We saw a ton of cool new products at CES 2026, but not all of them made the cut when it came to deciding what was best of show. One of those products that we nevertheless think holds promise is Anker’s AeroFit Pro 2, which are wireless earbuds that can double as open-ear headphones. You pick the mode you want: wedge them into your ears for better sound enhanced by active noise cancellation, or let them pump out sound near your ears so that you can keep stay tuned into your surroundings. By using the code WSTDA3875US at Anker’s site, you can knock $30 off their $179.99 price.

The AeroFit Pro 2 have an ear hook design, which could make them a great fit for working out. They contain sensors that can determine how you’re wearing them and adjust features accordingly. They can recalibrate the EQ, and in earbud mode, turn on active noise cancellation by way of their six built-in microphones. However, as our announcement post mentioned, I wouldn’t expect ANC that can rival the category’s flagship products from Bose, Sony, or Apple.
Other Verge-approved deals for your consideration
- Donkey Kong Bananza is one of 2025’s best video games and one of the Switch 2’s best titles. Discounts on the game are rare, so if you’ve been considering it, consider hopping over to Walmart or Amazon where you can buy the physical cartridge version for $62.99 instead of $70. Bananza was made by the same development team within Nintendo responsible for Super Mario Odyssey, which should be all the convincing you need to play this fun, surprisingly lengthy 3D platformer.

- Most of the time, the only light that I have going in my office is the Elgato Key Light. It’s bright, its color temperature can be easily dialed in through the mobile or desktop app, and it attaches conveniently to my desk. I use it as bias lighting, aimed diagonally up towards my ceiling to diffuse the lighting evenly in the corner that I work in. If you need a powerful light to illuminate you during video calls, streams, or for any other reason, you can save 23 percent on the Key Light at Amazon, where it costs $138.99 (originally $199.99, but usually around $180 outside of a deal). B&H Photo has it for a dollar more.
- I see so many disposable hand warmers littered on the streets and sidewalks in NYC during the winter. More people should consider rechargeable hand warmers, like this twin-pack that costs $15.99 (originally $29.99) at Amazon and recharges via USB-C. Once fully charged, each warmer can provide warmth for four to eight hours, depending on the heat setting you choose. The two warmers snap together magnetically when you aren’t using them, and they each have a silicone wrist strap, so they won’t easily go flying out of your pocket.
