Today Huawei announced its next generation flagship true wireless earbuds - the FreeBuds Pro 2. The company is focusing on pure audio quality and performance, borrowing audiophile-grade tech in order to offer a wide frequency range and high fidelity listening experience.

The Sound

The FreeBuds Pro 2 are using unique dual driver technology, featuring two different drivers - a planar diaphragm driver that you normally see in high-end audiophile gear, and a more conventional, quad magnet dynamic driver. Both work together to deliver a very wide frequency range of 14Hz-48KHz. The planar driver takes care of high frequencies while the dynamic one is in charge of medium and low frequencies. Huawei has teamed up with French audio experts from Devialet to fine-tune this intriguing setup for the optimal acoustic performance.

Alongside this pure hardware innovation there’s a new Triple Adaptive EQ onboard. This technology scans your ear canal repeatedly to offer the best possible acoustics, tailored to your ear geometry. This adaptive tech can also account for any change in posture while listening, earbuds moving around in your ear, etc.

The Noise

The FreeBuds Pro 2 earbuds feature active noise canceling technology (Dynamic ANC 2.0) that Huawei labels as “industry leading.” The triple mic system boosts the ANC (active noise canceling) level by 15% compared to the previous model, and there’s also a neural network involved.

The Battery

Huawei has managed to shrink the size of the new FreeBuds Pro 2 and also shed some weight off, compared to the previous version but this doesn’t come at the cost of battery life. HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 will be available in the UK from 6th July (RRP: £169.99) from the Huawei Store and selected retailers, including Amazon, AO and Very.
