them a lot for multiple days running, but they're still better than cans/buds. I just move them up or down a bit and then it's fine. They're snug but they don't pinch, YMMV depending on your ear shape/thickness. I've never used them anywhere near their maximum volume. That being said, if someone is on top of you they can hear your music/call depending on your volume, but they have to be really trying. If I ever end up losing and/or breaking these, I'm buying a replacement pair immediately.

I spent at least 10 hours looking for And watching videos about in the ear and over-the-ear earbuds. I got these as a Christmas present to myself and I couldn't be happier. All the videos were true, I purchased them for $99 before Christmas and they are excellent! It's the first pair of over-the-ear earbuds I've ever owned and I love them. I've always owned the noise canceling in ear earbuds but after hours of listening, they're so uncomfortable. But obviously that's a difference between the two. I like them because I can hear everything around me at a lower volume, situational awareness, yet they're loud enough to drown out outside noise depending on what you're doing. They're so comfortable I literally don't even feel them on my ears. Emphasis, on my ears. Additionally, they will never fall off no matter what you're doing, unless you're boxing or wrestling. The sound is great, the app is great and the comfort is perfect. They connect to two devices at once and while you're watching one and then switch to the other it changes flawlessly and goes back flawlessly. IE, TV to phone. Based on my OCD research, they are perfect for what I need them for. Hearing outside noise when I want to and being loud enough when I'm outside. I almost forgot, the call clarity is perfect. I can hear everyone. And when I tell them I have these new earbuds in they tell me they can hear me perfectly, indoors and outside. Like I said, I reviewed so many for hours and decided on these. I'm so glad I did. 5 stars all the way. Not one negative thing about them. Oh, And the battery life lasts forever. I've had them in my ears for over 7 hours and they still held up. The app will tell you how much battery life remains and how much battery is left in your charging case. And I think if you drop them in the case for 15 or 30 minutes you get another 3 hours of use. I'm guessing 30 minutes in the case, they're fully charged. Anker, who I thought was only battery chargers owns soundcore. I still have one of their battery chargers from 10 years ago and it's working like the day bought it. I really hope this long review convinces you to buy what I was hoping for. Which is exactly what wanted and got. And I wish more normal people like me would post like I just did, to let people know honestly what they should buy without being sent one for free and then BSing everyone. Wait until they're on sale for $99 again.

Outstanding customer service. The best ear buds for me so far. Unfortunately after 7 months of 5 day a week use about 1-3 hours a day cycling they developed distortion in the right ear then both ears. I tried all the usual steps, cleaning, resetting, equalizer settings but even at low volume they sounded bad. I purchased with Amazon from the Anker store in October. I turned in a warranty request on Saturday Apr and received an email an hour later. I followed the trouble shooting steps they asked for and it it did not help and so replied back. A bit later they offered to send a full replacement but only in black. I wanted my original color and replied back. The next day they offered to send me my original color ear buds only no charging case which was great. The charging case was fine. They were delivered today and work fantastic. Great customer service with just a few emails. I have had about 6 different types of Anker ear buds in the last 10 years and all held up well. I am a bicycle commuter riding all year around in Colorado even in low 10 degree mornings. These are the best so far as I can wear both ear buds and still hear cars, people, etc. when riding. You can customize what the double and single tap control for left and right bud using their app and it saves those settings without having to keep the app open. I am using volume up, track advance and volume down track previous. The taps work even under head gear covering my ears! I wish I could do more than two or three taps like 4 taps so I could add a pause or mute. The only negative is when riding at high speeds the wind noise drowns out the music but that is to be expected as they are open ear. With head gear on over the ears in cool weather this is not an issue. I can wear my helmet and glasses with no ear buds hooks over the top of my ear. These do not come out when riding very good secure fit. I know they will fix the distortion issue as it seems common but I am very happy with these for cycling and in their app I changed to LDAC which sounds even better.

