What Buyers Say
EarFun Air Pro 4
The EarFun Air Pro 4 earbuds deliver exceptional value, with users praising their high-end sound quality, effective noise cancellation, and robust battery life.

Pros

- Effective active noise cancellation
- Long battery life (11 hours per charge)
- Great value for money
- Comfortable and secure fit
Cons
- Single-bud Bluetooth connectivity quirk
- Occasional fit adjustments needed
- LDAC disables multipoint pairing
- Le Audio not working for some users
Soundcore Liberty D1200
The Soundcore Liberty Buds are semi-open earbuds that prioritize comfort and awareness of surroundings. Sound quality is widely praised as excellent, especially after EQ, and the ANC is considered surprisingly good for the open design, though not as effective as in-ear competitors. The biggest point of contention is the fit: while some users find them secure and comfortable for all-day wear, others report that the earbuds feel loose and fall out with minimal movement, despite trying different ear fins. Additional minor complaints include the lack of wireless charging and an occasional weak sound output that may require a firmware fix.
Pros
- Excellent sound quality with good bass
- Surprisingly effective ANC for open design
- Very comfortable for all-day wear
- Secure fit for many users
- Great app with customizable controls
Cons
- Fit is inconsistent and may be loose
- Earbuds may fall out with movement
- ANC less effective than in-ear competitors
- No wireless charging
- Occasional weak sound output
