Huawei has announced the imminent premiere of the new FreeBuds 5 wireless headphones: the device will be presented on March 23 as part of a big event, the highlight of which will be the latest flagship Huawei P60 and P60 Pro.

Huawei FreeBuds 5 has already been shown in a branded charging case from all sides, as well as in a live photo. An unusual drop-shaped shape attracts attention: here the “leg” seems to flow down from the earpiece body itself. The color is also unusual – silver.

There are no device characteristics, but FreeBuds 5 is credited with at least improved autonomy relative to the previous model.

Nothing is preparing to introduce the second generation of its first product. Headphones Nothing Ear (2) will be presented on March 22, but today the company has shared some details.

For example, it became known that the headphones will support the LHDC 5.0 codec, which should have a positive effect on sound quality. In addition, the novelty will be protected from moisture and dust (IP54).

The head of the company also said that the team working on the new model has 700 people, which is 30% more than during the development of Ear (1). The headphones were tested on over 120 different phone and laptop models, which is 52% more than in the case of the first model.

The premiere of Xiaomi Buds 4 Pro wireless headphones took place in China in August last year, now they have finally reached Europe. But the price at the same time doubled: if in China at the start of sales for the device they asked for $ 150, then the price in Europe is 250 euros.

The characteristics of the European version are the same as those of the Chinese version. The headphones are equipped with 11 mm speakers, there is active noise reduction with a “transparency” mode, support for LDAC, SBC, AAC and LHDC 4.0, IP54 protection. Autonomy on a single charge is up to 9 hours, but with the battery case, the maximum autonomy reaches 38 hours.
