These $60 earbuds changed my mind about budget headphones
"For some time now, I -- like many audiophiles -- have looked down upon such earbuds. And although these aren't anywhere near the best earbuds I've experienced, the sound they produced was quite surprising. There was rich, clear bass, clean highs, and (mostly) mellow mids. For me, that's a winning combination out of the box. And, thanks to the EarFun app (and a firmware upgrade) the noise cancellation and connection stability were both much improved."
"I unpacked the EarFun Pro 3 earbuds, connected them to my Pixel 8 Pro, and played two recordings: Mahler's Symphony 2 and Rush's Power Windows, both of which sounded rich and powerful (surprising, given how demanding the Mahler is). After installing the EarFun app (, ), the out-of-date firmware was automatically detected and the upgrade proceeded. Once that was finished, I immediately tweaked the EQ to better match my taste."
The EarFun Pro 3 earbuds cost $60 and produce rich, clear bass, clean highs, and mostly mellow mids that create a satisfying out-of-the-box sound. The EarFun app and a firmware upgrade improve noise cancellation and Bluetooth connection stability. The app provides customization for EQ, Bluetooth audio quality, Game Mode, controls, and mic settings. Listening to Mahler's Symphony No. 2 and Rush's Power Windows reveals unexpectedly powerful, full sound. The app automatically detected and applied an out-of-date firmware update, and adjusting the EQ added punch and weight, though the EQ sliders require some getting used to.
