On the 15th of October, Huawei’s sub-brand, Honor announced a pair of wireless earphones in its home country, China which is called the Honor xSport PRO. As the “xSport” name suggests, the wireless earphones have a rugged design with a braided cable and Aluminum earbuds which are safeguarded via soft silicone sleeve.

Honor xSport PRO Design and Features

The Honor xSport Pro have a neckband style design, therefore, when not in use the earbuds can be removed from the ears and allowed to rest around the chest region. Like most other neckband style headphones, they also have a magnetic back which can be used to keep the earbuds together when in the rest position.

The earmuffs/earbuds are made out of Aluminium and their shape resembles Apple’s AirPods that sit in the outer ear. However, Honor xSport PRO earbuds are covered with soft silicone sleeves which would make them fit snugly preventing them from falling out unintentionally while working out or performing rigorous physical activities.

The Honor xSport PRO weighs 25 grams which evenly distributed in its two halves. Its right side houses the microphone pinhole, volume rockers, play pause button and thoughtfully designed USB C male charging port which joins the two halves of the wireless earphones. On the other hand, the left side is free from any ports or openings and it is assumed to accommodate the 120 mAh battery that powers the device.

The previously mentioned USB C port can be used to charge its inbuilt battery by plugging it into the charging port of any smartphone with type of connector or a PD (Power Delivery) type charger. According to the company website, the Honor xSport PRO takes about 70 minutes to charge and they can offer a battery backup of 12 hours on medium volume.

The Honor xSport PRO is equipped with Bluetooth 5.0 technology and it offers a working range of 10 metres. Lastly, the pair of wireless earphones is IP55 rated which makes it both dust and water-resistant.

Honor xSport PRO Price, Colours are Availability

The Honor xSport PRO wireless earphones are offered in two gradient colour options which include Enchanting Red (Red/Black) and Seagull Ash (Silver/Black). The latest audio accessory from Honor is currently available for pre-order on VMall and these users can purchase it on the 22nd of October at a price of 399 Yuan.

To wrap things up, the Honor xSport PRO seems like a worthy pair of budget wireless earphones. Its only shortfalling we feel is the 70 min long charging time. Having said that, most offerings in this range do not support fast charging, therefore, Honor just might get away with it without many consumers complaining about the absence of this feature.
