ShareKUWAIT: Thinking of buying a new pair of wireless earphones? With so many options out there, you might be forgiven if you just do not know which one to get. Well, there are a couple of key factors to consider before buying a new pair of premium earphones, ie quality of sound, noise cancellation, etc. With this in mind, let's put the flagship earbuds to the test; Huawei's latest high-end earbuds, the HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2. Read on to find out why we think the HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 is the better choice.
Sound quality
When buying a pair of premium earbuds, sound quality should be your first priority. In that regard, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 scores high. It features a unique 'Ultra-hearing True Sound Dual Driver' sound system that intelligently coordinates two drivers for excellent audio performance. The earbuds use a planar diaphragm for bright and precise treble and overtones and a quad-magnet dynamic driver for medium and lower frequencies to deliver punchier bass. The bass goes down to 14Hz, with treble going up to 48Khz, far beyond the range of perception of human ears.
These earbuds also use 'Triple Adaptive EQ' technology, which can automatically tune audio according to your ear canal structure, wearing posture and volume level in real-time.On top of that, support for LDAC(tm) high-resolution audio codec protocol effectively preserves details in the audio with less deterioration and gives you a high-fidelity sound.
Also, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 is co-engineered with 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 Huawei and Devialet have worked together to create a sound signature with surging bass, and detailed, pure sound quality.
Active noise cancellation
The ANC on HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 is just extraordinary. They have a wide frequency range of noise cancellation within a normal living environment ranging between 50Hz and 3000Hz. Its 'Triple Mic ANC System' boosts the average ANC depth by a whopping 15% compared to its predecessor. On top of that, the 'Intelligent Dynamic ANC 2.0' selects the best noise cancellation mode based on the surroundings.
Even on flights, the Intelligent Dynamic ANC 2.0 eliminates the roaring aircraft engine noises with the exclusive aircraft noise cancellation curve. Compared to the industry standard single microphone systems for ambient noise pick-up, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2's dual outward-facing microphone design is much superior.
Call voice quality
HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 ensures clear, quiet calls wherever you are. It uses a 4-Mic Call Noise Cancellation system combined with a Huawei-exclusive deep neural network (DNN) noise cancellation algorithm. These earbuds can accurately pick up human voices while filtering out noise. Thanks to the new hidden wind-proof design industry-leading intelligent wind-noise cancellation algorithm, these earbuds can effectively reduce wind noises during running or riding bikes. Both caller and receiver can experience crystal clear calls. The earbuds also eliminates ambient noise for users to hear clearly, and picks up human voices accurately in a noisy environment for the receiver.
Our verdict
HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro 2 win out when you consider all the features together including sound quality. The best part is that it supports a dual connection with Huawei all-scenario devices, including smartphones, tablets, PCs and watches, and with Android, iOS and Windows smart systems.
