Tired of headphones that either cover your whole head or plug up your ears? We found a great deal on the Soundcore AeroFit 2 by Anker, our favorite ear-hook headphones to date.

As of Aug. 15, you can get the Soundcore AeroFit 2 by Anker open-ear headphones for $99.98, down from $129.99, at Amazon. That's a 23% discount and a $30.01 savings.

The AeroFit 2 feature an open-ear design that rests comfortably on the ear without entering the ear canal. (This is a huge plus for me personally, since my AirPods almost always fall out.) The adjustable ear hooks make it easier to bring the sound closer without blocking the ear canal, and you can get a max boost of 7.5dB.

They’re not noise-cancelling, but for the price, they’re still a solid choice for anyone who can’t stand traditional headphones. You’ll also get 10 hours of playtime on a single charge (which is extendable to 42 hours with the wireless charging case).

One of the coolest features of these headphones is that they have a free AI translation function that supports 100 languages with real-time response. To use it, you’ll need to download the Soundcore app to version 3.8.7 or later and make sure the earbud firmware is updated to the latest version.
