Professional reviewers commend the P40i for its impressive battery longevity, innovative phone-stand case, and effective ANC that reaches -21 dB attenuation, while also praising the customizable HearID EQ.

Professional reviewers commend the EarFun Air Pro series for delivering strong bass, balanced sound, and effective adaptive ANC at a very competitive price, highlighting its modern codec support and stable fit. However, they note the bulkier ergonomics, finicky touch controls, rolled‑off treble, and average call quality as drawbacks that keep it from challenging higher‑end competitors.
Everyday users appreciate the durability, long battery life, and value‑driven ANC that handles low‑frequency rumble well, making the earbuds a solid choice for commuting and workouts. Recurring complaints focus on the microphone’s performance in noisy settings, occasional touch‑control lag, and a generic, bulky design.
