Huawei Innovative New FreeClip Earbuds Launches in SA: Price Revealed

Huawei’s latest audio product called the FreeClip — a pair of earbuds with an open ear design that allows the earbuds to sit in your ears without blocking your ear-canal — has launched in South Africa.

The FreeClip combines wireless audio and a chic design in a versatile device, that could easily be mistaken for jewellery. Thanks to the innovative C-bridge design which acts as the earbuds’ clip, they fit snugly along the curvature of the ear. The C-bridge design is also the connector between the acoustic and battery units.

The FreeClip’s design is based on data from research done on the ears of over 10,000 people resulting in a refined micron-level ergonomic design that has undergone over 25,000 reliability tests. The result is that the earbuds stay in place even during the most intense physical activities.

The FreeClip’s open-ear listening technology delivers clear and immersive sound without blocking ambient noise. To minimise sound leakage and ensure privacy, the earbuds use a reverse sound wave system that intelligently adjusts the volume and cancels the sound waves that “leak” out of the earbuds.

The earbuds come in a shell-shaped charging case that has a pearlescent sheen and a smooth stone-like texture, offering a comfortable grip and clean finish. With the charging case, the FreeClip boasts a total music playback time of 36 hours. If the battery runs low, users can quickly charge the earbuds for 10 minutes and enjoy three hours of listening.

The Huawei FreeClip is priced at R3,999 and includes the earbuds, a charging case, and USB-C charging cable.