I had been looking for new earbuds with some sort of 'be aware' mode on them - I have two pairs of galaxy bud pro 2 and while they do have this function, it only works with both earbuds in. I have pretty severe hearing loss in my left ear due to meniere's disease, and I want to be able to wear a single earbud at work sometimes, but if I have an earbud in the right my hearing is bad enough that I can't make out much with just my left ear. So I was on the lookout for some cheap-ish earbuds just for work, that would do this with only one earbud in use. I had gotten plenty of answers and was about to shell out close to 300 for a nice pair that I'd end up using everywhere, but then someone on a forum said 'honestly since I've gotten my open ear buds I have never used the safety / be aware mode on any of my others'. I said I'd scrolled past this type of bud before but had honestly just skipped right past - with how they're made and it just being a tiny speaker in your ear, that everyone around you would be able to hear what you're playing and at that point I might as well just play audio out of my watch or something. I'm SO glad I looked into it further and bought these. I'm sort of a sound quality snob, I have owned everything from jlab to Sennheiser and when I say the sound coming out of these is fantastic for the size of the hardware and the fact that its not direction in / enclosed over your ear, I'm not exaggerating. I bought them mostly for audiobooks, but I've had music on them too and have no complaints. They are so comfortable that I quite literally forget I have them on - yesterday towards the end of my shift I was digging around in my pockets thinking 'oh great they fell out and i lost it already' until i turned my head and just barely felt that it was STILL ON MY EAR. 😭 the part that sits in your inner ear is so small and smooth, I have a conch piercing and have no issues wearing either a stud or a hoop along with these, which is usually a factor with other earbuds (one of the reasons I used my galaxy buds a lot of the time) and the back part doesn't mess with my 3 lobe piercings or the back of the conch. I can hear EVERYTHING. Everything. I couldnt be happier with this part - I can have them in and have the volume up pretty darn high, and can still SO easily make out the people around me. It's not muffled, I dont have to ask them to repeat themselves or try to combine lip reading with the half-sound I'm hearing. They autoconnect with no issue, they connect to multiple devices at once, the range before Bluetooth issues cut things up seems to be far greater than other buds I have, and the battery life gets me through an entire work week easily. At first I thought the battery life far exceeded whats advertised, but then realized that because I'm only using the one bud at a time the case isn't going through it's charge as quickly as normal - after a 32 hour work week though, the case is still at ~60%... Could not be happier. Would gladly spend the money again.

Day one, five minutes in and from someone who has tiny ear canals, these feel amazing. Earbuds have ALWAYS been so painful to wear for any length of time. I can hardly even feel these on my ears and the sound is great. I'm someone who doesn't like noise cancelling because I am usually needing to be aware of my surroundings (listening for my toddler, etc.) so I like that I can clearly hear my music but also hear the outside world. If you're a fellow tiny ear person or have inner ear piercings looking for something to wear without pain, the size of these might be your answer.

I purchased the Soundcore open ear buds because my ears are too small for in ear style earbuds and I wanted to try this style. I've been using these almost every day for the last 6 months. In general, I would say they are a solid purchase but there are several major annoyances that prevent me from rating them higher. Pros: I genuinely like the sound. I'm a casual music listener so things like bass levels or more nuanced audio quality aren't things that affect my listening enjoyment. For what I use them for - phone calls, Spotify, social media videos - I think they're perfect. I feel like when I'm using them I'm getting a surround sound experience and I like that I don't get that isolated sensation that comes with traditional bud style headphones that are noise cancelling. Battery life has been excellent and after 6 months of using almost every day for 1-4 hours a day they still work like new. Cons: My biggest gripe is the connectivity, or more specifically the ability to disconnect. They connect to my phone just fine. Getting them to disconnect when I'm done is so frustrating. When I finish with them and put them back in their holder, more often than not they remain connected to my phone. They will register as being in the carrier and charging, but the bluetooth will stay connected and continually override my phone audio. Cleaning the sensors, un-pairing and then re-pairing the device, manually switching to phone audio from bluetooth are all no-gos. It has gotten to the point where I'm ready to be that person walking around in public with my phone on speakerphone because I'm loathe to connect to these headphones again once I finally manage to get them to disconnect. My other complaint would be the weight and general ear comfort. When you seat them properly on your ear, they are comfortably. However, gravity is going to do its thing and as a result they slide down fairly quickly and the weight of them resting against my earlobe when this happens can be very uncomfortable. Yes, they can be repositioned but if you try to do that while talking on the phone you'll end up disconnecting the call and now my friends and family are just growing accustomed to being hung up on a few times each time we chat.

