So two things happened in my life that made me buy these headphones. First, I decided to get back into running after five years, but I've never liked over-ear headphones (too hot) or the stick-in earbuds (they hurt, they make my breathing sound stupidly loud, and I don't like being deaf to everything around me). Second, I discovered Sleep Token, so obviously I needed something high-quality enough to be able to appreciate god-tier music while on the run. These headphones absolutely delivered. PROS: 1. They sound incredible. Full disclosure, I'm not an audiophile, but they're up there. Crisp, layered sound. 2. They're super comfortable. I've worn them 12+ hours with no discomfort. The earpiece is slightly adjustable too. 3. Situational awareness! I like being able to hear when a cyclist "ON YOUR LEFT"s me. These babies do a stellar job of making me feel like I'm surrounded by music while still letting me hear the world around me. 4. They're DURABLE. Me? I should not have nice things. Anyone who knows me will tell you this. I have stepped on these headphones. I have dropped them onto the pavement. I have left them in a hot car in Florida for over 24 hours. They have been through my WASHING MACHINE. They do not care. They are the honey badger of headphones. 5. The tap functions are easy to use and adjustable/programmable. Always a plus. 6. The bluetooth range is pretty respectable. I can leave my phone in the house and make it halfway up the driveway before they start complaining. 7. They charge VERY fast, and they last a long time. Great for people like me who forget to charge them until I'm literally on the way to the trail. CONS 1. They are powerhouses, but not multitaskers. Don't combine music and Discord, unless you like hearing what your music would sound like if it was coming at you from an underwater abyss. 2. The tap feature is very sensitive. I've given someone a hug and their shoulder has paused my music. Wet hair and sweat can do it too, which is pretty inconvenient right after a solid workout. Nothing like one strand of wet hair cutting the music off right when you get to the best part. The cons are worth knowing about, but they weren't nearly enough for me to lower the rating. These headphones went through my washing machine a second time today. I held a small memorial for them to apologize for the way I am. They rose from the dead and laughed at me, and the audio quality was still flawless. 11/10 would recommend.

I have owned a pair of original Anker AeroFits for about 3 years now (I have really oily ears so traditional earbuds slip out), and they have been phenomenal. They still work just fine; I just started using them when I go to sleep (both for videos I fall asleep to and my alarm) and I wanted to have one dedicated set for that and the other pair for everything else. At first I was a little bit disappointed that they discontinued the original model and now have this newer model that is VERY different from the original, but just about everything that is different is an upgrade. The sound quality is much better, and you can make a lot of personalized edits to the audio settings on the app. The sound volume is fantastic! On my original AeroFit earbuds, I often had to have the volume all the way up if there was any kind of ambient noise. On the new model, I have the volume turned all the way down when I'm inside doing nothing, and with the volume all the way up, it's so loud it genuinely hurts my ears (that's a good thing!). Apparently the app also supports live translations, an AI assistant, and a ton of other features I wouldn't have even expected out of a pair of earbuds like this! As for the battery life, the technical specs show 10 hrs on one charge, 42 hours for the charge in the case included, which is just one hour less than the original model, which has an amazingly long battery life, so I expect much of the same here. The ONLY two even remote complaints that I would have is that the earbuds are ever so slightly less comfortable than the original ones, but they still feel natural, almost weightless, and it's well worth it for everything else to be upgraded. The other thing just being that the case is a little bit larger the original, but not by much. Other than that, these earbuds are an absolute dream and I love them! They have more features than I will ever need; and the features that I will use (like custom button controls and custom audio settings) make these the best earbuds that I have had the pleasure of using.

Pleasantly surprised by the quality of these. I come from the Shokz openrun pro 2, and was a bit skeptical about trying these (mainly because they're half the price). But wow... The sound quality and volume are superior, they're comfortable. They don't feel as secured as the shokz, which is expected as they're not one piece. The microphone works great for calls, dictation, etc. One downside compared to the Shokz openrun pro 2 is that these don't have volume controls, you have to control volume through your phone. The fit is good, they definitely hold very well while running. At the gym, the only small issue is when lying down, they don't fall off, but they don't feel as secure. Overall great product, great quality, and budget friendly. Would recommend for runners and cyclists.

