[@CharlBrazle]

By far the best reviews on KZbin. Really like the mic tests which is of my concern when looking for new ones!

[@SibTiger33]

Picked this up today. The mic quality improvement is amazing. Although I didn't see much anc improvement

[@Nandox7]

Did you had te Pro 2? Mic improvement would be the reason for me to change from the Pro 2.

[@andreayaquil]

@SibTiger33 Did you notice any gesture delay on the left earbud? Like if you change the volume (by swiping the earbuds' stem) on the left earbud, there's a ~0.5ms delay before the 'beeping sound' prompts, compared to when adjusting the volume on the right earbud where the beeping sound instantly prompts?

[@SibTiger33]

​@@andreayaquilgood question. Yes there is a delay but mostly with volume gestures. The first swipe is slow then subsequent swipes are fine. Pinch gestures work fine for me. A delay but nothing major

[@darpanjain]

how is the music quality and battery now that you have spent six months with them. Would you suggest buying these or technics (fi you know about them?)

[@stianjarnass]

Great review 👏. I'm so happy with my pro 2's. I can use the lawn mower without playing too loud 👏. And that silver color is beautiful 🫶

[@ZotmundSzele]

Troy, I've had the Freebuds Pro 2 since they were released and I praised them over everything. There has been literally nothing this feature- and soundrich than these buds. I'm still testing the Freebuds Pro 3 but I am not sure anything has been or could be improved at all. They feel a tad bit more comfortable.

[@BulHus241]

How do they compare against the sony wf 1000xm5 and wich one will you personally choose🤔 because on paper they have exact same specs. Amazing review btw❤️❤️

[@uditbandung]

Great analysis. I have a pair of old earbuds and worn out headphones which both are being used quite heavily. Earbuds is to accompany my smartphone, while headphones is to watch my smart TV mainly. I'm thinking to replace both of them with just one good quality earbuds, once I seriously consider is this huawei freebuds pro 3. Questions: 1. Have you tested huawei freebuds pro 3 with smart TV e.g. Samsung, LG, Sony, etc.? 2. If you have done so, what's the result? 3. Is it recommended to use or link freebuds with smart TV? Thanks.

[@SibTiger33]

Another thing to keep in mind is that Huawei do an excellent job supporting their buds. Unlike some manufacturers

[@justsmile2636]

Yes, I have Buds Pro 2, and it's amazing.. I'm going to 3 now ❤..

[@gantenbeinable]

I also have the pro 2. They are still so good. I am excited to the point when Huawei will bring out the first buds with nearlink technology. At that point I will upgrade for sure.

[@ZotmundSzele]

I'm curious what you think. I also have the Freebuds Pro 2 but I am not sure there a huge upgrade here. Either the Buds 2 are literally perfrect already or there is really no improvement. They feel a little lighter after a few days but that's it. The Devilate EQ setting is actually amazing on the 2. Still testing, but I am not decided yet.

[@Harryd06]

Yeah I owned the Og ones too, they were so good I never thought earphones could ever sound so good. Then lost them so I bought the 2s they’re good, but battery’s crap

[@GeoT91]

Do they hold its own compared to Sony WF-1000XM earbuds?

[@ercan5624]

I have been using Sony WI-XB 400 for years and I wonder if it is worth to change to this for music quality

[@christiansaputra4699]

Could you please compare Huawei Freebuds pro 3 with Jabra Elite 10? Which is better to purchase between these two. FYI, I am using Huawei ecosystem, from laptop, tablet, smartphone, & smart watch... I'm planning to buy either Jabra Elite 10 or freebuds pro 3 to replace my Freebuds pro (1st edition). Thx u so much...

[@danr3447]

How is the awareness mode compared to airpods pro 2?

[@Engineer20201]

thanks for the video. I have the 1st gen of these earbuds and they were okay in terms of noise cancellation. Which one is better for phone calls: the Freebuds Pro 3 or the AirPods pro 2? Also, how do they compare to the Bose QuietComfort Ultra? I want to get an excellent noise cancellation so I'm hesitated between the Huwaie and the Bose.

[@nAcolz]

If you care about call quality at all, skip the Bose completely

[@nAcolz]

I wonder why the spatial audio is locked to the Huawei phones

[@Jeppoy04]

Can i use all latest features on my mate50pro????

