The Earfun Air Pro 2 excels in sound quality and noise isolation, which makes it a good option for busy environments and air travel. It also features active noise canceling. However, it's less suitable for exercise due to its stem design. The Shokz OpenMove, with its bone conduction technology, offers an open design that allows for situational awareness, making it safer for outdoor activities and exercise. Its microphone quality is superior, good for calls and meetings. Both provide wireless convenience, but the Earfun has better battery life. Neither is optimal for gaming or TV due to latency issues.

"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."
"The Shokz OpenMove are a bit more affordable than the company's other bone conduction headphones, making them a more appealing option for athletes on a budget. These headphones support premium features like multipoint connectivity and a durable build, but you lose other niceties like fast charging and a long battery life. Still, for less than $80, these are nice bone conduction headphones that will keep you safe when exercising."
