Honor has officially introduced its latest audio product in China, the Honor Earbuds Clip-On Pro. Priced at 599 yuan ($88), the new earbuds lean into the growing trend of open-ear audio, opting for a cuff-like design that attaches to the outside of the ear rather than sitting inside the ear canal.
Honor Earbuds Clip-On Pro Specifications
In terms of aesthetics, the Earbuds Clip-On Pro features a C-shaped chassis built around an aerospace-grade nickel-titanium memory wire. This three-point support structure is designed to adapt to various ear shapes and distribute weight evenly, keeping the buds secure during workouts without applying excessive pressure. Available in Prism Black and Rose Gold, the earbuds feature polished metallic accents and come with an IP55 rating for dust and water resistance.
On the audio front, the Earbuds Clip-On Pro are equipped with 10.8mm dual-magnetic titanium-coated drivers. They support the LHDC 5.0 codec and carry a Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification for high-quality playback. Because open-ear designs are naturally prone to sound leakage, Honor has included a reverse acoustic system to help keep your audio private in public spaces.
For voice calls, the earbuds use a triple-microphone setup, two air-conduction mics and one bone-conduction VPU, paired with AI noise reduction. Honor claims this system can filter out wind noise at speeds up to 9 meters per second.
The earbuds also feature Honor’s software features. They integrate directly with the YOYO voice assistant, which can be triggered via touch or voice commands. The companion software supports real-time dual-ear translation, automatic transcription, and smart summarization. The assistant can also read out real-time notifications so users don’t have to constantly check their phone screens.
For connectivity, the earbuds use Bluetooth 5.4 and support dual-device pairing across Android, iOS, and HarmonyOS devices, allowing you to seamlessly switch between a phone and a laptop. They also feature automatic wear detection and intelligent left/right channel recognition, meaning you don’t have to check which bud goes on which ear before putting them on.
Coming to the battery life, Honor says the 56mAh batteries in the earbuds can provide up to 11 hours of standalone playback with the voice wake-up feature disabled. The 500mAh pebble-shaped charging case extends that total to 47 hours. Recharging the buds takes about 50 minutes, while the USB-C case itself tops up in just over an hour.
Alongside the new earbuds, Honor also unveiled the Honor 600 series smartphones, the Watch 6 Plus smartwatch, and the Honor Pad 20 tablet.
