Huawei also announced its wireless Bluetooth earphones called Huawei Freelace. These
buds can either be used wirelessly or via the USB-C on the phone. The first time you plug them into
the phone, the HiPair feature negotiates with the phone and pairs with it. They
can then be charged or used for listening over the USB-C.
The Freelace come with 9.2mm dynamic drivers and are
designed with symmetrical controls on the left and right sides. The cable uses
nickel and titanium alloy mixed with silicone, which results in tangle-free
experience, increased durability and "position memory" - the cable
will keep its shape.
The buds are also IPX5 certified so they can
withstand sweat resistant and feature wind noise reduction making them ideal
for outdoor use during exercising. However, there's no actual noise-canceling,
just to make that clear. There are also magnetic snaps on both buds so you can
pause the music, end phone calls or disengage to accept a call from your phone.
In terms of battery life, the Freelace are quite
impressive - Huawei promises 12 hours of talk time or 18 hours of music
playback on a single charge. Huawei's fast charging tech means 5-minute charge
is enough for 4 hours of audio playback. The Huawei Freelace come in four
different colors to match the new Huawei P30 and P30 Pro colors.
