The Earfun Air 2 priced at $50 having used them for a week, I’ve been enjoying music with these earbuds. They feature Qualcomm aptX with 10mm drivers, LDAC, and Snapdragon Sound support. Initially, I found them to be worth the budget-friendly price.
Design and Build
The Air 2 case features a solid and slim design. It is prone to catching a little dust and scratches. The hinge quality is commendable, allowing for easy one-handed opening and automatic closure when pushed back.
On the front, there is an LED indicator that shows the battery charging status. At the bottom of the case, you’ll find a USB-C port for charging and connectivity. On the back side of the hinge, the word “EarFun” is written in silver, cleverly concealing the joint of the hinge mechanism.
The Earfun Air 2 Buds are impressively built—strong, light, and slightly taller than the Air Pro 3. They fit comfortably in my ears, allowing me to wear them for hours without any discomfort. The earbuds come with three different-size silicon tips for a perfect fit.
Overall, both the case and buds feel premium and lightweight. They are IPX7 waterproof and sweat-resistant, ensuring durability. These features make them a high-quality yet affordable option in the earbud market.
Setup and Connection
The Earfun Air 2 boasts Bluetooth 5.3. To set it up, simply open the case and remove the earbuds. Each bud has an LED above the touch area indicating its status; a blinking blue light means it’s on. Next, turn on Bluetooth on your Android or iOS device and select “Earfun Air 2” for pairing. Once connected, you can start enjoying your music.
The earbuds also support multipoint connection, allowing simultaneous connections to devices like smartphones, PCs, or other multimedia devices. This feature is particularly useful for multitasking; for instance, I can listen to music on my smartphone while watching videos on my laptop. When I start playing a video, it automatically pauses the music on my smartphone and switches to the video—a highly convenient productivity feature.
However, one notable issue I encountered is unstable connectivity. While listening to music, I noticed occasional interruptions and stuttering despite being close to my device. This seems to be a recurring problem, possibly due to an early bug. Hopefully, the next update will address and resolve this issue.
App and Controls
You have Earfun App support, where you can see the battery status of the case and each buds, game mode, equalizer, and control customization options and settings. And you’re able to download and update new firmware, toggle between LDAC and stable connection, call mic setup, voice wizard settings, and find my headphones. As far as the equalizer goes, you can go with presets like Rock, Pop, Base Boost, Treble Boost, and others, and you can simply custom equalize as you love.
When it comes to controls, it has a tap function, and when put first, I love the controls because they work responsibly without any delays. And these controls are set by default, and you can customize them to your preference in the app.
| Taps | Left | Right |
|---|---|---|
| Tap Once | Volume down | Volume up |
| Tap Twice | Pause/play | Pause/Play |
| Tap Triple | Previous track | Next track |
| Long Press | voice Assistant | Voice Assistant |
Audio Quality
Air 2 has 10mm wool composite dynamic audio drivers with LDAC, is also Hi-Res Audio certified, and features Snapdragon sound with Qualcomm aptX adaptive. Beside these features As I tested it for a week, the audio sound quality is amazing at the budget price point; it sounds clear and crisp with good bass and treble. You get 55ms of low-latency game mode, so gaming is also good with it. One thing to notice is that it’s audio is crisper and lighter, not deep, but for music, it’s audio is really good. Don’t expect the Air Pro 3 or the Huawei Freebuds Pro 3.
It’s not has ANC (active noise cancellation), which is a big downside, but when you choose the perfect size of silicon tips that perfectly fit your ear, it can surprise you and cut off a high amount of noise. And I tested it in the Indian road traffic and works well, not letting the noises reach my ears to disturb my music enjoyment.
As far the call quality it features 4 microphone with noise cancellation technology, and i tested it sound clear and loud and the noise cancellation work pretty good. Overall the Audio quality with LDAC and Qualcomm aptX support at price of budget earbuds.
Battery Life
The Earfun claims 9 hours of battery playtime with buds and 31 hours with case. I tested and got 3 hours of playtime from 100% to 70% on the EarfunAir 2. It’s battery performance is good, and the pricy earbuds like the Galaxy Buds Pro and Pixel Buds Pro all provide the same battery performance. And when you are fully drained, it can be charged by using a USB-C port, and it also supports wireless charging, so for charging you don’t need to worry.
My Thought: Is it Worth it?
So, What do i think about it and is it the Eafun Air 2 really worth?
Yes, It’s slimmer and lighter, IPX 7 waterproof, Qualcomm aptX High-Res audio with LDAC support sounds really amazing, crisp and clear, and with all these features at a budget price of $50. It does have downsides like no ANC support and connection issues, but the main thing is that the ANC connection issue can be resolved in the next update. If the ANC does not matter to you a lot, I would say go for it; it really provides out of price features and performance.
Earfun Air 2 features Qualcomm aptX High-Res audio with LDAC support sounds really amazing, crisp and clear at a budget price of $50. It does have downsides like no ANC support and connection issues. If the ANC does not matter then highly recommended.
