Anker AeroClip 2 Pro earbuds double as an AI notetaker atop an open-air design
Anker's new AeroClip 2 series open-ear earbuds come equipped with an audio chip that can handle AI note-taking and translation, with Apple MFi certification and LDAC support for hi-res streaming in tow.
Anker showcased their latest earbuds, the AeroClip 2 Pro, at IFA 2026. These clip-style earbuds are touted as the world's first AI note-taking open-ear clip-on earbuds. They feature a built-in AI assistant named Anka, powered by the in-house Thus AI chip. This AI can transcribe and summarize audio recordings, help users recall specific details, and even offer seamless export in formats like PDF and DOCX.
The earbuds support dual 11mm drivers with LDAC for high-resolution audio streaming and can last 10 hours on a single charge. They also support AI-powered real-time translation when paired with an iPhone, complete with Apple MFi certification. The earbuds include features like voice extraction for clear calling in noisy surroundings, 12mm dynamic drivers for high-resolution audio output, and 9 hours of playback per charge.
Fast charging provides four hours of listening time with just 10 minutes of charging. They also support wireless charging and Google Fast Pair. The price for the AeroClip 2 Pro is set to be $169.99, starting September 22 in the US.
