The case is made of plastic and features an LED dot light on the front and a type-C connector on the back; it also supports wireless charging, which is a plus given that this function is typically reserved for high-end wireless earbuds.

The EarFun Free 2 package includes extra eartips, a USB Type-C cable, and a user guide. It's a bit of a challenge to get the earbuds out of the case.

Sound Quality
The EarFun Free 2 uses Bluetooth 5.2 for wireless connection and it has a solid connection and we did not experience any dropped connections. With TrueWireless mirroring technology were able to listen to audio and make calls while wearing either one or both earbuds which is a cool feature.

EarFun Free 2

Like most wireless buds, with its small-scale size, the soundstage it produces is big but not wide, with a slightly trimmed sense. The Free 2 earbuds are reasonably crisp and well balanced across the frequency spectrum and leave a good impression. Regardless of the style of music, it delivers a nice performance that is upbeat, energizing, and positive. The beat isn't perfect, but these earphones are fun to use.

Battery Life
The EarFun Free 2 is packed with 50mAh each earbud and a 400mAh for the charging case. The earbuds have 7 hrs of playtime on a single charge and 30 hours of use with the charging case.

Charging the earbuds takes about 1.5 hours and around 2 hours for the case via USB-C while using the wireless charging takes about 3.5 hours to charge which is not bad. A 10-minutes wired charging can give a 2 hours playtime.

Pros
Lightweight and comfortable
Noise-cancelling
Wireless charging

Cons
Ambient sound could be improved
Average volume level
No app companion
