The Earfun Air Pro 2 is a more budget-friendly option compared to the Grado GT220, offering good value if price is a major concern. It offers active noise cancellation, which the GT220 lacks, making it better for noisy environments. However, the GT220 boasts a longer battery life and a more premium build quality. If you prefer earbuds without a stem, the GT220 might appeal more to you aesthetically. Both choices have integrated microphones. Choose the Earfun Air Pro 2 if you want noise cancellation and a lower cost, or the GT220 for longer battery life and premium build at a higher price. Give Feedback

"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."
"With its superb and functional interface and its highly satisfying imaging, Grado has shown a new talent for delivering a solid true wireless system, and with future improvements, has the potential to really be one of the best."