[@Engineer20201]

Thanks for the review. Please compare it to airpods pro 3 and latest Bose Sony

[@eyadyahia.]

does it make pop up when open box with samsung phones ?

[@hamadalmutairi97]

Can't wait for the FreeBuds Pro 3 to launch in Kuwait.

[@davidolson6769]

Just purchased and noticed your phone application is much different than mine, for example I can't see the connection center or HD spacial

[@Michael-qg6sg]

Can't wait for mine to be delivered in 9 hours or so 🥰

Hi mate. How is the mic comparing to airpods. Thanks

[@ed5399]

Would you reccomend them over Sony linkbuds S?

[@strumbi217]

Still waitnih for them to come to Croatia

[@adithyaherath2000]

You know i'm a Sony fan, but i think i like these. Yes, you are on point troy. Because of that stem, it's really easy to use

[@gilroypro1010]

Are the Pro 3 louder than the Pro 2 or about the same volume DB?

[@WhatGear]

I wish could tell you. I didn’t get to test the Freebuds pro 2 unfortunately. 😔

[@SibTiger33]

Not louder

[@mohammadbamyani5256]

I think Huawei freebuds 3 pro is better than Sony, because I used Samsung buds pro beats pro plus beats fit pro non off them are good as good as Huawei. 100 hundreds percent Huawei is better.

[@jackcooper021]

Is there any difference between LDAC y L2HC?

[@WhatGear]

To me…I noticed a difference when switching

[@jackcooper021]

@@WhatGear Ok, but big difference or just a little?? (In 16 bit 44.1khz i mean)

[@ZotmundSzele]

L2HC is only available with Huawei Devices, as one of the differences. I think LDAC beats them all.

[@jackcooper021]

@@ZotmundSzele l2hc maybe better, it hits 1411kbps

[@ArthurZakaryan23]

6 1/2 hours with ANC off is not great at all. I'm easily getting over 8 hours with ANC off with my Pixel Buds Pro, no way I will get another pair of earbuds that can't at least match that if not exceed it especially at this pricepoint. Shame cause I do like the look and features of this quite a bit.

[@gantenbeinable]

Something to mention is that the charging case can charge extremely fast! ..And it will extend it up to 31 hours.

[@valk3359]

Tell me when you will use full 8 hours of listening. 6,5h is enough with the charging speed that these earbuds have

[@ArthurZakaryan23]

@@valk3359 I use my earbuds at work pretty much the whole day, that's a 9 hour day. My Pixel Buds A series never made it to 5 and when the Buds Pro came out with much longer battery life, that was my main reason for getting it and it hasn't disappointed. The Sony's cost too much and Master & Dynamic also are too much so I'll continue using the Buds Pro until something better for this pricepoint comes out.

[@kostasmira2933]

Unfortunately they gave up to freebuds studio.

[@jasvirsingh-ge6gp]

Got yesterday but sad to see there is no option showing of spatial audio and sound quality option on iphone 😢

it only work for huawei phones?

[@nAcolz]

No, works on all devices

[@OcelotSF]

Not an unboxing cuz it has been opened before...

[@theredbar-cross8515]

The H in Huawei is not silent. I really have no idea how this bizarre WAH-WAY pronunciation became a thing. It's "Hua - way", the H is not only not silent, it's where the stress on the word lies. I know some people claim that WAH-WAY is the Cantonese pronunciation, but this is also wrong. In Cantonese, it's WAH-WHY. And Cantonese wouldn't be appropriate either since the company is based in Hangzhou, China, a place that speaks Mandarin. Source: Mandarin is my native language.

[@auspiciouscloud8786]

@@WhatGear Huawei is an arm of the CCP. The CCP has vowed to “disappear” anyone, anywhere, that opposes their leadership. Huawei is a national security threat because the data it gathers from users is stored in CCP databases and they can use this personal, biometric data against any country or person who uses it. The CCP is a real threat and the last thing we want to do is give them free data. Thank you for asking. I really like your content overall. ❤️ TicTok is also Huawei and Ring video also is stored in China. To me it is like watching the story of Hansel and Grettle being lured by the wicked witch with the candy house.
