  "account": "Belkin, a company well-known for power banks, cases and cables, has recently unveiled two new pairs of affordable earbuds with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). The SoundForm Isolate Buds cost £39.99 ($54, AU$80) and the SoundForm Dot Buds are priced at £29.99 ($40, AU$60). The Dot Buds come in two models: one with ANC for £29.99 and another without ANC for £19.99. Both pairs offer Multipoint connection, clear call quality, and 30-32 hour battery life. The Isolate Buds have a wing-style design to keep them in place during workouts, while the Dot Buds lack this feature. Despite being from a charging bank company, these earbuds seem to be a solid choice for those seeking ANC at a budget-friendly price.",
