EarFun Free review: EarFun Free wireless earbuds are almost too good to be true

id=”cnetReview” section=”rvwBody” data-component=”indepthReview”> The folks from EarFun, which includes some former employees from budget audio favorite Tribit, have been trying to get me to review the startup’s new Free true wireless earbuds for a while. Unfortunately, when I received my first review sample, I could only pair one of the earbuds to my phone — the buds wouldn’t join up into a stereo pair. But I’ve had much better luck with a second review sample, and after using it for a few weeks, 리니지프리서버구축 have determined that it’s a notch up from the gaggle of no-name generic true wireless buds on Amazon and a bargain at less than $50 (and sometimes less than $40).

Do they sound fantastic? No, but they sound surprisingly good for their low price. They don’t have quite the clarity of higher-end true wireless earbuds that cost $150 or more, but they do have plump bass and enough detail to avoid sounding dull. Wearing them for an hour straight, I didn’t experience any listening fatigue, which is a big win when you’re listening to budget-priced buds. They also play plenty loud (for 리니지프리서버홍보 me anyway).

But when I used the largest of the included tips I didn’t have a problem getting a comfortable, secure fit with a tight seal. I was able to run with them in my ears (they’re pretty lightweight and not too bulky). This type of fit, however — where the ear tip dips into your ear canal — isn’t for everyone. It’s a noise-isolating design so you get some passive noise cancelation, 리니지프리서버팩 which helps when you’re walking around a noisy city like New York.
