Anker launched a pair of “2-in-1” earbuds under its Soundcore brand at CES 2026, and it has a unique feature: They can be worn in two ways by adjusting the ear hooks. When you want active noise cancellation, you can wear it in-ear, and when you don’t, you can adjust the hooks for an open-ear design. This quirky product is called the Soundcore Aerofit 2 Pro —and you can already buy it for $150 , which includes a launch discount of $30.
When it comes to CES announcements, I’m always wary of vaporware, aka products that are announced but never shipped. That’s why I keep an eye out for products with a shorter launch window so you can actually get your hands on the things you’re excited about. The Soundcore Aerofit 2 Pro is one of those products. As Anker itself admits on the product page , the Aerofit 2 Pro isn’t for everyone. The biggest quirk of this product is its size. It’s a lot bigger than most ANC earbuds, and the ear hooks go all the way around your ears, which isn’t a fit that works for everyone. The charging case is also quite large, when compared with other ANC earbuds: It’s 4.23 inches (11cm) wide, and it supports wireless charging.

Most noise-cancelling headphones let you switch to a listening mode that allows ambient sounds via software, but the Aerofit 2 Pro lets you do this by physically twisting the earbuds. This adjustment seems quite seamless based on the demo video on the product page, but I haven’t tested it in-person, so I’ll reserve my judgment until I do. There are five levels of adjustment for the ear hooks, with levels 1 and 2 reserved for open-ear listening, and 4 and 5 for noise cancellation. Level 3 maintains your previous listening mode to prevent accidentally switching to a different mode.