I've been down the 'Open Ear Design' rabbit hole for a while now, and there's two things you notice right away - since your ear canals are (hopefully) wide open... The sound is like a Bluetooth speaker invisibly floating in space that only you can hear. Pretty cool. Oftentimes, though, that magic Bluetooth speaker seems kinda gutless. Not so cool. Because of this limitation, I have tried to spend my way into something with genuine punch... And this one smokes them ALL. Regardless of price. I finally have the kind of bass response I can live with in a form factor I can reasonably forget about all day. They're on right now because taking them off makes no sense. The damn battery lasts 11 HOURS. PER BUD. No obstruction at all - I can use a Qtip with them on. It's fantastic. And the lows are REAL - usually open ear designs deliver low frequency sound the way sparkling water delivers the taste of fruit - barely enough to notice. Not these. Real fruit juice this time. Could they use a few extra features? Kinda yeah, especially for this price point. I also have a pair of Cleer's Arc 3 Sport open buds (every feature you can imagine but roughly 100 bucks more) - and I would really like to see the Shokz support LDAC, Hi-Res Audio, Dolby Atmos, and at minimum a more detailed EQ setup (5-band feels outdated, like a Sony Walkman from the 90's) - but the Shoks still sent those Arc 3's to the junk drawer by getting the basics absolutely PERFECT - fit, controls, sound quality are all in a class by themselves. If they ever roll out a Snapdragon Sound version of these with all the audio features and a case with a display, It's game over for the competition in the entire category. Multipoint works fine. It's a feature you didn't know you needed until you have it. I come home with these on (paired to phone), leave them on, then turn on the living room TV (also paired) and watch something too grownup for my little kids because I'm the only one hearing it. Dad Mode. Fit is impressive - they are comfortable, low profile, extraordinary secure (I can't imagine an activity outside of Jiu-jitsu or boxing that would dislodge them) and play nicely with both glasses and hats. Sound quality is excellent, and boy am I a snob about that. Actually, I would dive right into the custom EQ and draw a bass-biased Harman curve and tinker with it a little - then it really gets a chance to deliver. This little device uses a dual driver (essentially a speaker and subwoofer in miniature) setup so there's a lot more headroom before distortion creeps in - the arch enemy of open ear designs. In summary, yes these are $180 earbuds... and they are worth every dime, in fact punching above their weight at that cost. I recommend you believe the hype and spend the money. You won't regret it.

Recent changes at work necessitated having headphones on for extended periods of time. Mostly passively listening with the occasional call. Thus began the search for the perfect pair. Started on with some on ear types. Unfortunately I just could not get used to them sitting on my ears for extended periods of time. My ears easily heat up and despite padding on the tops I would develop discomfort on the top of my head. Despite my concerns with open ear earbuds and sound quality I figured I would give them a shot. Started out with the Soundcore V20i's figuring with the reviews being as good as they were why not give them a shot. Unfortunately I had two issues. For an hour or so they were very comfortable but after that they began pinching the top of my ears and were no longer wearable. I realize everyones ears are different so perhaps this is a personal issue. Even bigger of a problem was though they just would not reliably connect to either of my devices. Maybe a bad pair? Don't know but the search continued. On to the Soundcore Aerofit 2. Pretty much a revelation. First off comfort is excellent. I truly can have them on for hours and totally forget they are there. Second sound quality is excellent. Purchased them for work but they have quickly become my go to for podcasts, casual music listening and audio books. Yes I have a couple pairs of in ear earbuds with excellent noise cancellation which are great for certain cases and definitely surpass the aerofit 2 in absolute sound quality. ButI was shocked just how good the aerofit sound when using the soundcore app to fine tune them. App is great for customizing touch controls as well which work probably better than any similar tap style earbuds. One suggestion. Change whatever you like but leave the single tap set to none. Much easier to avoid inadvertent changes that way. Overall just an excellent pair of open ear earbuds. And I forgot to mention battery life which is insanely good. While they are more expensive than some of the cheap ones you can buy for me they are worth every penny.

