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. Many reviewers note they outperform far more expensive competitors like AirPods Pro and Sony XM4s, especially after customizing the EQ via the app. A few minor issues include occasional fit adjustments and a quirk with single-bud Bluetooth connectivity, but overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive.
Pros
- Excellent sound quality with LDAC and aptX Lossless
- 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
Technics EAH-AZ80
The Technics EAH-AZ10 earbuds receive overwhelmingly positive feedback for their exceptional sound quality, featuring clear separation, wide soundstage, and natural tuning that rivals higher-end models. Users praise the comfortable and secure fit, effective noise cancellation that doesn't muddy the audio, and impressive battery life lasting up to 7 hours. However, a few critical reviews highlight poor touch controls that are unresponsive, and one user experienced a significant volume imbalance after 1.5 years, with the company offering only a 10% discount on a replacement rather than a fix. Overall, these are highly recommended for audiophiles and daily use, but potential buyers should be aware of possible durability and control issues.
Pros
- Exceptional sound quality with clear separation
- Comfortable and secure fit
- Effective noise cancellation without audio degradation
- Impressive battery life up to 7 hours
- Great call quality
Cons
- Unresponsive touch controls
- Volume imbalance after extended use
- Poor customer service for defects
- Bulky design for some users
- ANC not sufficient in very loud environments
