Huawei FreeBuds 4 review
Huawei’s latest true-wireless earbuds sound great, but they have a few downsides that make them hard to recommend for most people. 0:36 – Design and comfort 1:37 – Controls 2:14 – Sound 3:18 – Noise cancellation 4:00 – Connectivity 4:50 – Calls 5:12 – Mic test 5:57 – Battery life and charging case 6:30 –…

I think apple knows those earbuds won’t have any impact on airpod sales, otherwise they would have already sued huawei for copying the design

They’re not AirPods. Not even close. Why settle for a fake when you can get the real thing?! 🤔🤷♂️

Why would you advertise a Chinese company with possible ties to the communist regime?

So much for promoting a free market. And shows how much Western propaganda has gotten to you.

Yea but you said they can fall out of your ears when being active. For $180, I don’t think that’s worth the purchase.

I had the 3 and can say, if the airpods fits you, then they do that too. Now I use galaxy buds pro with medium eartips (just for reference)

The battery isn’t enough, but knowing it’s sounds better than air pods, as a 1st gen buds is a good start. For sure the next gen (2/+/pro) would be better.. 👍🥷

It is not the 1st generation, and the Freebuds 3 and Pro are better and above all less expensive.

The Huawei Freebuds 4 or how to make a new product that is worse than its predecessors 🤦🏽♂️.
The Freebuds 3 and Pro remain better options and also cheaper.
ElyRO S

Worse….?
Rolex
June 21, 2021 at 9:43 pm
@ElyRO S yes, worse !
2 hours of battery life with ANC activated, 4 hours without, it’s worse than on the old models and it costs more, for what reasons?
ElyRO S
June 21, 2021 at 9:58 pm
@Rolex battery is everything?
Multipoint in 2021 is a must, does not matter? Earphones quality is just battery dimension for you? 🤣🤣😁 sound quality, microphone quality does not matter?
Anyway, 2,5h because ANC works much much better than freebuds 3…. That’s why. Not only that, but ANC is not necessary all the time…
Rolex
June 21, 2021 at 10:19 pm
@ElyRO S indeed the battery is not everything.
But what is the point of having a new car that goes a little faster than the old one but which on the other hand goes much less far?
The mics are nothing better than the Freebuds 3 and Pro, they have been ” upgraded ” just for the ANC and not for phone calls.
If we really want ANC, we take intras, and Freebuds Pro are also multipoint by the way.

May I suggest Creative’s Outlier Air V2? Those are a great option as well.

Vol. control ON the devices are something I wish the Galaxy Buds had. The style isn’t conducive to it – No long poles – but still.

Why create buds that cannot be used for intense activities? Doesn’t make sense thats lost sales for people who do more hard-core activities like jogging, going to the gym etc.

Jogging is considered hardcore?

I can’t help expecting a super affordable price for this one since I guess I’ve run across a similar one many times.

Cool review as usual! Nice buds but with Soundpeats & Oppo producing great but budget buds, these are overpriced. Pls check out the new Trueair+ or Enco Air. Thanks
