Huawei FreeLace is the wireless earphones that I’ve been using for the past couple of months. Here is our long-term review.

DESIGN, COMFORT, BATTERY LIFE

The earphones cost about $100 meaning one would expect premium design and build quality.

The headset uses high-grade “Memory Metal Cable” that feels sturdy, it’s tangle-free and it has always felt nice on my neck.

I like that the earbuds have magnets, so you can attach them to each other. The built-in Hall magnetic sensor can detect whether the headphones are in use. You can attach to end the connection for longer battery life. And, when you separate, it will reconnect and get you back to your music.

One of the highlights – you can detach the right earphone from the controller and you will find USB-C plug for charging. In fact, you can plug the earphones to the phone USB-C port and the phone will act as a power bank. It’s a pretty neat feature to have. Further, the earphones support HUAWEI HiPair technology. Once plugged in the phone, the FreeLace can be paired automatically.

Battery life has been great. I could easily achieve 18 hours of music playback (Huawei’s official claim). The device also supports fast charging.

Just 5 mins of charging using your phone (I used the P30 Pro) will give you 4 hours of music playback.

SOUND QUALITY

The Freelace uses 9.2 mm dynamic driver unit which ensures great sound quality. The sound is deep, crisp, clear and there is plenty of bass. Really premium sound experience.

OTHER FEATURES AND TEST NOTES

I am really impressed with the call quality as noise reduction has been really good. Also, Bluetooth has been working fine and the IPX5 rating assures that the device won’t break if you drop it into water.

CONCLUSIONS

Overall, I’m quite impressed with the Huawei Freelace. Sure, these are not the only earphones on the market but I found them to be really comfortable to wear, sound quality is really good, battery life is superb and USB-C charging/fast pairing with the phone is an innovative and useful feature to have.

The earphones have been my daily driver for the past couple of months and I will keep using them. Therefore, I can recommend them to check out.
