HUAWEI FreeBuds 5
Description：
HUAWEI FreeBuds 5 has been crafted to provide an ultimate level of comfort, thanks to their breathable open-fit design, fine-tuned by tens of thousands of ergonomic simulations. With two magnetic circuits and bass turbo technology, these earbuds pack even more punch, and produce robust bass that drops as low as 16 Hz. HWA and Hi-Res Certified sound makes every note ever faithful. Charging the earbuds in the case for 5 minutes allows you to listen uninterrupted for up to 2 hours. And the earbuds support 30 hours of listening with multiple charges in the case.
- Seamless Curves for Optimal Fit1 | HUAWEI FreeBuds 5 has been crafted to provide an ultimate level of comfort, thanks to their breathable open-fit design, fine-tuned by tens of thousands of ergonomic simulations.
- Ultra Magnetic Driver with Punchy Bass | HUAWEI FreeBuds 5 is 30%2 more sensitive at low frequencies than HUAWEI FreeBuds 4, and produces robust bass that drops as low as 16 Hz3. These earbuds pack even more punch, by boosting airflow while reducing the resistance the diaphragm experiences during vibrations, thanks to proprietary tech and a custom tube.
- Ultra Wide Frequency Adaptive EQ | HUAWEI FreeBuds 5 adjusts the sound by accounting for fit, wearing status, and volume level — all the way from 100 Hz to 2000 Hz4 — to provide a personalised listening experience full of passion and pizzazz.
- HWA and Hi-Res Certified | HUAWEI FreeBuds 5 supports blazing-high transmissions of up to 990 kbps, thanks to LDAC™ high-resolution codec5 support, as well as Hi-Res and HWA Audio Wireless certifications.
- AI Call Noise Cancellation | The earbuds come with three microphones and a deep neural network (DNN) algorithm to enhance your voice and reduce background chatter, so that every call is as clear as can be.
- Super Charge and Long Battery Life6 | Charging the earbuds in the case for 5 minutes allows you to listen uninterrupted for up to 2 hours7. The earbuds support up to 5 hours of listening on a full charge, and up to 30 hours of listening, with multiple charges in the case7.
