If you prioritize high build quality, superior overall sound quality, and features like active noise cancelling for a more immersive and noise-free experience, particularly during air travel or exercise, then Bang and Olufsen Beoplay EX would be the better choice, albeit at a premium price. However, if you're looking for good value for money and decent overall performance without breaking the bank, and if wireless charging is important for you, Earfun Air Pro 2 would be a solid choice. Keep in mind that the Earfun Air Pro 2 may not match the sound quality and premium build of the Bang and Olufsen Beoplay EX. If you don't require top-tier audio performance and are more cost-conscious, the Earfun could suffice for general use. Regardless of your choice, neither is well-suited for gaming or TV due to their relatively high latency. Give Feedback

"If you’ve wanted truly wireless headphones, but couldn’t pick them up because they sound terrible, these will be the headphones that win you over. If you’re the kind of person who would consider spending $400 on headphones, these are the right truly wireless headphones for you."

Peter Susic | September 2021
"There’s a lot to like about EarFun Air Pro 2. The best thing about them is the active noise cancellation, which works almost as well as the best true wireless earbuds out there. The audio quality is funky but enjoyable. Good dynamics and a wider soundstage save its presentation. Everyone, apart from the most diehard audiophiles, should be happy with it."