Alright folks. I have to say these are checking all the boxes that I needed them to. I was looking for a good quality open ear earbuds, that I could still hear everything around me, was loud enough for me to hear when I am in my work truck driving down the road(concrete mixers are kinda loud), and were comfortable for long periods of time. Open Ear- So obviously, they don't block my ears so hearing the radio or people talking or anything else is easy. Volume- The volume on these is not lacking. I do not need to max out the volume to hear what I need during work. I use these at about 3/4 volume, and that's plenty. I'm mainly using these to hear radio transmissions, but they also work great for phone calls. Comfort- For all intents and purposes, these are comfortable... for me. Mileage may very for you though. The adjustment system they use does work pretty well. They are light, and the part that goes around the front of your ear is curved to lessen contact. A lot of the time, I can forget I am wearing them. Sometimes they do start to hurt, and I just need to readjust them. They work pretty well with hats and glasses as well. Keep in mind, I'm wearing these for about 12 hours per day. Battery Life- For me, no issues. I'm not constantly using them though, communications are not all the time, and I'm not listening to music with them or anything. Your mileage may very. After a 12 hour shift I'm usually still about 60%. Sound Quality- Pretty good, I'm not an audiophile though. It's very clear, and the phone app gives you options on what you would like to hear. Better bass, better lyrics etc. The noisier the environment, the harder it'll be to hear. That's the tradeoff. Phone Calls- I have used these several times for phone calls, quality is great for me. The the other party(my wife for instance) had no issues hearing me and I sounded very clear, keep in mind I was going down the road at 50 mph with the window open. Sounds like the noise cancelling works!! Multi-Connection- So I have paired these to my work phone for regular audio and my personal phone for just calls. And it works like a charm. I can hear radio calls from my work phone just fine, and when I get a phone call, as soon as I answer it switches to the call. I couldn't be happier here. Don't pass these up if they are ticking the same boxes for you.

1 star is harsh but gosh, I have so many issues with these that just kept piling on over time, I couldnt even do half a year with these earbuds. To start, I am coming off of Samsung Galaxy Live Buds that were about 5 years old at this point. They are the most comfortable buds I found that you dont physically stick a little piece in your ear, they just rest securely in your ear and I can use them while working out, sleeping etc and I figured these would be a good one since theyre highly rated, thousands of reviews, about 4.4* at the time of writing this, and frankly I cannot understand it. Every user has a different experience with products and I was one of those that were maybe unlucky, got minor issues with the product (that pile up) or just frankly dont know how to use these things. Comfort and Stability I found them to be a less comfortable than my previous buds, but they were fine, some discomfort with longer periods of use. There are 3 settings you can click the earbuds in to get a better fit. Secure enough, but Ive never been quite confident in them. Ive had them pop off during car rides, slip off during exercise (nothing rigorous) and even just laying sideways would result in one eventually coming out unless there is pressure on it (like laying your ear on a pillow). Frankly, minor things that I would mention to someone thinking about buying. Soundcore App Its fine, I was able to swap the short 1 press to be nothing and the long 1 press to be pause/play. Winner in my book, accidental touches arent as much of an issue with that. You can see the battery level of the case and the buds while connected via bluetooth but if the buds are charging in the case you cannot see their level unless you open it up. Dual connection is also very nice if you go between multiple devices. Sound Quality Its good, Im not expecting much from buds but these were better than my previous buds. However, over time Ive noticed that I had to jack up the volume to hear my music, to a point where it was maxed on my phone and I still felt it wasnt loud enough. Others could hear my music and I was sitting here trying to increase the volume still. I clean them routinely with isopropanol wipes along with the case but I guess they got super gunked up in the speaker portion. Ill probably end up taking these to an ultrasonic cleaner to bring it back to life in terms of sound. Lets get to the things that resulted in my HATING these things. Charging Starting with the charging, the buds just lay in the case and there are two pins that make contact with the buds and charge them. Great, we've seen them plenty of times, however, numerous times I have pulled my earbuds from the case and come to 1 fully charged bud, 1 dead bud. Why? I dont know for sure. I can only assume that the space in the case is so tight between the two earbuds that putting one in the case might knock the other off the contacts (the wire that wraps around your ears touch between the two earbuds while in the case) resulting in a non charging bud. You have a light on the case that shows a bud got placed in but thats it. You would think it could be like, a half LED light that says, the left bud is in, or the right, or a full LED bar if both are in, but it doesnt show that on the case. You can only hope that BOTH are charging. It has happened so many times to me that I will push down on the area that makes contact to ensure they are charging. I sometimes use 1 earbud at a time and swap, so swapping to a dead one is pretty frustrating, but equally as frustrating after putting my earbuds in, case in the bag and realizing one is dead. Connectivity The equally frustrating problem I have is connectivity with the earbuds. My morning while Im trying to get out of the door is throwing the buds in my ear, case in the bag (dont want it in my pocket) and Im out the door before I get my music or podcasts going. Once Im on the street and get it going do I notice sound only coming out of one ear....but didnt we just go over this? No, separate issue. The bud did not connect with my phone properly, it could be fully charged and have this problem come up. How do you fix this? Well just place the non-working bud back in the case (that you threw in your bag or left at home) and pop it back in your ear and problem solved. Dont have the case with you? Tough, you cannot use it. Easily solvable? Sure but why do I need to do this, I dont even have this issue with 3 dollar Woot buds. I really wanted to like these, have really tried to give it a chance and tried to work with the issues I have with it but it is such a bummer to spend this much money on this type of experience. I am happy for those who have these and love them, but good lord, these brand new buds have taken the backup position and even made me think "Do I need to listen to music/podcasts for the next couple of hours"? It has been a frustrating experience using these. I have been using my Galaxy Live buds again, dont have charging or connectivity issues with those, and they stay in my ear better and sound just fine after 5 years, so why couldnt these do it for me for even 1 year? Extremely frustrated with this purchase.

