Huawei releases FreeClip 2 - TWS headphones with AI assistant and strange design
Huawei has officially unveiled FreeClip 2, the second generation of its open TWS headphones with a unique "C-bridge" design. The new product retains its familiar unusual shape, but is 15% lighter and 9% more compact. Each earbud weighs only 4.4 g, making them almost invisible when worn.
AI Ear Assistant - FreeClip 2 is the first to feature an AI audio assistant that adapts the sound depending on how the earbud is positioned in the ear. The system automatically recognises which ear the earbud is in and optimises the audio accordingly. You can ask Celia Assistant questions, and the headphones can also translate conversations. The system can also muffle ambient noise, amplify the human voice, turn down the volume in a quiet environment, etc. You can accept or reject calls with a nod of the head.
