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.

AI summary of 5 reviews · as of Aug 2026

Reviewers agree these earbuds punch well above their price bracket with strong ANC, rich dual-driver sound, and a feature set rarely seen at this level.

What they praise

  • Dual-driver setup (dynamic plus balanced armature) delivers detailed, punchy, well-balanced sound
  • Noise cancellation is strong and consistent for the price, handling engine and traffic noise well
  • Long battery life with fast charging and wireless charging case
  • Feature-rich companion app with extensive EQ customization, multipoint, and low-latency gaming mode
  • Comfortable, secure stem-style fit suited to long wear and workouts

What they knock

  • Design is very similar to prior models, offering little visual or ergonomic innovation
  • Sound signature shifts slightly with ANC on versus off, with less bass when ANC is disabled
  • Noise cancellation doesn't match top premium competitors, though it is close for the money
  • Touch controls occasionally miss taps and must be reconfigured through the app

Owner signals?

Not the launch-day reviewers — the owners still posting months later, on the faults that keep recurring.

ANC performance falls short of expectations

Moderate severity

Multiple owners report that ANC capability lags behind what they expected, with one review explicitly noting it "could get better"—a limitation that becomes apparent only after extended use and comparison.