I had high hopes for these earbud headphones, and they surprised me. Firstly, I got this because of the design. I was specifically looking for clip-on earphones that look like the communicators used in J.J. Abrams' television show 'Fringe'. In the 2008 show, an alternate reality uses a similar-looking earring-band headphone to talk to each other. I thought they were cool at the time and didn't think those things could be possible. Enter 2016, with the release of AirPods, and earbuds changed after that. While this doesn't look exactly like the TV show version (which had a band nearly twice the size), this Soundcore AeroClip is a reasonably realistic interpretation of the design. It clips around your earlobes, looks like a cool earring, and is open-eared so you can hear your surroundings and your music. I've seen similar versions that tried to make the ring portion smaller, but I like the thickness of this band along with the ring shape. The audio quality on this is astounding the first time you put it on. If you are home alone with little environmental noise, these things pack a punch. It's got solid bass and a good sound profile. This was very surprising. However, I live in New York City and ride subways a lot. On the subway, it's hard to hear your music unless you turn up the volume. So depending on where you have these on might cause you to have a different experience. It does not have noise cancellation because it is an open-ear design meant for you to hear your surroundings. In terms of customization, a Soundcore app will allow you to adjust the EQ to your preference, even though the default is solid. You can also adjust the tapping on each earpiece to do different things. Example: for me, the right earbud is tapped twice to pause music, and three times to skip to the next track; and the left side I set to tap three times to increase volume, and twice to decrease. This is all customizable to what makes sense to you. The app is also a way to upgrade any firmware in the future. Overall, I really like these headphones. It's got deep bass and customization. And I get to live my TV fantasy of owning future tech, which, when compared to 2008—we are in the future! Highly recommended.

Been using these for a while and can now say that they're good but maybe not quite their full price. More comfortable than the c40i and the battery is noticeably longer. Despite that, I have to charge both case and buds daily. Forgetting means I have no audio for a while the next day. I've not had any trouble with not tapping on the band for commands, as I've changed the prompts to what I don't use in the soundcore app (which you also need, it has the equalizer settings). The dual connections feature was a big draw for me, I primarily use my earbuds with my PC. The soundcore app's "dual connections" option has a button that returns the earbuds to pairing mode so a second device can detect. You *can* wear earrings with these so long as the narrowest section of your ear doesn't have anything, so no cuffs. But if you do, a *small* hoop might not interfere. I don't generally notice any pain until I shift them around a tad after a few hours, and then it's a bit painful. Doesn't last too long. I have piercings and people who do (or have tattoos) often feel sensation in their ears differently so YMMV. Moderate-ish noise cancellation. I use these at home, can't speak for busy spaces outdoors. I can hug a person and they've said they could barely hear my music. Mic quality seems good according to people in phone calls. You *cannot* use these with Discord calls, it needs different things for in/output that these earbuds don't have. You can listen, but not speak. Size of buds is fine. Size of case is fine. Getting the little silicone sleeves on is a pain in the ass, though. Keep that little box close because you may be changing out the sleeves often while figuring out which is best. It took me a couple days to decide which were the comfiest. I didn't tear any of them but they do seem delicate so I wouldn't try nesting them. Charging seems fine. Was easy enough to pair once Win11 got with it, but if they won't connect again later, you'll have to do the remove/readd dance. (Probably Win11 Bluetooth troubleshooter to make it fix its driver) Lastly, this is a great non-invasive earbuds style, but they are still designed to pipe sound DIRECTLY into your ears! Pay attention to your volume when you first use these lest you blow yourself out of the water.

