The Anker Soundcore Aerofit Pro is designed to let ambient sound through while you listen to music, but it fails to deliver on the quality front.

The universe works in mysterious ways sometimes. Within a week of each other, I received the Shokz Openfit and the Anker Soundcore Aerofit Pro true wireless earbuds to review. 

Both of these earbuds are designed to allow ambient sound into the ear, so you can listen to music or your favourite podcast while also hearing your surroundings. 

While they are mostly marketed to fitness enthusiasts needing to hear traffic, they are equally suited to office environments where you can enjoy a conversation with a co-worker without removing your earbuds.

Because I tested the Aerofit Pro alongside the Shokz Openfit, and they have a similar design and price, it’s inevitable I will make some comparisons. 

Yet, the Aerofit Pro came out a clear second in the head-to-head. There are still positives, but you can pick up better options.
