Anker's Soundcore brand is expanding its Thus processing chip, which delivers standout call quality by cancelling ambient noise, beyond its Liberty 5 Pro earbuds into a wider range of products. At IFA 2026 in Berlin, the company unveiled the Space 2 Pro headphones, AeroClip 2 and AeroClip 2 Pro open-clip earbuds, and the Liberty Buds 2, marking the first time the chip has appeared in over-ear headphones and signalling a broader rollout of the noise-cancelling technology across its lineup.

The Space 2 Pro, the first headphones to feature the Thus chip, uses a six-microphone array for voice isolation and eight microphones for active noise cancellation that Soundcore claims is 1.5 times stronger than its predecessor, alongside up to 60 hours of battery life; it launches on 22 September for $200. The AeroClip 2 arrives the same day at $170, while the AeroClip 2 Pro adds AI note-taking with the ability to transcribe online meetings and calls, plus 120 free transcription minutes monthly for two years, though its price and release date are unconfirmed. The lightweight Liberty Buds 2, at just 4.7 grams, also gain the Thus chip and launch on 22 September for $130.