Très agréablement surpris. Habitué aux intras qui ne faisaient que tomber et se perdre. J’ai décidé d’essayer ce type d’écouteurs qui donne l’impression de ne pas en porter mais envoient un son très agréable dans les oreilles. Comme des mini enceintes accrochées comme un bijou d’oreille. Et les basses certes moins puissantes que des intras mais quand même assez présentes

Una de mis grandes dudas era si me iban a escuchar bien en las llamadas, ya que vi muchas opiniones diciendo que del otro lado no te escuchaban bien, total me arriesgué ya que ahora casi no se habla por teléfono, pero para mi sobresa si me escuchan muy bien y lo sé porque me he grabado, además he estado en lugares ruidosos y siguen escuchándome. Sin embargo, me costaron trabajo llevarlos, creo que a las 2 semanas me acostumbré, al principio terminaba muy adolorido y me los quitaba inmediatamente. Y ahora, he creído que los he perdidos y nada que los llevo puestos. El sonido es muy bueno, obvio no son unos Bose, pero tienen buena fidelidad y hasta bajos. Tienen esa gran ventaja que no necesariamente los tienes que tener en una posición, los puedes ajustar en varias para poder escuchar o dejar de escuchar el exterior. Y una vez que te acostumbras a ellos es fácil confundir sonidos de un video con la vida real porque escuchas ambos. Lo único que no me gustó fue su alcance, más o menos son unos 8 metros de distancia. Hay espacios ancluso que normalmente caminaba libremente y ahora me tengo que llevar el télefono o pausar mi audio y cuando regrese volver a reproducir. Fuera de ahí son casi-perfectos para mi, aunque coincido con varias opiniones, no te puedes acostar con ellos y es una lástima porque su app trae varias grabaciones de meditación y vaya que me han servido, aunque si te puedes quedar dormido con uno solo. Para mi son 5 estrellas porque cumplen con lo que necesito, pero si tienen sus inconvenientes

Mega pozytywne zaskoczenie!! Słuchawki są ultralekkie, ich komfort noszenia nieporównywalny do żadnych innych, a jakoś słuchania nie odbiega od słuchawek dokanałowych. Z całego serca polecam!

I’ve always preferred open-ear earbuds. I don’t like being completely cut off from the outside world, especially when I’m outdoors, and I also don’t like having rubber tips sitting inside my ear canal. I used the Galaxy Buds Live for years and loved them, but after heavy use their volume had become extremely low, so I started looking for a replacement. After considering a few options, I decided to give the Soundcore AeroClip a try. Oh boy, these are good. The comfort is probably the biggest highlight. They’re incredibly comfortable to the point where you can forget you’re even wearing them. They sit securely without putting pressure inside your ears, which is exactly what I want from open-ear earbuds. I can wear them for the entire day without any fatigue or discomfort whatsoever. They also fit extremely well and stay securely in place, even when running or doing sports. At no point do I get that feeling that they might fall off or that I need to adjust them. The sound quality is also very clear and crisp, and probably better than I expected from an open-ear design. Vocals are clear and easy to pick out, and the overall sound feels surprisingly spacious. Obviously, you’re not going to get the same deep, physical bass you would from earbuds that seal your ear canal, but there’s still a respectable amount of bass here and I’ve never felt like the music was missing something because of it. The Soundcore app also gives you several EQ presets as well as the option to create your own custom EQ, which makes it easy to tweak the sound to your liking. When my surroundings get noisy, I can simply turn up the volume and they still do the job, but this is obviously one of the compromises of using open-ear earbuds. In very noisy environments, there’s only so much they can do, and they’re not going to isolate you from the outside world like traditional in-ear earbuds would. For me, though, that’s part of the point. I’d rather have that awareness of my surroundings most of the time. Battery life has been excellent for me, easily lasting through an entire day of use. The Soundcore app is also pretty good, with several sound profiles and the option to create your own custom EQ. Call quality has been another pleasant surprise. The microphones and noise cancellation do a great job, and I’ve been told that I sound clear even when I’m in noisy environments. Overall, these are very close to perfect for what I want from earbuds. They’re comfortable, sound great, let me stay aware of my surroundings, have good battery life, and perform well for calls. I can highly recommend the Soundcore AeroClip.

Excellent produit pour la course à pied et le travail à domicile. Les basses, les médiums, les aigus tout y est.
