HUAWEI FreeArc open-ear wireless earbuds launched Global with 17 × 12mm drivers, up to 28Hr battery life
HUAWEI has officially launched its first open-ear earbuds, the HUAWEI FreeArc, alongside the Mate XT ULTIMATE DESIGN tri-fold smartphone, further expanding its premium lineup for global markets.
Ergonomic & Secure Fit -
The C-bridge ergonomic design is based on studies of over 10,000 ear shapes, ensuring a pressure-free and secure fit. The 0.7mm Ni-Ti alloy frame is lightweight, flexible, and durable, effortlessly adapting to different ear structures. Designed for active users, the 140° triangle support and gravity balance system keep the earbuds in place during workouts or daily use.
Comfort & Durability -
The FreeArc earbuds are 81.5% covered in soft, skin-friendly liquid silicone, certified by the SGS Smart Green Medal, ensuring long-lasting comfort. As HUAWEI’s first IP57-rated earbuds, they offer resistance to water, sweat, and dust, making them ideal for outdoor and fitness activities.
Premium Sound & Noise Cancellation -
Equipped with 17 × 12mm drivers, the earbuds deliver deep bass, clear vocals, and crisp highs. The reverse sound wave system minimizes audio leakage for a more private listening experience. For crystal-clear calls, a dual-mic setup with triple noise cancellation effectively reduces background noise, even in noisy environments.
Connectivity & Battery Life -
The FreeArc earbuds support Bluetooth v5.2, offering a stable connection up to 400 meters outdoors or 100 square meters indoors. With up to 28 hours of battery life (7 hours per charge), they also feature fast charging, delivering 3 extra hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge.
Intuitive Touch Controls -
Users can control their audio and calls with simple gestures:
- Swipe – Adjust volume
- Double-tap – Play/pause music or answer/end calls
- Triple-tap – Skip tracks
- Press and hold – Reject calls
Smart Features & Compatibility -
The FreeArc earbuds support dual-device connections and audio sharing. Users can personalize settings via the AI Life app (Android) or HUAWEI Audio Connect (iOS). Some features, like instant pairing pop-up, require HUAWEI devices running EMUI 10.0+.
