Huawei Freebuds 5i review: everything the 4i could do these can do better

 

The Huawei Freebuds 5i combine style with good sound and affordability

Solid design and build ; 28 hours of battery with the case ; Connect them to two devices at once ; Clear, crisp sound with ANC

Only 3 EQ modes in the app ; AI Life isn't on the Google Play Store ; The case can't be charged wirelessly

The Huawei Freebuds 5i look good, sound good and have lots of handy features like multipoint connectivity and ANC. The only problem is that the AI Life app isn't available on the Google Play Store, although you can download it from the Huawei App...

Huawei Freebuds 5i review: anything but basic

 

Active noise cancellation and hi-res Bluetooth codecs for under £100? The Huawei Freebuds 5i sound like a real bargain

Packed full of features ; Decent endurance

Sound quality merely OK for the money ; Wireless charging doesn’t make the cut

A very well-equipped pair of Bluetooth buds. They aren’t perfect, but the Freebuds 5i deliver decent active cancelling at a price that isn’t to be sniffed at.

Good price ; Active noise canceling ; Decent sound ; Lightweight and comfortable ; IP54 water and dust protection ; LDAC support ; Multipoint connection

Limited EQ settings ; Companion app needs to be sideloaded ; Plastic charging case feels a bit cheap

Huawei FreeBuds 5i review: Cheap ANC in-ear headphones that are big on sound!

 

Huawei presents the FreeBuds 5i, which are positioned in the mid-range market for less than $100. We reviewed the ANC in-ear headphones.

Good battery life ; Good price-to-performance ratio ; Above-average sound quality ; Good operation ; Dual Connect ; IP54 certification

Equalizer is missing ; ANC could be better ; No wireless charging ; Poor sound quality without the AI Life app

Huawei proved that its FreeBuds 5i ANC in-ear headphones, which cost just under €100, you do not necessarily have to spend a fortune to get good sound in your ears. The ANC in-ear headphones have improved in almost all aspects compared to its...
