At its Reno6 series launch conference today, OPPO added a new TWS headset in its Enco Free series. The new model called the ENCO Free2 brings in significant upgrades like Active Noise Cancellation up to 42dB and audio tuning by DYNAUDIO. This would make it the second OPPO product after the OPPO ENCO X, to be tuned by the popular Danish audio company.

The OPPO Enco Free2 brings in an in-ear design, unlike the semi-open design of its predecessor. The previous model wasn’t particularly great at noise isolation but with an in-ear design and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), the Free2 solves this problem. In fact, Noise Cancellation is a big highlight of the new earbuds. OPPO has used a 3-core chip to ensure excellent ANC and claims the earbuds can block noise up to 42dB — one of the highest noise isolation levels for earbuds in its price range. OPPO further adds that the Free2 should offer considerable isolation from wind noise as well.

It’s also good to see that OPPO is bringing DYNAUDIO tuning to the cheaper ‘Free’ series. However, unlike the Enco X which had the DYNAUDIO logo on its charging case, this branding is nowhere to be seen on the Free2’s box or case. That said, with the Danish audio company tuning the earbuds, we can expect better audio than its predecessor.

The Enco Free2 also upgrades its Ingress Protection. The earbuds are IP54 certified, unlike the Enco Free which was just IPX4 rated. So the new earbuds should be safe for your routine beach outings as well.

Other features of the new earbuds include a personalized listening technology which OPPO claims allows customization of the sound according to your hearing levels, transparency mode (same as other earbuds with ANC), 42ms low latency, and remote photo capture, VLOG shoot mode (double click the earbud to activate the shutter). Note that the remote capture mode is currently only available on the new OPPO Reno6 series and will be rolled out to more smartphones in the coming weeks.

The Enco Free2 promises up to 4.5 hours of audio playback with ANC turned on, and up to 6.5 hours without ANC. The charging case will further add a playback time of up to 30 hours.

The new OPPO Enco Free2 will go on sale in China from June 5 for 599 yuan (~$94) which is a good 100 yuan (~$16) cheaper than its predecessor’s launch price back in 2019!
