Dubai, UAE, August 3rd 2022 – Wireless earphones have come a long way in the past decade. It has come to the point that it doesn’t make sense to use wired earphones for everyday things like answering calls or listening to music. The sound quality of newer wireless earphones is dipping its toes into audiophile territories. Huawei Consumer BG held a Flagship Products Summer Launch Event in Dubai last week; showcasing a new lineup of flagship devices including the utmost true sound earbuds with pure voice call – HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2. It packs all the features that you would ever want in a pair of TWS earbuds, such as amazing sound quality, impressive active noise cancellation, crystal clear voice clarity, and more. Here’s a closer look at HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2.
Experience high-fidelity sound wirelessly
HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 boasts anUltra-hearing dual-driver true sound system, which consists of two built-in powerful sound units and, coupled with the digital dual-crossover technology, delivers the most powerful sound quality. These are the first TWS earbuds to use a planar diaphragm that is only typically found in high-end earbuds. This helps HUAWEI FreeBuds 2 achieve a most precise lightweight flat voice coil, with treble and overtone above 9KHz being bright and sharp. For medium and low frequencies, these earbuds use a four-magnet large dynamic drive to bring out powerful bass. The bass goes effectively down to 14Hz, and treble goes up to 48Khz[1], exceeding the frequencies beyond the range of perception of human ears.
HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 is the result of a collaboration between Huawei and Devialet — a high-end acoustic technology brand from France. It combines state-of-the-art technologies in acoustic engineering with unrivalled acoustic innovations to enable more people to experience high-fidelity sound with new technologies. Both brands have worked together to fine-tune the audio experience on HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2, creating a surging bass with detailed and pure sound quality.
Drown out the noise
For Active Noise Cancellation, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 adopts three highly-sensitive microphones to pick up ambient sounds and an improved noise cancellation algorithm. The result is a 15% boost in the average ANC depth compared to the previous HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro. The Intelligent Dynamic ANC 2.0 is also a game changer. This allows the earbuds to accurately identify and judge the external sound field environment and helps select the best noise-cancelling mode for comfortable listening. Even on flights, the Intelligent Dynamic ANC 2.0 eliminates the roaring aircraft engine noises, enabling users to have a quiet, peaceful journey with the exclusive aircraft noise cancellation curve.[2]
Clear voice calls everywhere, all the time
The HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 new Pure Voice call noise cancellation tech uses a 4-Mic hybrid Call Noise Cancellation system combined with the Huawei-exclusive deep neural network (DNN) noise cancellation algorithm to accurately pick up human voices while filtering out noise. Users will be able to hear voices on calls clearly even in busy outdoor environments[3].
Long-lasting battery for more excitement
HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 is small but powerful, equipped with long battery life. With the ANC on, you can enjoy a quiet experience of up to 4 hours of playback time and a total of 18 hours with the case. With the ANC off, you can enjoy 6.5 hours of listening and a total of 30 hours with the case[4]. HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 supports both Huawei wired and wireless fast charging technologies. The case supports wired 2C fast charging, while the headset supports 3C fast charging. With just 10 minutes of charging, the headset can have up to 2.5 hours of music playback. If you are on the go, the HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 also supports reverse charging on the earbuds’ case with your phone or tablet.[5]
Redefining the audio connection experience to bring more convenience
In this current digital age, almost everyone owns more than one device. It would be a hassle to connect the earbuds to multiple devices if that would require to be set up every time you want to switch devices. HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 makes it easy by supporting connections with up to two devices at the same time and automatic switching between devices when receiving calls[6]. When the HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 is connected to two smartphones, users can enjoy music with one phone and take incoming calls with the other phone. The music will automatically pause when there is a call. When the user has picked up the call, and if there is an incoming call on their other phone, the user will receive a notification. It supports dual connection with Huawei all-scenario devices, including smartphones, tablets, PCs and watches, and with Android, iOS and Windows smart systems.
The “Audio Connection Centre” function of FreeBuds Pro 2 allows you to see up to 10 devices recently connected with the earbuds. With this, you can easily switch between multiple devices with just one click. It can also be automatically detected on the Super Device screen of Huawei PCs, tablets, phones, and easily connected with a simple drag and drop.
