Belkin’s New Noise-Cancelling Headphones Are Just $60

Belkin has just revealed some updates to its affordable SoundForm wireless headphone line, adding two new closed-back and on-ear models, as well as two sets of eartips. Both earbuds are available now, with the new on-ear models expected later this year.

The most notable of these is the $59.99 SoundForm Isolate, a pair of wireless, on-ear headphones that feature active noise cancellation (ANC) and a “Hear-Thru” transparency mode. They also have a built-in, looping “Relaxation” soundtrack with ambient noise.

In addition to those features, the $39.99 Isolate and SoundForm Surround share the same specs, like 40mm drivers, touch controls, and Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity with support for connecting to two devices at once. Both charge via USB-C and also have 3.5mm audio jacks, and Belkin says they’ll last up to 60 hours on a single charge (or 40 hours for the Isolate with ANC turned on).

Finally, Belkin announced two pairs of in-ear headphones: the SoundForm Rhythm for $34.99 and the SoundForm ClearFit for $59.99. The two pairs differ in terms of form factor — the Rhythm earbuds use a design similar to the AirPods Pro with in-ear tips, while the IPx5 sweat-resistant ClearFit earbuds are sporty, open-ear devices with clips that fit over your ears.

You won’t find any special audio features like noise cancellation here, though; these are very basic wireless earbuds. That said, Belkin claims they’ll last eight hours on a single charge, which is no small feat, and the charging case lasts another 20 hours (or 18 with the ClearFit). Both are available now.
