About
What it is.
Air Pro 4 sits in EarFun's Air Pro series of true wireless in-ear headphones, positioned as the brand's flagship model. It pairs Hi-Res Audio with aptX Lossless and Snapdragon Sound over Bluetooth 5.4, targeting listeners who care about codec fidelity rather than just casual streaming. QuietSmart 3.0 adaptive ANC handles noise suppression, while Auracast LE Audio support allows broadcast-style listening across compatible devices.
Built with an in-ear form factor, charging case, and onboard microphone, it's suited to commuting, office use, and sports alike. Color options include Black, White, Purple, Royal Blue, and Glossy White, giving it range as both a daily-driver earbud and a more style-conscious accessory.
The verdict
The EarFun Air Pro 4 delivers genuinely strong sound and noise cancellation at $68–$90, backed by consistently high buyer satisfaction (4.9/5 from 2,502 ratings), though the plastic construction feels insubstantial despite solid real-world performance.

What owners single out
Buyers' concern about plastic build quality aligns with critics noting the earbuds lack premium materials despite excellent performance.
In their words
“Sound quality:superb!! and awesome! Noise cancelling:really good at this price! I lost my previous Earfun Air Pro 4 a few days ago and I was really upset about it 😭 So I decided to purchase the same one for the 2nd time. The price is a bit cheaper than the previous one, maybe because now Earfun already has the Air Pro 4+ but it's a bit expensive I need to add another Rm 80 to Rm 100 more. For my ”

“Performance:Hell worth for the price! Multiple configurations by far exceeded my expectations! The reviewers were right. Some QA functions makes a lot of sense. Even though, the build quality feels like plastic, cheap... The audio quality is superb for only under RM300!! I would recommend buying this to a friend if I have to.”
