Bluetooth 6.0 and IP55, and a spec table with no row for the driver size it advertises.

Anker's answer to the clip-on boom, at $39.98 against a $69.99 list price. It is the newest model in this comparison and it shows: Bluetooth 6.0, which nothing else here has, and a memory titanium clip that is meant to keep its shape.
The 12 mm driver is the headline, and the spec table does not have a row for it. Amazon's table gives «Audio Driver Type: Dynamic Driver» and then stops. The only place the size appears is inside a marketing bullet — which is where you find it on half the products on this site, and it is why our table is built from both.
Then there is the sensitivity: 38 dB in the table, against the bullet's claim of 86 dB maximum output. A 38 dB earphone would be roughly as loud as a library. One of those two numbers is wrong and the page does not say which.
IP55 is the reason to pick this over the TOZO for running: that is a rating you can point at, not the word «waterproof» with nothing behind it. Eight hours a charge is fair. Only 2,563 ratings so far, which is the trade-off for buying the newest thing.
Anything marked «—» is a figure the manufacturer doesn't publish. We don't fill those in by eye.

| The driver size is in the bullets and not in the table | 12 mm, says the third bullet. The table has a row for driver type and no row at all for driver size — the one measurement a buyer comparing clip-ons would look for. |
|---|---|
| Sensitivity: 38 db | The bullet claims 86 dB of maximum output. The table's sensitivity field says 38 dB, which would be close to inaudible. They cannot both be describing the same earphone. |
| Warranty Description: 18 | Eighteen of something. Anker normally warrants 18 months, so that is the likely reading — but the field does not say months, and we do not publish guesses. |
| Waterproof, or IP55 | The table says «Waterproof». The bullet says IP55, which is a jet of water and not immersion. We publish IP55. |
| «28H Playtime» is 8 hours | Eight in the earbuds, twenty more in the case. The table then files the 28 under battery life, and again under the case's battery life. |
| Frequency Response: 20 KHz | The row above already gives 20 Hz – 20,000 Hz. This one is a single number. |
A summary of the reviews published on Amazon.com as of 2026-09-08.
4.2 out of 5 from 2,563 ratings, a listing only months old. The praise is for the clip holding through workouts and for call clarity. The complaints are about thin bass, which is what an open-ear does, and a handful about the case hinge.

Open-ear with IP55 and 16 mm drivers for $27, against the $180 of the category leader.
45,738 ratings at $26.98 — and a page that counts the same forty hours twice.
IP67 and a two-year warranty — the most durable thing on this site, and it needs a socket every eight hours.
