CES 2026: Anker Unveils Soundcore Sleep Earbuds, Eufy HomeKit Smart Lock and More

[MacRumors]

Anker is showing off a long list of new products under its Eufy and Soundcore brands at CES 2026, ranging from new camera options to new sleep buds.

The $300 Matter-enabled Smart Lock E40 is able to integrate with Apple Home, and it offers 3D face recognition for unlocking a door with a facial scan. It includes a 2K HD camera so it doubles as a security camera complete with night vision and wide-angle coverage. There is a 15,000 mAh main battery in the E40, and an 800 mAh backup battery.

The $280 Video Doorbell S4 is equipped with OmniTrack technology to detect and track people, adjusting the zoom to keep visitors in frame as they approach the door. It features a 180-degree horizontal and vertical field-of-view for panoramic surveillance, and the 3K camera allows for monitoring from up to 26 feet away.

Eufy's $200 Solar Wall Light Cam S4 offers 4K color night vision and an f/1.6 lens for clear images even in low light. The camera can be adjusted vertically by up to 45 degrees to eliminate blind spots, and it can be charged with a 2W solar panel or a 10,000 mAh battery. Multiple lighting modes are available, including daily lighting, security lighting, and festive lighting.

Under the Soundcore brand, Anker is debuting the $180 AeroFit 2 Pro, which it describes as dual-form earbuds that allow for open-ear listening and Active Noise Cancellation in one product. The earbuds are designed to cut down on noise in loud environments while still allowing users to remain aware of their surroundings.

The $200 Soundcore Sleep A30 Special earbuds feature a triple noise reduction system that blends Active Noise Cancellation, passive isolation, and adaptive snore masking to cut down on sleep interruptions. Anker is partnering with Calm to make Calm Sleep Stories available through the Soundcore app.

Anker's AeroFit 2 Pro and Sleep A30 Special earbuds are available from the Soundcore website starting today.

The Smart Lock E40 is launching in the first quarter of 2026 at Home Depot, while the Video Doorbell S4 and the Solar Wall Light Cam S4 will be available from the Eufy website in the first quarter.

Will this camera feature the Eufy special feature that allows strangers to see your video feed using VLC media player?

The sleep A30 have been out for almost a year now....what am I missigng here? Is this an advert?

So there is nothing "sleep-friendly" about the Sleep A30 Special earbuds? Same bad-for-your-health EMF and bluetooth blasting your brain all night? No thanks.

I was wondering this too. On their website it is mentioned under Sleep A30 Special / Sleep A30. Did they just add "Special" to the name?

I don't want my doorbell in my door lock. That seems like a pain to have to charge it all the time. I have a lot of foot traffic through the front door with my kids coming and going, and then on top of that it also needs to mechanically control the door. My current lock has 4xAA that I replace about once per year.

What I really want is a simplified mechanism. I just want it to look like a small round mechanism on the outside that has a tap pad for Apple Home Key. That's it. I don't want a backup key, I don't need a keypad but I would accept that if required. I just want to be able to share my Home Key with a friend for when we're out of town, and just have the door unlock when we approach with an iPhone or Apple Watch to tap it.

Why don't I want a physical key? Because every single smart lock that I've seen tested can be easily picked in seconds by an expert. They're often pretty crappy four pin locks that often don't even have basic security pins, much less spool or serrated pins. I've considered filling mine with glue but I figure that would bind up the mechanism. I don't need a backup key. I have a garage door where I can enter a code if the battery dies. And the chances of the front door lock dying at the same time as a power outage for the garage door are extremely unlikely. And even so, I have a key to my workshop door on the rear of my house, which is a much higher quality deadbolt lock. I probably just need to research the best night locks.

well....i suppose you can say that about any in-ear buds. You can however turn bluetooth off and have it play in local sound mode only.

I don't want any of the extra noise cancelling - I just want them to be small enough that I don't feel them sleeping on my side!

Absolutely nothing "bad for your health" about either.

The Special lasts an hour longer

All these accessories are quite costly. The solar camera seems to be a nice one. Not interested in the earbuds as I am very satisfied with my AirPods.

Planning on moving from Arlo to Eufy later this year after getting a $227 subscription fee from Arlo that seems to only work about 50-75% of the time.
Did not know they were owned by Anker.

Apple disagrees. Read the fine print, buddy boy.
