INTRODUCTION

   One of the things COVID-19 changed for me (and most people certainly) was that i completely stopped using public transportation, primarily the bus and metro. Now i never used them that much to begin with but i kind of had to whenever i needed to pick up small devices (primarily sample boxes) from pickup areas where i just couldn't go with my car (lack of parking). So instead i begun walking many kilometres quite often (minimum 4km, maximum 9km) which as most of you can imagine takes quite a bit of time. Well, i can't think of a better way to test both wired and wireless earphones and headphones than when walking next to cars honking, people talking and everything else one can come across while on foot, can you? One of the TWS (true wireless stereo) earphones I've been testing that way for the past month are no other than the very popular EarFun Air Pro.

   EarFun was established in 2018 by a collective of experienced industrial designers, acoustic engineers, and music enthusiasts who share the common goal of creating next-generation wireless audio devices. The EarFun team is driven by a passion for music and a commitment to delivering solutions that use the latest technologies to improve the audio experience. With two CES Innovation Awards honorees and an iF Design Award in 2020, EarFun is the most awarded new audio brand.

       For the Air Pro True Wireless Stereo Earbuds (currently available in black & white colors) EarFun has paired the BES2300YP programmable Bluetooth v5.0 Audio SoC by BES Technic with two 10mm composite dynamic drivers (for improved bass and clear treble) and 6 noise-cancelling microphones (filter out up to 90% of ambient noise - always according to EarFun). The EarFun Air Pro are also IPX5 certified which means you can use them even while in the rain or while working out (water and sweat resistant, not to be submerged into water however - you'd need IPX7 for that) and also feature touch/tap controls, master feature (either earbud can act as primary), two 60mAh rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (can keep the earbuds going for up to 9 hours - 7 hours with ANC on) and as expected the bundle also includes a small storage/carrying box (closes magnetically) which also doubles as a recharging case thanks to an internal 500mAh lithium-ion rechargeable battery (can provide almost 23 extra hours of playback time - 18 hours with ANC on).
