soundcore is doubling down on the open-ear trend in the Philippines, rolling out the C50i clip-on earbuds in a bold new purple finish while positioning the premium soundcore AeroClip as the step-up option for listeners who want more power from their wearable audio.
The C50i‘s open-ring clip-on design sits on the cartilage rather than inside the ear canal, giving it the look of a wearable accessory as much as a pair of earbuds. Built with titanium wire and flexible TPU, the design spreads the weight across the ear, easing the pressure that often comes with traditional in-ear buds. The new purple colorway leans into that “wearable audio meets fashion” vibe.
The open-ear approach also keeps you aware of the world around you—handy for commuters, students, or anyone navigating busy streets while streaming music or podcasts.
Inside, a custom 12mm driver delivers Hi-Res Wireless audio with LDAC support, while AI-assisted tuning boosts low frequencies on the fly for fuller sound. A directional sound port helps limit leakage, keeping your listening more private.
A custom 12mm driver with Hi-Res Wireless support and LDAC streaming promises richer, more detailed sound than you’d expect from open-ear buds.
Add AI-enhanced bass tuning, dual mics with noise reduction for calls, and Bluetooth multipoint for juggling a laptop and phone, and the C50i starts to feel like a surprisingly complete everyday pair.
Battery life is rated at seven hours per charge, stretching to 28 hours with the case, and there’s IP55 protection for sweat-heavy commutes or gym sessions.
If you want to level up, check out the AeroClip, which keeps the same open-ear philosophy but adds a 12mm titanium-coated driver, smarter AI bass processing, and more advanced call performance with four beamforming microphones.
It also lasts longer, with up to 32 hours total playtime, and supports full-surface tap controls for music, calls, and voice assistants.
Additional features of the soundcore AeroClip include IPX4 water resistance and multipoint connection allowing two devices to pair simultaneously.
The soundcore C50i in Purple is now available through official soundcore stores on Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop for P3,295. Black and white colorways are also available.
Meanwhile, the soundcore AeroClip is available in Midnight, Glacier Blue, Champagne Mist, and Rosy Brown through the same official stores for P6,995.
