EarFun - Free Pro 2

I'm using the "ear fun free pro 2" just because the don't fall while I do exercises.

I have the second option. They fit VERY well while I run, but the sound quality isn't great. Wife has both the X10 and X20 and likes the X20 a lot more. Says the sound is noticeably better (and she doesn't have an ear for that usually), and the ANC is nice. Check out the Earfun Free Pro line. I have the 2 and they are my favorite mid-budget earbuds for running. They sound great, have good ANC, and fit in my ear for the \~ 30 miles a week I run. I'm not sure if they sell the 2 anymore but I see the 3 on sale a lot for $50 or less USD.

The ANC is pretty good on the Free Pro 2 (not the 2s), but I haven't tried the Free Pro 3 so I'm not sure. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the Free Pro 2 anywhere now, so they may not sell it anymore. They're also ~$50 so you're not gonna get amazing ANC for that price.

!thanks Didn't really work out for sound or comfort and I had to return them after one bud grew uncomfortably hot and started giving funny battery warnings, but you did help me further narrow down what I want and need design-wise. :)

Earfun free pro2. Very comfortable. Not neutral sounding until you apply Oluv's EQ. Then they transform into the best sounding pair of buds without an equal

I'm glad at least they were a good jumping off point. But what you describe is not my experience at all. Super comfortable and sound for two years until I unfortunately forgot them in a pair of jeans that went into the washing machine

Honestly, I don't use them now. I went back to the free pro 2. I just find the free pro 2 better as they are tiny and I can sleep with them in. Tech and settings and sound quality wise the 4's are the better bud for sure though.

One of earfuns earlier and cheaper models. Doesn't have app support but you can use airreps app to change sound profiles etc. Basically same hardware as earpod knockoffs but fit right into your ear. Like nearly the whole bud, no stem.

I’m quite happy with my Earfun free Pro 2 so just get the new Earfun

Earphone Free Pro 2. I am a petite woman with small ears who struggled to find buds that fit and STAYED in. These have a little tab that tucks up under your ear and keeps the buds in place.

Not necessarily. Like all brands they probably make duds. Dud buds lol. I don't have airpods nor do I have any of Sony's but I have earfun free pro 2 & free pro 3 and there's an option with the newer ones to prioritise "stable connection first" that's why I asked about yours if you had an option to do that or change codecs in your phone settings. I guess that doesn't apply to the vita though. Dang The newer ones are worse for losing connection and stuttering but that option probably improves it by a lot. I should test it. My other modern headphones (OneOdio A10 focus - these are the ones that have to go into pairing mode with the vita or they switch off) also break up and stutter when I change rooms. Some distance but not as much as I'd like. I can't go to pee or grab a drink leaving the vita in my room without them disconnecting. Out and about with devices on my person there's no issues at all with any of them though. The older earfun free pro 2 with the SBC codec don't break up or stutter. You can go quite far before they disconnect. So I reckon it's the aptx codec that's the issue. Higher quality sound at the cost of decreased distance. Worse again if you put them into gaming mode.

I always have trouble running with earbuds because of the bounce. I use earfun free pro 2s. People have different ear shapes though so I’m not sure if that’s a problem you would face.

Try Earfun. I like the Earfun Free Pro (2 or 3) because they're comfortable and not big. The noise cancelling is not "the best in the world" but still *very* good.