I feel like I already wrote a review, but if so, this is an update on my March 2025 purchase. I got the AeroFit 2 in March 2025 (in blue, if that matters). I love it! Great battery life (if I listen all day long to audiobooks, YouTube, etc, they last about 10-12 hours before fully draining the battery). For ease of use of the earbuds and the app, they get 5 stars, too. I like being able to set different options on the left and right earbuds, and change the volume profile to optimize for spoken word vs music. And it's fantastic at blocking out noises for the person on the other end of a phone call! We have a very vocal cat, and no one can hear him. Here's why it's actually getting a 3-star review: 1) After about 3 months the left earbud volume is stuck on the lowest setting. Even with volume cranked all the way up, I can barely hear anything. It's not my hearing. I checked other earphones and have no trouble hearing on the left ear. Full disclosure, I did drop the case a couple times and the earbuds spilled out both times (after which I put stickers on the case to make it more grippy), so maybe the left bud got damaged. 2) Intermittently, when I pull the earbuds out of the case, the left one doesn't activate. I have to put it back in the case and close it, then open it and take the earbud out again. It always works the second time. Probably the same thing that affects the left volume is causing the inability to turn on. 3) This one is nitpicky because I'm a woman with long hair and like to wear earbuds all the time. The touch-control on the earbuds are super sensitive. When I have wet hair, I have to turn off the controls (through the app) because the brush of my wet hair triggers the controls constantly, making volume fluctuate, pausing playback, etc. My partner also has a pair of these (it was either get him a pair or he would steal mine) from April 2025, his still work perfectly, he would give them a 5-star review. And, if it matters, I'm buying another pair to replace mine and I'll keep the defective set as a backup.

Muy bonitos, el sonido es claro y tienen buena calidad.

Best Open-Ear Headphones. Good value for the money.

The soundcore AeroFit 2 is an absolute game-changer for anyone who dislikes the feeling of traditional in-ear buds; the open-ear design is incredibly comfortable for all-day wear and allows me to stay aware of my surroundings without sacrificing audio quality. The bass is surprisingly rich and punchy for this form factor, and the Hi-Res audio provides a level of detail that I haven't experienced in other open-ear headphones; the adjustable ear hooks ensure a perfect, secure fit that doesn't budge during workouts. I love the convenience of the wireless charging case and the 42-hour total battery life is impressive; the IP55 rating gives me confidence when wearing them in the rain or during intense exercise. They are well-built, stylish, and deliver a premium listening experience that makes them worth every penny.
