The EarFun Air Pro 2 True Wireless 2021 are the next generation of the EarFun Air Pro True Wireless. Compared to their predecessor, their touch-sensitive controls offer more functionality, and their carrying case holds more extra charges. They maintain a fairly neutral sound profile with a touch of extra thump, body, and boom. However, even though they have active noise cancelling (ANC) and can block out a decent amount of ambient noise around you, their performance in this regard falls short of that of the previous gen. They also lack a companion app and sound customization features to help you adjust their sound, though the 2023 variant of this model is compatible.
Our Verdict
The EarFun Air Pro 2 are good for neutral sound. They have a fairly neutral sound profile with a touch of extra bass to add slight thump, rumble, and boom to your tracks. The mid-range is pretty flat, although it's a bit underemphasized, which can nudge vocals and lead instruments to the back of your mixes. However, they don't have an EQ to help adjust their sound to your liking. They also have a bad passive soundstage that doesn't seem very immersive, although that's to be expected from in-ear headphones.
- Decently comfortable and stable fit.
- Very consistent audio delivery.
- Bad passive soundstage.
The EarFun Air Pro 2 are good for commute and travel. They have a decently comfortable, lightweight fit and can easily fit into most pockets or bags without too much issue. They also feel well-built and don't leak too much audio at high volumes. They have a continuous battery life of under six hours too, which should be enough to get you through your daily commute. However, even though they have active noise cancelling, they struggle to block out the low rumble of bus and plane engines.
- Decently comfortable and stable fit.
- Satisfactory noise isolation performance.
- Good touch-sensitive controls.
- No EQ.
The EarFun Air Pro 2 are great for sports and fitness. Thanks to their truly wireless design, they're small, lightweight, and can easily fit into most pockets or bags when you're on the go. They also have a decently comfortable and stable fit, although they could pop out of your ears if you're talking. That said, they're well-built and are certified IPX5 for protection against water contact such as rain.
- Decently comfortable and stable fit.
- Good touch-sensitive controls.
- No EQ.
The EarFun Air Pro 2 are decent for office use. They're decently comfortable, lightweight, and well-built. They can also block out office chatter around you, and although they leak a small amount of audio at high volumes, that shouldn't disturb others around you too much. However, their under six hours of continuous battery life may mean that you need to charge them throughout your workday, and they don't support multi-device pairing.
- Decently comfortable and stable fit.
- Satisfactory noise isolation performance.
- No multi-device pairing.
The EarFun Air Pro 2 are compatible with Bluetooth-enabled PCs. However, their latency is likely too high to be suitable for gaming.
The EarFun Air Pro 2 are Bluetooth-only headphones, and you can't use them wired.
The EarFun Air Pro 2 are fair for phone calls. These in-ears have an integrated mic, and when your voice is recorded, you sound natural, although lacking in body and detail. However, the mic has some troubles separating your voice from ambient noise around you, so you may be drowned out if you're taking a call from a busy street. On the upside, these buds have an ANC system that can block out a decent amount of ambient noise so that you can better hear your call.
- Satisfactory noise isolation performance.
- Alright overall mic performance.
- No EQ.
- No multi-device pairing.

Differences Between Sizes And Variants
The EarFun Air Pro 2 come in one color variant: Black, and you can see our model's label here. That said, these headphones also come in a 2021 and 2023 model, both of which have different features. We tested the 2021 model, but only the 2023 model supports the EarFun Audio app and game mode. In these photos with the 2023 model on the left and the 2021 model on the right, the carrying case and ear tips are slightly different too. However, keep in mind that the 2023 model isn't part of our inventory; they belong to one of our employees.
If you come across another variant of these headphones, please let u know in the forums and we'll update our review.
