EarFun Air True
Score: 71/100
JBL Endurance Race 2
Score: 73/100Rankings
The JBL Endurance Race 2 is a rugged true-wireless earbud built for athletes, offering IP68 protection, 48 h total battery life and ANC with Smart Ambient, while delivering a secure Twistlock fit and multi-point Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity. Minor drawbacks include overly sensitive touch controls when wet and a case that isn't fully waterproof.
The EarFun Air true-wireless earbuds deliver solid sound and robust IPX7 protection at a budget price, with convenient fast and wireless charging. They fall short on advanced codecs, ANC, and some ergonomic details.
