The Earfun Air Pro 2 and Skullcandy Dime 2 earbuds suit different needs. The Earfun Air Pro 2 offers active noise cancelling, making it a good pick for air travel or situations where you want to block out background sounds, yet its sound quality for gaming might not be ideal. On the other hand, the Skullcandy Dime 2 provides higher overall sound quality and comfort for a typically lower price, making it great for music enthusiasts who prioritize audio and value, but they do not have noise cancelling and may be less ideal for noisy environments. Both are sweatproof, suitable for exercise, and support AAC codec for better audio on Apple devices; however, only the Earfun Air Pro 2 has wireless charging. Give Feedback

Headphone Addict
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."

Jasper Lastoria | March 2022
"With the low price, it’s a low-risk investment. The Dime 2 is a decent set of backup buds for those times when you don’t want to risk your more upscale buds. If it weren’t for the lackluster battery life, I’d say everyone should have a pair as a spare for music."
