Huawei Freebuds Pro Unboxing and First Impressions

Sounds as good as it looks

Published

November 26, 2020

Huawei has been killing it in the personal audio department and everyone should really start paying attention. Adding to the lineup is the Huawei Freebuds Pro. It’s their answer of sorts to the likes of the AirPods Pro and the Sony WF-1000XM3.

This is what the front of the box looks like. It’s a pretty tiny box.

A closer look shows the name of the product in gold.

Flip it over and you’ll see some highlighted features.

Take out the top cover and you’re immediately greeted by the Freebuds Pro.

Here’s a look without the plastic covering.

It’s a little tricky to take out but underneath all that is the USB to USB-C Cable and a box.

Pull out the cable and the box and you get this.

Here’s a closer look at the cable.

And here are extra soft silicone plugs so you can find the perfect fit for your ears.

Now, let’s go back to the Freebuds Pro. Here’s the back of the charging case with the Huawei text.

You flip it over to open it and reveal the earbuds.

The buds are tinier — the tiniest they’ve released over the past year.

On the bottom of the case is the USB-C port.

And on its right side is the bluetooth pairing button.

But if you simply open the case next to a Huawei phone — here it’s the Huawei Mate 40 — it’ll immediately detect it and ask to pair.

When you press connect, it’ll show you right away how to operate the Freebuds Pro.

After that, it’ll show you the battery life of each Freebud Pro and the case.

As mentioned earlier, in terms of the size of the stem, it’s a lot smaller than the previous two releases.

The cases also vary in shape and size.

Here’s what they look like when worn.

First impressions

I’ve only had the Freebuds Pro for a little over 24 hours at the time of writing. I’ve since used it on a video call meeting and to listen to the Eyes Wide Open album by TWICE.

So far, it’s performing exactly as advertised. It carries over the noise-cancellation excellence from the Freebuds 3 and Freebuds 3i. In fact, the Freebuds Pro combines the best practices of the aforementioned devices thanks to a number of engineering and design choices.

Sound quality is also right around what I expected based on my previous experiences with other Huawei audio products. It’s certainly two steps above the Freebuds 3i in terms of overall sound quality.

Price and availability

In the Philippines, it retails for PhP 7,999 — around PhP 1,000 cheaper than the launch price of the Freebuds 3 (PhP 8,990).

Pre-order period is from November 27 to December 3. If you pre-order you’ll get freebies worth PhP 3,989.

Huawei Band 4 — PhP 1,890
Entertainment Gift Package — PhP 2,099
