Huawei FreeClips Review: New Form Factor For Wireless Earbuds

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 15 тра 2024
  • The Huawei FreeClips are new open-ear design earbuds from Huawei and they are among the most comfortable earbuds I've tried, because it actually doesn't enter or touch the ear canal at all. The FreeClips last on eight hours on a single charge, are IP54 water and dust resistant, and the case supports wireless charging.
    I like the open ear design because my ear canals are often sensitive. And I can wear the Huawei FreeClips when cycling and be aware of my surroundings.

    I've seen similar earbuds on TikTok before these launched and already wanted to try them. My head and my skull are a shame and my left ear cannot hold any earphones in it, it always falls out, but looking at the design of this kind of earphones, well it can be a nice solution for me.

  • @ArthurZakaryan23
    @ArthurZakaryan23 5 місяців тому

    Ben these are my favorite kind of earbuds. I too have never liked the traditional style with the silicone ear tips that have to be pressed into your ear canals and like you I can't leave them in for too long without feeling the need to take them out cause they make my ear itchy.
    I'm not sure if you've heard of Oladance but as far as I know they are one of the first ones with this clip or resting on your ear style earphones and sure they have all the drawbacks like you mentioned, mainly sound quality, bass, isn't as good as the normal Airpods Pro style for instance but when I am outside walking which is one of the places I usually like to wear earbuds, I want to hear all my surroundings. Walking in LA and being closed off to traffic, you're just asking to be run over lol. I have Oladance's OWS2, they also have a newer OWS Pro which is a bit slimmer, a bit more comfortable but at the cost of slightly less battery life but still quite a bit more than these Huawei's.
    They are also currently running a Kickstarter for their latest model the OWS Sports which is very similar to the OWS Pro in design but has a fixed band behind the neck for active users since that's the demo for that model. I would highly suggest checking them out if you didn't know about them before.

    Stays on
    great for indoor
    it fits anyone
    comfortable
    Long battery Life
    Con
    Too expensive
    sound quality is dependent on the location
    it drowns in planes, trains etc.
    when on a phone call your background noise can be heard by the person you are speaking to
    kudos to Huawei for the first generation, I believe this product will get better from the second generation on, they will need to make some adjustments to the speaker compartment, they might have noise cancellation when making a phone call ETC..

    I think (just think) these will be good for kids.. maybe these clips could help keep their hearing good a bit longer.

    Is there a market for this stuff? Samsung tried open ear earbuds with the buds live (beans), but they didn't sell

      That's unfortunate, I love the beans, I'm on my second set and will continue to find discounted ones if I loose this pair. I know they don't fit well for everyone though.

      the beans had a wearing learning curve and terrible fit on some people. I dont think these fit the exact same category because they're like a weird earring that plays music outside your ear and not inside it.
